4 /5 Bruce S.: Carmel Plaza is a unique outdoor shopping center. They have three levels with high end retail shops, wine tasting, restaurants, various types of stores including Links Club sports bar & entertainment center where you can play simulator golf or practice golf.
Latest update, we attended Party at the Plaza on 5/30/25 and my wife and I had a great time! We bought VIP tickets so we got to enter 25 minutes early. There were really good food to try from multiple restaurants as well as various wines to try. The VIP Lounge was nice and had a really huge Chacuteri to eat and it was very good.
It got pretty crowded, and it was hard at times to walk around. There was live music and also a Mariachi band, and both were excellent.
