One of the liveliest corners of Carmel, Edwin’s combines live music with a flavorful menu of Asian fusion dishes rooted in the Philippines and Indonesia. This family-owned and operated spot always attracts a crowd to the bar, where guests can enjoy appetizers like satay and lumpia, with local wines and craft beers. The cozy dining room turns a meal into a group experience, with chef’s choice combo baskets and individual entrées like Balinese fried chicken and Singapore chili prawns.
