MONTEREY, Calif. – Some tourists are complaining about a popular California restaurant's “no noisy children" policy, but the owner says the ban is not hurting his business.

A sign outside the Old Fisherman's Grotto clearly states: “no strollers, no high chairs, no booster chairs -- and children making noise are not allowed in the dining room.”

However, some tourists -- and children -- have been taken aback by the policy. That's because Fisherman's Wharf is one of the Monterey Peninsula's biggest tourist attractions.

"I think it's not fair because I think little kids deserve to go in there," one girl said.
