About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Pacific Catch is a WestCoast Fish House dedicated to delivering high quality sustainable seafood with a unique perspective. From the day we opened we've been mindful about where our ingredients come from and how to bring to life the vibrant flavors and feeling of the Pacific. It's our commitment to our guests to keep things interesting, innovative, wholesome and thoughtfully sourced. That's why we've formalized our relationship with the Monterey Bay Seafood Aquarium's Seafood Watch, James Beard Foundation's Smart Catch and the Surfrider Foundation by becoming a partner and bringing on a director of sustainability to help steward these efforts.

We will be following the most stringent protocols on cleaning, sanitization, social distancing, and protections for employee health including temperature taking and the use of protective masks and gloves.

    Another wonderful experience! On this occasion, we were celebrating our mother's birthday. The staff was friendly, considerate and attentive. Devin's genuinely friendly greeting with a smile was a great start. A big THANK YOU to Andrea for being so friendly and attentive to us, particularly to our Mother. You made her feel very special! Our meals were excellently prepared and flavorful. The Miso Black Cod and the Korean BBQ Steak & Ribs are our all time favorites. So good!! Our mom very much appreciated the complimentary delicious dessert for her birthday. She is already planning the next time she will dine there.

    Please, please, please dial back on the SALT in ceviche and poke. Great quality of food but way too salty and therefore unhealthy.

    Our server, Miriam L, did a great job! She is nice and attentive (but not tooo attentive). She has good moxie! The manager turned off the speakers in the back room where our group of eleven met, so we could visit all around the table, which is a big part of what we like. Everyone seemed to LOVE their food.

    I used to love Pacific Catch for their great salads with ahi and edamame and black rice, etc. tonight I was told they don’t serve them anymore :( The food they serve is OK, with portions that seem too big or too small. It’s a great disappointment.
