"As usual, we had a wonderful time at Pacific Catch. Having dined at all of their locations, I must admit, each has its own flavor.
This time, we went to Pacific Catch, for their Poke celebration, and were not disappointed. The selection was diverse, and reasonable. The only thing that could have improved our experience was with the "Poke 3-Ways." Two of them were excellent, one, I would have never ordered as it was reminiscent of plain tuna-fish salad. I would have been so much better, if we had been able to choose which 3 ways, we wanted to have.
My current feeling about Pacific Catch, is I will go back again, and again."

"Great food and the open air patio is nice most times, but it was so windy that their screens came close to hitting the heads of my guests once or twice. Seating for 5 was a little awkward too. Next time will probably ask to be seated inside for large groups or windy days. Prices are very reasonable for the food and location."

"Husband & I stopped for lunch today. He's not a big fish eater, but does enjoy fish and chips. He loved his entree and gave me a piece to try. The batter on the fish was light and crisp. The fish pieces were small, but we determined that the size enabled the cook to fry the fish until it was perfectly done.
I had the grilled salmon sandwich, which was very flavorful and perfectly cooked.
They are celebrating 10 years in this location and this week, they gave everyone a plate of sweet potato fries. My personal weakness and these were cooked perfectly!
Can't wait to go back. Wish there was a location in Walnut Creek area."

"My wife and I went there for dinner on recommendation of the food. We felt it was more of a lunch place really. We ordered appetizers and main courses. Service was 'swift', we received our main course half way through our appetizers so sent them back but as soon as we had finished they were brought back. We were in and out in about 55minutes! That's OK if you were having a pre - movie meal but not when you are out for dinner."

"Bustling on a Sunday night. We were grateful for having a reservation. Hostess was a little frazzled but made a huge effort to be cordial and helpful. Food was good, but not as fresh tasting as the Marina location of Pacific Catch."

"Wonderful experience. Attentive service and honored our request for a table by the fireplace.
Big change from our last visit when we were put near the kitchen flyway, and ignored by our waitress.
Food is always good and we are regulars. Thanks.

"Other than some delay being seated as the young gentleman at the front didn't seem to know how to use the computerized seating chart, we had a very nice Valentine's Day meal at one of our favorite local restaurants. We appreciate the healthy options on the menu, the fresh fish and seafood, as well as sushi, etc. We'll be back!"

"Always good food that is very tasty. Wish I'd had the rice bowl my friend had because it looked great and was huge. I always have the shrimp tacos here and they are yummy. Outside was a bit over cooked this time but the attentive but not pushy server made up for my overall experience. I will, of course, be back again for lunch."

"Bad table near kitchen and bar traffic. i thought that an open table reservation would have warranted a better seating.
waitress said she was tired. 80's rock - 'white wedding' - clashes with the atmosphere.

"Food was good; portions are a bit smaller than you might expect based on the descriptions - which is actually a refreshing change. Our server's attention was split between many activities, but other servers were quick to fill in when we needed or wanted something. The check came quickly when we were ready for it. We'd eat there again."
