   Overall, just a great experience! The Sea Bass was excellent, great tastes! The Salmon was also great, prepared just right. Staff was attentive, Mike, the manager and Sal, the Server were there to assist and make us feel pampered. Well Done, we've been to Pacifica before and will certainly return. PS, the Tuesday Wine promotion was great.

   We dine at Pacifica every time we vaca in Palm Desert and this was our first time back in a few years… As in the past, it was a very fine dining experience. Our dishes were better than we remembered. The baked scallops were incredible. The filet and lobster tails, along with the Chilean Sea Bass were done to perfection. Making this evening even better, our server Jessica was great. She read the reservation notes and knew the occasion(s), made recommendations and ensured we did not not have to “ask” or “want” the entire time. We are already planning our next vaca and reservations.

   Food was great as was the service - very attentive server but not intrusive. Love that they offer "half portions" of some of their entrees. Special of the night, scallops in the shell like a "Rockefeller" style was superb! Only negative was a barking dog that should have been outside on the patio - very annoying.

   The food was amazing. Didn’t know they had a kids menu included desert. Our 4 year old grandson loved it! I had the shrimp pasta. But the big hit was the ahi tuna!

   Beautiful place, good service. Good cocktails. Food is average, nothing great. High price for what you get. This is my second time there but will probably not go there again for dinner as it is too high price for the meals they serve.

    If you look up the definition of fresh…a picture of this eatery should appear. Goodness, the food is amazing! The beginning sour dough bread is a meal in itself. They have full servings and half servings if all their entrees. It was so good we ate there two evenings in a row! The Mahi Mahi sits on a creamy corn salsa…unbelievably tasty! The lobster is tender and flavorful. The lettuce wedge is a beautiful beginning…but wait! Save room for dessert…the portions are large. You feel as though you are seated near a dock…the food is so fresh! Eat in or dine outside…a great date place or bring anyone…they will be impressed!

    Our waiter was friendly, helpful and available, however our entrees were served before we'd half finished soups. The table was too small to accommodate both so, disappointedly, soup bowls had to go. Would have appreciated more attention to our pace of eating.

    We celebrated my husband's birthday last night and everything was wonderful. This was our first time here and to the palm springs area. We sat outside and with the fan and mist it was pleasant. Our food was delicious and the seafood was fresh. Our drinks were also good. We will be back...

    This was a wonderful and warm experience from the start. Beautiful area to sit out with fans, lights and misters but just too hot. So were given a table right at the window so we could feel like we were outside. The hostess made us feel like friends. Our server Nicole was warm and friendly with a big smile. She was very timely and attentive. We had gone for Restaurant Week and their special menu. My husband had the Pacifica Caesar, Braised Short Ribs, and Pacifica's Ice Cream Pie. I had Pacifica's Mixed Greens, Sugar Spiced Salmon, and Raspberry Infused Creme Brule. The food was excellent. Every bite was tasty and fulfilling. I must comment on the creme brule as it was the best I have had. I've never had it so creamy. We really loved the experience and can't wait to go back.

    The salmon salad was tasty, but the salmon slice was too small for the $$$. The table was too close to the door and hot air was distracting whenever it opened which was too often.

    Portion on Sunset menu were cut in half, manager confirmed. The green beans were extremely salted, awful. The manager removed the two Sunset meals from our bill. She did give us the slice of ice cream cake for my birthday. Because of our experience with the food we will not be returning. We ate at Pacifica for many years but now with the half portions and the overly salted food we will not come back.

    The food was very good and we had a nice table outside - but the restaurant turns their misters off at 7:30 - and when the temperature is close o 90 degrees it gets hot fast!

    I live in the Bay Area, so I go to Pacifica whenever I visit Marriott's Shadowridge Resort. This visit I ordered the Suger Spiced Salmon on the Early Bird Menu. The salmon entree was excellent, but for the first time I did not like the Clam Chowder because the clams were chewy. I sent it back and got the Caesar Salad which was excellent. Even though we were the only ones in the dining room when we arrived, the pace of the meal was too slow. We ordered shortly after being seated, but it took 45 minutes for us to be served the main entree. We got the Ice Cream Pie for dessert, and I had to suggest to the manager to comp this due to some of the problems we had during our meal. It would have been great if the manager had done this without me asking him to comp our dessert. I recommend Pacifica as a great restaurant for seafood and the food and service is usually very good, but not so much for us this visit.

    It’s been a few years since we were last here, but decided to return since our friend was staying at Hotel Paseo, a three-minute walk away. The restaurant was very crowded on a Restaurant Week Saturday night and we were shown to our table 15 minutes late. In hindsight, it might have been better to sit outdoors on the terrace (abundant misters at work) rather than inside where the tables were closed together than I recalled. Our starters: baked oysters and two Caesar salads, the salads crisp and tasty, but nothing remarkable. My main course: the salmon, a filet sitting atop a circular cylinder of mashed potatoes with green beans — the entire plate was absolutely exceptional, the salmon mouth-smacking good with a deliciously succulent sauce, beautifully seasoned green beans and creamy potatoes. I had to restrain myself from picking up the plate and licking it clean. My husband selected the seafood pasta off the Restaurant Week menu and is still raving about it this morning. Scallops, shrimp, mussels and clams in abundance with al dente linguine in a delicious red broth. A major hit! Our friend had the twin lobster tails which he seemed to thoroughly enjoy though he claimed they were Australian and not the Atlantic he had expected. Just an exceptional experience, and before I finish, I have to give kudos to our server Winston, who was so very personable in the most unobtrusive way, friendly and attentive and ultimately professional in ensuring our satisfaction. You’ll be lucky if he is assigned to your table!
