"The poke at Pacific Catch is more Hawaiian-style than some of the other DIY bowls on this list - the fish is pre-marinated and served without extra toppings. They’ve got three different options: ahi with a sweet sesame-soy marinade, ahi with sriracha aioli, and yellowtail with white soy and ponzu, all of which come with thin, crispy wonton chips. You can also get the guaca-poke - the original ahi poke with guacamole and tortilla chips - or order your poke over rice. Their Marina location is also open for takeout. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

The 25 Best Child-Friendly Restaurants in San Francisco | Eater SF

"Designed to meet the needs of the whole family — some locations even welcome furry friends and serve booze — it’s no wonder this has become a mini-chain throughout the Bay Area. The Inner Sunset mainstay is across the street from Golden Gate Park when you need a break from the museums or want to grab takeout to eat in the park. Weave your way through strollers to get to indoor dining or enjoy the tiki-themed outdoor seating area. Kids can choose between fried food baskets, bowls, or sushi, and grownups can dine on all manners of seafood from poke to tacos. A second location in the Marina offers sidewalk and parklet seating." - Laura Smith Borrman

12 San Francisco Bars for a Rum-Filled Cheers | Eater

"What is San Francisco without its great seafood? Thanks to the rich Pacific waters, there’s nowhere better to enjoy the freshest fish, shellfish, and more. Pacific Catch, in the Inner Sunset, has a creative take on everything from poke bowls to ahi burgers and guajillo shrimp tacos. Just across from Golden Gate Park, it’s a great stop before or after a festival (or any of the park’s other incredible events). And there’s no better match for great seafood than an expertly made cocktail. Try their riff on the tiki classic Painkiller, made with BACARDÍ Ocho Rum, coconut, and orange." - Vox Creative

I was out for a walk and wanted fish and chips for lunch. I tried this place, and I definitely won't be back. Regardless of what they say about the fish being fresh daily, I find it very hard to believe. I've been in this business for a very long time. Try this place if you wish, but you may find somewhere else more satisfying.

We came here for lunch because we were looking for places that weren’t too far from the Golden Gate Bridge. I wished they had more food places within walking distance of the bridge, considering that you have to Uber everywhere in SF. We were seated right away in the bar area. We just did a walk in, no reservation. We ordered Hawaiian pork belly sliders, lobster roll, and wagyu cheeseburger. My only complaint is that the Hawaiian pork belly sliders only had 3 sliders yet it cost $15? Those appetizers should all be like $12 and below. It should not cost as much as an entree. The other two items were priced correctly. Service was alright, nothing really memorable. Hawaiian pork belly sliders were overpriced and the pork belly could have been more tender. I would want it to melt in my mouth so it was like a 3 out of 5. Just okay. The lobster roll was pretty tasty. The wagyu cheeseburger was cooked perfectly, about medium rare to medium. I don’t want it to be chewy. Those are a 5 out of 5. I did like that they gave us a lot of greens for the salad and coleslaw. It definitely made the meal more filling. This is overall a 3.5-4 star kind of place. Fix the appetizer prices and this can be a solid 4.

Visited for lunch on a Friday and got seated right away. Most of the staff was very friendly, except our waiter (who wasn't rude, but didn't have the best attitude). The food and drinks were delicious. We enjoyed sharing a couple of them since the portions were adequate. Would visit again!

Food was very good! Would've been excellent if the Salmon I asked to be cooked medium rare had not been cooked, medium. Still tasted wonderful, just a bit drier than I like. Mashed potatoes was very hot at first but both it and the grilled asparagus tasted great. My wife loved the Salmon bowl she ordered. And the service was excellent.

I really enjoyed their food. They have really good spicy fries which I tried for the first time with fish...you won't regret it! The jalapeño dip, everything you want!! The drinks, absolutely amazing!

I ordered from here this weekend. EXCELLENT service. I have dietary constraints for medical reasons and the server, Bri, was warm, friendly, and didn't make me feel embarassed in the slightest listing all the modifications I needed for my bowl (eg sub uncooked tofu for poke, sub brown rice for sushi rice, no dressing): EXCEPTIONAL SERVER. The other server who helped me, Jennifer, was nice as well. Also, the modifications were all done perfectly and the bowl nicely arranged. I ought to add also, delicious food and great value/portion size: I weighed it and it was over a pound!! Nice atmosphere too. Overall, 10/10 from a San Francisco local: I highly reccomend.

Group of friends went in for lunch around 2pm, was greeted by friendly staff and seated soon after. Everyone was very thorough here, and during the entire meal our waiter consistently came by to refill our waters. Our group has been to this restaurant a few times already, and it has never failed us. We tried some new items on the menu and they did not disappoint! The mixed catch almost served as a nice sample platter, allowing for a variety of seafood and dips. We definitely liked their chili-lime fries over the regular fries (and for non-spicy eaters like myself: don't worry, they're actually not spicy). We will definitely be coming back again soon!

This restaurant is located at a busy part of inner Sunset district. It was kind of hard to find parking around the restaurant. After driving around five minutes, we managed to get a parking spot in Golen Gate park. Once we entered the restaurant, the hostess greeted us and seated us right away. They do have an extensive menu and a full bar. We ordered the surf and turf , mixed grill, and iced tea. Our food came out in a timely manner . The steak was tender and juicy. The broccolini with big stalks were undercooked and they were hard to chew. The brussels were overcooked, dried, and were kind of burnt. The chimichurri sauce went well with the mixed grill. The iced tea was refreshing especially on a hot day.

Unfortunately, our experience at Pacific Catch in the Inner Sunset left much to be desired. While there were a couple of positives--like the fact that they let us order from the happy hour menu with less than 10 minutes left, and they did check back on us a few times--it didn't make up for the issues we encountered. We were seated outdoors because the hostess informed us we had to, which felt limiting, but that was just the start. When I asked our server what the difference was between the guaca-poke appetizer and the regular poke appetizer, his dismissive response of "one has guaca and one doesn't" was unhelpful and made me feel like I had asked a dumb question. Customer service should include providing better details, and this definitely wasn't it. The order process was equally frustrating. Our server didn't bother to repeat our order back to us, and despite using an electronic device at the table to submit the order, he still got it wrong. We received only 3 fish tacos instead of 4, and he completely forgot our sushi roll. It took us flagging down another server to follow up on the missing items. Meanwhile, the original server could be seen helping other tables inside, but no one informed us that someone else would be handling our table. The lack of communication and attention was really disappointing. While they made some effort to accommodate us during happy hour, the overall experience felt careless and disorganized. It's hard to enjoy a meal when you're left chasing after your order and feeling like an afterthought. Sadly, I can't recommend Pacific Catch based on this visit.

Pacific catch is a favorite restaurant of mine just around the corner from my home in the inner sunset district of San Francisco. The ambience of the restaurant is a modern urban take on a Japanese fish house. When I was dining in it was about 8 at night. The service was pretty slow (like I understand you close at 9 but still) my food was good not my favorite bowl and it was not amazing flavor wise either.

Pacific Catch at this location, can be challenging to find street parking. Hey, it's always challenging in SF. The restaurant is nice, simple decor, and clean. West Coast Salmon: grilled salmon, roasted cauliflower, avocado, marinated cucumber, radish salad, cilantro-pepita pesto, soy-tahini drizzle | Base: 1/2 brown rice-quinoa blend, 1/2 mixed organic greens (4.5/5). My wife's favorite at PC. I, too, enjoy this healthy and flavorful salad. Korean BBQ Steak: Marinated skirt steak, sunny side egg, kimchi fried rice, Thai brussels, spicy cucumber banchan, Korean BBQ Sauce, sriracha aioli (4/5). This is a flavorful and delicious bowl. The skirt steak is tender and grilled perfect to medium rare. All the other ingredients, add so much umami, crunch, tartness, savory, and spiciness to this dish. The service is nice, friendly, and attentive.

Would definitely recommend this location. I've always been well-served by the West Coast Salmon and Guaca-Poke. Service is generally pretty quick and the atmosphere is usually relaxed and comfortable.

Got the PuPu Platter and California roll as well as the Poke Nachos for happy hour! After a long walk around the rose garden, Golden Gate Park, and MoMa it was a nice rest. PuPu Platter was pretty and well presented, my mom loved the guac and chips with the poke. As for the poke nachos, it is a bit under seasoned to my taste so I always mix it with extra wasabi. California roll was delicious as always. Service was nice and fast!

100% must try the next time you're in the city. The service was great and the ambiance was perfect for a nice date night for myself and my husband. The food came out fairly quickly and was delicious. I love some perfectly crunchy fish and chips and that is definitely what I got at Pacific Catch. It's located across the street from Golden Gate Park so you can make a day of sight seeing and amazing food.

Had lunch here with a couple of friends after visiting the de Young Museum. It's very convenient to everything you do at Golden Gate Park and public transportation to/from other parts of the City is easy with the N Judah and 7 Haight/Noriega bus running less than a block from the restaurant. Pacific Catch is pretty dependable for the quality of their food and for having a wide selection of things to order. This time I had the fish tacos and they were pretty good. My two dining companions each had a salad and they looked great with large portions. The only down side, I think, is that things are pretty pricey!

The tacos are amazing and fresh, poke bowls are super yummy. my fave is the surf in turf with skirt steak in a chimchurri sauce, grilled shrimp, broccolini, and their potatoes bravo. All good came out hot and fresh but pricey . Service was ok but the convenience in the inner sunset wins every time when we can get meat and seafood options for everyone's palette. Will be back!

Salmon Lover Roll is super fresh and well presented. I liked the textures here with some crunch inside from tempura salmon then the sashimi salmon on the outside. The cut up size of the roll was a bit awkwardly large for one bite, but still manageable. Was surprised no soy sauce was provided. Good for a light meal or snack to share - it's not filling enough for a full dinner in my mind. Staff was friendly to order with and food was prepared within 15 min. The interior and patio seating looks very nice and spacious if you choose to dine in.

Lobster roll not very good. Looking forward to a split bun grilled in butter. But, got a very sweet roll with a small piece of the top cut out. Too sweet, not grilled in butter, and very disappointing. Not too much lobster. Very expensive as expected, of course l, but they could do the traditional roll split in half and grilled in butter. This tasted like a sweet Hawaiian roll not the quality to go with lobster. Very disappointed. Everything else is a 5. Great service and some of the food is a five. Very disappointed that they didn't plan better with the lobster rolls.

Good experience at Pacific Catch today, 6/29, around noon. The bar tender ,Genesis Q, was very attentive and customer focused, which isn't typically the case at the bar tender when he is not there. As for the food, the Poke Bowl was great, as usual, and the fish and chips were also very good. Love Pacific Catch and still think it's one of the best places in the city.

I'm a local and visit this place from time to time, usually getting the salmon burger with slaw and sweet potato fries, which is amazing. (it's a better deal and quality than Jenny's burger for about the same price, which I didn't expect) This time around I was tempted off of this pattern by the hot fish street food tacos, and kind of regretted it. They were really good, with a nice level of heat but still able to taste the fish... but they were tiny. And I mean visibly, do a double take, smaller than they looked on the menu. The fish barely covered the tortilla and looked lost on the tray. I'm kicking myself for not taking a whole photo of the tray, but did a rough side by side compare in PS. at 11 for two tiny tacos, when I could have paid 15 for just the salmon burger - it's not a good quantity/protein value for the money. They needed to be ~30% larger.... If they intend you to buy more than one plate, you're getting more, but also paying another 11 for 2 more tiny tacos. The Watermelon Agua Fresca was very good, and better than the mango kombucha I had last time. The service was fine, though it took a little time to get the check. I sat on the patio, because fire, of course.

We had reservations for the dog friendly patio. This was a nice structure with wooden roof, walls and partitions for the tables. It was comfortable outdoor dining but it did get nippy as the meal progressed. Sadly there were no heaters maybe because it too much of a fire hazard. If you do select the open patio, it's wise to bring an extra layer no matter what time of the year. The menu was very friendly to people with different diets. I of course needed the diabetic version of most meals. The menu was flexible with subs that took care of many special needs. My friend had allergies and needed a specially cooked entrée. For some reason restaurant kitchens always have trouble with her requests. I guess the cooks just can't bring themselves to follow her instructions. She had to send back her entrée three times to get it properly cooked according to her medical needs. Our server was simply wonderful. She apologize profusely for the kitchen's failure to follow her instructions and just kept trying time after time to get it right. So you know, I ordered the fish and chips, right? Of course. The menu offered two pieces, three pieces, or four piece options. I went with three pieces, hoping that it wouldn't be too much and it was just right. These pieces were a little bit smaller than I'm used to. They were fried to a nice hearty crunch that lasted all the way to the end of the meal. I was very happy, however after I was treated to that divine tartar sauce over at the Anchor (bar and grill) I was pretty spoiled. This particular tartar sauce, while tasty seems so clunky by comparison, and the ketchup was standard ketchup. There was no malt vinegar. I know this is earth shattering news. Service- 5 stars Ambiance- surprisingly cushy patio dining - 5 stars Temperature - this is San Francisco - bring a sweater. No wait bring two sweaters. Menu - flexible - able to handle most special needs. Five stars Cooking - highly competent with the menu - fell apart with special needs.- Three stars.

FOOD: We stumbled upon this restaurant because everywhere else we planned to go had too long of a long line, but left quite dissatisfied with our meals. - I ordered the Kanpachi Yellowtail ($32) in the Hawaiian Sea Salt style with the Grilled Broccolini and Kimchi Fried Rice sides. It was just so ridiculously expensive for food that wasn't even good. - The fish was dry, the fried rice was so sour (honestly my bad for ordering Asian food at a non-Asian restaurant), and the broccolini was tough. I still cannot believe I ended up paying $40 for this meal... I can eat AYCE shabu with high-quality meat until my stomach explodes for only 3/4 of the price. SERVICE/AMBIANCE: The restaurant was pretty empty on a Monday night, but our waitress was pretty kind and attentive. It's quite clean inside, and I believe it has been remodeled since I came. There is street parking available, but it's pretty hard to find a spot. OVERALL: This was probably one of the most overpriced meals I had ever eaten in my entire life, and I will not be returning. A lot of their menu has Japanese/Korean foods, so you're better off just visiting an actual Japanese or Korean establishment instead of paying so much for Westernized versions.

Pacific catch has a good variety of food, especially if you want healthier options. On the pricier end, even if you go and order the happy hour options, it can add up quickly. Parking: If you're lucky you can find some street parking. Can Bart and Muni for convenience. Ambiance: newly renovated.

Our go to modern family pacific seafood style restaurant that has something for everyone Still not vey cheap at $370 for 9 people but love their poke platters and ahi tuna burgers and fish and chips for the kids. Sashimi bowls are part of their current Tokyo-summer promotion Somebody asked me to describe and I said it is basically a seafood mainland Hawaii style Olive Garden or TGIF. If anything the only problem I find with Pacific Catch in the SF location is the service. It is always very inconsistent. Never asked if I want a soda refill. Waited 20 mins for food and they missed two of the entrees which came out late this time. Still said, have loved this concept for twenty years and have been eating their food for over 20 years.

This place is excellent! I was looking for some quality sashimi and this place had it in spades! I got the Sashimi Trio and it was excellent. The sashimi tasted fresh and the sides that came with it paired wonderfully! I also just love how this restaurant looks. It is very spacious and its wood furniture and large windows give it a very welcoming atmosphere. The service was great too and FAST! My friend and I ordering our food and it came out in about five minutes! The only downside is that I was still hungry for more afterwards and this place can be a bit on the pricey side depending on what one orders. On that note though I will mention that there are several dishes that one can get at $20 and under though. In all this is a wonderful place to get some high quality sashimi!

We went for an early dinner around 5:45pm on a Monday, and there was no wait, was promptly greeted and seated for a party of 5 without a reservation. Vibes and ambiance are clean and pleasant overall. What we ordered: Grilled chicken bowl, 3.5/5: Was a pretty standard chicken bowl. Generous portions, came with a ton of rice as the base. Yellowtail bowl, 4.5/5: My first time having cooked yellowtail, did not disappoint. The salad was also prepared well and complimented the dish. Between the two, I would order the yellowtail again, especially since Pacific Catch as a restaurant is focused on providing seafood-based dishes. We parked along Irving St, which has ample street parking.

Disappointed by the food and service. Ceviche/poke trio was disappointing. The Ahi poke was poorly prepped. There was a lot of silver skin, which made it inedible. Also got two kids meals with chicken tender and fried fish. The fish itself tasted fine but the batter on the fish looked really unappetizing. I am hoping we came on an off night. The restaurant seemed in disarray. Food and water took a long time to come out. We were brought coconut shrimp instead of calamari. When we received our calamari, the server also brought out two additional trays of fries we did not order. We also didn't bother waiting for the ice cream that came with our kids combo.

One of my favorite Pacific Catch locations to go to. Service is great & timely. This last time I got the sashimi trio + added crab salad in addition to calamari starter. Really good across the board

The food here was fantastic! We ordered four entrees and two appetizers, which were all delicious and well-prepared. Our waitress was friendly, though we wished she had checked in with us more frequently. Despite this, the other staff members were attentive and helpful when we needed to ask for the bill and to-go boxes. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and we're grateful for the great meal and the assistance from the rest of the team. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Pacific Catch isn't reinventing the wheel but still clocks in as a very satisfying option, hinting at fusion while never abandoning the comfort zone. The Japanese Wasabi bowl (sub tofu so it's vegan!) is delicious though 150% of usual dressing amount would be better and they should really consider seasoning their tofu (why doesn't anybody do that???). Sometimes the ratios are wacky, like the occasional glut of pickled ginger, but if you catch them on a good night, it's a well balanced dish.

Friday 10/11/24 at 6pm When the check arrive to the table we give the card to the server and specify the amount she needed to change including her tip but she overcharged $7.50 more on tips I was a little disappointed we almost give her 20 dollars because service wasn't really good but seems like she wasn't happy with it that she need to add 7 more dollars to her tip mmm I think that is unfair the drinks took too much time to get a simple beer on draft and Long Island tasting like a simple kids lemonade Mai tai is 6/10 Anyways the food is good ambiance so so they were so many loud kids walking around my dog was under the table but he get scared for the loud and noisy kids so my dog decided to Jump on the booth just to be next to me and the server said your dog needs to be on the floor under the table idk why they have dogs menu if they don't let us be ‍ And the server I hope she doesn't overcharge extra tip to all the costumer I think this is so unfair ‍

Came in very late, but they were so kind to take us. Always bright and clean inside. I ordered the ahi poke bowl, so refreshing and healthy. The wasabi sauce was a little spicy and savory. I was very pleasantly surprised by all of the delicious components. The food is always very fresh & fast.

Do not come to this restaurant if you want to have a nice meal. The foods are ok, and the drinks are below average for the prices. There is no services from any workers who work there. That Latino manager and waitress were so insincere to apologize for what they did not provide or deliver upon our request. The worse thing was they were defending themselves for talking back to us and not admitting they were doing nothing for customer services! They even brought up another staff for their excuses to blame for. They need another normal manger to run that place. There are tons of other good restaurants with an outstanding customer services in that neighborhood you can enjoy lots for the great experience than being humiliated.

Pacific Catch is simply a tried and true favorite for my family. As the creature of habit that I am, I have ordered the Hawaiian Teriyaki Bowl with salmon for the last ten years, and probably will continue to do so for the next decade as well; it's delicious and filling and balanced. HOWEVER. They have definitely undergone quite a few changes in the time that we have visited this establishment. The quality and portion sizes have dipped in the last few years, despite prices steadily increasing. This has led to fewer visits on our part. The service and atmosphere has remained spectacular throughout, though. The servers are attentive, funny, and efficient; the decor and furniture thoughtfully put together; the space open and well-lit by the natural light that pours in from the plentiful windows. Good vibes.

We came here on Saturday afternoon with family. They sat us a bit early for our reservation of 5ppl which was nice because we had a sleeping baby with us :) The food was AMAZING and so was the service. The ambiance is also beautiful. It has lots of natural light and tasteful decor. It's perfect for families because it's spacious and loud enough that your young ones won't disturb the whole place. There were lots of families and out of towners who were probably exploring the GG park, which is like a block from the restaurant. So this is a perfect place to bring people who are visiting to give them a full experience of SF. There is some nice outdoor seating too with heating if you want a little more action/people watching. Food highlights: - fried calamari (5/5!): super fresh, crispy, not greasy and oversalted like many places do and the absolute best smoky chipotle aioli ever, they also deep fry the lemon slices and peppers too which were phenomenal - thai brussels (4.5/5): really crispy and delicious, they had a tangy/sweet sauce but they could've used a hint more of the sauce. would still order again - shrimp tempura roll (5/5): i order this at a lot of places. this was straightforward and good - exactly what it should be with crunchy tempura shrimp, avo, cucumber and sweet glaze on top was not overpowering or too sweet - baja fish tacos (4/5): I got the fried version cus who wants it any other way...the fish was so moist, delicious and flaky. the breading had the perfect amount of crunch. the crema and other fillings were a bit heavy handed so I would've wanted less creamy sauce since the fried fish was already really rich and heavy. i would recommend getting a salad as your side instead of fries. it comes with some basic black beans on the side which my kid wolfed down - mixed catch platter (5/5): must order for groups- various deep fried seafood. highlight was the coconut shrimp (toddler approved)- sooo crunchy and yummy. it's definitely a bit overkill if you get fries as your side and if you get this for just yourself but perfect to share family style. next time I would actually order this as an appetizer for everyone to share vs just getting the calamari because this platter includes calamari. let's just say my husband got this as his entree for lunch and didn't eat the rest of the day :) The service was spot on here. Our server was always there when we needed something, which come to think of it, we really never needed to ask him for anything because he was so on it. We didn't need a single extra side of sauce, napkin, plate or anything because the staff had it all taken care of and anticipated our needs which is what good service is all about. It's such a nice feeling to not have to track down service staff for these little things. We all also appreciated that the server (I think his name was John) wasn't intrusive at all. He could see that we were all catching up as a family and just appeared when we needed to order more food - very polite and sweet. Also, the quality of seafood was amazing. If I'm going out to a seafood restaurant, the quality/sourcing is obviously really important and you could tell by tasting it how topnotch it was. We will definitely be back for more!

Ok this place is pretty good! We swung by for happy hour with a group of 4 and were seated quickly. All the staff were friendly and patient and helped us figure out how much food to offer for the table. The food was yummy and well priced for happy hour! I haven't been during later dinner hours, but the happy hour price point was kind to the medical student budget. I'd definitely try it out at a happy hour!

I recently dined at Pacific Catch and was thoroughly impressed! The ambiance was inviting, the service top-notch, and the menu offered a delightful array of fresh and flavorful seafood. From the perfectly fried calamari to the fresh snow crab, every dish exceeded my expectations. The use of high-quality ingredients truly set Pacific Catch apart. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking a fantastic seafood dining experience. Five stars without a doubt!

I wanted to like this place more as I've heard so many good things about it but the day we went just wasn't their day. The service was excellent because we had a large party and the place was spacious, bright, and clean. The fish was cooked well but all the dishes were over salted. We ordered a few sushi rolls and they had too much sauce. The best dish we ordered was the miso black cod. Texture of fish was perfect and just enough miso sauce but the rest of the sides again were over salted. I would go back again but will order the good with low sodium.

I always walk past this restaurant when I'm heading to Golden Gate Park so it was great that I finally got to try this place based on some coworkers recommendations. The space is really spacious and I love the beach-y vibes. The staff are also really quick and communicative. This is definitely a place to being small groups or a casual date. Got the calamari (not pictured), coconut shrimp (not pictured), and seared ahi sushi taco. Calamari and Coconut Shrimp were really flavorful and both dishes were lightly battered so you wouldn't accidentally eat a huge strand of batter. The seared ahi sushi taco was really fresh and it was perfect for a lighter dinner. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend. Definitely want to come back and try some other items on their menu because they have a REALLY extensive menu. There's something for everyone.

I have visited this local inner sunset institution a few times, but most recently I tried the Hawaiian teriyaki chicken bowl (subbed chicken for grilled white fish) , and it came with plenty of vegetables and grilled pineapple atop a bed of white rice. The fish itself was well cooked, not dry at all. it had a nice grilled flavor as well. The sauce was a standard teriyaki sauce, it made the rest of the bowl flavorful. It was a bit overpriced for what it was, but I was grateful everything I received was tasty enough to finish.

Always treated spectacularly, never have to ask for anything. Staff is attentive & friendly. I've tried almost everything on the menu (I'm pescatarian) & left completely satisfied . The restaurant can get pretty crowded & lively in the late afternoon & a down right party in the evening! Parking can be troublesome in the later afternoon however lunch can be a pleasant treat, not crowded at all. Most seating areas are comfortable for 4 people, lots of room with a comfortable atmosphere & good lighting. Hors d'oeuvre & alcohol can make for an expensive dinner if you don't keep an eye on what you're ordering. It's easy when you're having a good time.

I'll start my review by stating that both my sister and I had bad case of FOOD POISONING after eating there. After lunch I went for a walk down 9th Ave and I barely got half way down the street when diarrhea set in. I had to rush back to the restaurant and use the restroom. I stayed there for probably 15-20 mins waiting for stomach to calm down. I had to then rush back home and barely made it home before the 2nd bout with my diarrhea started up again. I emailed my sister about what happened to me and that's when she told me she's started getting sick as well. So here's what we had for lunch there. We both had the Salmon Chowder for starters. Next she ordered the Striped Sea Bass Fresh Catch and I ordered the Kanpachi Yellowtail Fresh Catch. We then shared small piece of fish for taste comparison. Fish was just ok. But I did get a lot of Brussels sprouts with my lunch. My sister and I love eating fish and have so for over 40+ years. In all my life I've only gotten sick a few times from eating fish and usually because the fish is contaminated. The "Fresh Catch" on the menu is misleading as the fish was not fresh. My sister had always wanted to try Pacific Catch because she always passed by it on the bus. So on Wednesday August 30th, 2024 at 1:00 pm we agreed to eat there. Unfortunately this is our first and last time we will ever eat here. .

Fancy fast food. A lot of veggies type bowls with low cost of product but expensive. Protein is not free range or organic. So many ridiculous fees that the customer has to pay. 3% fee for wages (not my problem) 5% insurance fee. ( not my problem, pacific catch should be paying this) Covid fee Tip fee To go fee.... Im not coming back fee .

Great little place, not sure why there aren't better reviews. I had the sea bass with chimmichurri sauce, the fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce balanced it well. On the side I ordered the Thai brussel sprouts, they were so flavorful my mouth is watering just thinking about them. The other person in my party ordered the yellowtail with chimmichurri which was equally delicious. To start we had the calamari, also very tasty. Service was on point and overall a great dinner.

Came here to happy hour with my family. The hot fish (fried cod fish) taco was so good, super crispy outside and really soft inside, tasted very fresh. The original ahi poke was also very good, also tasted very fresh. I will be coming back for both next time. The waiter Ryan was also great. We had some food allergy considerations, and Ryan checked and double checked all the components of our order with the chef.

I'm so happy they opened this local chain in SoCal and I was visiting SF and wanted to get some reasonably priced drinks so I came here. The hawaiian butterfly is one of the best drinks I've ever had. I have to get it when I visit their Tustin location back home. Unfortunately I wanted to try local SF places to eat so I didn't get any food. Also this location is better than the other one on the northside. More options too. A Latina girl who works here gave us very good service. I didn't get her name but props to her.

I went there for the first time. The fried foods were cold and not crispy at all. I read the reviews before I went there and was excited to eat some crispy food. I was disappointed

This is one of the better Pacific Catch restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area. I used to really like the small hidden parking spot in the back but it's been taken over by a cute area for outdoor seating. On this day, I met up with my family to break bread and enjoy catching up after they had an event at Golden Gate Park. I ordered a glass of the Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, the Wagyu burger, and an order of Poké guac to share with my sister-in-law. I was pretty happy with the Cabernet and then I had a bite of the burger which was supposed to be cooked medium with a little bit of pink but it was a little bit dry and I wish it had a little more flavor, but I added poke guac on each bite, and it made it so much more flavorful! It was a Bite of surf and turf at the same time which is something that I really love, unfortunately, it was from us having to order two different orders and it wasn't in the same order. Next time I would probably order the burger, but asked for it to be medium rare and then that way I might get it as medium, which would've made it less dense only because I don't like tough meat as It feels cheap to me. As for service, Genesis was fantastic and very accommodating for our very large party, and for this reason is why we have given this restaurant four stars on this super cold day in San Francisco.

This is our favorite Pacific Catch location. It is right next to the park and their outdoor seating allows for our bicycles without locking them up. We ordered 2x Asian Chimichurri salads $21, 3 taco platter $23 (2 fish and 1 steak tacos), salmon chowder $13 and a shrimp tempura roll. Everything tasted fine. I did notice they no longer have the lobster roll on the menu :(. That was the thing I enjoyed the most here. Service was excellent.

Went for happy hour and got fish tacos, and you'd think it's expensive for one taco but you get such a good amount of fish it is totally worth it. We love their happy hours as well as the bowls for lunch!

This place was perfect for happy hour! A great place for a few friends to enjoy great food. Our waitress AJ was the best, so beautiful and helpful! Ask for her when you come in. The restaurant is very bright and open, I highly recommend! We will definitely come back!
