Pacific Catch

We tried Pacific Catch and overall had a really good experience. We started with calamari and eggplant as appetizers, and both were excellent the calamari especially stood out. For the main, we had the sea bass. The flavor was good, though the portion felt a bit small for the price. The food overall was tasty and well-prepared, just a little on the pricey side. Service was great, friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was enjoyable, comfortable, and inviting.

Per their website, “Pacific Catch is a West Coast Fish House dedicated to delivering high quality sustainable seafood.” The site also mentions that their diverse menu is served with Aloha-inspired hospitality which we personally experienced from our attentive server, Lexi, who went above and beyond. She enhanced our overall dining experience…give that woman a raise! I’ve enjoyed takeout from Pacific Catch on a few occasions in the past and it’s always been a delicious and healthier alternative. This was my first visit to their physical location in the Tustin Marketplace and I was impressed with the aesthetics of their restaurant interior which also included a destination patio and an open-air cocktail bar. We started with their calamari appetizer and my choice of entree was the Barramundi Sea Bass, Asian Herb Chimichurri style. Customers get their choice of two sides and I opted for the grilled asparagus and kimchi fried rice. The entire meal was and continues to be fresh, healthy and nutritious!

My wife and I generally enjoyed our first experience at Pacific Catch with friends, but our second visit has definitely locked it in as a favorite. The atmosphere inside is very fitting for the type of restaurant it is, but on both occasions the service can be a little slow (much better the second time though!) The plates are very full, and you can taste the quality and freshness of the ingredients. It's not quite "caught-off-the-boat-this-morning" fresh, but the restaurant is much more upscale than those types of restaurants typically are. All of the fish entrees and styles we've tried are delicious and well-portioned, but I'd say the highlight is the kimchi fried rice. It's worth ordering just by itself, but make sure you at least get it as a side. The sticky ribs were a new try for us, and they were a great starter. Over all, this is absolutely a restaurant to look for if you're looking for light, refreshing, and upscale without breaking the bank too much.

I really enjoy Pacific Catch, the seafood is always fresh and absolutely delicious. The salmon plate was a standout: perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The staff are friendly and attentive, which makes the experience even better. Definitely planning to come back.

I went here for a friend's birthday and we had a good time. The food was tasty. Our server was nice. She got our friend a yummy birthday dessert at the end which was a chocolate lava cake with a vanilla scoop on the side to balance the sweetness. * Calamari 4/5 - The fried squid was good with a spicy kick and nice side dipping sauce. * Taco 5/5 - The beef taco was full of flavor and the meat was tender. The shrimp taco also had good flavor. I didn't want the black beans, so they were sweet and let me substitute them for brussel sprouts instead. The other side I picked was sweet potato fries which were good and had generous portion. * Guaca-Poke 4.5/5 - The guacamole was tasty with a good amount of citrus. The ahi poke was good but there was not a lot of it.

Felt like we in Kona on the big island. Super fresh tasty shareable bites. Good happy hour deals. Try the puppy platter. Recommend getting the sea bass skewers.

Great service, great food. I love the ambiance. I ordered the fish and steak tacos, both were delicious. I loved the chile lime fries. The blood orange margarita was ok- too much salt for in the drink from the rim. My bf got the mixed platter and enjoyed it. He liked the Apple old fashioned as well. We both loved the sticky ribs although they are very strong soy/salty flavor, I would have liked it to be more balanced. Service was fast and friendly. I’d come again.

First time visit due to seeing lots of good reviews. Visited weekend and waited about 40 minutes without reservation. The server was friendly and we sat outside. The food are so delicious. The ingredients for the salad were fresh and the fishes were moist. We ordered five items and all of them tasted good. Will definite came back. They have lunch menu for $15 for 5 items which are decent. Give it a try when you are in the area
