Pacific Social

Service was phenomenal. Carlos was the perfect example of a consummate professional. We were a soccer team party of 18 and were served like it was a four seasons. The food was delicious with the brunch/lunch menus available. The decor was very nice, my only real complaint is the TVs were 480p at best (meaning we could count the pixels) and our decision was to go there for the SDFC game, which to their credit they have the Apple +. On another down note there was no sound for us so we listened to March madness while watching soccer 🤷. Kudos to Carlos and the manager who was very accommodating. Great location too, but parking is difficult btw.

Went here today for Easter brunch. Was a great experience. Food was terrific and the presentation was on point. While waiting on the rest of my group to arrive the bartender kindly gave my son a soda.

We had a positive experience when we came for dinner. Our server was probably one the most friendliest and helpful servers that we have encountered in a long time. Food overall was good, but the salmon toast special didn’t have the smoky taste that was described and was bland. The tacos and braised rib were good at least. Will come again for sure

I order here takeout here often (at least a couple times a month). I always get the fish and chips with 1 extra tartar sauce because they have the best tartar sauce I've ever had. They also have the best fish and chips I've ever had. Today, my order was not ready upon arrival/was not processed. The manager on duty handled the situation perfectly and professionally, and I am happy knowing I will continue to support this restaurant and their amazing team. Thank you to the manager on duty today! You've secured a customer for life!

Pacific Social is a gem! The drink selection is impressive, with a wide range of options to suit every taste. But what really shines is the food - the Nashville hot chicken is a must-try, with its perfect balance of spice and flavor. The asparagus fries are a delightful twist on a classic favorite, and the lamb chops are tender and juicy. The wings are also a highlight, with a variety of sauces to choose from. While the menu is largely geared towards meat-lovers, there's something for everyone. If you're looking for a great spot to grab a drink and enjoy some delicious food, Pacific Social is definitely worth a visit!

They were kind enough to allow our SDChrono Watch Group to meet up at their restaurant. We had a good sized room that fit about 50 of us. The food was great and the service was amazing! We ate and ordered just about everything on their menu! See pics.

Great appetizers and finger foods. The atmosphere is fantastic. The vegan enchilada was so...so but there are plenty of other veg options as well.

Great food, amazing desserts. They fixed the only (fairly petty) issue they had, which I considered a big deal but it was based on amount given not quality, and they appear to have fixed the issue. Its always an issue to size appropriately and keep it consistent. I recommend this restaurant.

We ate here at Pacific Social for the first time last night and really enjoyed it. The restaurant has a nice, open pleasant atmosphere with a bunch of TVs tuned to various sports channels. The service was very nice, Emily was very personable and never kept us waiting. The food was superb. The fish tacos were very good and I really like the asparagus fries. I've never had asparagus fries and they did a good job with the light batter, thin slices of parmesan cheese and a tasty aioli dip. The Steakhouse Chopped Wedge salad was also very good and filling. Parking was very easy and we did not have a problem finding a spot.

Food is aight, drinks are decent, service was good, thanks Emily! Kid friendly. Only bar option in the area so thankful

Came here recently for brunch and was thrilled to find out they had mimosas flight, which I promptly ordered! Followed up with delicious chilaquiles while my boyfriend had French toast. He is less of a breakfast person but I was happy as can be!

I got the Avocado Toast, some of the best I've had. Really excellent fries as well. I did not like the environment the music was too loud and the tvs were annoying. Service was okay. Music was absolutely horrible they need me on the aux fr.

If I could give them 3.5 stars I would, but I decided to round up. My friend and I came here on a busy-ish Saturday evening. We waited about 5-10 minutes for a table. After being seated we perused the menu and ordered the pretzel sticks, pesto chicken with French fries and Mac and cheese. We also ended with the brownie sundae. The pretzel sticks were very crunchy and dry (unsure if they were supposed to be that way?) they were not fluffy and soft as you might expect a pretzel. It came with a cheese dipping sauce, which was OK. Would rate those a 3/5 The pesto chicken sandwich was flavorful and my favorite item we ordered. The fries were crisp and everything was hot and delicious. 5/5 for this dish. The jalapeño feta spread was amazing! The Mac and cheese was good as well. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the pancetta in it- maybe straight bacon would be better, but I could have done without the pancetta. It was hot and cheesy with a hint of garlic. I would give this dish 4/5 The brownie sundae sounded amazing! It was a brownie served hot with peanuts and a peanut brittle with ice cream on top. The brownie was delicious but as we told our waitress, the brittle didn't add anything to the dish. It was hard to cut (probably because of the cold ice cream on top) so we had to wait for it to melt. And by that time, everything was melted. 3.5/5 (also unsure where the caramel was- we didn't get any) The service was very good, especially on a busy Saturday night. Our waitress was friendly and checked on us multiple times, refilling our drinks regularly. Overall I would come back here.

A cool hangout spot for a casual gathering. Servers are polite and helpful, the bartender is generally good at getting drinks right and there are some interesting appetizers (try the wings..!) I believe they have happy hour from 3-6pm. Pro tip- I've been told by the staff that Thursday evening after happy hour they have $5 Margaritas..!

This place went beyond our $50 lunch date budget. We order 2 items and no drinks or appetizer, and our total bill was $91.67 including tax and tip. We ordered the Seared Halibut and Skuna Salmon. The plate looked empty, that's why I cropped the photos so it won't look empty. For the price we paid, they should have added more greens like garlic bok choy and picked cucumber for the salmon, and Brussels sprout and squash for the halibut. The taste is just okay. The only positive experience we had were the service and ambience.

I have been a loyal customer to pacific social since 2020. I would go every month sometimes multiple times a month. The previously stunning brunch menu and bottomless mimosas was truly the best part of the weekend. Over the years management has changed, but the menu and mimosas, for the most part, stayed in tack. I just went to have a nice brunch and was greeted with a significantly smaller menu (and more expensive) AND NO BOTTOMLESS MIMOSAS. The new management should be ashamed. This used to be an amazing brunch spot now it has become a place I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND EVER AGAIN. DO BETTER

Came here for lunch before a movie with friends. We were seated on the covered patio and it was shaded and breezy (dare I say maybe a little too cold for some, despite the warmer temps that day) Decor was cute. The bathroom smelled so nice! Drinks were good. Food was yummy. Our waitress saw we had a birthday gift on the table and brought me a free dessert! It was delicious! It's out of the way of my usual circle but I would come again. We did not use the gaming room, but it was available.

Great food and beautiful atmosphere. I wasn't a huge fan of the coconut margarita. It was a little too sweet for me but still good. The game attic was a nice touch as well and a fun way to end the night!

Super time here for Sunday night SDRW. Quiet night on the patio, and Oliver is a super waiter. $30 was a great deal too for items that would normally be 55 together. We started with the pretzel bread which is delicious and the exceptionally good smoked salmon dip. I also loved the Austin Hope quest red blend, which is a super value at $10. The salmon entree was not quite as good but it was a good portion. I can be critical of Cohn restaurants, which sometimes have better service than food. But this is delicious and a great experience. Looking forward to coming back again!

Dear Yelp Community, My first time visiting the other day. Great service from Jim and Maddy (they lowered the outdoor shades for us, as well as turned on the fire pit). The happy hour was great...from what we ordered, I can validate the mini-cheese board, and pretzels! Enjoy! Best, Anna

If you live in the Carmel Valley area and surrounding neighborhoods then this is a cool place to try out. I'd say in the range of $17-25 per person to eat. It's a very nice place with a great atmosphere and a nice outdoor area perfect for happy hours. Daily HH is from 3-6pm with select appetizers and drinks on special.

Good ambience, decent food, great location. Like some other places, they recently updated their menu, meaning a price increase. But still a good option especially for happy hour.

Tried this place for lunch today for the first time. We got Nashville hot chicken sandwich and Pesto chicken sandwich. Both were delicious. French fries were freshly cooked, hot and crispy. And they have really good ranch dressing. Definitely will be back.

What I remember most about this spot was the fantastic chicken wings! Not overly spicy, but definitely flavorful. A sticky sauce and a not overcooked wing made them so memorable to me. Service was great, the ambiance was nice, and the beers were plentiful, cold, and tasty. Lots of free parking (garage) close-by as well.

I hopped in here the other day with my friend that was visiting and we had to get to an appointment soon so we ordered with the waitress and took it to go. I was kindly greeted by a very handsome man at the door and they got us to a table right away. The waitress came over quickly and we ordered the Strawberry chicken salad which was delicious and fresh, the French Dip sandwich which was also delicious on a nice French loaf with Au Ju, and I would recommend either. Then they brought my friend a piece of this amazing birthday pie while we waited and we snarfed it down. Our waitress was so sweet to do that and I would definitely return! Thanks!

Cute place! The service was average but there were multiple managers there that were also checking in. We got the Korean short rib. The short rib was delicious but the sides were not great. Not bad, just could have been better. It was also a small serving for a $33 meal.

Great happy hour experience at Pacific Social in Pacific Highlands Ranch! Abundant parking on the street and in the structure. Shout out Mateo for the A++ service. He was engaging, friendly, warm, and kind. Very prompt and efficient too. The restaurant itself was spacious, clean, and well decorated. There's even an arcade upstairs! My glass of red wine was delicious. Would return for more drinks and to try their food.

Not gonna lie the food was actually solid. I'm not really one to go to American sit down restaurants cuz it's usually just a table for rich old white people to hang out around. Not that this isn't the case here, but at least the food isn't bad. It is expensive though. Like really expensive. Feels bad to give it 4 stars given how expensive it is. I did get my meal paid for (slay girl boss) so maybe it was 5 stars.

Really tasty Brussel sprouts!! Could've been cut in half and a little crispier but flavor was good. We got this along with some Mocktails. Cute environment and nice heated patio. Would go back and try some more food and drinks

What a huge place! Everyone was really nice. Their staff is great. I enjoyed my food and plan on coming back here with my wife. They had bottomless mimosas and margaritas for 15.00 like how do you beat that!!

Let me just say, the reason for 5 Stars is due to our waiter Brandon! Brandon was just AMAZING! Customer service at it's BEST! Thank you again Mr. Brandon for an amazing experience being our first time. Located what seems to be a mall so parking is ample. Pretzels are a must for appetizers! So soft and made to perfection! It comes with a beer cheese and honey mustard as dipping sauces. Pesto chicken sandwich is also a must! Fries were also amazing! Mac and cheese was a hit for my son! Shrimp pasta was delish for my mom! Shrimp flatbread was just ok. Smashed burger was just ok.

We met up with friends for Sunday Brunch.  There was no wait at 10:15. I had used the Wait List option on Yelp, but it wasnt necessary. I started with a Bloody Mary (5/5) which was excellent and spicy, albeit Pacific Social still does not have horseradish as a condiment. My wife and I shared the PRIME RIB HASH (4/5 $24.95).  When served, it was not like we expected from the menu description.  There was a nice thick slice of beef rib roast cooked medium on the side of a potato/tomato/onion hash topped with spinach, two eggs (poached beautifully) and Hollandaise sauce.  The beef was not part of the hash. Coffee was delicious, and our service was very good.

This place has all the vibes. Dined here for brunch on a Sunday afternoon and the service was impeccable. The place was packed with people watching the football game so it was very lively. Our server was super cool and made great suggestions. I ordered the mimosa flight and was honestly taken aback at how delicious each flavor was...ive never had such yummy mimosas. My favorite was the passion fruit! I ordered the lemongrass shrimp wraps which were crunchy, light and flavorful. My friends got the chilaquiles and the meat lovers burrito. They both finished their plates so im guessing they were good too! Overall great place to hang out with friends and watch the game. A tad bit pricey but worth it imo.

I had my birthday dinner here. I was accommodated beyond my expectations. The managers had my area ready to go immediately upon my reservation time. Emily our server was happy and ready to tackle any challenge that came her way. Whether it was adding people to my table or helping to entertain the children at the children's table. Emily had it under control always being pleasant and helpful. I recommend booking any gathering here and request Emily as your server. A+++++

We've seen the signs a few times and decided to stop in on an e-bike ride. What amazing food, staff and decor. The bruschetta app was outstanding. The pesto chicken sandwich is so good and the key lime pie was just like Florida. Everyone was so nice. It's dog friendly on the patio and there's an arcade upstairs. It's a must try.

I eat at this restaurant regularly. The food is great and the atmosphere is just right. They have a nice bar with everything you could ask for, and the food is well made, tasty, and high quality. The service is always outstanding here. My favorite server is hands down Aram. This guy is kind, courteous, professional, friendly, and very attentive. He comes by regularly to ask if you need anything and brings it to you very rapidly. He has a wonderful personality, which makes the experience so much more enjoyable.

The bad: Maybe the worst service experiences in Cali. The good: amazing steak salad. Good Mac and cheese, the asparagus app was interesting, pretty good burger!!! The service: pretty much ruined my first experience, Hannah our server didn't seem to want to be there. No personality, in a hurry, never around to ask for anything, we had to grab other servers. Even when we were going to leave couldn't find her, had to get another person to assist. Pretty bad service since we wanted to get desert but because she was not around we left. Game room: pretty cool idea and unique, played games with my son after dinner. The best employee: this has to go to Mateo, since Hannah didn't want to come over and do her job, we asked Mateo for help. He assisted us with things our assigned server should be doing but he had a great attitude, positive, nice and very helpful. This guy turned things around and made us feel we would be returning, well also for that steak chopped wedge salad!!!

I love coming here! The server was very sweet and kind! She wasn't pushy to make us order or leave. The happy hour is great here and I love the lavender fields drink.

Mimosa brunch!!!!!!! I've been here a couple times now for their weekend brunch and can't wait to go back! Great roomy place that's family friendly. Haven't had to wait too long to be seated and served. All you can drink mimosas for $15 as long as you order a meal as well. Totally worth it!!!! Kid friendly with the arcade upstairs... easy to miss if you don't follow the signs or know about the arcade.

Beautiful location, very welcoming environment and exciting for those who love sports as I was able to watch 3 different football games at one time!!! The food was decent. I started with a mock tail ( non alcoholic drink ) PUT THE LIME IN THA... coconut cream. lime juice. pineapple juice, shaken and served over rocks It was actually good and delicious comparable to a light Virgin Pina colada. We Conveniently arrived around happy hour so we ordered the following appetizers : MARINATED GRILLED ARTICHOKE- evoo, lemon, fresh herbs, white balsamic vinaigrette That was delicious and light CRISPY ASPARAGUS -garlic oil, parmesan, basil aioli I actually like these the best. The asparagus was delicious and it was a different eating it fried. Lol The aioli was very good. BRUSSELS SPROUTS- pancetta parmesan, balsamic reduction This was ok a little on the salty side. Our entrée choices were the following: STEAKHOUSE CHOPPED WEDGE 6oz New York steak, candied bacon, blue cheese, tomato. Pickled red onion It was good just the steak was a bit tough ( overcooked) BLACKENED SALMON CAESAR Garlic croutons, chives salmon romaine sun dried tomato. parmesan. croutons This was delicious , the salmon was a nice good size too. STRAWBERRY CHICKEN SALAD- grilled chicken, strawberries, greens, candied pecans, feta cheese, lemon balsamic vinaigrette Flavorful and tasty. CHICKEN POT PIE paired with a petite salad. (house or Ceasar) It was good but I wasn't expecting it with crust only sitting on the top like a soup. (I'm personally used to a delicious crust encasing all the creamy goodness. ) IMPOSSIBLE SALOON BURGER- smoked gouda, caramelized mushrooms, onion straws, spicy bbq sauce It was good, a decent size. Sharable if your aren't too hungry. We ordered their key lime and chocolate Haupia Pies. Definitely sharable. The key lime was my favorite as it was flavorful and both tart and sweet! Great first time experience. A casual nice place, servers are friendly and good food.

Once again Pacific Social did not disappoint! We had a wonderful dinner starting with the Brussel sprouts with Parmesan, Pancetta and Balsamic Glaze. Mmmm. They were great- I do not even like Brussel Spouts! They are a great deal on their Happy Hour menu if you are there from 3 to 6 pm. We had the Braised Short Ribs with root veggies and a wonderful cheese fondue on top. We also had the Steakhouse Chopped Wedge salad with blue cheese. All were excellent. Our server, Gena R was great, very attentive. Thank you to the chefs- I believe Mike and Ryan were the chefs tonight. We will definitely be back. One improvement we would suggest is to add an Espresso machine or even a Nespresso machine. Maybe next time?!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pacific Social Restaurant and I must say, it was an exceptional experience thanks to Tavo! From start to finish, he ensured that our dining experience was nothing short of perfection. Firstly, Tavo's warm and welcoming demeanor set the tone for the brunch experience. He greeted us with a smile and made us feel right at home. His knowledge of the menu was remarkable, providing great recommendations and answering all our questions with enthusiasm! Bottomless mimosas are a must!

I had a fantastic experience at this place, thanks to the exceptional service provided by Aram. He was not only professional but also incredibly kind. His attention to detail and friendly demeanor made my visit truly enjoyable. I'll definitely be coming back, especially since I discovered they have a fantastic happy hour. Living locally, this has become my new go-to spot. Kudos to Aram for creating a welcoming and delightful atmosphere! And this wine was delightful!

I still continue to come here. It's a big space that a group can easily get a table on any day. some days are more crowded than others. service is friendly. Food is good. drink menu is fun. My favorite spot is at the bar...but on the outside! only space for 4 people there but we sometimes squeeze in a couple more stools! as long as PS is in the area, I will likely continue to go...

Went to Pacific Social recently for a school reunion meetup. Shoutout to Chris and team for being so accomodating with our group and making our experience worth while. Service was excellent, waiters/waitresses were very attentive. Food and cocktails were delicious. I recommend their burgers and main entree options. My group and I were very satisfied. Plus the testaursnt comes with an arcade upstairs. Gpod menu to go out with the family or friends or have an event! I am defintely coming back again.

Stopped in after a 2 hour drive from Los Angeles and boy am I glad I did. I sat alone at the bar, and Jim the bartender was outstanding! I tried the smoked chicken wings which are next level! Did not have time to try anything else but everything the neighboring party was served looked amazing! I will definitely return when I. The area!!!

Food was really tasty. We got the fried chicken sandwich and braised short rib. Everything was pretty pricey, but still good. Service was average. The host was very friendly and greeted us and said goodbye when we were leaving. Our waitress seemed to be out of it but maybe we caught her on an off day. Ambiance is low lit, fun, family friendly. There was also an Arcade upstairs which looked cool.

Great for meet-ups! Awesome place all around and has an arcade for kids. Our server, Emily, was phenomenal! Food is also delicious.

Love coming here for happy hour. Sat outside with the rain pouring beyond and white twinkle lights. Brussels sprouts are one of my favorites made with bacon and Parmesan cheese. Delicious! We also had the bbq flat bread. The house red wine blend was like candy... yum! Aram was our waiter who provided top notch service, very experienced and good recommendations. Place has a fun vibe. Great for meeting up with friends!

Been coming here since they opened. Never had a bad experience. Consistent great service with an open setting blending indoors with outside. Great staff and management. Lunch service at the bar with Jim is always the best.

I love Emily!!! She is the Best! Loved her since the first day she waited on us. She is always so nice and always makes dinner experience wonderful. It's always a fun place to go!!!! Oh yeah!!! Don't forget about the arcade! Icing on the cake.

Social/happy hour deals here are absolutely amazing! My partner and I got the frosé 4 days and the seasonal frozen cocktail (strawberry lemonade ) and they were strong and delicious. Our server Aram was super attentive and friendly and the service was great,very fast! Will definitely be back for the specialty cocktails and apps :D

Been coming here for a long time, and have never been disappointed. We usually sit out with out on the dog friendly patio. We came recently for their amazing happy hour and sat at the bar. Service was spectacular on this particular night. The bartenders were kind and attentive. We ordered primary off of the happy hour menu. I started off with a margarita and my partner had a mule. Both were very tasty!! We each had two. We then ordered the fish tacos, grilled artichoke, and Brussels sprouts to share. The fish tacos are very good, nothing fancy, but good for the price you're paying. Would definitely order again. The artichoke was great too, steamed perfectly and the dipping sauce was good. Lovedddd the Brussels sprouts, was my favorite app. Steamed then crisped perfectly. The restaurant itself is very lively and nicely decorated. The bar has a ton of TVs and comfortable seating. I really appreciated the cleanliness of the entire restaurant. Will return soon!

We stopped in for a margarita on Cinco de Mayo and Sophia was wonderful. She was friendly, wanted to make our drinks perfectly. It's not always easy to find good service these days but Sophia was friendly, outgoing making our experience the best.

We had an amazing time tonight at PacSoc. Aram, our server, was amazing. Friendly and funny, he recommended drinks (get the seasonal adult slushy- strawberry lemonade so good you don't taste the alcohol), appetizers (the Brussels were delish!), and dinner (fish & chips were on point!). Oh and recommended the banana cream pie which was so good. The vibe inside was fun but not too loud, so it felt like we were in our own conversation bubble. Would def recommend!

Came here with a friend after work for happy hour. I've been wanting to try out this place since it opened but never had the chance until today. We got there around 5 on Tuesday and it wasn't too busy so we were quickly seated. After taking a look at the happy hour menu, we decided on lamb meatballs, oven baked mac and cheese, and a side of onion rings. I was looking through their Yelp page and saw that their onion rings looked delicious so I wanted to try them out. I got the blueberry bourbon smash for my drink which was pretty good. The food came out super quickly after ordering which was awesome. The lamb meatballs were well seasoned and had a little kick, but nothing too spicy. It came with hummus underneath which was good. The oven baked mac and cheese looked so pretty however it was a little over salted for my taste. The onion rings were delicious!! They were lightly battered and so crispy. I actually got a second order, but sadly they brought out different onion rings the second time. I would totally go back for the first round style of onion rings. Our server was really nice and friendly. Overall, the food here was ok and the drink I had was good. I may consider coming back here to try out a couple other happy hour items and maybe another drink or take a look at their full dinner menu.

We come here a lot when out running errands to grab a drink. Jim is usually the one to help us and he is so friendly and attentive. Also, love his Moscow mule. So yummy.

Good food and drinks but a little expensive for a local restaurant/bar. Staff is always friendly. For drinks I recommend the Grapefruit Sculpin or the frozen Rose. For food I recommend the Double Smash Burger and the Chicken Strawberry Salad.
