Pesca Coastal Classics and Boozy Cocktails

This place is awesome! We came on a Friday night and the service was great. The server, and all the staff, are friendly and accommodating! They have a TV so we were able to catch the Mav’s game. The drinks are well prepared and delicious! Our food came out quickly and was delicious!

It is a beautiful space. The staff is friendly enough. Only had access to brunch menu. Ordered the crab omelette/ it was underwhelming/ a completely plain egg omelette ( no salt or pepper- nothing) then the white crab meat which I’m am guessing was canned tasted as much and though it looked pretty on the plate it was tasteless. The best part of the meal were the potatoes and salad greens. Sautéed spinach though fresh, again had no flavor and certainly no garlic no alcohol today just water and an 8$ limeade which was mostly ice. My tab was over 40 bucks. Maybe it’s better during dinner time .

Delicious seafood restaurant! Their cocktails were amazing— try the guilty pineapple if you like a hint of smokiness to your drinks. Our server made some great recommendations. I got the blackened catfish & crab while my husband opted for the steak frites (Oscar style). Both cooked to perfection, fish was tender and the sauces paired so well! Didn’t have room to try any dessert, but we did share an extra cocktail. The owner came by to check on us and I saw him interacting with all the guests. Loved the atmosphere and we will definitely comeback to try more on their menu.

Had an incredible lunch at Pesca! The food was fresh and flavorful, with perfectly prepared seafood that really stood out. The service was excellent, friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. The drinks were just as impressive, expertly crafted and refreshing. The atmosphere was inviting and stylish, making it a great spot for a relaxing midday meal. Highly recommend Pesca for anyone looking for top-notch seafood, great service, and a fantastic overall experience. We drove from Allen and so worth it! Can’t wait to return!

Arrived early evening before going to the State Fair Music Hall, was not crowded at all and was seated immediately. Received our meals quickly which were enjoyed by everyone!

A Flavorful Escape at Pesca in Trinity Groves – Where Every Bite Surprises!** If you’re hunting for a lively, unpretentious spot that delivers knockout flavors without breaking the bank, Pesca at Dallas’ Trinity Groves is your answer. My family’s Saturday afternoon visit—strategically timed to dodge crowds—turned into a feast of “unexpected” delights, just as their motto promises. With ample parking (a rare urban perk!) and a buzzing yet welcoming vibe, this gem is a must-try. Nestled in the eclectic Trinity Groves food hall, Pesca radiates warmth with its vibrant, coastal-inspired decor. The energy is infectious but never overwhelming—think cheerful chatter, sunlit spaces, and a staff that greets you like old friends. The owner himself welcomed us at the door, escorting us to our table while chatting up the day’s specials like a proud host. The owner’s passion was contagious. He raved about the **Saturday Mixed Grill**—a sizzling platter of Wagyu steak (meltingly tender), plump grilled shrimp, and salmon with a smoky char. We couldn’t resist. But first: **Pesca Margaritas**. Tangy, balanced, and rimmed with intrigue (was that a hint of chili salt?), they set the tone for what was coming. Our server, a cocktail and cuisine connoisseur, guided us through appetizers. We trusted his picks—**tuna tartare** with crispy plantain chips (a textural marvel) and **grilled octopus** paired with a zesty citrus salad. For wine, the list is concise but expertly curated; his suggestion of a bright Spanish Albariño cut through the richness of the seafood flawlessly. The mixed grill? A showstopper. The Wagyu lived up to its hype, the shrimp were succulent, and the salmon—moist and herb-kissed—won over even my skeptical teen. Portions were generous, prices shockingly reasonable for the quality. No “mortgage dinner” vibes here—just hearty, skillfully prepared dishes that feel like a splurge without the guilt. It’s the details: the owner’s hands-on charm, the staff’s genuine enthusiasm, and cocktails that outshine pricier mixology bars. Even the “short” wine list proved thoughtful—no filler, all hits. And that tagline? *“Expect the unexpected”* nails it. From the creative twists on classics to the wallet-friendly luxury, Pesca keeps you delightfully off-balance. Pesca is a triumph—a place where stellar food, vibrant energy, and affordability collide. Whether you’re a local or just passing through Trinity Groves, don’t miss this spot. We’re already plotting our return… maybe next time for Sunday brunch?

My husband and I stopped by randomly and found I favorite restaurant in Trinity Groves! The drinks, appetizers, the meal, even the dessert was 5 stars! The staff was so helpful too!

Absolutely a gem. Amazing oysters Rockefeller and the blackened catfish and crab was exquisite. Service was amazing and can’t even imagine a better experience. A must if you want great seafood and fantastic service. A thousand stars.

From the ambiance to the service, we were pleasantly surprised with the experience we had at this establishment! My boyfriend and I decided to try this spot as it's newer to our neighborhood (art park) and they just implemented a Happy Hour! I will say I'm so glad we did! The Happy hour menu is active Tuesday-Friday from 3-7pm which was perfect for us. The entire Happy hour menu is under 10$. The only thing that confused us was that the menu said "bar only" but luckily enough we were able to grab two seats! The cocktails were the star of the show, specifically the Carajillo! The bartender was so nice and very attending! He also made it apparent to have a conversations with us! Which we always love! For food we ordered the chicken sliders, chimichurri fries, ceviche (not on happy hour), and I also tried their shrimp shooter! The ceviche was so refreshing! The serving size isn't too big for 14$ but overall the taste was amazing and fresh! The sliders were bigger than expected and paired with the fries made for the perfect serving for dinner! We got to try all the Happt Hour cocktails and loved all of them, but like I said, if you try anything GET THE CARAJILLO!! Probably the best I've ever had in the city!! We will definitely be back, especially because they will also be taking over the art park bar on the weekends! How cool is that!!

The place seemed clean and well operated. The service was quick and attentive. We ordered quite a few things to really try this place out. First was calamari and sangria. The calamari was nice and thick with two creamy sauces for dipping. The grilled lemon was a nice touch. The sangria was nice and light. For our mains we did the combo louis salad and lobster roll. The salad was well dressed but lacked a little punch. I fresh lemon squeeze would have been nice since it was kind of rich. The lobster roll is served warm with clarified butter. It needed some salt, but otherwise was delicious. I think I prefer the cold version with mayo but I don't think they offer that. Fries were crisp and tender. We don't live close enough to give this place another shot soon. If we're in the area we would consider it though.

Well prepared food. The lobster roll needed a little salt. They provided clarified butter for dipping the roll and also gave an extra side of dressing for the Louie salad automatically. Service was good, never ran out of anything. The vibes inside are elevated and chill, 2000s music Playlist was inviting.

Lovely place Super cute decor GREAT service. The food was on point Pork belly ceviche is not to be missed Same for the croquettes! Good wine recommendations Will definitely return... I hope that they can open the double French doors and figure out a way to have a patio out front.. that would push my review to 5 stars

Took forever to get our drinks, about a good 20 minutes. Appetizer came out before the drinks. There were only 2 tables in there. By the time our drinks came I was over it. Ambiance is nice and clean. Super friendly staff. Not very knowledgeable of the menu. I may come back and give it another try idk

Excellent attentive service. Seafood entrees selections were fresh. Sides were flavorful.

Checked out Pesca for brunch and it was great! Cocktail list looked great. Nice ambience and fantastic service - everyone was so nice! Loved the shrimp crepes and the blackened catfish was good too. We'll be back!

We had dinner at Pesca last night and it was delicious. We got to visit with the owner, Jesus, and he was very friendly and their service was great. I would highly recommend the Oysters Rockefeller as they were very creamy, tasty and decadent. We also had the blackened catfish and the Texas red snapper and they were excellent. In addition, I also had a drink (Guilty Pineapple) they changed up a bit for me, but it was half tequila, half mescal, pineapple juice and agave nectar which I'd rate a 10. We also had a Pescarita rimmed with Tajin which my wife said was the best drink she ever had. The place is new...check it out!

Food and service were great! Our waiter made very good recommendations! The ambiance is very nice and comfortable. Great date night!

Such a good experience at Pesca! The clam chowder soup was tasty along with the calamari and other items we ordered. Can't wait to come back and try the other items on the menu. Wonderful service.

Amazing cocktails and food! Decided to stop by since we love Milagros and it's the same owner! Did not disappoint! 10/10

I'm usually picky when it comes to seafood, but everything we ordered was incredibly fresh and bursting with flavor from the Oysters Rockefeller to the mango habanero shrimp. The shrimp shooters were such a fun, tasty twist, and the lobster roll was the star for me. If you're a seafood lover, this spot is a must-visit.

My first time at Pesca Coastal for dinner last night and the food was divine!! I ordered the Grilled Salmon Succotash and it was delicious. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Can't wait to go back!!

The food here has so much flavor. Had the Calamari and a cup of Clam Chowder. Incredible! Restaurant has great style and wonderful staff.

We went back and tried their brunch. Once again everything was delicious. We also tried their new bread pudding and it was amazing.

I ordered what they called The Florida Lobster Roll. They used a regular roll. Cut a small hole and filled it with tiny disgusting smashed shrimp. What a rip off! If you use the word lobster give me lobster. Don't expect the awful seasoning to fool anybody.

We went on the opening night. Everything we ordered was excellent. My favorites were the oysters Rockefeller and the catfish with crab entree. The service was extremely friendly and provided good recommendations. Only hiccup was a delay in getting entrees. We wrote it off to a first night glitch, but they made up for it by comping us a dessert. The ambiance was that of a coastal "local favorite" type restaurant. Prices were very reasonable. We'll be back!

My parents and I went to the opening night of Pesca on 12/13. We saw and talked to the owner, Jesus. He was so welcoming and warm, the food was EXCELLENT and absolutely DELICIOUS! Our server, Felix, was also incredible. So knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The service he provided was fabulous! The overall ambiance of the place was so pleasant, we will definitely be back! I highly recommend the pork belly ceviche and the oysters! I hope to see Pesca on DDD one day!

My wife and I had dinner here over the weekend. We sat at the bar and my wife ordered one of their house cocktails and really liked it. I ordered a non menu cocktail and it was so so, but that's on me. We started off with the calamari and was it amazing! Can't go wrong with this. For dinner she had the lobster roll with the skinny fries and the asparagus from my dinner. I had the catfish with smashed garlic potatoes and they were both amazing! We also shared the Mac n cheese which was really good also. Carlos was at the bar and was super friendly and knowledgeable. Met the owner too and overall a great experience and will definitely go back soon!

Hands down best customer service we have had in a while. From the hostess to the waiter, everyone was so welcoming and nice. The food was great and the Mexico City style michelada was the best! Def will be coming back!

Y'all-- this place is awesome. Food is delicious. First time I was here, I had the oysters Rockefeller and lobster roll. Second time I had the same appetizer and the red snapper with lemon caper sauce. Drinks are delicious, and they make to order. Hubby loved the Mexico City style Michelangelo and the criminal pineapple was delightful. Service is excellent. On top of things but not overly invasive. Give them a chance if you're in the area. Especially if you're craving fish dishes.
