- BCBigCheeseHawaii •17 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoHad a great time at Pacifica, as always. The shrimp was devine, the braised beef was, as usual, exceptional.. I had two white russian drinks and unlike other places, the drinks were mixed exceptionally well. Next, the server was very attentive to my needs and brought out water, bread, etc. at exactly the right time. I was on business this meal, meeting with the Manager, but even if I wasn't, the service would have still been great. The seafood here is very tasty, the ambiance is very nice (moon-lit, heaters on, a great visual....), and the service is the best. Trust me when I say, you simply cannot go wrong here. And I've never experienced a poor meal or poor service here. I highly recommend.More infoPacifica Seafood RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Palm Desert•4.6
