Food is very good and the views are amazing. Always a great choice.

So I really wanted to love this place but ended up just liking it. The view is apparently spectacular, except it was pretty foggy when we were there - no worries though - this review does not blame the weather on the restaurant. The food was very good, and overall I would recommend for sure, the wine list was predominantly California, which limits options especially when looking for wine with more subtle variations.. Wait staff was very attentive although and responsive. One small hang up and this is to the manager - we ordered a two small plates, and a moderately expensive wine ($100) to start, by the time we got to the main course we were pretty full so we decided to order one entree, the salmon. We would have been fine bringing it out on one plate and us just eating off that, but your staff split the meal to two plates, which was thoughtful, but not necessary. We then ordered a dessert and I had Port to finish the night. Total check was just shy of $300. Overall good experience, when I get the check I noticed that you charged me $1 for a split meal charge. Honestly, split plate fees are an annoyance to me anyway and we tend not to eat at places that do this as it feels like a way to punish people for not overeating, but I get that some places may need to do so because people exploit the situation. But $1, seriously thats really annoying, clearly you don't need the $1 and it just cheapens the whole experience a bit, I could care less about the $1 and so should you on a bill that close to $300, You've already made you money on the wine. Anyway - leaves a bad taste.

I've celebrated many a birthday at Pacifica and always order the Sugar Snap Salmon and it is consistently excellent. I also treated myself to a nice glass of red wine (Saldo) and was surprised at the extremely light pour this time. View is usually excellent and we dine early to go see the live music on the Terrace.

The quality here seems to have declined a bit since before the pandemic. They nickel and dime you now as well. The waiter admitted it, that their business is down and seating capacity is limited, so they now charge for bread. A small house margarita was $14. The salmon entree is good, but $35 for a small piece of fish, which was a little overcooked, green beans and mashed potatoes...It was a $150+ meal and we felt rushed in and out.

Food was great, however the food come out very quick.

Two delicious dishes - sea bass and ahi - were highlights that were balanced by exceptional service from Baja! Oh, and the patio dining with great COVID protocols were surpassed by a brilliant sunset!

Always a favorite, always reliable for excellent food, service and oh that ambience. And Sunsets on the Pacific are hard to beat!

Very nice atmosphere. Friendly service

Great place for Ocean View dining. The food is always good and the drinks are cold.

Every visit is always incredible. The view is spectacular. The salmon is some of the best Ive ever ordered so tender and flavorful. The service is always top notch. Always a delight. Thursday nights are a treat with half off on a bottle of wine. Treat yourself to an amazing experience. Towards the weekend there's live music closeby in the plaza. Very romantic Cant pass up !

The view and atmosphere were amazing. Great location and service.

Great food, great view. Not cheap, but the food was very good. We split the grilled octopus appetizer which was excellent, followed by Halibut and Branzino equally as good!
The desserts were also tasty. We had the meyer lemon tart and the burnt cream (creme brulee). The only negative would be the bread rolls at $1.00 each. They were not very special and for the price of food, these should be complimentary.

That was great: nice service & tasty food

Service was horrendous, rude and indifferent. Drinks were poor. Food was not good.
This is a poor restaurant that is poorly managed.
Don't bother.

a lovely place for ocean-view dining; will definitely return

We went there for dinner on Thursday night with another couple. It was 1/2 price bottle of wine night. 3 of us had the sugar spiced salmon (beyond yummy) and 1 had the braised short rib that was so tender he could cut it with a fork. It was very good. The service was spot on. We had a great time and were treated to a spectacular sunset to boot! I highly recommend this restaurant.

Great place to eat outside with beautiful views. Food is pricey, but delicious.

Service seemed a bit slow. Others around us with different wait persons were being waited on and getting their orders in much more quickly. Other than that, the food was delicious, as always!

Superb service, exceptional cuisine and atmosphere that exceeded my expectations.

Food, service, location all outstanding. Chilean sea bass and Scallops were highlight of the meal.

Great special occasion dining or good happy hour small bites

A wonderful place to experience fine dining, exquisite food options, and a beautiful view when dining outside.

Happy birthday Nick

Beautiful view, delicious crab cake app, scallops were perfect. Great wine list and Thursday half priced bottles made it even better

Ambiance and service was fine. Relaxing and a nice breeze with outdoor seating. Cocktail drinks were very good. Disappointed that my fish was uncooked and tough and their new menu pricing is charging for a roll & butter.
All in all, a very desirable location.

Great food and service. The social distancing design was comfortable and made us feel secure.

Excellent as Always! Great food, great wait staff. Always look forward to dinner out here.

Food was ok and very pricey for what we got.

I loved the setting, the food was innovative, and uniquely presented, and delicious! Patio dinning, socially distanced, in a creative way. One suggestion, add a few ceiling fans, it got a little warm while the sun was setting...

Beutifual view but we weren't luck enough to sit by the window. The restaurant semi-outside patio as pretty full on Friday night. The seabass was excellent.

Anniversary dinner at the place we got engaged. Very nice. Excellent meal, wonderful view and service. Ten out of Ten.

Beautiful view.. service was slow. Food was just ok. Was hoping it was going to live up to expectations. Understanding everyone is struggling during COVID I hope they can recover

So delicious and a beautiful ambiance. Masks all around plexiglass separations between tables.

Absolutely the best restaurant in San Diego! Smoothly run and amazing food. Great staff, white linen feel with beach vibes and excellent food... San Diego at it’s best.

excellent service. Wonderful atmosphere. very enjoyable.

What more do you need?

Wanted this to be special
Seating... too close to big party that was loud and not well distanced
Food really only fair
Drinks... not so good

Our service was impeccable. Great experience!

Great view sitting out on the patio. The food was awesome and the service great!

Nice to see some places remain at the top whatever is happening outside the doors. Wonderful food, service, Pacifica is a reliable outstanding choice !
