Reviews for Pacific Cafe in San Francisco, CA
Fantastic atmosphere. Incredible food. Superb service. Possibly the best garlic butter snapper I have ever had. Tartar sauce and... Ceasar salad were also phenomenal. 5 stars. Read more
We had the time of our lives here! They weren?t taking bookings, but if you didn?t mind waiting, they served complimentary wine... in the lobby - never letting your glass run out, whilst you made banter with other waiting patrons! So unexpected, and so muchfun! Once inside, we enjoyed the yummiest seafood and friendly hospitality. Read more
An upfront unique offering upon entering was a complimentary wine for to be seated guests. This itself shows great confidence... and guest experience of the restaurant. Each table was then offered a half load of nicely baked bread, i believe it wassourdough(?). It was nicely paired with chunky butter on the side that I noted very well of. I asked for recommendations andPetrale Sole Newburg came up. Naturally, I went with it. It was a dish of Fish stuffed with Crab meat in the inside. It camewith a very nice sauce, but watery in the inside. If it was filled with more flavor, it would have been better. The dish itselfwas unique, but crab meat texture was soggy and couldnt really taste the chunkiness of a crab meat from the ocean. It was adelicious pairing with the rice that was very nice, but i thought that improvements can still be made. The clam chowder, wasmore on the watery side than the thick creamy chowder I had across Toronto, Chicago, Seattle and Boston. It was well seasonedbut more to a watery soup than I woukd have liked a chowder. Nonetheless, my time in the meal was short but service was greatwhen they offered another loaf of bread (it was delicious) and whenever they came to check on me. Long queue formed when ifinish, so do make reservations if possible or drop by early. Read more
A wonderful place that lives up to the hype. How much nicer can you get to have a beautiful glass of wine in your hand gratisse... while you're waiting for your table while smelling the delicious aromas of superb seafood being prepared. The wait staff feelslike family, and everything we tasted surpassed our expectations. And if you are going to splurge on bread, know that even thisis a treat to be savored. Definitely looking forward to our next visit! ???? Read more
If I could give it 10 stars I would. Well worth the 30 minute wait as you get served free wine which makes time pass in a whizz.... Such a homey feel to the place with the staff being super friendly and long standing. I would recommend this to everyone Read more
It was just amazing experience overall! Free wine and bread, well there is 8 usd couvert though but the wine was refilled three... times so whatever. I had Swordfish and that was just excellent, I had no idea how Swordfish should taste but I bet this is itand my friend confirmed. Best seafood I ever had. Love it! Nice and very friendly personnel, cozy atmoshere. I just cant findanything I miss. Well done, fingers crossed for all this Covid era to survive and keep this place alive for next generations.Greetings from the Czech Republic! Read more
Great atmosphere. Usually busy. You get a free glass of wine though if waiting for a table. Proof of vaccination required. Hard... to find parking in this neighborhood. I had their Dungeness Crab cakes and it taste very ordinary. There?s only a very fewplaces where you can find a mouth-watering super delicious crab cakes and this is not the place unfortunately. There was reallynothing exciting of the dishes we have tried but the whole experience wasn?t a disappointment. The staff were friendly and therestroom was clean. Read more
