Reviews for Pacifica Del Mar in Del Mar, CA

We were told that the Sugar Spiced Salmon Hash is one of the restaurants top dishes. I can see why. The dish had excellent... flavor. The salmon was well marinated and perfectly cooked. Potatoes were also delicious and seasoned to perfection.Unfortunately, the poached eggs were overcooked. There was hardly any runny yolk. I also tried the Achiote Short Rib Hash. Itwasn’t as good as the Sugar Spiced Salmon Hash. The short rib was overcooked and a little bland. The potatoes wereundercooked. The broccoli was very overpowering. It was concealing the star of the dish. The eggs, thankfully, were cookedperfectly. The sauce had nice texture and flavor. The winner clearly is the Salmon Hash. Read more

We kept saying, "Wow!" Best Bluefin Tuna Poke ever! Savory Short Ribs! Sweet Halibut with a touch of spice! Excellent service... and ocean view. Perfect in every way. Possibly the best meal anywhere. Read more

I've definitely been here before a few times and always had a great experience. The food is great and the view is fun! This time... however, it could not have been more obvious that the cuts of fish and food in general was at least down by a 30%. The size ofour very pricey mahi-mahi and swordfish was alarmingly small. It was fine that the dessert was tiny because it was super richand quite good. Don't get me wrong the flavor of the food was great, but we were done in 15 minutes LoL So it was definitelyleaving a lot to be desired and may have worked if I was on a calorie restrictive diet, but for the price I definitely expectedmore. Our server was very kind as was everyone else who helped on the staff! Read more

A great experience from beginning to end. They kept our water glasses filled at all times. A very wide variety of drink... selections. I had an Old Fashioned and it was perfect. For dinner I had the Salmon which was cooked medium. The flavors andportions were very well done. It was my birthday dinner and they brought out a creme brulee. They have valet parking directlybehind or paid parking on the opposite side of the street. Read more

Great service. Food was absolutely delicious. Highly recommended to anyone in the greater SD area to try. calimari was crispy... and the dipping sauces were great. The braised short ribs were mouth watering. Sampled some other food from others pates and allwas a hit. Not to mention food with a view. Great all around. Definitely will repeat. Read more

Absolutely amazing restaurant. Such a nice ambiance and beautiful ocean view. They have a great drink selection, the menu is... small but nicely curated. Not sure there was many vegetarian options unfortunately. I got the sea bass and it was delicious,probably the best fish I’ve ever had, it was so flavorful and tender. The waitress was amazing, she was so nice and helpful.We got a lemon tart for dessert and it was delicious. It was pretty expensive but worth it. Read more

It’s nice to dine in at a patio with nice ocean views. Pacifica is somewhere has beautiful ocean views. We went there at Labor... Day for brunch, and I made a reservation on their website. We sat at a table on the patio, it’s very pretty here, clean andocean modern style. We ordered a short rib hash for my husband and huevos for myself. Both of the dishes are delicious, thepotion is not very big, but good enough to avoid to take out the leftovers. I think it’s a nice place, plus the service isnice and quick. Read more

The scallops and the seabass, both dishes were incredibly delicious. Highly recommended ???? We dined in the outdoor patio where... you also get to enjoy ocean views, and if lucky, a gorgeous sunset! Read more
