Pacific Catch

Came here for birthday dinner for my boyfriends birthday and it was very delicious! I ordered the Japanese Wasabi bowl with Hawaiian Poki and it was very yummy! A lot of food I barely ate a third. Super filling, and I liked that it had a variety of items on it. It had ginger, seaweed, avocado, veggies, and the Poki with lots of rice! I loved the Poki! I also had the tempura shrimp roll and it was very good as well. I enjoyed my dinner tonight. Service was fast, the waiter was so kind and friendly and helpful! Had a great experience!

Went here on a Sunday night around 9, there was no wait and the place was nice and quiet.
Had the mixed catch which was fried cod, fried oysters, fried shrimp and fries which were all good.
The wife had some taco dish that was great. The kids had some rice bowl with salmon and another one that was poke which both were very good.
Our server was nice and did an excellent job with service.

Great service and a wide variety of menu options. High quality and nice presentation make this a great dinner date and they have happy hour options as well. Nice ambiance and very clean, food come out quickly and is fair in price and portion size. I had the 3 taco plate with the fried and grilled Mahi and it was tasty and came with a side of chips. Kids meals are generous as well, I really loved my kids chicken strips and the fries are excellent as well. Nice stop in the area, worth returning

This review base on foods only.
Went back for lunch. Food today was not impress at all.
I ordered 2 tacos platter and my husband ordered fish and chips.
I had grilled mahi mahi tacos. Lack of taste, fish was very hard (seemed like they were left over)
Taco shells were dry and I could not even bite. So I didn’t eat the shells. The sauce on tacos was good. The salad was good but not tacos!
My husband said the same thing about hid fish and chips.

Bumpin it up another star! Good quality service and good food definitely shines through!
Came with a coworker for my first HH experience here and whew it’s packed! The bartender was nice and let us order magaritas though we were a couple minutes past 6, so bonus brownie points! Dining area was also extemely packed (with a line outside) so we just waited at the bar and sipped on our drinks while we waited for our buzzer to go off. Ended up only being a 20 minute wait so not bad.
Sat down and immediately had a stare down with the menu… I was hungry but only wanted an appetizer to go with my beer (second drink even a question ona Friday night?). I got the korean sticky ribs and my friend got the fried calamari. Sweet, tangy, and tender these ribs are (so much it brought out my inner yoda. Star wars fan anyone?). I didn’t try the calamari (since I don’t really like squid) but it looked crispy and sauces creamy and. yes tempting. especially the chipptle aiole.
Our waiter kept on checking up on us and even made small talk/​jokes with us. Five-​star service-​you rock!

Finally finally got a chance to try this local Pac. Catch location and I can safely say it was pretty similar to the other ones I’ve been to. I know it has been open here for quite sometime but somehow I ended up trying the San Mateo and Mountain View locations before even this one which is closest to home. Wait was roughly 30 – 35 minutes on a Friday night and the location itself isn’t as seemingly large as San Mateo or even Mountain View. It gets very crowded here, they are one of the newer desirable restaurants to eat at in the vicinity. The had a seasonal drink menu available in which I thoroughly enjoyed. It was an Apple something drink with Makers Mark in it, very strong and delicious.
I remember enjoying the Island Taco platter once in San Mateo here so I opted for that as well here. I am not really a huge fan of Poke or salads, so I went with that. I got the Two Tacos with seasoned fries and black beans. I got the Baja and Mahi Mahi, it was pretty good. Maybe not the best fish tacos I’ve had in the whole world but good. The enjoyed the black beans and fries too, the server brought me ketchup which wasn’t already at the table. Quick service at the tables and pretty attentive. The only thing about this location is that the tables are set quite close to one another so it is very noisy and not spaced out more like the other locations I have been to.

I have been here quite a few times with business colleagues during the lunch hour. Each time has been really good service and food. If you are coming during the lunch hour be prepared for a small wait as they fill up quickly between 12 – 1. The outside are is always open but not as pleasant when it is cold outside. Pretty much everything on the menu is delicious from the sushi, fried fish and sandwiches. My personal favorite is the 3 piece Alaskan cod fish n chips. They also have a wide drink selection but unfortunately no drinking is allowed for me during business hours.

The fried oysters are my favorite and the california poke. The cocktails are delicious though.

Salmon salad there was so bomb! so bomb! so bomb! The first time experience of eating here was fantastic. Foods we ordered like poke trio and salmon salad came out quickly and they also gave out free Asian crackers with complementary sparkling water. Our server was really nice and friendly too. My friend tried it at the one in San Francisco, so this is like a chain restaurant (I think). However, I was surprised that food quality and service are both beyond expectations :)

I am in love with their poke rice and salad bowl. Hawaiian poke with half brown rice and half salad. Bowl is huge and extremely filling. While you may feel like you’ve gorged and eaten way too much after, the food is actually very natural and healthy especially when you put the sauce on the side. To be honest, you don’t even need the sauce. The ingredients are all so flavorful on their own.
I’ve also tried the mixed catch basket which I look at as more of an appetizer than a meal. The fried oysters are friggin delicious. Crispy on the outside and super juicy on the inside.
Only downside is the price… it’s a wee bit spensives but some days, you just gotta spend some extra dollars for fud.

First review of 2o16! If you know me, I love good food with excellent customer service. The Pacific Catch definitely met my standards of what delicious food and great service!
The restaurant is nice and big in the Pruneyards in Campbell. If you go at peak hours, parking may be a little more difficult because there are a lot of other restaurants shopping areas near the restaurant. Everything was nice and clean and everyone welcomed us with warm smiles and eagerness to help.
We ordered their ahi poke trio, coconut shrimp, their vegetarian roll, and their special of the day mango salad. The appetizers were served first (coconut shrimp and the mango salad) and everything was flavorful and fresh! The coconut shrimp was not battered too much with a nice crunch, while the mango salad paired well with fresh ingredients. I LOVE that you can sub brown rice for their rolls as well! They definitely did not skimp out on the veggies in the roll, and it still tasted really good with brown rice (which is kind of hard to do with a sushi roll).
I have to say however the Ahi poke trio really hit the spot for me! They have different types of poke you can try, and we had their original/​spicy/​salmon poke trio. Every one was super fresh and not over powering with marinade. The poke comes with some veggies and chips which balanced the whole thing very well.
Props to our server for always checking up on us and making sure we were having a great lunch. I really loved how everyone was all smiles and more than happy to check throughout my time there.
The Pacific Catch has definitely become one of my favorite restaurants that I’ll always come back to! Excellent food and service! What more can I ask for?

We were looking for a healthy place to eat in the Pruneyard, and this place looked like it fit.
I ordered the hawaiian rice plate with salmon. It was really good, though maybe way too much rice. But the toppings were still plentiful. Lots of veggies, and lots of flavor. Nothing was bland at all.
Beforehand they served us pretzel goldfish and edamame beans. We killed that, it was a nice start.
I really liked it here, and Lluvia made our experience the best!

I will come back for the food not for the service.
I had to wave at the server to get my order for drink and dinner. It could have been just my server but his tone of voice was very inattentive with zero smile.
However, thankfully their poke entrée salad is really fresh and delicious. I got their seared ahi entrée salad. The tuna was really fresh and they are generous on portion size for the ingredients.

The rice bowls here are amazing!
There’s always a large serving of meat, and the vegetables that come with it are varied. The bowl is huge, and I’m stuffed by the time I reach the bottom. For $ 16, it’s a great deal!
As a bonus, they offer complimentary bottled still or sparkling water. It makes you feel like you’re at a high-​end place without paying the high-​end prices!

They have a good variety of seafood dishes, but it’s mostly using fish and shrimp. There wasn’t any lobster, abalone, scallops, geoduck and other higher end seafoods. I went with the japanese wasabi rice bowl with poke and seared ahi tuna. It was a pretty large bowl. The poke was decent and ahi was good. Rice was undercooked at spots. I ate some hard rice bits.
Others in my party ordered fish and chips that looked good. They said the breading to fish ratio was good too.

I’ve always to try this seafood/​Hawaiian restaurant even tho it’s a chain. it was Friday the 13^th n an early dinner was a welcome. I was hoping to make it to Happy Hour (Mon — Fri 4−6pm), but when I got there, the whole bar area was so full of ppl already. (damn!) it didn’t seem like anyone was leaving anytime soon so I just asked for a seat in the dining area. I’ll have to try to race there earlier next time.
the location is in the Pruneyard Plaza in downtown Campbell where Sports Basement is. there r plenty of parking spaces including a garage in the back with a large «public parking» sign hanging. it’s still pretty hard to find parking during the dinner hour tho so plan to drive directly to the parking garage!
the service was above average. the hostess in the front could’ve smiled more, but maybe she wasn’t having the greatest day. I’ll give her that. but our waitress was so accommodating to us. we felt really taken care of. we were seated in the patio area but I was so hot from the 2 heat lamps facing me, I asked her to maybe turn them down. (my face was starting to burn!) she immediately turned them off for me. n during our time there, she came by to asked how everything was going more than once. loved that!
Complimentary pretzel gold fish n edemame: who doesn’t like complimentary food? I finished all the edemame. the gold fish was ok. it was nice to snack on something first tho.
Cod n Mahi Mahi Fish Tacos: these were just meh. I like the Original Fish Tacos at Rubio’s so much better.
Korean Sticky Ribs: these were amazing! the sauce was both sticky n sweet as advertised. it wasn’t tender fall off the bone, but still good pork. would order that again.
Fried Coconut Shrimps: kinda tasted like the ones they have at Red Lobster. crunchy outer shell. they did devein them so that is a plus.
oh their Tahiti beer was nice. I should’ve ordered a ceviche. next time! n the Daily Catch menu in the front entrance had some yummy food choices also. I would try that Cioppino next time for sure.

I’ve been to a couple Pacific Catch locations and have enjoyed them each time! The atmosphere is nice, but a little loud. The service has always been fast and friendly.
As a poke lover, I’ve gotten the trio under Hawaiian Poke each time. The price may be a bit overwhelming, but if you’re up for it, it’s definitely worth it. It’s basically two meals or enough to split between two people. And I’d recommend any of the fish on the list!
Will definitely be back sometime soon :)

I expected this to be a kitschy fast food-​ish place, but was pleased to be met with a nicely decorated sit down restaurant with solid service, good food, and a nice selection of beer and mixed drinks.
My one sore point was having booked the reservation for this meal on Opentable, and then receiving an email stating the restaurant had canceled my reservation 16 minutes before I arrived. They did get me a table by my reservation time, but I didn’t get my Opentable points.
That said, service was attentive, and there were no errors. Our waitress made recommendations that were spot on (Mai Tai and the Original poke dish). I enjoyed the Sunset Roll. I echo other reviewers who say the sweet potato fries are delicious; they are definitely a step above. It’s a big serving, though, so come ready to share. On the drink front, my dining partner recommends a specific beer: Heretic The Evil Twin.
I’m sticking around for the Ghirardelli ice cream sandwich next time… or I might go just for that.

I’ve always been curious to try Pacific Catch since I’ve always driven by the one in SF and also always walked by the one in San Mateo. Though I never would’ve imagined that my first time at a Pacific Catch would be at the Campbell location. I went here for lunch one weekend to celebrate my sister’s birthday and all I can say that after this first time at Pacific Catch, I can say that I’m now a fan.
The menu is pretty extensive with a variety of tacos, sandwiches, platters, and rice bowls. Being a novice to their menu, I scanned the Unilocal photos and the Japanese Wasabi Bowl with Hawaiian Poke seemed to be one of the more popular choices, so that’s what I went with.
Japanese Wasabi Bowl w/​Hawaiian Poke, ½ brown rice and ½ greens.
–
seaweed salad, avocado, daikon sprouts, cucumber, ginger, sesame seeds, shredded nori, soy-​wasabi sauce
At first I was a little worried that this bowl wouldn’t be enough for a hungry dude like me, but when it was set down in front of me, my worries were gone. This was a huge bowl of food! Going with the ½ brown rice and ½ greens option made the bowl very balanced and the Hawaiian Poke had very good texture and flavor as well. I’d totally order this again!
This location is a little far out there for me to visit on a frequent basis, but if you’re in the area, consider yourself lucky. It’s a very spacious restaurant with nice large patio for al fresco dining.
At least for me with this visit, I wouldn’t mind stopping over the San Mateo and SF locations that are closer to me now that I have a good understanding of their menu. And they have great Happy Hour specials that I’d like to go back for as well.

I came here for dinner the other night with a girl friend. I was surprised by the limited menu and the lackluster service. I was all set to order a sushi roll but they didn’t have soy paper so I went with the shrimp tacos. Asked for a side of thousand island dressing but they didn’t have that either. Thousand Island is one of the sauces that compliments seafood perfectly. How can a seafood restaurant not have it? It’s also made with 3 basic ingredients I would expect every restaurant to have on hand anyway.
I wonder if our server didn’t like me after that. We got our drinks, our food came out pretty quickly and then I ran out of soda and she passed our table several times without noticing or acknowledging us. I finally had to speak out and call her over to ask for a soda refill (I’d also purchased a $ 10 mixed drink (which IMO was very small) so it wasn’t like we were being stingy in ordering drinks). Food was okay. Would have been better if they had the things I wanted.
Once we were done with our meal, our server was no where to be seen. We waited and waited and finally we went up to the front host stand. «Thank you for coming!» the young lady cheerfully said. «Oh, we’re trying to pay… we haven’t seen our server in ages.» I say. Then I look to the right of the hostess and there is our server, on the phone. I felt really embarrassed. She looked really mad. I don’t know what was going on but we didn’t get good service and the food was just okay. Shrimp were very flavorful, tender and juicy though so that was nice. My friend Chris ate here (see his review) and didn’t like his shrimp tacos because they were drowning in sauce. I got mine without any sauce and the shrimp were very good. I think I had lettuce instead of cabbage and that was better too — it was a mixed baby greens or something.
Anyway, I might return if I’m in the area. They’re open until 11PM so that’s a plus, but if there’s somewhere else I can go I’ll probably try a new restaurant.
