Pacific Catch- "Found Around the Pacific" Cuisine It's been a long time since I last visited Pacific Catch. I had a hard time describing its menu until I read their website! There's Korean, Hawaiian, Mexican and American influences all throughout their menu. The reason is they are bringing all cuisines around the Pacific Ocean into their shop- very cool. Everything was tasty and the portion are hearty. Happy Hour menu looks good and their bar area seating is generous with huge TVs! read more

Live band, great music of all genres. Great food. I had the Korean BBQ ribs and steak, subbed the rice for fries with the egg and Brussels sprouts. Hubby had the lobster roll with seabass skewers and salad. Kids had teriyaki bowl and California roll. The Sincere Cider is $10 PER CAN. and we were able to charge our car for free. read more

Pacific Catch is a chain of California seafood-based restaurants, with a touch of Hawaiian influence. We have frequented the Walnut Creek location multiple times, and the San Francisco one once or twice on our trek back across the city after running Bay to Breakers. We've never had a bad experience. Food, service, ambiance, all good. This Walnut Creek location is located on South Main St., across from The Cooperage and the new Original Joe's. The restaurant is always clean and inviting. They have a nice outside seating area, great for warm nights. But with the current icy weather, even with a tarp enclosure, heaters, and a fire going, it's too cold to sit outside. On our most recent visit, we had the salmon, tuna, and hamachi 'tacos' on a crispy nori 'shell', and the macaroni salad side. All tasty. They have an extensive menu, but we kept it light this time. All kinds of non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverage options, and a full bar. The ladies working here yesterday on Friday night should be given a raise along with hazard pay for some of the clientele they work with. There was a 'gentleman' who may have had a bit much, babbling non-stop and trying to, let's say, order off-menu. They handled him like pros, and didn't let him bother us too much. On our most recent visit they also had live music, which I'm not normally a fan of, but here it was actually at a reasonable volume, and nice to have in the background without being overwhelming. All in all, a pretty solid spot in downtown WC when you're in the mood for seafood or just a place to hang out over drinks. read more

We have been to this location a few times now. Nice patio area tonight with excellent live music, but way too cold. Music had a latin flair with bongos, ukulele and subtle vocals. We grabbed a spot at the bar and I bounced to the restroom. On my return is some shaggy haired, scruffy beard, christmas themed stocking hat dude chatting up the servers and my partner about stupid stuff. Upon my arrival and him asking if I shopped at thrift stores he turned 100% of his attention to the ladies behind the bar. Loud, obnoxious, rude, demeaning and more. Not sure why he wasn't asked to leave. We had the Hawaian Mac and Cheese and the 3 Nori Tacos with tuna, salmon and hamachi. All very good. More Hawaiian Mac & Cheese in the order please. My partner opted for a cider and I spied some Partida Reposado on the top shelf. Excellent tequila. As the night went on with "Mr. I like to hear myself talk and harass lady staff" we did find out he was asked to leave but wanted to finish his beer first which he nursed forever. We did a pretty good job of not letting him destroy the taste of the food. He eventually left. At one point we were going to move down a few stools or to a table but opted not to unsure of how unstable he was. So far just obnoxious and presumed harmless. I am surprised management let him stay and harass the female staff for as long as he was able to. Still we will be back. read more

This place has upscale seafood but without the upscale price! Super affordable food and the great presentation of the food is also a nice touch. I definitely see myself coming here for a quick bite or even date night while not trying to break the bank. Ordered so much food, didn't have room for dessert. Definitely need to go back! Also our waitress was super friendly and helpful and told us all the specials and new items! read more

I really enjoyed this restaurant! I went here to grab lunch with a friend and everything was great. We shared the Pupu Platter and I loved everything included. The guaca-poke was delicious! There were only 2 of us and the portions were good enough to share. I wasn't too pleased with my choice of entree but that just gives me another reason to come back to try other stuff. I didn't like what I ordered which was the sea bass with the chimichurri sauce, kimchi fried rice, and Brussels sprouts. The kimchi fried rice was salty. Drinks were yummy, I ordered the spicy Pacific and it had the perfect amount of spice. The service was good and the ambiance is perfect for date night or a dinner with friends. I'll definitely be back! read more

I have came here before and enjoyed the food. But this time my plate wasn't as good it lacked flavor. The ribs were delicious just as before. The drinks here are always very good. One concern last time I dined here we were sat under a flickering light and were able to move seats because it wasn't busy. This time we were sat under that same table and it was bothering me and we were unable to be moved since seating was unavailable. I also felt rushed by our server and he just didn't seem to be having a good day overall based on his service provided to us. read more

100 Orders Later - Still Our Favorite Spot! We want to express our heartfelt appreciation for the incredible team at Pacific Catch, Walnut Creek. After officially placing our 100th order, it's safe to say we're loyal fans -- and for good reason! The food is consistently delicious, fresh, and thoughtfully prepared. Every single time. Whether it's a casual family dinner or a post-workout meal, Pacific Catch has been our go-to spot. One of the things we've appreciated most over the years is their attention to detail -- especially when it comes to allergies or dietary sensitivities. The team always reaches out if there's a note on our order to make sure everything is prepared correctly. That kind of care and consistency is rare, and it means a lot. A few months back, I reached out to let them know we were approaching our 100th order, and Gianni from Guest Services responded with a thoughtful and enthusiastic message. When we finally hit that milestone this past weekend, Gabriel the General Manager personally called us to say they were celebrating with us -- and surprised us by comping our 100th meal as a thank you for our loyalty. Such a kind and generous gesture! Thank you, Pacific Catch Walnut Creek, for feeding our family so well over the years. Here's to the next 100! read more

We usually enjoy our dinning experience at Pacific Catch. This specific Pacific Catch branch surprised us, not in a good way. Restaurant was not super busy, for a Sunday night. We got seated pretty quickly. We got the Korean BBQ with steak, and spicy green curry salmon. Food tasted great as usual. But the egg on the korean BBQ dish was not cooked properly, and we only saw this forward the end as my husband usually saves the egg to eat at the end I saw the uncooked egg white after he already took a few bites. We let the waiter know the egg was not cooked properly, and he didn't do much other than just a measly apology that did not seem sincere at all. The rest of our evening was ruined because the uncooked egg caused some serious stomach issue while we were out running errands. read more

Made reservation online for Thanksgiving dinner. Sat quickly and greeted with a smile. Kevin was our server and we ordered the nina colada a cider and the pupu platter to start. Ribs were ok and curry coconut shrimp were unique but dry, guacamole was good. The lobster roll was moist and I loved the side salad! Best thing we ate tonight! The grilled lobster tail was too tough to eat. It cost $39 and they refunded us only half. I was most excited to try their mango sticky rice and the menu states lemon sorbet. It was served with vanilla ice cream and mango was not completely ripe so a bit bitter. The worst was the purple rice that was not cooked and still crunchy! It was not edible! So we decided to try the pumpkin pie and they served it to us COLD! Our server decided to disappear so we were disappointed with the service too. I had to walk up front to get rung out! Do not recommend! Very expensive! We even found a wet cleaning rag on our booth behind our head that was left out. Music was nice and had a relaxed casual ambiance but cannot recommend unless you only order the lobster roll. read more

Located on Main at Broadway Plaza, free parking so we parked in B2 level. The atmosphere is spacious and service is great! The portions are humongous! We ordered the West Coast salmon bowl and baja cod tacos. The salmon was piping hot and delish. Only con is if you park in the garage, you cannot take the elevator back down to the lot. You have to taje the stars. They won't allow outsiders to use the elevator going down. But you can use it going up to the street level. read more

I want to thank the entire Pacific Catch team in Walnut Creek from the bottom of my heart for making my birthday weekend so special and memorable. From the warm welcome at the front to the chefs in the back--everyone did an incredible job, especially with the heat this past weekend! The service was top-notch, and the food was fresh and delicious as always. The team truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. If you're looking for a great spot to enjoy the summer, this is it. Amazing food, friendly people, and the kind of atmosphere that guarantees a good time. Don't miss out!! Huge shout out to Alfonso, Gabriel, Elfego, Alexi, Oscar, Jenny, and the entire team. read more

This is a Gem with Big Flavor Energy! Pacific Catch in Walnut Creek is one of those spots I find myself coming back to again and again--and for good reason. The vibe is relaxed but elevated, with an airy, coastal feel that makes you want to slow down and actually enjoy your meal. The staff is consistently warm and welcoming, and the food? So good. The menu is packed with variety, and whether I'm in the mood for Korean short ribs, Curry salmon or something off the grill, everything is fresh, flavorful, and full of creative twists that make it stand out. It's in a great location with plenty of parking--including a super convenient garage right below the building (yes, parking matters out here!). Seating has always been manageable, even on weekends, which is rare and very appreciated. This has officially become one of my favorite local spots--perfect for a casual date night, post-shopping bite, or a solo recharge session with great food. If you're in Walnut Creek--or even just passing through--add this to your must-try list. Trust me, your tastebuds will thank you. read more

This is my second time dining at this location and both time was great! The food is delicious. I had the Korean Bbq with steak and everything in it was so yummy especially the Brussel sprouts!

Unexpectedly Amazing Experience at Pacific Catch - 5 Stars! I stopped by Pacific Catch in Walnut Creek around 5:30 PM after nearly a year abroad. The moment I walked in, I asked the hostess--Rodaba--if I could use the restroom. Now, let me tell you, she gave me this sharp, slightly feisty look, with eyebrows raised and lips pursed like she had memorized the guest policy word-for-word. She told me, "Restrooms are for guests only." I get it--rules are rules--but I told her I'm a regular, just haven't been around lately due to travel. Her expression didn't change much, but I could tell she was a little skeptical... and maybe slightly annoyed when I asked if she could check with the manager. (LOL, sorry Rodaba!) To my surprise, she did check in with Manager Gabriel, and once she confirmed, she graciously let me use the restroom. That moment turned from tension to a spark--I swear, Rodaba gave me this deep, locked-in stare, the kind of stare that makes time slow down. Mesmerizing, intense, and honestly... unforgettable. After that brief adventure, I returned and told her I'd try the bar. Only two seats were open, neither appealing, so I came back and asked her for a table for two--my son was joining me. Without missing a beat, she led us to the back patio, offering a few options. We chose a shaded table in a quiet corner--perfect spot. Then came Evelin, our server, who was absolutely wonderful. Friendly, upbeat, and informative. She walked me through the menu like I was a first-timer all over again. I went with a Trumer Pils (German Pilsner), a Coke, and their always-satisfying Fish and Chips. The ambiance was lively, with live music filling the patio, great energy all around, and top-tier service from both Rodaba and Evelin. That initial spark of feistiness turned into a fun, memorable welcome back. It was an experience full of personality, flavor, and great vibes--Pacific Catch still has it, and I'll definitely be back much sooner this time. read more

Fabulous crispy fish tacos! A thick golden fried cod fillet nestled on a bed of cabbage slaw in a light taco shell. The cod wins! The best fish tacos I've ever had, and they're always to die for. Cool and not crowded on a beautiful, warm Sunday afternoon, and we could hear ourselves talk even in the bar. I brought a friend who normally isn't big on Western cuisine. He loved it! read more

Just finished shopping in the area I and wanted to get some grub so here I am. I ordered the watermelon margarita and the mixed catch. The margarita was good and I liked the watermelon attachment. The mixed catch was delicious. The Alaskan cod was moist. The Thai coconut shrimp was crispy. The calamari was also good because it wasn't oily. The sauces that go with the seafood were also a nice add on. The miso side salad was very fresh. The Cole slaw was alright, pretty standard. The service here was good also. I was seated very quickly and the food came out pretty fast. The portions were also huge. The inside of the restaurant is bright. They also have outside seating with heaters outside. The bathroom is also clean. As a side the parking in the area is free also. This is a nice spot to go to if you want great food, cocktails, and solid service. read more

I'm always very happy and impressed with my food at pacific catch. The waiters have always been so amazing and helpful and the waitress didn't mind splitting my check today to what I needed. She was so sweet and made sure we had a lovely time and I loved how we could just chill and enjoy ourselves and we weren't rushed out after we paid. We sat there another hour after we paid.

I appreciate the honestly. A restaurant in California should only service fresh guacamole if they have it on their menu IMHO read more

Great experience & surprised how much I enjoyed this restaurant! I am not a seafood fan, but my cousin wanted this for our birthdays so I agreed. It was a Friday, so they had live music, and the band played well, the kids were even keeping a beat! We were a group of 10 and the restaurant was able to give us a nice big table. Our server, Oscar was very attentive, funny, accommodating and right on time with filling glasses and service for all our needs. The food came out QUICK! Honestly we did not wait for anything. We had chips and guacamole, coconut shrimp and sticky ribs appetizer. The chips were a little thick, but everything else was so delicious! One of the boys actually ordered a second coconut shrimp to eat for himself! The other boy finished off all the ribs. I had the spicy chicken tacos, black beans and sweet potato fries. The slaw was slightly sour, jalapeños not hot and the chicken, charred just slightly to perfection! Great flavor in the beans, I don't know how they were seasoned but since I couldn't finish my dinner I wanted to take all of it. Oscar even gave me a small bowl w a lid! Everyone loved and finished their food. Portions were big, presentation appetizing and we were fully supported! 100% slam dunk on service and food. Would definitely return! read more

We were out this way for a concert and wanted to grab a bite. We were able to find parking on the street at about 5 PM and we are immediately seated. My friend and I hadn't seen each other in a while so we're catching up and the server checked on us frequently but allowed us time to chat as well. The food came quickly and was delicious Seabass 10 out of 10. I totally recommend the skewers. We both had the Hawaiian chicken bowls, and even though we opted for the smaller size, it was still a lot of food. Everything was cooked well and seasoned well. I definitely go back and have that again. It's a nice location and offers outdoor seating. read more

Terrible food experience at way too much of a cost. A group of us recently went here, fairly busy but we had a reservation. Staff was extremely friendly and attentive and the only reason this isn't a 1 star review. I had been here 6 months ago and I was so impressed with the food that I suggested it to the group. I ordered the taco platter with 3 tacos (fish or beef) - I ordered the sea bass taco and 2 beef. The menu did not state there was a price difference but apon receiving the bill I was charged an additional charge for each spicy beef taco, which is extremely frustrating. My tacos were terrible, the sea bass was the fishiest fish I have ever tasted and it was completely inedible. The beans were okay but the salad was terrible with the miso dressing. So basically I just ate two little and barely filled beef tacos for $28. My friend ordered the Korean barbecue ribs and the sauce was so potently salty that they were inedible, she shared a bite with the others in my party and none of us could eat them because they were so salty. They then brought her replacement ribs with no sauce but put the same exact salty sauce on the side. Absolute waste of money here. The food was terrible and I, unfortunately, will never be coming back. read more

I got food poisoning and was hospitalized after dining at Pacific Catch (Walnut Creek) on Friday, October 3rd, after ordering the market fish. I immediately reached out via email to their office but never received a reply. I also called and spoke with the manager at the Walnut Creek location, who said he would investigate and get back to me, but it's been almost a week and I still haven't received any follow-up. I'm extremely disappointed by the lack of responsibility and communication regarding such a serious health incident. I expected much better customer care and accountability from a restaurant of this reputation. read more
