We went for there ouster special. It was great. We ordered two side dishes. A crab cake and grilled octopus. All cooked well.
We sat at the bar and had THE BEST bartender! He made the night and experience so enjoyable! Delicious food, drinks, service, and ambiance. Will definitely be coming back!
Our first experience at Pescada was shortly after they opened and it was a disaster. We paid ridiculous prices for tiny portions and undercooked pork. We hadn't been back since but decided to give it another try based on favorable things we had heard. Things are much improved. The decor is gorgeous and we received excellent service. There are more choices on the menu now. Two of us ordered the halibut which was very good and others had the lobster risotto was rich but flavorful. I recommend the date appetizer but thought that the crab toast was bland. The salads are big enough to split. Pescada is definitely worth a try.
Sort of the last supper before closing for expansion and renovation. Excellent as always! We look forward to seeing the new space in the fall!
From the moment I stepped in, it felt like Poseidon himself had curated the menu. The ambiance was a perfect blend of sleek and sea-chic soft lighting, subtle ocean vibes, and a server so knowledgeable I’m convinced he was raised by dolphins. I started with the tuna tartare, which practically melted out of respect for my taste buds. Then the sea bass arrived crispy skin, flaky center, and plated like a work of modern art. Every bite was a well-rehearsed symphony of flavor. Even the lemon on my plate seemed to be there on purpose. Honestly, if this place were a religion, I’d be a devout follower
The menu is well thought out, it is creative and full of good surprises The seafood dishes are very good and the lobster risotto was amazing
Gorgeous place, service and food was lacking. Our server didnt keep us updated on the status of our food and we were there for about 2 hours total, waiting for more than an hour ti het our food. Then when we finally get our main course, one of my overpriced tortellini was empty? it was just the pasta shell with no stuffing in it but they made it look like it had food in it. With the price we were paying, I was expecting much better food and service.
First time coming to this restaurant and definitely the last. The night started off okay but quickly went downhill. Dan was our server and everyone at our table thought he had a problem with us. The service was slow and he barely interacted with our table. The food took a long time to come out and we were often left waiting for our waters to be refilled. The food was decent but way too overpriced. Overall a really disappointing night.
Jordan was our server; Nelson, Bryan, David and Carson helped make our evening the best dinner experience. Pescada and its current staff made our Thursday evening very special. I highly recommend ordering off-menu drinks from Jordan if it’s not too busy. He really made our night with the J-Spot drink.
I enjoyed my evening here, David, an employee at the restaurant was very polite and kind. He went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. The food was fantastic and the drinks were lovely.

We had high hopes for Pescada, but the experience was disappointing from start to finish. We were seated on the patio which, while pleasant, didn’t match the prices they charge—no linens besides napkins, a completely bare table, and an overall feel more like a casual café than a high-end restaurant. We ordered two appetizers, but they came out spaced far apart, and then the steak tartare arrived much later. It tasted overwhelmingly like anchovies (they did comp it, which we appreciated). Service overall was incredibly slow—it took over an hour to get our food. My son ordered the scallop dinner, and it came with only three very small scallops—definitely more of an appetizer than a proper entrée. Not worth the wait or the price.
So we've dined at this establishment before and had a wonderful experience. We went back today and the service was very very slow. Waters went empty, non alcoholic drinks took forever. Food was hot and fresh. We will be back. Hopefully better service next time.
This is a very upmarket restaurant. The food and service was excellent. Great atmosphere but on the expensive side
Service, food, and ambience were terrific! It was a bit loud in there but definitely a place we would go back to.
If you want to enjoy a culinary dream you need to try this place! The flavors and spices are something we have only experienced in NYC and Europe
