We had asked for (in reservation )an inside table because the weather was quite hot. Upon entering the noise level was incredibly loud. The hostess apologized as there was a birthday party going on and we were seated in a closed off area that was much better, and a fan made it quite comfortable. Good service.

Food quality is excellent, and the portions we had were big enough that we had to take half home. So, the prices seem well worth it. The staff was very helpful and responsive to our simple requests. The atmosphere was friendly and casual.

We have been going to Pacific Catch for years. and loved their wasabi bowl. They no longer offer it and the meal we had as a substitute paled in comparison. There was no part of the meal that worked including the rice. Service was fine and atmosphere in the outside area was still lovely/

Not sure what happened to Pacific Catch but there was skin on my husband's sashimi, the ahi in the guacapoke was in big, tough chunks, and the guacamole itself was watery and flavorless. Other dishes were small and overly sauced. We requested to sit outside because we had our dog with us, and we had to put our dog in the car because we were crammed in a table with two huge outdoor heaters and a pole encroaching on our space (car has dog mode, so he was fine). I think Pacific Catch survived the pandemic but the changes they made to stay afloat ruined them. This was our second mediocre experience at this location.

The chicken in the chicken taco was dry and I'm feeling like they are cutting back on the sauce. This restaurant was so delicious last year ? we came all the time! UNFORTUNATELY under the new management I'm feeling like the quality of foods are slipping.

I've been coming to Pacific Catch for years. My family likes the fresh Poke options and fish and chips. I have a hard time getting past the small plates. Here's my winning combo: Coconut Shrimp, Sticky Ribs, Street Menu item - Fish Tacos. Also, half price wines and cocktails on Tuesdays!

Went on Tuesday night to celebrate house sale. Waitstaff very pleasant, food delicious-calamari appetizer & fish & chips/4 pieces. Enjoyed 1/2 price wine/alcohol night with a Roederer bottle of champagne. Very pleasant booth inside for a joyous occasion.

We happened to meet a friend during happy hour and the drink bargains were good if you choose from the Happy Hour menu. The happy foods were smaller portions, and a couple in the party wished they had upped their sites a bit and ordered the larger regular items for the extra cost. The closed in patio towards the street and parking lot was unusually good for our intended purpose of visiting amongst our group. This room is often very echoey and loud, especially during happy hours. It was a little hot during this 85F + heat, but was a good tradeoff for not having audio competition. {70+, hearing aids on the resistant horizon...} I recommend the inside ‘Standard' seating towards the back if audio interaction is your goal. Service was pleasantly available, but not hovering. Thanks guys! Good job.

Pacific Catch is my go-to,favorite restaurant here in Marin. The food is always good, the environment is pleasant and the menu is “understandable”....full of excellent choices.

Pacific catch is usually great, however disappointed with one of the dishes we got on this visit - Korean BBQ - the meat was fatty ,chewy and inedible. Only managed a few bites and returned it uneaten, was a waste of money. Stick to the fish!

I haven't eaten at Pacific Catch in quite some time (maybe a year or two?). Now I remember why. The service, food, and atmosphere, at best, are worth "0" stars, but Yelp won't allow me to do that! We started with tap water (in a re-used bottle that may or may not get correctly washed after each use because of the narrow neck) with 2 glasses. Apparently, neither the server nor the support staff that brought the bottle to the table had been taught about service! We poured our own water. That's not such a big deal, but at the end of the meal, when I was handed the little hand-held computer by the server, the screen gave me the option of three different amounts for a tip, which I'm sure the server thought he deserved! I ordered a Scotch and soda with a "twist". When it was served, I took a sip, and it was a Scotch and water. There were no bubbles. When the waiter reappeared, I asked him to have the bartender make me another, to which the server said, I can't serve you another because it will come out the same! Just the response I had hoped to hear! NOT! So, then, I said I would like a Chardonnay, which he brought. Now, I'm 80, and I've tasted thousands of different glasses of Chardonnay from many different vineyards around the world. The sip of wine I took was horrible, and not a Chardonnay! I moved it to the side of the table without drinking any more of it, where it sat until the server picked it up but while doing that, didn't say anything or question me about why I hadn't consumed it. That is, he didn't say anything until I was finished with my meal. when he then asked me if I wanted another glass of wine. My answer was an unequivocal no! Tonight, for my entre, I had the $24 Mixed Catch dinner which consists of: 2 pc Alaskan cod, 3 pc Thai coconut shrimp, calamari, jalapeño tartar, chipotle aioli, Thai sweet chili sauce, sesame slaw, choice of fries or house side salad. The coconut shrimp were almost black and overly crisp. Clearly, the shrimp were overcooked.

This is a cute little place with all kinds of fish options! I went for two fish tacos. They were big! And well flavored. My friends each had one of there bowl dishes which were huge and delicious. Service was spot on!

I went with friends who were moving from the area and we sat in the patio section at Corte Madera, Pacific catch. The waiter was attentive, the food was excellent. I appreciate the moderate prices and generous portions and wide selection. I always get the wasabi rice bowl, but Substitute for different proteins to change it up. It has an excellent variety of vegetables, but especially the ginger makes the salad pop.

I used to love going this restaurant. But, the quality of fish has taken a turn for the worse. The salmon was average and dry and the sea bass tasted old and awful. The latter was replaced by yellow tail, which didn't look good. So, we didn't even try. The waiter was very available and helpful, and the ambiance of the restaurant is nice and relaxing. That part was pleasant. But, the food really was not good. Though, we received a gift card for a meal due to sending back one plate, I don't think I'll return. Very disappointed because this was one of my go-to places.

Besides the food, the host was the best part! He was friendly, welcoming, and personable, exactly what a host should be. I'm hoping management sees this and commends him. (Saturday lunch; young (late teens/early 20s)
