Restaurants in Pacifica

“I've tried all the vegetarian burritos in town, and La Perla has the best. All ingredients of a super burrito (minus meat) and comes with extra veggies inside - peppers, onions, and spinach fajita style - rather than just a regular burrito, but with less, like most places do. It stands out among the Mexican restaurants in town for vegetarian options. Very good homemade salsas”

“This was our first time eating at Soul Rice. When we entered, we saw how many people were eating in and how many people were picking up their dinner orders. From the moment we went in, we were greeted by Angelo who took care of us while we dined in the restaurant. We ended up ordering the Kung Pao Tofu, Walnut Shrimp with Pumpkin as well as the Chicken Curry Rice. Everything tasted absolutely delicious. We were quite impressed with the food, and definitely plan on coming back!”

“We have only done take out orders. We were new to Pacifica during the covid pandemic and discovered this restaurant. Having tried anotherJapanese restaurant which was awful, we were happy with Ocean fish. We order maybe 1-2 month. There was only one time when we were doing a pick up and it was almost closing, that the staff just dropped the food on the table and walked away. Since that time, I haven't noticed any rudeness. Dining space is limited.
I want to note that the chicken teriyaki is not marinated and tastes like regular grilled chicken, but over all the food is good.”

“Cute little Italian restaurant. Superb service and mouth watering menu!”

“Delightful lunch. Nice comfortable space. Delicious kofta platter and Turkish coffee. The proprietor brought us hot tea since it was a cold day and a lovely dessert.”

“$41/person, I guess it could be a good value for all you can eat but I just don’t like the quality of the food here so didn’t eat anything valuable”

“Gillian & Gina run a beautiful business. My favorite thing to do is to make a reservation and bring friends to get the traditional Afternoon Tea Service. They also offer a more casual walk-up menu. This menu includes assorted Tea Sandwiches, Scones served with Clotted Cream and Preserves, Crumpets served with Meyer Lemon Curd, Assorted Sweets and a large variety of Loose-Leaf Teas. Everything is delicious. Also this past year they have been generously hosting Pop Ups for local makers. They also have lots of treasures for sale. Lovey's is a wonderful place.”

“Best fish and chips we have ever had. We miss not being close enough to eat here. Always look forward to coming "home" and eating here.”

“La atención y la comida muy buena”

“A place where, from the very first visit, you are welcomed and served as if you were already a regular customer; you can really sense that it’s a family-run business striving to offer quality at an affordable price. Everything was delicious, and I liked the complimentary nuts served as an appetizer. It’s the kind of food that feels truly comforting.”

“In a sea of personal choice disappointments in one measured area or another arrive Trish and Becca, two lovely women inhabiting a cafe just off Palmetto Ave serving ambrosial fare in such an aesthetically pleasing atmosphere, including their company, I didn't want to leave. Prior to a recent visit, I had not tried an acai bowl. What a pleasant surprise! I could not stop thanking Becca for allowing me to try her version of same and would like to say thank you for the conversation and ambiance. Excellent music choices. Simply wonderful.”

“Food was good. Staff was friendly and was always around when you need them. Will definitely come back and recommend”

“Fun surfer punk dive bar with cheap drinks and outdoor patio, complete with surfboards. Free popcorn and occasional handcrafted wood oven Italian pizza for sale outside. Surprisingly, many big names have played at this tiny beach venue, like The Mummies & Supersuckers! This place continues to create new memories for me each time!”

“Shaking Beef banh MI was awesome. Bread was crunchy, jalapenos were just right. Spring rolls were large with shrimp, noodles and pork. Peanut dipping sauce was warm. Tea place right next door.”

“I love the burrito bowl. It's load with veggies, your choice of meat, beans, rice, sour cream, cheese, pico de Gallo, & guacamole. So 🔥, my husband & I come here every time were visiting Pacifica.”

“Enjoyed my first visit had fantastic homespun donut muffin combinations, awesome sausage breakfast sandwich, local artist made magnet. Great stop! Friendly service.”

“Delicious and super friendly!!”

“Their Dutch Apple is Deliciousssss😋”

“The food is good I'm sure that I'll be back again if I stay in town... but To be honest the sandwich is fairly expected but they put mayonnaise on it and it's like that just kind of makes it a regular sandwich in a way like I do like the role and stuff like that but I was hoping to get some more of that you know that like a rice vinegar sugar sauce.”

“Great wines and lite bites”

“their chocolate cream pie is rich and tasty!”

“The sushi and sashimi were great. The customer service and owner were so friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend this location. Especially if you want to enjoy some great Japanese cuisine.”

“The best indian cuisine in pacifica.
Service was superb and the food came out fast, also smelled delightfully delicious. Will have to I go back and try the rest of the menu.”

“Cute place, friendly service, nice atmosphere, great white hot chocolate.”

“Great friendly cafe, right on Pacifica’s beach. Lots of whale watching and hang gliders nearby. Super music on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am until 4pm.”

“I go out of my way to get La Mordida' salsa. Generous self serve salsa bar, delicious Chipotle, Verde, pickled jalapeños and carrots, and spicy peppers and mango salsa (I miss the spicy cucumber salad they used to have all the time. The vegetarian options are good, sometimes just all right, but they are very consistent and everything is very fresh. I can make a whole side dish out of their salsa bar while I wait for my order, which makes this my favorite taqueria in town. The one star is missing from my review in atmosphere, only because it's usually quite loud so I only do to-go. I've only sat inside to eat once or twice. The staff is wonderful, helpful, and kind, even with language barriers. Never gotten my order wrong”

“The food is amazing! Armando is a FANTASTIC server!!”

“good food Coffey and people”

“Friendly staff and yummy tea. Thank you”

“Yum… Can’t get enough of P-Town Coffee n Tea.”

“Everything are so delicious, I will definitely recommend it to my family and friends.”

“Great local home town bar with ping pong, darts, and pool, they've got great live music and fun events like karaoke and open mic. It's also on the bus route, and a great place to watch the game, with great food places nearby. The Long Board is a fun and entertaining place to go.”

“I had the bulletproof coffee, light roast with half and half. It is so delicious even with no sweetener. I highly recommend you stop in, the staff is super friendly and fast.”

“Such a great menu! These guys are the best!”

“Tea World is my favorite boba shop in Pacifica.”

“Best pizza in town and no ridiculous fees like RT. I’d rather support the local restaurants. Have to keep these delicious local restaurants going💖👍🏼”

“I just wish they were open Sundays!!”

“I love finding locally-owned coffee places, and this place is awesome! Great coffee and food, and the owners are very kind and personable. Inviting atmosphere and places to sit and chat.”

“🥰🤩💋🧡LOVE IT!!”

“Great staff, excellent customer service.”

“My son took me here for lunch - we’d been meaning to try it. We were very pleased - amazing view with tiered tables so other guests aren’t blocking the view. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious and nicely presented. As a nice addition, there was a pianist playing while we dined which added to the ambience. We will come back because it was such a nice treat. One of those places that makes me love living in California!”

“Here on vacation, saw the reviews of this place, and so glad we stopped by to try. It's take out only, owned and operated by a nice couple. Family of 4 was only $58. The food was hot, tasty, and enough of a portion size to fill you up. We will definately come back next time we are in town.”

“Had a Friday afternoon hunger attack for noodles as I drove by Pacifica Thai. Recent reviews were positive and highlighted authenticity, taste, and hospitality. Parked in adjacent lot and entered a welcoming environment. Ordered take out—Pad See Ew with Shrimp & mixed veggies, Chicken Satay. Shrimp Chips are complimentary.
Oh my. All so very delicious and satisfying. Glad I live locally. Will definitely make this a regular stop. Give it a try”

“The Green Enchilada offers healthy, clean, vegan or carne options. Every item on their menu can be made with tasty tofu as the protein. Or, if you don't like tofu, just order grilled veggies. I like to mix tofu and grilled veggies in my burrito, bowl or tacos. For those who need it, gluten-free is also available. I'd rate this place a 5 if I could. There's value in the fact that I can eat a tasty vegan meal and my husband can have carne asada fajitas....at the same restaurant!”

“Customer service is great!”

“overall, the food was decent. the food came out quickly and the staff was attentive. there are unlimited drinks and ice cream which were a plus. however, the crab rangoon was disappointing as it only had cream cheese and hardly any imitation crab. there were also quite a bit of flies at the condiment station.”

“My favorite Chinese restaurant. We eat there each time I visit my family at Daly City and they also do home delivery!”

“The meat was tender and smokey with rich flavor. The ribs were tasty. My wife liked the brisket, it was moist and had good texture. The beans were ordinary. The slaw was good. Everyone liked the corn bread.”

“We had a party and ordered 6 pizzas. They arrived in 30 minutes, at the exact time we wanted them. Throughout the evening people commented on how good the pizzas were and asked repeatedly where we got them. Even the veggie pizza was delicious, and those are the hardest to get right. We were 100% satisfied!”

“From the moment we walked in, everything about our experience was wonderful.

The ambiance was warm, inviting, and comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy dinner. It had a welcoming atmosphere that made us want to stay and take our time.

The food was excellent. My favorites were the Truffle Scallop, the Shinjuku Roll, and the Bluefin Lovers Roll. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. Each roll had its own unique taste, and I would gladly order all of them again.

The service truly made the night unforgettable. Eric was our server, and he was absolutely amazing. He has such a positive energy, and you can genuinely tell he enjoys being around people. He made us feel welcomed from the start, checked on us throughout the meal without ever being overbearing, and made the whole dining experience feel personal and like we were guests in someone's home rather than just customers in a restaurant.

We'll definitely be coming back--not only for the food but also for the incredible hospitality. Thank you, Eric, for making our dinner such a memorable experience!”

“Came in with my friend while visiting the area and I enjoyed the experience from the time I called ahead to ask a question until we were leaving out and satisfied. When we came in there was an amazing aroma from the fresh baked goods and the owner was so sweet and warm ❤️. I got a bowl and being someone that tries to avoid added sugar and processed foods, I was well accommodated. There was also scripture cards on one of the tables that I absolutely loved! Overall I would definitely recommend and I would definitely come back if I'm ever in the area again.”

“A real locals only kind of place where the floor is permanently tacky, the bathroom has seen things that would legally qualify as maritime disasters, and there’s at least one sun-bleached guy named “Sharky” who hasn’t worn real shoes since 1998.

The decor is “nautical decay,” the IPA tastes faintly of salt and regret, and every surface looks like it survived both a hurricane and a beach boys metal tribute band.

There’s a surfboard on the ceiling signed by someone who might be famous, but no one’s sure.
Basically: if Poseidon had a DUI and opened a bar, that’s the vibe. I regret nothing”

“The best place to eat Hot & sour soup in pacifica.”

“i seldom dine-in in this place but always when i crave for some pizza and especially a great delicious pasta VIVA ITALIANO IS THE BEST @ pacifica, ca. They served always the food freshly cooked and it’s really delicious and the people that worked there are friendly. Worth everything!”

“Great food and love supporting local Pacifica restaurants!”

“Great pho, pork chops, wonton noodles soup 🍜 and wide option of rice plates and dry vermicelli bowls. I’m so glad we have a great Vietnamese restaurant in Pacifica. Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely a hidden gem in Pacifica!! FRESH FOOD!!! Your order will take a little longer, so be patient!! This is not your ordinary Chinese Restaurant that the food is just sitting there a reheated. I don't go to any other Chinese Restaurant EVER!!! I moved and now I make the 4-5 hour drive to just come here!!”

“Breaker’s is a great comfortable place to get a broad variety of “comfort food” at a reasonable price. Staff are very welcoming and attentive. Portions are definitely biased towards large. Our favorites are Crab Panini, Patty Melt, and Monte Christo. Definitely an affordable casual good quality restaurant close to picturesque scenery with numerous hiking trails.”

“The sourdough alone is worth coming here. The bread is crispy soft and fresh. If you are a fan of sour dough this is for you, and if you don't know if you are and want to try really good if not the best sourdough ( I hate using the word the best because I'll come across another gem that will blow my mind).

Mac and cheese is made with real cheddar, there's a distinct sharpness that you only get from cheddar.

The sandwich was good, but next time I will have something the complements and celebrates the sourdough, maybe something thing like turkey, avacdo and cheese.

The service is friendly, and fast and music is lively. They could use more fountain drink options but the sourdough is so good I can't hold that against them.”

“Armando was amazing great food
Fresh ingredients
We made me Joe's special in a omelet was best I ever had recommend trying salsa family recipe all fresh ingredients”

“Great selection of beer, and they offer seasoned tater tots with their burgers or fried fish which are well seasoned. It’s also cool that weekends usually have a rotating food truck. Humble Sea is becoming one of our staples!”

“I love pad Thai pad see Ew bbq chicken bbq libs for 5star”

“good food with huge serves.. very casual.”

“First time trying Cold Stone ice cream, and it was super creamy, very delicious! I loved having so many flavors to try from, so I got a banana split with the flavors: Banana, Coffee and Berry Velvet ❤️”

“the people are tu nice,❤️👌 everything it's clean 👍🏼🍻👌”

“I stopped by while running errands out of town,cute homie atmosphere nice lady was there to great me,i may have arrived between hours only soup was available but it's all i wanted i settled on a fishball soup with noodles it hit as expected will definitely visit again when I'm in the area.”

“Great all around restaurant! appraiser's, pizza, and dinners! Great Family Place!”

“Bonito lugar con linda vista Asia el mar”

“Great place for families. and go to after kids games. Val & Max very customer oriented.”

“I've been dining at this restaurant for club events for several years. Our club receives a varied menu: prime rib, Chicken Cordon Bleu, salmon or surf and turf. The price of our meals include wine, hors d'oeuvres, dessert and gratuity. That's pretty reasonable given today's expensive eateries. The staff is friendly, personable and professional. Food is prepared quickly and efficiently. I recommend this restaurant for small parties/groups. 😊”

“We recently ate here during our vacation in Pacifica. I actually heard of the restaurant from a tiktok video. We ordered the steak sandwhich and they were delicious!! The meat was so tender and juicy 🤤. I ordered mine with light onion and mayo and it was just perfect! It was a nice chill spit to grab lunch. I can't wait to be back in the area (I am from PA) and grab a bite again!!”

“Great local business ‼-Eat here or To Go… great food… Nice friendly atmosphere, local, quick and fresh food. I ordered Ceviche - Friday and Saturdays only. You get to make your own, it comes with the ingredients— create it yourself, at home.🏡”

“One of the few fast food options with real vegetables available and all at a reasonable price. The new app brings some much appreciated discounts for repeat customers. This particular location can be fairly generous with portions but once in a while you will get one of the smaller servers who also thinks smaller portions of food is acceptable but I would disagree. Service is fast and almost never out of any of the main dishes or available mostly fresh in a few minutes of ordering. Thank you to all staff for providing good service at one of the few options for health concerned people.”

“Highest quality bagels! Incredible service.”

“This is the perfect place to get a great bite of food and a tasty beer. Relaxed environment with a friendly Seahorse / ocean vibe. Owner is welcoming and makes some incredible food. They have tv, music, fireplace and games. Check it out when you’re in the area! 10/10.”

“Love the sandwiches and pastries here. Very prompt service every time”

“The last honest pizza! No Mexican food actually.

Best pozole, friendly service, good wallet wise, freshly made ships, clean restaurant. The best around the area! I am glad I am dining here.🥳”

“The staff at the Oceana Blvd. Starbucks is awesome!! They are very personable, remember your name and what you like to drink. They wished me a happy birthday the day before my birthday ( when I used my birthday reward) Then on my birthday they wished me a happy birthday again. Good job!!!”
