First time here, amazing food and service! We can't wait to come back to try all the other options

Overall a pleasant decor. Requested a booth for 3 but got a half of a booth (cushioned seats on one side, chairs on the other). My wife asked to taste a zin, but after bringing the taste, waiter didn't come back until after food was delivered and half done, so never got the wine. The salmon bowl was ordered by both myself and my wife, was heavy on the cauliflower, rice and avocado, but the salmon filet was quite thin and small, which is not what we expected at a fish specialty restaurant. Our friend did get a nice comped dessert for his birthday. Suggest redesign the salmon bowl to include a more substantial serving of salmon.

2nd visit in 2 weeks to Pacific Catch. This time I took advantage of Happy Hour. My 2 other guests enjoyed the Teri Chicken Bowl and the Salmon Sandwich. I look forward to PC again in my home area.

Love this Asian fusion place. My favorite dish is the Korean BBQ steak with kimchi fried rice, and brussel sprouts.

I typically don't leave negative reviews, but I want to share our experience in hopes that it helps others avoid a similar disappointment. My husband and I were excited to try a new restaurant for date night, especially in an upscale location like UTC. Unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to our expectations. While our server did her best, she was juggling too many tables, which greatly affected the service. The food was pretty good, once we finally got our cutlery (we had to ask twice) AFTER our food was sitting in front of us! I won't go into too much detail, but the bathrooms were so neglected! It was gross! We weren't the only ones disappointed. We could overhear other patrons expressing frustration, including a gentleman next to us who asked for ketchup, only to be told by the server that he “would check and see if he could find any, as they were running low.” Overall, while the food had potential, the service and cleanliness left much to be desired. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this place based on our experience.

Pacific Catch offers a fantastic mix of fresh seafood, flavorful dishes, and a laid-back yet stylish atmosphere. The menu has a great variety, from poke bowls to grilled fish, all with bold, well-balanced flavors. Hannah was one of the most professional and knowledgeable waitresses I have ever had. She was tremendous! I tried the poke bowl and it was delicious—fresh, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. The drinks were also on point, with a nice selection of craft cocktails and sake. Service was friendly and attentive, though the restaurant was a bit busy, so there was a slight wait for our food. Still, the overall experience was excellent, and I'd definitely come back. Perfect spot for a casual yet high-quality seafood meal! Would definitely recommend for seafood lovers or anyone looking for a great dining experience.

We love Pacific Catch. Great food & drinks. Fun to sit @ bar with awesome bartenders. Comfortable seating inside & patio. Always great service and consistently great service. Affordable, casual but quality & stylish. Give them a try.

The food was fantastic. The shrimp ceviche was super delicious, I highly recommend it. The guacamole tasted very good. It had a great natural flavor to it. The service was a bit slow. We waited for a bit to be seated. Our order also took a little time to get served. But that would not stop me from coming back again. The food is good.

I’m on a work trip and decided to try out this Resturant while shopping. Great atmosphere for summer. It was cold with minimal heater. Food was amazing. Waitstaff… not good. We initially were meeting another couple, BUT we told the waiter they were not showing up. Took 20 mins to get water, then another 10 to get our sodas. Actually our food arrived before our drinks, lol. Waiter NEVER came and checked on us literally. Resturant had maybe 5 part ribs, with several staff. I had to go to the counter to get my ticket, and when I commented that we never got service, he threw it at me. I asked for to go containers, 1 for soup he gave me 2 square boxes. I looked at him and said “ and how is soup supposed to go in this”, literally smirked and walked away. More bad experience later when checking out … if you go don’t get Colton as your waiter, he has no personality at all.

Disappointed with the relaunched menu.
Service was great tho.
I have been a big fan of their dishes since I came here for college, their green curry dish used to be really delicious, every ingredient was surprisingly tasty in creative combinations. But now they have removed the pumpkin, squash, or coconut crisps and the taste is disappointing. They used carrots and green beans instead and the taste was raw and strange. If you still want to try the bowls I’ve recommend the west coast one. Their fries are pretty good too. Anyways I wrote this review cause I was too sad from eating that bowl :( I’ll take a break from this place.

I enjoyed my sea bass! The ambiance of this restaurant is also great. It’s beachy and inviting. The service was good. The only thing that was lacking was the dessert. It was just ok.
