What a beautiful spot in Palm Desert. We were there on business for a few days and I’m so glad we spent some of our short trip at Pacifica! Our server Rox was on top of it and had an awesome personality (which stood out in our visit amongst some other experiences we had in the area). It’s a beautiful spot with an outdoor area and heaters, with amazing food and stellar service, smiles everywhere you go. I love seafood and they cooked everything amazingly, I had the twin lobster tails and subbed mashed potatoes, which were great! We forgot our receipt during the visit thanks to the champagne we ordered, and Tracy the manager delivered amazing service and emailed it to me the very same night I called. Wow! Rox and Tracy are true assets to your team, don’t let them go!

Great seafood options this is a popular restaurant with a patio looking out over El Paseo Drive. It is a refined experience with good wine selections. Our server was delightful on this evening. I had the seared scallops, and wedge salad. Other had seabass, boneless beef ribs and salmon. All we’re generous servings and we’ll prepared.

Great upscale restaurant with excellent staff and food. Impressed with their classy dining room and outdoor patio. It was our 1st time here and thoroughly enjoyed it. Came in early for their specials. Well worth it. Plenty of food at a great price. Will definitely go again.

Daniel was a phenomenal server. So prompt remembering every request and making sure all was good! Restaurant is a huge fave every time we come down to the desert. The delicious Spanish Octopus and sable fish on sweet rice were delicious…. All their seafood is at the level Pacifica has a current vibe, classy yet comfortable. Every item on the menu is perfection. They do a delicious and refreshing vodka pineapple lemon drop.. I get one every time! Cant wait to return when we visit again.

My wife and I visited Pacific Seafood in Palm Desert on a Friday night during a weekend getaway, and it’s clear why this place is so popular. The restaurant was absolutely packed, with the patio being the prime spot—misters sprayed to keep diners cool, and the sunset view was stunning. This a fun spot to soak in the desert vibe.
We ordered the octopus appetizer, which was flavorful and well-prepared, followed by seared scallops and salmon for our mains. The scallops were delicious, but the salmon was disappointingly dry. While the food was decent overall, it didn’t quite live up to the hype and could use a bit of refinement to match the restaurant’s reputation.
Service, however, was a major letdown. The staff seemed overwhelmed by the crowd, and we faced long waits for everything—taking our order, getting our food, and finally receiving the check. Prices were reasonable, and parking in the mall’s garage out back was easy, but the slow service overshadowed the experience. Pacific Seafood has potential, but they need to step up their game to keep up with the demand.

Honestly i thought i had my favorite spots laid out already in the desert but baby was i wrong. The lemon blueberrry drink was like a pie as a drink. The calamari was fresh and amazing. The beef short ribs was a good portion size for the money. We sat outside on the rooftop level outdoor overlooking the strip. Veronica my waitress was so welcoming and kind. The birthday ice cream cake was delicious. Total bill for two is $141.
