We tried Pacific Catch for the first (not last!) time and really enjoyed the ambience and attitude. Our party of five ordered a variety of food, from fish and chips to lobster tail, and everything was delicious. The menu lends itself to personalized tastes and a healthy approach to food.

The Penthouse offers a very nice breakfast menu. The omelette are big, the burrito is delicious, the fruit was very fresh. The restaurant was very busy, but our server was attentive and provided everything we asked for. The hostess welcomed us warmly and we got a window table just like we requested. The Penthouse provides beautiful views of Santa Monica and, if you are lucky enough to get a window table that provides a view of the ocean, the view is spectacular.
