Pacific Catch is a WestCoast Fish House dedicated to delivering high quality sustainable seafood with a unique perspective. From the day we opened we've been mindful about where our ingredients come from and how to bring to life the vibrant flavors and feeling of the Pacific. It's our commitment to our guests to keep things interesting, innovative, wholesome and thoughtfully sourced. That's why we've formalized our relationship with the Monterey Bay Seafood Aquarium's Seafood Watch, James Beard Foundation's Smart Catch and the Surfrider Foundation by becoming a partner and bringing on a director of sustainability to help steward these efforts. We will be following the most stringent protocols on cleaning, sanitization, social distancing, and protections for employee health including temperature taking and the use of protective masks and gloves.

We had a group lunch at Pacific Catch Stanford Shopping Center. We were greeted when we walked in and seated immediately. Our server brought us our menus and water within a few minutes. He was knowledgeable, professional, and personable. The guacamole and chips appetizer was fresh and delicious. I enjoyed the double rainbow sushi bowl (recommended by the server). Friends at the table liked the spicy green curry salmon bowl and the mixed catch fish and chips. All in all we enjoyed our time!

A very aggressive woman tried to take the table for which we had been waiting -she came in after we did and we had a reservation --and the young man at the desk did not intervene. She yelled at me and left the restaurant.

When sitting outside on the patio for lunch, be aware that one after the other delivery trucks unload large deliveries for the mall stores. It’s noisy.

We’ve been coming to the Stanford mall location for the past couple of years and can say the service is much better in the past year. We usually sit in the covered patio as we like to bring our dog and quite a few other patrons do the same. But pet owners, including us are respectful of other diners so is nice to see well behaved dogs. The salads are very fresh and tasty! We have ordered the California rolls, fish and chips, salmon dinner, salmon burger, chicken and salmon bowels and cod fish tacos and haven’t been disappointed yet! The only side item that’s. It so great is the chips and salsa/guacamole. It’s ok. They recently started offering a Dog Menu and we ordered it for our small dog last night and was pleasantly surprised to see a large piece of salmon (menu says 4 ounces) but I can say it looked more like 6 ounces, cooked perfectly and came with a large amount t of cooked brown rice. We’ll be back soon! Usually twice a month 😄

The goods delicious, but a server I've had twice is less than personable. Don't know her name.
