Dublin

About the restaurant

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.
Rest assured all of our restaurants 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.

Food excellent as always. Blood orange margaritas the perfect way to celebrate the holiday season! Fish tacos were enjoyable and the chili-lime shrimp bowl very tasty. Service always good. Nice to be remembered as a frequent diner at Pacific Catch, Dublin☺️☺️

It was very easy to set up a reservation for a large group - which is amazing given it was during the holiday season. The service was great and the food/menu was diverse enough for everyone's tastes. Thank you!

Berkeley

About the restaurant

Located 5 min from the heart of Berkeley, and in the middle of the scenic Berkeley Marina waterfront, and right off I-580. With a large, spacious, and meter-free parking lot. Right next to Hana Japan.

A warm and inviting waterfront seafood restaurant with plenty of delicious land meat options. Water-facing windows along the sit-down–covered–dining room invite bay views and a true oceanside patio feel. An attractive full bar for marina-adjacent snacking and sipping. Locally crafted beers, creative combinations, approachable and relaxed atmosphere with a focus on hospitality and an absolute commitment to quality.

Ideal for date nights, meetups with friends, group parties, company corporate parties, and for delicious food with an amazing harborside view. UC Berkeley is just up the road, the Bay Bridge, and San Francisco is also a short skip away. Enjoy our fresh homemade pasta, fresh ingredients and an array of non-seafood options, we have dishes for everyone.

This is a lovely setting overlooking the Berkeley Marina boat basin. Very warm heat lamps with a nice sense of sheltered open air seating. Had tacos and shrimp with grits. Very tasty
