It truly is one of my favorite restaurants. Come often. Warm welcome by Max, as always, I feel like I'm a part of Waverly family every time I come. Most delicious Kale salad, my favorite and delicious Mocktail. Thank you for your hospitality and the best service. I will see you soon.

Wow! Happy Valentine’s Day to us! Zack was an amazing server! We asked him to for “dealers choice” and he provided us with the most amazing meals we have had in a long time! He was very personable and fun and had great drink recommenrations, too! The “little stickler” was a great tequila cocktail and made fiancée enjoyed supping Ocho Tequila all night. Thank you for a memorable Valentine’s Day night! 💕🥂🥰

Pacific Coast Grill has truly become our favorite restaurant, and we make it a point to celebrate all of our special occasions here. Every time we visit, the food never disappoints, but this time there were a couple of standouts that really made our experience unforgettable. The Cardiff Reef Roll was absolutely incredible, and the Alaskan Halibut was cooked to perfection—so flavorful and tender, it truly exceeded our expectations. Even though Pacific Coast Grill isn't a dedicated sushi spot, their sushi is unbelievable. It's always fresh, flavorful, and crafted with such care. It’s a pleasant surprise every time. We also really enjoyed the Pinot Gris from Willamette, which was the perfect pairing with our meal. The wine selection here always complements the dishes so well. Lastly, the valet service was impeccable. They were kind, professional, and made sure our car was parked right up front, so we didn't have to wait in the rain. It’s little touches like this that make a big difference in the overall experience. We can't wait to come back and continue celebrating more special moments here!

The Caesar salad was even BETTER than before! The addition of the red pepper coulis, the Parmesan cup, and the little (not too spicy) peppers was FABULOUS! It was even more perfect with the generous portion of salmon. This will be a go-to meal for sure. And I think the Lobster bisque had even more lobster pieces than usual—it’s ALWAYS divine!

Perfect place for a low key date night. Arguably the best pizza on the coast highway. Salads are huge and tasty. Servers are friendly and professional.
