    A stay in Palm Desert always includes dinner at Pacifica Grille. We enjoy the food and the ambience.

    We loved our dinner tonight. My husband had the miso fish that was incredible and I had the mahi Mahon. It was so great. It was the best romesco sauce I've ever had!! Our service was great and a great value for the meal

    We had a very nice experience at Pacifica Seafood. We went early for the 2 courses for $27 offered before 5pm, which was a nice deal. Our salmon and short rib entrees were both excellent. Service was also excellent. My only negative was that $14 for each dessert seemed a little pricy.

    Our waiter was attentive but not obtrusive. Our table was outdoors under a heater, very comfortable. Food and drinks were very good, portions were just right. We will be back

    This is my favorite all-around restaurant in the CV. The location and ambiance are delightful. I love to sit outside and enjoy the great view. The heat lamps make it cozy in cold weather. You can converse easily with dinner companions because it's not noisy. The service is the best, I think, in the desert with friendly, excellently trained staff who make sure you have a great experience. I've left the food for last....truly delicious!

    The pumpkin soup was outstanding. Also the scallops on the half shell were beautifully prepared and tasted great. The shrimp pasta was excellent. The servers were a little over tasked and stretched thin tonight.

    We’ve eaten here before, we seated promptly bread, and water arrived at the table fairly quick. The bread is very good. Be careful you’ll ruin your dinner. My wife had had Seabass, which could’ve been cooked a little more but still was very good. Good in flavored. I ordered a half a dozen oysters, which were excellent, I also ordered the scallops for my entrée that were perfectly cooked. For dessert, we had bread pudding, which was very good.
