    We have been regulars at Jake’s over the years. It’s about the best atmosphere you could ask for. It’s very exclusive but very beach casual which makes it so comfortable. Great service every time we go there. They don’t serve the main course until you are ready…this is such an exception to most restaurants around town that are pushing you to finish and move on. All around thumbs up!!!

    Pacifica never disappoints. Delicious food, fantastic service, great ambience and view. I’m a vegetarian and even though Pacifica seems to focus on seafood, their vegetarian options have been creative and delicious every time. Extensive wine selection too, with half-price bottles on Thursdays, it’s a great value.

    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!
