Restaurants in Pacifica

“Great food and love supporting local Pacifica restaurants!”

“Superb 4 star in my book.”

“An absolute gem! The food and drink, the people, the vibes, and the decor are all amazing. Love that we have Golden Sol in Pacifica. Get ya mind, body, and soul right!”

“Food is good and good size portions”

“Second time here and it was just as good as the first! Came in on a Monday night for dinner and they were packed, but no line which was great.

Went with their pork broth and I gotta say it had great flavor and their beef ribeye was tender! You can taste the quality in their meats. The grill and side dishes are always a plus.

The restaurant is on the smaller side but awesome atmosphere, attentive service and good people there! Will be back!”

“Food is always and consistently great! Truffle beef mushroom fried rice is a must. The eggplant dish’s are so flavorful and don’t forget to Korean chicken wings. I just about tried everything on the menu, you won’t be disappointed.”

“Restaurant it's small but at cozy. Decorations it's unique, the plates on the wall accentuate the atmosphere along with the turkey eyes.
I order a chicken shawarma wrap comes with salad and dip. Additionally they bring bread (Turkish) so delicious.”

“La atención y la comida muy buena”

“Fun surfer punk dive bar with cheap drinks and outdoor patio, complete with surfboards. Free popcorn and occasional handcrafted wood oven Italian pizza for sale outside. Surprisingly, many big names have played at this tiny beach venue, like The Mummies & Supersuckers! This place continues to create new memories for me each time!”

“good food Coffey and people”

“Revisited this spot & still so good. Tried the vegan iced Thai tea for the first time and it was delicious!! The alternative is coconut milk fyi. My go to is the pork ban mi but most items I’ve had are good. A perf little spot after spending the day in Pacifica surf or hiking. Ps. Love that they are always blasting the jams in there!

Dietary restrictions: Vegan options for drinks!”

“This restaurant deserves 10 stars! It is the best Chinese restaurant in the Bay area.”

“Gillian & Gina run a beautiful business. My favorite thing to do is to make a reservation and bring friends to get the traditional Afternoon Tea Service. They also offer a more casual walk-up menu. This menu includes assorted Tea Sandwiches, Scones served with Clotted Cream and Preserves, Crumpets served with Meyer Lemon Curd, Assorted Sweets and a large variety of Loose-Leaf Teas. Everything is delicious. Also this past year they have been generously hosting Pop Ups for local makers. They also have lots of treasures for sale. Lovey's is a wonderful place.”

“I wish I had taken pics of everyone loving these burritos! Omg! Sooo amazing! I'm so glad we were able to get breakfast burritos even after lunch! Highly recommend Guerrero's! Wish we had it in Texas!”

“very good prices recommend their peruvian coffee with a lox bagel. friendly staff”

“Definitely my go to when I am in the area. Good amount of seating and great atmosphere. The staff are friendly and helpful. The quality of my latte was better than most.”

“Best bran muffins and I love the pumpkin pie.”

“My son took me here for lunch - we’d been meaning to try it. We were very pleased - amazing view with tiered tables so other guests aren’t blocking the view. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious and nicely presented. As a nice addition, there was a pianist playing while we dined which added to the ambience. We will come back because it was such a nice treat. One of those places that makes me love living in California!”

“Great wines and lite bites”

“Yum… Can’t get enough of P-Town Coffee n Tea.”

“Love this place. The food is delicious (my fav is eggplant #45). The waitress lady is very kind and welcoming. We love the grumpy man as well. We come here every time we are in Pacifica.”

“The meat was tender and smokey with rich flavor. The ribs were tasty. My wife liked the brisket, it was moist and had good texture. The beans were ordinary. The slaw was good. Everyone liked the corn bread.”

“Breaker’s is a great comfortable place to get a broad variety of “comfort food” at a reasonable price. Staff are very welcoming and attentive. Portions are definitely biased towards large. Our favorites are Crab Panini, Patty Melt, and Monte Christo. Definitely an affordable casual good quality restaurant close to picturesque scenery with numerous hiking trails.”

“Cute place, friendly service, nice atmosphere, great white hot chocolate.”

“Everything are so delicious, I will definitely recommend it to my family and friends.”

“their chocolate cream pie is rich and tasty!”

“I had the bulletproof coffee, light roast with half and half. It is so delicious even with no sweetener. I highly recommend you stop in, the staff is super friendly and fast.”

“Highest quality bagels! Incredible service.”

“This place is wonderful! I've tried almost everything on the menu, standout items are xiaolongbao, fresh cucumber salad, zha-jiang noodles, and spicy wontons. All of the vegetable dishes are good, but the spicy green beans are my favorite. I live in the neighborhood so I go every week, one of the best places in linda mar.”

“Closest place to get a coffee and watch the waves and whales. Chili link was decent.”

“Longboard Bar and the people of Pacifica are a whole vibe. I cannot express this deep enough. Nestled along the coast, this venue is spacious, the service and hospitality of the bartenders is on point, and the people, oh the people. I'm from the city and I didn't know they got down like that.!!! Super chill or super hype within reason. You have to go!”

“Loved their vegan sandwich and the vegan rolls. Both are delicious and tasty. I could come here all the time😄only a block from the beach in Pacifica. Great find, HappyCow!”

“Such a great menu! These guys are the best!”

“While they aren't the fastest, they make pretty darn good sandwiches!

Ok...what does that opening sentence truly mean?

Well, I don't think my wife and I have ever gotten a sandwich from this spot that we didn't enjoy. Their veggies are usually very fresh and they truly make good sandwiches. They just take a long time to do it.

Last night, we decided that we wanted sandwiches for dinner and I drove into Linda Mar to get them (our other sandwich shop is Mr. Pickles and you can read that review here as well).

It appears I got there just before closing as the person who took my order said that they were only taking "to-go" orders. She didn't say it in any fashion that was off-putting...just stating it as fact. That was at about 6:40pm.

Our order was two sandwiches.

The order came out at 7:22pm, but it was perfectly made and my wife said, "It's exactly the taste I was craving."

42 minutes was quite a bit of time to make two sandwiches, but the taste was worth the wait.

The time was similar other times we've ordered from there.

Give them a shot, but plan a little time for them to make the sandwiches.

Vegetarian options: Veggie Sandwich”

“Great pho, pork chops, wonton noodles soup 🍜 and wide option of rice plates and dry vermicelli bowls. I’m so glad we have a great Vietnamese restaurant in Pacifica. Highly recommend.”

“The food is amazing! Armando is a FANTASTIC server!!”

“Fantastic Japanese experience at Sushi Kashiwa! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and each bite was packed with flavor. The ambiance feels authentic and cozy, and the staff were super friendly and attentive. I can't wait to go back for more delicious sushi!?”

“I had their americano, and on another day I had their Guatemalan coffee with a little bit of sugar. Man they know what they are doing. Loved their coffee ☕️ so much that I had to leave a review! ?”

“Great food and love supporting local Pacifica restaurants!”

“5star...best homemade food, prices and portions on the Coast!”

“Friendly staff and yummy tea. Thank you”

“I just wish they were open Sundays!!”

“My 6 friends and I arrived and the place was empty to our surprise, but we received amazing service from all employees, including the cooks! Portions were generous and food was amazing.”

“Here on vacation, saw the reviews of this place, and so glad we stopped by to try. It's take out only, owned and operated by a nice couple. Family of 4 was only $58. The food was hot, tasty, and enough of a portion size to fill you up. We will definately come back next time we are in town.”

“Great vegetarian options and sauces 😋”

“I’ve been to Grand Hot Pot in Pacifica a few times now, and it never disappoints. The broth is always flavorful and the ingredients are fresh and well-portioned. Love that they have so many options—from thin-sliced beef to seafood and tons of veggies. Plus, don’t forget the unlimited drinks, including beer and wine.

Service is consistently friendly and they’re good about keeping things moving, even when it’s busy.

It’s one of my go-to spots when I want something cozy, filling, and fun to share with friends. Always looking forward to the next visit!”

“Customer service is great!”

“Fantastic experience with the restaurant. Fat delicious burger all the ingredients are homemade very tasty and savory got my taste buds going crazy . I highly recommend this restaurant. It completely satisfied my hunger”

“Amazing family restaurant with exceptional customer service. Everyone is super pleasant and want your dining experience to be heartwarming. Go home with your belly’s full! Totally my go to for family dinners and take out pizza for a beach day!”

“Oh my god! Absolutely love this place!! The food was amazing, the miso soup hit, and the service was just the cherry on top. We had the lovely old woman who served us with amazing humor and sass, it was just lovely interacting with her. The food was so good, we had the vegetable tempura dinner (amazing), the Charlie Brown roll (real crab!!!), the Kani Kosen (bomb), and the spicy tuna roll (I’m not a huge raw fish fan but the flavor was great)!”

“These sisters treat us like family when we come by for our weekend coffee fix! Not only are they incredibly kind, they're also very conscious of the ingredients they use in their foods. I recommend trying anything with their house granola; it's got whole cashews and pumpkin seeds that add a great crunch to their organic acai bowls. Oh! And their baba ganoush is the best in town ?
They're far enough from the beach that you can escape the hustle and bustle of the weekend crowd, but still within walking distance.”

“I love pad Thai pad see Ew bbq chicken bbq libs for 5star”

“They might close before 9? Walked in Friday night at 7:20pm and most of the lights were out (but their door was open). Asked if they were open and a older gentleman gestured for us to sit. (Update: Tried to go at 7:40pm another night and they were already shut down tighter than a drum. It's like they're allergic to money.)

Food was good but service was odd. Like if you didn't grow up with a surly, emotionally distant Asian mom like I did, you may feel uncomfortable. For instance, the first thing out of her mouth was not "welcome" or simply "hi," but "no more buffet." Not sure if they meant "today" or "*ever*," but I didn't ask...?

I think the woman was the chef and not only the waitress because she walked between the kitchen and the fridge (just out in the dining room) a lot as well as served us, while the man mostly just sat there.

Garlic chicken, mo hinga (fish soup), and pork curry were great. The mo hinga was not fishy and was topped with delicious fried lentils that were like a crunchier version of tempura flakes. The pork curry included hunks of soft, gelatinous tendon (not fat but you might get confused) and came with rice. The rice noodles were a bit thin and on the cusp of becoming too soft.

Tea leaf salad was good too but not as good as at Rangoon Ruby. You have to mix it a lot or the clumps of tea will be too salty.

I feel a little snubbed that another reviewer got homemade chili sauce but we got a bottle of Huy Fong sriracha, lol.

Portions and prices are reasonable. Two of us polished off 4 dishes.

Shan noodles are apparently the dish to get at Burmese, according to Eater San Francisco, but I didn't notice they had it until later.

The menu has no prices and the bill apparently includes tax and doesn't charge any B.S. fees. We tipped well and paid cash because I couldn't trust Maps saying they take card and communication was a bit difficult.”

“the people are tu nice,❤️👌 everything it's clean 👍🏼🍻👌”

“Pulled up, service was AMAZING, staff is cool as hell. Everyone is friendly, helpful, funny, immediately made us feel like locals. Great pours. Daniel was an amazing bartender. If you need a chill spot to kick back and enjoy drinks this is the spot!”

“My favorite Chinese restaurant. We eat there each time I visit my family at Daly City and they also do home delivery!”

“If you are a sushi lover I recommend this place.
The sushi from this place is delicious. This place has the best sushi in Pacifica. I recommend the SCREENING ALASKA AND THE CHIRASHI DON. Everything is delicious. But those 2 are my favorite.”

“This was my first visit to this storefront Trattoria. While this isn't an attractive venue, it is quite comfortable. All the white tablecloth tabletops make it warm and welcoming. The food is well prepared. There is an ample menu. The caprese salad, Pollo Saltimbocca, and limoncello cake were fantastic. All portions are very generous. Except for the cake. I could have eaten an entire cake, instead of just a slice! Our waiter, Eduardo, was attentive but never intrusive. I'll be back soon.

Parking: 761 Hickey Blvd. - In the Fairmont Shopping Center of Daly City

Kid-friendliness: Children are welcome”

“Lots of hazy IPAs (or foggy IPAs as they call them) at reasonable prices for a craft brewery. The beers and food come out quickly using their QR code ordering system. I recommend the seasoned tater tots.”

“Bonito lugar con linda vista Asia el mar”

“Tea World is my favorite boba shop in Pacifica.”

“The best place to eat Hot & sour soup in pacifica.”

“One of the few fast food options with real vegetables available and all at a reasonable price. The new app brings some much appreciated discounts for repeat customers. This particular location can be fairly generous with portions but once in a while you will get one of the smaller servers who also thinks smaller portions of food is acceptable but I would disagree. Service is fast and almost never out of any of the main dishes or available mostly fresh in a few minutes of ordering. Thank you to all staff for providing good service at one of the few options for health concerned people.”

“This is the perfect place to get a great bite of food and a tasty beer. Relaxed environment with a friendly Seahorse / ocean vibe. Owner is welcoming and makes some incredible food. They have tv, music, fireplace and games. Check it out when you’re in the area! 10/10.”

“Ok, I got there and thought the prices were high until I got my beautiful bussin plate o food!! Wow! I could have shared my plate with 2 other ppl. This is a family own business. I could tell. Momma served me, son was finishing up his plate o food next to ne at the bar and when he was finished he went to the back to clean up, and dad made all the food at the grill. Such a warm, cozy, family atmosphere! Everyone was taken care of! ✨️ ? I ate on that French toast all day! So tasty, too!! ?

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes.”

“We love this place and come here every time we’re in Pacifica. There’s friendly atmosphere, outside tables, and good healthy food. We usually get a burrito- which are tasty and big, and this time we added a tamale which I really enjoyed as well. I’ve tried quite a few things here and loved them all. I’m mostly vegetarian and husband loves meat and this place is great for both of us.

Vegetarian options: Is easy to have a great vegetarian meal here. I love the veggie burrito options.”

“We love it here! Their ranch is the best, it's to die for!!! The workers are so sweet and take good care of us!! 10/5 star experience for sure! Love our besties at wingstop especially Delcy! God sent!🫶”

“Super delish! Service is good....”

“The staff at the Oceana Blvd. Starbucks is awesome!! They are very personable, remember your name and what you like to drink. They wished me a happy birthday the day before my birthday ( when I used my birthday reward) Then on my birthday they wished me a happy birthday again. Good job!!!”

“The señorita bread is incredible! We will definitely be back for more. The person working the register when we visited last night was extremely warm and helpful!”

“good food with huge serves.. very casual.”

“i seldom dine-in in this place but always when i crave for some pizza and especially a great delicious pasta VIVA ITALIANO IS THE BEST @ pacifica, ca. They served always the food freshly cooked and it’s really delicious and the people that worked there are friendly. Worth everything!”

“as a latino I really love this place. the food is a little greasy and messy and that's how I like it. The quesabirrias are very good, quessadillas are a little sloppy, the carne asada is nice and charred. free chips, salsa, and pickled jalapeños.
the restaurant is not a fancy place to eat and I think that's great.”
