Went several weeks ago and sat at the outside portion of the bar, and it was nice. What we ate was good! The service was okay but after the food was delivered, I had to ask for silverware and napkins.

We visit this place couple times thanks.I like it very much. This time I make a reservation for special occasion birthday. Upon arrival we didn't have our table?? They did try tohelp us finding out the table. Hostess waiter is a little bit slower.. I order West coast style grilled salmon bowl. It comes with a mixed organic green's colifflower, avocado,.. Quinoa blend.. I told waiter to take brown rice from my order and add extra quinoa. When food arrived,l noticed that Quinoa is missing from my salad dish. I immediately called the waiter. He came and tried to convince me that 3 little pieces of Quinoa, which look like a pepper on my plate..that is what's supposed to be Quinoa in my salad .We've been surprised, and took it like a joke ,so we order extra Quinoa again. Waiter came back with a small, extra small,l can say, plastic little dish which looks like what they serve Ketchup in pizza places. Ok ;) ,this is getting even more funny. To make a long story short, l m not happy with our experience last night. I like the atmosphere in restaurant, location..but this time the food didn't satisfied out expectations.We will give it a try one more time :)

Excellent services and very accommodating. I had to bring in my own food due to a temporary diet restriction. They let me do that so that I could sit with my friends for their lunch.

The restaurant is a great place to have something to eat. The service is fast, friendly and attentive. But yes, it really depends on the food and that was, how do I put it, meh. Whitefish grilled on the skin can be very tasty, but if you burn all the life out of it, you are left with a dry bite in which you can just discover the potential of the fish. The garnish consisted of green beans and Korean Brussels sprouts. The green beans were the highlight of the plate, delicious with an oriental sauce. The Brussels sprouts seemed to have been clubbed to death with a red-hot poker: flattened and on the verge of being burned. A miss. The dessert of a cream in a fried wrap served with a parfait was a welcome, tasty ending, but could not make up for the main course. We did drink a very nice local rosé with it. One of those that they keep at home in California and that we will probably never get in the Netherlands. In this case, she trumped the food. All this for $90 including tip for one person makes you long for the Seafood Bar in Utrecht. It also costs a bit, but then you really have something tasty.

We recently enjoyed Pacific Catch in Stanford during their happy hour. They offer delicious small plates and drinks at great prices – perfect for a casual bite or after-shopping treat. The dishes we tried boasted good flavor and value, making it a good option for a satisfying and affordable happy hour experience. Based on our experience, the Stanford location seems to have a slight edge over the Mountain View location so give it a try.

Are you kidding me? I placed my order with your server, and not only did he forget one of the items, he had the gall to blame me for his mistake! He claimed I should have reminded him when he checked back. How could I remind him of something I wasn't even aware was missing? It's completely ludicrous! And to make matters worse, when I needed assistance, other servers were too busy chatting to bother checking on the customers. It felt like my needs were just being blatantly ignored! Your staff's primary responsibility is to ensure that orders are correct and customers are looked after—not to leave us feeling like we have to manage them to get decent service. I don't go out to eat to have such a frustrating experience, especially not at a place like yours. This should be a wake-up call to overhaul how you train your team. They need to own up to their errors and handle their duties professionally to avoid ruining the dining experience for their guests. And about the takeout? It was a total disaster. I ordered online, arrived, and waited without any updates. My food was just sitting there—ignored like me. And the fish? It made me sick. And your server, Alma? I swiped my card, didn't show me the total and walked off without giving me a receipt despite my asking. I had to chase her down to close out my payment. Take this feedback seriously. You must use it to genuinely improve your staff's training and ensure better customer service. Otherwise, you're not running a restaurant; you're running a circus where the clowns are in charge.

The fish was funky and I got sick afterwards. You don’t want the details. Server Alma swiped my card without letting me see the total and walked away without giving me a receipt even though I requested one. Had to wait forever for the receipt after already waiting forever to be allowed to pay.

My only complaint is the glasses and napkins were dirty. They were quickly replaced. Food was great and reasonably priced. We were seated before 6pm so we got happy hour prices for most of our order!

Lunch specials on weekdays reasonably yummy and reasonably priced. They made a mistake in taking our order but fixed it promptly and very courteously.
