About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Charming
An institution in Dallas dining for over 40 years, Cafe Pacific embodies sophistication while remaining decidedly unpretentious. Our friendly "neighborhood seafood restaurant" has garnered praise both locally and nationally for its casual elegance. You’ll dine in the warm glow of dark mahogany, rich marble, etched glass and polished brass. The walls are adorned with art from the owner's collection.

Proper Dress Required (No T-Shirts, Shorts or Flip Flops.)

Cafe Pacific is nestled in Highland Park Village, Dallas' premiere shopping locale, where pampering is the order of the day. From the complimentary valet parking to the outstanding service from our knowledgeable veteran staff, Cafe Pacific offers you sophistication without a hint of snobbery.

    Cafe Pacific remains one of the best restaurant in Dallas. Excellent menu - fish, steaks, pasta - simply a variety of more than 20 choices. Excellent oysters, soups, salads and appetizers. Very friendly wine list. Great service - many waiters have been there 25 years or more. Worth the trip.

    This is a local establishment. It was my 2nd time. It was my 1st time to take my husband. Noise level was bearable for him, as he has tinnitus and is very sensitive to noise. We were on the younger side of the crowd (50's) and our daughter (SMU student) was the youngest in restaurant. Food and service were excellent. We will definitely return!

    The food, service, and ambience were all fantastic. The services provided by the professional management and staff are the main reasons that we keep coming back. The old world elegance is a rare thing, and we value their focus to make sure that everything about the dining experience is excellent. I highly recomend this restaurant.

    Best seafood meal I’ve had in years. The snapper was sublime and the redfish melted in my mouth. Our server was the best and had incredible humor.

    While we have enjoyed Café Pacific over the years it does seem things are changing in some of the questions we received form our server last night. While the food is still superb with an excellent wine list this type of quest is really not acceptable. This is becoming a pattern as the questions have been similar with different servers the last three visits. Hopefully management will come to the rescue and make adjustments of what a top tier restaurant should chat about with a guest.

    As always for 25 years we’ve been going here, the classiest restaurant in Dallas. Relaxed, elegant, quiet and tasetful. Our waiter has been there 40 years and a consummate pro. Don’t go here if you want “to be seen” and want big and loud like the steakhouses.
