Was a bit disappointed in the ceviche. Literally a bowl of red onions, 3 pieces of seafood. Cake was amazing. Steak was amazing.

The food was fabulous! The crab cake and the Camarones y Vieras con Ravioli de Langosta entree were especially outstanding. We arrived at 4:30 for a very early dinner, and the place was peacefully quiet. Our servers were great at taking and delivering our food orders, and attentively kept my husband's water glass filled (no mean feat). The young man who took my wine order seemed unfamiliar with wines in general, and did not make useful recommendations from Pacifico's wine list. He asked multiple times if I wanted to order a second glass; I thought I was clear the first time that one glass was it for me. Highly recommend Pacifico. We'll be back!

We had a great birthday celebration for my partner! We had the entire upstairs to ourselves, so conversation flowed without interruption. They gladly adjusted the temperature and even offered to make sure we were fully taken care of before the kitchen closed.

Wanted to try this place b4 the big head todd show at the theater. My burrata appetizer was one of the best I've ever had. The Latin combo of chili's with beets and burrata was amazing. My wife had their shrimp ceviche which was outstanding. The rest of the meal was very good as were the drinks. Only knock on the place is that it is so cold inside you need to wear a jacket to eat!
