Food was absolutely delicious. Burger was fresh and juicy, edamame was perfectly seasoned, and the fish and chips were just amazing. The fish and chips tasted fresh and the fries were seasoned perfectly. I'd recommend the truffle parm fries as they tasted lovely and complimented the fish and the burger perfectly. Our waiter, Shawn, was super friendly and patient! The restaurant was pristine and beautiful, and the lights weren't painfully bright, setting the perfect light level for anything like a date to a friendly hangout. The chair were super comfortable to sit in and it wasn't too loud! Would totally recommend! :D read more

Honestly hands down the best place in town. Ericka is the best. Funny, friendly and very helpful.

Came to Pacific Coast Fish for a quick bite in between my sons basketball games that were about 5 minutes away. The plan was to share a few snacks. It didn't go that way once we went through the menu. lol My husband ordered the fish and chips which he absolutely loved. The fish was dense and not overly battered. The fish was fresh and buttery. I got a poke bowl, it was full of flavor and the fish was not fishy. My son got a yellow tail fish bowl, it had many ingredients and flavors that he really enjoyed. We also got the crudo to share which was generous and delicious. After starting our meals we added a clam chowder because at this point we just had to know. It was actually so good, it had great flavor. Not just salty. I liked the big chunks of veggies that were in there but I would have liked just a few more pieces of clam. Service was extremely friendly and attentive from start to finish. This restaurant was a great find, it had modern decor, was not too bright or loud and had a small amount of seating at the bar and lots of tables. read more

Fresh fish, excellent service, and easy parking. Saw someone mention this place on Nextdoor app so I decided to check it out, especially since I just recently started spending more time in Seal Beach. Came here with my daughter and we were immediately greeted by Erica (think that is her name). She seemed to be the only one up front, working both the bar and the restaurant, but she was quite efficient and energetic. Got here about 15 minutes before end of happy hour so was able to get in 2 items from the happy hour menu and Grilled Fish Bowl. Happy hour is from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday to Sunday. Chef's Crudo was very refreshing and vibrant. Fish used for the day was hamachi, which was served with cucumber, avocado, fresno, jalapeno, cilantro, and aguachile. Poke Bowl was fresh and tasty. It came with diced tuna in sesame-soy based sauce, diced apples, seaweed, wasabi-tobiko, sweet onion, green onion, avocado, and jasmine rice. Grilled Fish Bowl was very satisfying and tasted clean. The fish for the day was yellowtail but I could've chosen any other fish of the day. I just went with the default choice. The fish was lightly seasoned but there was some sweet soy-sesame sauce at the bottom of the bowl , which added really nice flavor. The bowl consisted of jasmine rice, cucumber salad, pico de Gallo, queso fresco, picked red onion, and cilantro. Service was enthusiastic, friendly, and helpful. Erica did a great job in explaining everything and making us feel welcome. Food came out really fast too. I plan to come back in next few days with my entire family to try more items. read more

I had a great visit here and the food was fresh, delicious and well cooked! The server Sean was very patient and friendly, he answered my questions about fish given I need to be safe eating lower mercury fish. He made sure to ensure the order was cooked to the right level! The ambiance was great; music level was perfect beach vibes, outdoorsy, and laid back reminded me of some sea side spots in Seattle. Appreciated the calm and relaxing service here the ambiance was also very clean and bright. A good spot and I bet you can't go wrong with the food, taste here was spot on for me and would be back when I'm in the area. read more

I buy fish from these guys almost every week at the HB farmers market. It's fresh, sashimi grade, and I have yet to be let down. Every dish I've made with their fish, my family has loved so I decided to take my mom and MIL here when it was their last official meal together since my mom wanted to treat my MIL. MIL got fish tacos that she loved, my mom got a fish salad that she devoured, and my sister got a carpaccio and truffle fries. Service was amazing. I'm pretty sure they forgot the fries but they were quick to get on it when I brought it up. The fries are SO good. I got a clam chowder which was a little too salty for me but the toast that came with it was SO good. read more

Pacific Coast Fish - Clam chowder - Seafood Near Me - Seal Beach, California

I don't remember having a better seafood anywhere in the United States. The only other place where I had better seafood was in Sweden, back in 2016. The fish was fresh, and it's also expertly prepared by the chef. The fisherman's stew had a balanced taste between the natural brine of the seafood and the tanginess of the tomato. Even the bread that came with the soup was perfectly toasted. It's not everyday when I experienced a Ratatouille moment, when a food critic was overwhelmed by emotions and moved close to tears. This unassuming restaurant holds the secret to culinary nirvana. Help spread the word, but not too fast because I still want to enjoy coming here without a huge crowd. read more

Excellent restaurant and dining experience. Great place and pleasant atmosphere. The food was fantastic and the fish was very fresh. Even for my family who do not particularly like raw fish, they admitted that they enjoyed it very much and would have it again at this restaurant. We especially enjoyed the crudo and the stew. Elise, the waitress, was absolutely fantastic. She is exceptionally kind and courteous. 11/10 would highly recommend Pacific Coast Fish Co. read more

My husband and I were craving seafood for lunch so we decided to stop by here. We decided to order the fish & chips, clam chowder, and ahi tuna sandwich since they were recommended to us by our server. I've had fish & chips all over the world, including the UK and Canada, and I can confidently say that the fried fish is among the best I've tried. The batter was so light and crispy and the cod was fluffy and juicy. I also upgraded the fries to the truffle parm seasoning and it was totally worth it. The clam chowder was just the consistency I like; not too thick and not too runny. The bread that came with it was soo good. And the ahi tuna in the sandwich was super fresh. Our server Bella was also so incredibly friendly and helpful to us. Overall, food and service was a 10/10 and I would definitely come again. read more

Was served by Airica. She's always so sweet and welcoming. The food is so fresh and amazing. I had the soy ginger crudo and it was to die for! Fish was fresh and the soy ginger sauce I literally drank from the plate . Then I ordered the calamari. It was so tender and not chewy like other restaurants have. The spicy sweet sauce was so tasty! Will definitely be coming again! Thank you guys! read more

I may have eaten all my food before I took a picture. But I did take a picture of the beautiful setting and great server. Cody was our server and he was amazing on recommendations of food. We started with the calamari that was so good and the sauces were both complimenting of the calamari. We then decided on sharing the Mahi Mahi Fish sandwich and the Mahi Mahi fish Tacos. They were amazing again, I know I could think of another word haha This is an amazing local spot with fresh fish and a great attentive staff. You would be missed out if you didn't try it. I'll get pictures of the actual food next time. read more

I will definitely be coming back to explore the menu. The restaurant is really nice inside as well. Great friendly service from all of the staff. See you all again real Soon. read more

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Every dish we ordered was delicious and beautifully prepared. This is our second time here. The Chef's Crudo was incredibly fresh and delicate, with flavors that truly let the fish shine. The Aguachile Ceviche (my fav) was bright, refreshing, and perfectly balanced--fresh fish, citrus, and just the right kick. The calamari was light, crispy, and not greasy at all, and the fish tacos were packed with flavor, fresh toppings, and perfectly cooked fish. You can really taste the quality and care in every plate. A huge shoutout to Johnny at the bar--he is so kind, attentive, and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Great service paired with amazing food is always a win. We loved everything and can't wait to come back. Highly recommend! Perfect for date night. read more

The service was great however, having to pay for 2 pieces of fish $28 it's ridiculous. I wouldn't go back. Also, we ordered a burrito that was rice filled only the $24! read more

Great fish sandwich (grilled halibut). Well prepared and fresh. However, quite on the pricey side for a sandwich and fries.

I'm so happy we were able to give this place another shot! This place was great, featuring multiple fresh local fish, their menu has options to enjoy any of them raw or cooked. The chef curates the entrees each day to feature whichever catch of the day would work best with that particular dish. The burrito pairing I enjoyed used a seared Ono, a mild and slightly sweet white fish with a good meaty texture, and I was so pleasantly surprised at how intentionally the burrito flavors were balanced to not overpower the protein. The flavors were soft and subtle with no big acidic punches or heavy spices (which in any other context would be welcome), truly a confident choice in recipe development that shows how much effort and care they put into the fish they procure. On the table was a fantastic spicy tuna crispy rice, perfectly cooked and seasoned truffle fries, and some of the best New England style clam chowder I've had in years. We actually got another bowl to take home and share! The decor is elegant but inviting, the aesthetic was clearly very lovingly conceived and shows a strong sense of identity. The staff was friendly, the prices were shockingly reasonable, and the passion showed. Excited to add this place to our roster any time we have a hankering for fresh fish done well or have family visiting! read more

Great time over there! Had a little trouble with the signage at the door, but when we figured it out, we had a lovely time. Our waitress Elise was a rockstar and very forgiving about our troubles ordering. The food was wonderful, and I think I ate about a half loaf of the toasted bread by myself! I would totally recommend it to anyone in the surrounding area. read more

Pacific Coast Fish is the kind of spot that reminds you why fresh seafood done right is unbeatable. We grabbed seats at the bar top for dinner service, and from start to finish, everything just clicked. We started with the Chef's Crudo, and let me tell you this dish stole the show. Bright, fresh, and balanced, with flavors so good you'll be tempted to drink the sauce straight from the plate. Easily a must order. The Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice was another knockout it was light, perfectly crisp (you can tell the oil was fresh), and one of the best versions I've had. The Ceviche was refreshing and clean but honestly the other two apps outshined it. For mains, my girlfriend had the Fish Tacos while I went classic with the Fish & Chips. Both were executed with care and you can taste the quality of the fish and the thought in the ingredients. Nothing felt heavy, just satisfying. And dessert? The Key Lime Pie was a surprise highlight it was zesty, perfectly portioned for sharing, and the ideal way to close out the meal. A special shoutout to our server Sean, who was fantastic. Thorough, attentive, and clearly passionate about the food and the experience he really elevated the night. Between the stellar apps, fresh quality, laid back coastal vibe, and genuine hospitality, Pacific Coast Fish easily earns a full 5 stars. Already planning a return visit this one's a gem for Seal Beach. read more

Winner, winner, seafood dinner! I recently won a raffle at a golf fundraiser where I met Chad and tried his seared ahi fish tacos for the first time. The taco was a hole in one! Presentation to portion size were on point. I took my wife and some friends to dine at the restaurant last night and Chad outdid himself again. Friendly and personable service staff with killer decor to boot. We started with the charred edamame and ceviche apps. Both set the stage perfectly for the main entrees. Next, we tried the ahi fish sandwich, the halibut plate, ono fish tacos, and jumbo lump crab roll. (Sorry, we missed a few snaps because we were so eager to eat the food). The freshness and flavor profiles are unmatched. Let's just say there were no "to-go" boxes needed! So if you're looking for the freshest fish in town with a small beachside vibe, Pacific Coast Fish is where it's at! Be sure to make a rezy, the place was packed by 6:00 pm. Looking forward to going back soon. read more
