I ordered the ecology salad, the Dijon dressing was delicious and the pickled veggies were good, but they used iceberg lettuce instead of what is listed on the menu (Arugula, quinoa etc) and that was disappointing. Iceberg lettuce is just water, no nutrients.

Pacific Café catered our event tonight, which was a grand opening for a women run business in San Clemente. In spite of this being a crazy day, I cannot go to bed tonight without singing the accolades of their catering service! The menu items were inventive, unique, and absolutely delicious. The chef came and set everything up with a beautiful visual display, which complemented the amazing taste of every item served. Every single person who attended this event raved about how delicious the food was. I am a self proclaimed foodie, and the variety and execution of these finger foods was amazing!….better than many 4&5 star restaurants that I have eaten in. if you are fortunate enough to book them for an event, you will not regret it! Thank you to Chef for making an amazing evening even more spectacular!

San Juan Needs more places and people like Pacific Pearl and their Chefs! I’ve tried nearly everything in the menu, including the pastries and coffees. Everything is quality, and the people behind the counter clearly know and care about what they’re doing and the community they serve. My favorite lunch combo is the grilled cheese with tomato bisque and I often order a double chocolate gluten free cookie (it’s gigantic). They do a lot of pickling of different veggies that make their flavors so unique! Thanks for all you do Pacific Pearl!

I bought an Apple pie for a Thanksgiving party - it was super delicious and the presentation was excellent. Multiple people at the party raved about it and said it was the best apple pie they ever had, and two texted me today asking for their info. I’ve never had such a strong reaction before! They were very friendly to boot.I’d highly recommend them!

Best carnitas breakfast burrito!! Full of flavor!! This is a very health-conscious coffee place. They have a small but lovely menu. From their truck outside, it looks like they do catering as well. I wish them as ll the best!!💕

Saw that Chef Michael Campbell had fresh fish so the wife and I dropped by for the ahi (local bluefin) poke bowl and the yellowtail melt sandwich. Outstanding! The bowl was a mix of local produce, organic brown rice and pickled Brussel sprout leaves and perfectly coated small cubes of melt in your mouth bluefin. Note: I normally hate Brussel sprouts. Not these tangy snappy leaves. Chef Michael pickles them himself and also cans jams and salsas. The yellowtail melt was made with house smoked yellowtail salad and with the house secret sauce and fried green tomato. We’ll be back!

The media noche sandwich is a must have for meat eaters. It’s so smooth and tasty. The Yosemite salad was also great. Delicious pour over coffee and great staff and a clean establishment. Two thumbs up for the Pacific Pearl Cafe. I’m already thinking of what to order next.
