   Everything we had was great. From Branzino, Skirt Steak, burger & fries, to cocktails! Definitely will be back.

   This was our first visit to A PCH—but definitely not our last! On a busy Saturday night, the restaurant and bar were packed, a clear sign of its popularity. The four of us loved every bite, sip, and spoonful. Our entrées were outstanding: a perfectly executed classic chicken piccata, an elevated take on cacio e pepe with a hint of lemon, the aptly named Fancy Pizza with pesto instead of red sauce, and Scottish salmon served with their signature Mexican hash—sliced fingerlings and poblanos in a creamy cilantro sauce. Dessert was just as impressive. The Basque cheesecake was simple yet delicious, with fresh mint, cinnamon whipped cream, and fresh blueberries glistening in a light syrup. I also tried a cocktail featuring Japanese whiskey, Benedictine, walnut bitters, and cinnamon-stick smoke—a beautifully balanced, next-level riff on an Old Fashioned. Our server, Florindo from Milan, was exceptional—attentive, congenial, and deeply knowledgeable about the entire menu, including wine and cocktails. The support staff was equally professional, keeping our water glasses full and the table impeccably maintained. With its comfortable, marina-facing setting and artful ambiance, A PCH provides the perfect backdrop for great food and conversation. We can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu!

   We love going here as the food is always delicious and the wait staff is friendly and first-rate. The "outdoor seating" that is enclosed in the winter is great because you have a view of the water and the boats. Last night, my husband ate a filet mignon that was cooked to perfection and he had the sourdough bread and the mushrooms. I had the seared tuna salad and it was delightful in its presentation and was constructed beautifully—as well as tasting divine. A also has incredible craft cocktails to please any palate. I had the Sandia last night and recommend it.

   A PCH is always decent foodwise, but they have a staff issue. One out of every two meals has terrible service. Last night our server took 15 mins to introduce himself, Florindo, and then dissapeared again. finally ordered drinks which took a while to come out. server finally appeared again, so we ordered our app and main courses. Food came out quickly, but the busboy had cleared our silverware and said the server would bring us new flatware. Unfortunately, the server didnt come back for another 10 mins, so we sat there with our food in front of us, but unable to eat. had to track down another server to get us silverware. then watched that server go tell our server something. our server came back and didnt offer any apology. i informed him that I was upset by his lack of attention and he didn't say anything. literally the worst service I have had at A. but not unexpected.

   Our waitress was absolutely amazing—attentive, friendly, and made the entire experience even better. One of the best perks is their nightcap deal: after dinner, just mention “nightcap” and you get a discount on one drink at the bar. It’s such a great touch that keeps me coming back. I love the warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the quality of their steaks is unmatched. Highly recommend for a fantastic dining experience!

   Although we each had a hamburger on the happy hour menu and 2 glasses of wine and split salad, the tab was $168.
