Delicious, healthy food. I had one of the bowls and it was great. Lots of options for dairy free, gluten free or vegetarian diets. The staff is super friendly and helpful. There's a nice outdoor patio. It's super kid friendly. Would highly recommend this spot.

So wish we had one of these where we live. When are you expanding to AZ, Mendocino?! Lots of gluten free options and they have great iced tea. I miss it already and look forward to the next visit.

Pizza's great including the gluten free pizzas. Waygu cheeseburger was juicy and delicious. My tastebuds didn't care for the Oakwood chicken entree, waiter took it away and brought a delicious Waygu burger.

Really tasty lunch! From start to finish, almost everything was executed flawlessly. We were quickly seated, our server Trinity was prompt and very friendly and helpful, and they were great with gluten allergies too. The food was not quick to arrive, but was very worth the wait. The enchiladas were delicious. I had the Chipotle chicken and my friend the pork mole. Both super yummy. Another friend had the El Mercado salad and she was very satisfied. The queso fundido was good too. Only problem we had was one of the silverware sets at the table wasn’t clean. But that was quickly remedied. Prices are reasonable, the restaurant is breezy and fairly quiet at lunch. Really good spot and I’ll be back soon!

Came here for my buddies birthday. I ordered the sashimi platter and it was extremely fresh and well presented. Drinks came out super fast. Our entire group enjoyed their food, and they catered really well for gluten free. Service was fantastic, and the owner poured us some birthday drinks, hung up a happy birthday sign, sang a song and comped a birthday desert. It was a fantastic experience and I'II be coming back here regularly.

Excellent healthy food and service. When I told them that my daughter has a wheat allergy, the employee brought over her manager, they changed gloves, and they went over all of the ingredients of her bowl for safety. Her bowl was wheat/gluten free and delicious. Most of their menu is gluten free, and we greatly appreciated the extra precautions they took to accommodate us. Every family member ordered something different and each of the bowls was very tasty. Will be back soon!

We LOVE Pacific Social! Their brussels sprouts are to die for and we love their cocktails. Recently we happened to go on a Sunday and our server told us about their epic Sunday Date Night Deal. We got a full order of brussels sprouts, a half chicken entree, braised short rib entree, AND a bottle of wine for $55. It was insane and SO delicious. Our server, Aram, was the man. Super helpful and kind and made sure the food was gluten free for me. We will definitely be back on another Sunday! Highly recommend!
