great restaurant, a must when you visit Napier! Tapas style food and great presentation! More

Pacifica has quite a following, and by the amount of air kisses, quite a few repeat customers, however, we didn't think it quite delivered on it's promise. For small plate fine dining, we do expect some fantastic flavours which sadly did not materialise. The advised wine choices we had were certainly good and showed good experience from the host who...

If you are wondering about a place to try some delicious food while in Napier, this is definitely worth the visit! The restaurant is simple but the food is anything but. The staff are friendly and professional and really come across as passionate about the food on the menu. Our waitress explained the menu to us, including the whims the... More

Everything from the quiet friendly atmosphere to the food and wine choice, presentation and delivery and taste and texture were outstanding More

We came here for a special occasion and it was a great choice. Rebecca is a charming host who made a special effort to make us feel welcome. Our wine waitress was extremely... More

I made only one reservation for my recent three week trip to NZ and it was to Pacifica. I kept hearing about it online and the buzz was excellent. And Rebecca and Jeremy live up to expectation. They are a charming and talented couple creating food that is world class. We did the tasting menu and each course presented a... More
