Eat.

Pacific Rim has an extensive menu featuring fresh sushi & sashimi, yakitori, delicious tapas, Japanese entrees and enticing desserts.

Don’t miss out on the delectable rolls, sushi and sashimi offerings at Pacific Rim. Our recommendation is the yuzu salmon with delicate cuts of fresh salmon paired beautifully with refreshing citrus flavors.

The yakitori is a customer favorite at Pacific Rim. Our top yakitori picks are the rich pork belly, tantalizing bacon-wrapped shrimp & scallops, mouth-watering salmon and fresh vegetables skewers.

Both the chilled Gulf oysters and the kani fried Gulf oysters are phenomenal. The kani fried oysters are lightly fried in Japanese tempura and topped with tempura kani.

Co-owner Benny Leung shared a few exiting new menu items with us to include a variety of comforting dim sum dumplings and the slow cooked short ribs. Both the delightful shrimp and the savory opened-faced pork dumplings are incredibly addicting. The slow cooked ribs are marinated in Korean BBQ sauce and smoked seasoning.

Drink.

The full bar includes an extensive wine list, a nice lineup of beers, fine sake and refreshing Polynesian cocktails. The daily happy hour is from 3 p.m. to closing on Monday through Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 5 p.m. to closing. Happy hour includes $2 off cocktails & wine, $1 off beer & sake and a sizable happy hour food menu.
