About this business
The simple décor of this restaurant allows the food room to shine. This venue is located in Cleveland Heights' funky Coventry district and offers Japanese standards like tempura (golden-fried seafood, vegetables, and chicken), nigiri sushi, and sashimi. Pacific East also features specialty Malaysian dishes like Mango Jumbo Shrimp, Hainanese Chicken, and Rendang (meat simmered with exotic spices, lemongrass, and coconut-milk curry). They tempt patrons with a variety of sakes to compliment their meals. - Marjorie Jensen

Best in town by far – This place is by far the best sushi in Cleveland. Ignore the awards anyone gets - these are based on advertising. Pacific East has the freshest, best cuts you'll get. My only complaint would be the lack of variety of rolls, because that's more of an American adaptation of sushi and they're a little too authentic to play that game. On the other hand, you can design your own so who cares. The service is rapid and frequent, and the quantities are hefty. The price is pretty much the same or a little less th... read more
Good enough for a quick fix – I've gone to this place several times, and the food is pretty good, if not authentic. The last time I went, I ordered a donburi (rice bowl with soupy egg topping and choice of meat), and the cooks clearly didn't know what they were doing. They mixed takuan (white radish pickle) into the donburi, something akin to pouring your wine on top of your entree--those things are supposed to be separate. Kind of gross, especially since takuan is an acquired taste for most Americans. They also mixed in the... read more
Call first for Malaysian food – We went there several times now and we always call first to find out if they were sereving malaysian menu that night - the reason for that is because they only have of whihc I think 1 cook that can cook malaysian food. ANd this cook for some reason is not always there. Nice restaurant, malaysian food had it's own menu with quite extensive options, and you can say that the food is good.
Thank you from a visitor – Last night in Cleveland, wanting Japanese food...No teppiyaki, no over priced sushi bar...Okay, found this place on internet...Parking left something to be desired...Once I got in, I could see why...The food was phenomenal, the service was great, the value was worth the drive from Tower City...Tempura was very light and crunchy, the miso soup didn't taste like it was a package, the gohan was perfect...This sansei from Phoenix, loves this place; if work takes me back to Cleveland, I will be back and... read more
Editorial Review by Christy Buena – Romantic, family-friendly restaurant serves sushi and authentic Japanese cuisine at reasonable prices and offers a full bar.
best sushi in cleveland, clean and delicious! – I first started going to Pacific east when my family came here, on a recommendation. Now this is the restaurant that my family most often frequents. We are serious about good food, especially good asian cuisine, driving to canada just for the good restaurants. Depending on the day, the sashimi is fresh and excellent. When I say depending on the day, I mean the day that they have their weekly shipment of fish it is the freshest. They added a malaysian menu that also has deliciou... read more
Could actually the best sushi in the Cleveland area – If you're looking for excellent sushi in the Cleveland area, be forewarned: for some reason, the downtown Sushi Rock, and its sister establishment in Beachwood, keep receiving accolades as "the best sushi in Cleveland." Make no mistake here: these two establishments, in my experience, are essentially painfully trendy (and expensive!) bars that happen to serve decent sushi. If you're looking for an actual Japanese restaurant that serves brilliant sushi, Pacific East is per... read more
All of Cleveland is buzzing about the new Malaysian cuisine in town, and being Malaysian myself, I decided to put it to the test. I tried 3 of the many Malaysian staples that they had to offer: the Kueh Teow (like chow-fun, only better) and it was very authentic. So was the Hainanese Chicken rice and the Bobo Kacang ( dessert). Safe to say I will be back to test the extensive menu to make sure it lives up to expectations of my Malaysian palate.
best sushi in OHIO – I've eaten sushi in just about every sushi restaurant in Ohio. I've eaten in top notch NY, LV, & Chicago sushi houses. Pacific East is the most dependable & freshest sushi you will find between NY & Chicago. Problem is, now it's the ONLY restaurant that I ever want to go to....
