| - After reading the rest of the reviews I wonder if we went to the same place!!?
I finally got the opportunity to have dinner at Catch and had high hopes for a wonderful meal of seafood - instead I got lack lustre service and an even more disappointing culinary experience. Things did not get off to a great start, although they do have a great wine list, ordering a cocktail before dinner proved to be quite challenging: no crantini, no Bellini, and no Lemonhart and no Stella! We finally found 4 cocktails that would work & ordered, even after all that we still had to send back one of the cocktails!
We did have lots of time to ponder the menu as we waited for our server, and waited...and waited the cocktails were done, the bread was finished off and we were eager to order our starters and our main course but the waiter was no where to be found.
Once our meals arrived we "dived" in but the food experience was underwhelming to say the least - the lobster risotto was more paste like than creamy and lacked flavour, it was topped with half a lobster (slightly chewy) and served without a hint of a vegetable, definitely not worth the price..$49.00 The tuna was under cooked to the point that the fish wasn't just pink in the middle but still cold to the touch when it arrived, our friends fared slightly better, finding their dishes adequate but by no means at the level they had expect given the $$ and the reputation of this establishment.
All in all a big disappointment won't be back and won't recommend to anyone.
