Catch 109: Reviews & Ratings
Great food, great service and great atmosphere. My wife and I came in and were greeted and seated within a minute or so. I had the feature tonight and it was delicious. Pistachio encrusted Red Drum, crispy fingerling potatoes, sauteed kale and mushrooms, white bean truffle pure and an apple cider reduction to top it off. The restaurant is called Catch 109, but the real catch is Chef Reale, what a tall drink of water
The food is amazing. Everything is made fresh to order. They have a great selection of fish. We love the truffle fries and tuna poke for an appetizer. All of their fish selections are incredible. The the cocktails are fantastic. They have a nice selection of bourbons and tequilas. I highly recommend for a date night!
Went here this evening for Restaurant Week and we were not disappointed. Everything, from being greeted at the door, to the quick service, amazing food, ambiance, great timing between courses - everything was so good. We had never been there and came in our lounge/after work clothes and definitely felt like we should have dressed up a bit more business casual at the least (but we never felt judged or ignored). Also, the use of fresh herbs and ingredients was not lost on us. We'll be back - and better dressed.
This was our first time visiting, and we got lucky finding this place. We arrived at about 5:00 pm, with no wait for a table. We had the Charbroiled oysters, stuffed Mahi, Blackened Tuna burger, and Crab Cake BLT. Every bit of it was delicious. Also ordered a couple of very tasty Old-Fashions to drink. The Painkiller drink was also very good. The service was attentive and friendly. Plenty of free parking was available during our visit.
My fiance and I ate here for our anniversary last night, customer service was outstanding and the food was delicious! We had the Charbroiled Oysters, Spicy Tuna Sushi, Shrimp Tacos & Stuffed Mahi. We will definitely be back!
I was thoroughly impressed last night with Catch. From the minute I walked in the door everyone was on their game. I wish I would have taken a before picture of my meal... but sometimes a clean plate speaks volumes as well! Service, drinks, food, everything...Five Stars.
I was back in November and early December of 2023 and they are still crushing... grilled oysters are to die for and I always highly recommend their specials. I went here to eat this past month. I had the charred oysters and their special witch head pork belly on top of it. It was absolutely phenomenal.
Nice upscale seafood joint. The tempura shrimp w/ Siracha and pecans is a weird combo that I never knew I would like. The catch of the day tacos and crab cakes were also very delicious. Service was great and server was polite.
