    Don't just expect great seafood here (although the seafood is very good). The steak was bomb as well. Fantastic service and keep a look out for their groupon!

    We both shared the calamari misto and then had the striped bass. Excellent on both accounts. Menu is more limited than pre-COVID but still a good mix of items. Glad to have them reopened!

    I needed a hangover burger and Catch was the first place I happened upon. Small in appearance yet packed with the perfect burger flavour. Yum. Great battered onion rings, too.

    Get the Tempura Shrimp Sushi Roll with smoked salmon, avocado, wasabi, soy, sesame oil,.....perfectly balanced (and practically a meal in itself)

    Very pleasantly surprised with the miso cod. If you're a cioppino fanatic, the seafood stew is the way to go. Make sure to get the calamari as an appetizer!

    The food was good but we thought it was very expensive, definitely more than the $$ the suggests: $47 for a main and a beer, after all the additions. It was good, but that seemed steep to me.

    Salmon was cooked to perfection, as expected. A little pricy, but worth it.

    As a vegetarian I ordered the polenta with spinach, mushroom and feta. I found it to be too buttery for my taste, but I'll admit that I tend to like bland food. My friend really enjoyed his salmon.

    Decent, but uninspired food. It would have been great to find a place like this in a small town somewhere, but it's not up to SF standards.
