CATCH SEAFOOD BAR & GRILL -Food CA (Near Paso Robles)

4 /5 Macy Y: This place was yummy. We made a reservation but it took long to get seated and orders going. However, the staff were trying their best to make sure we were comfortable by offering us water while we wait for our seats and offering us more bread as we waited for our mains. It is very loud inside but I think that’s just how lively the crowd is! The seafood pasta was very yummy. It was just a bit too salty. The scallops were delicious and veggies were so fresh.

5 /5 Norma LaFrance: We spoke to a local who suggested this place and we were so happy with the suggestion. We sat at the bar and were able to watch the chefs making our delicious food. I had never tried pan fried calamari and the chef gave me a generous sample. I was so impressed I will never have deep fried calamari again. We plan on coming back again the next time we visit Paso.

5 /5 Dana Ashmore: This was a joy, just what I wanted. We loved that the fish was a generous portion surrounded by perfectly cooked vegetables. So many restaurants skimp on the sides or don’t prepare them with care but these were perfectly executed and as delicious as the fish. The swordfish was amazingly tender and the sand dabs were served at that exact moment when they are done but not falling apart. Both were served in light sauce — one with Meyer lemon and capers and the other more of a white wine sauce — that let the fish shine. Get a reservation if you want to sit at the bar and watch them cook.

1 /5 SamG PV: I hate to write a negative review, specially a long one but if no one’s willing to share their experiences, we have a 5 star food and service reviews from everywhere which is not fair for people visiting Paso First of all the Waitress did not know which fish was farmed , wild , or previously frozen. Secondly the wine menu was very limited considering you are in Paso , offering Only 5 red selection by the glass which they were out of 2 of them already . As for food : the Fish was broiled with vegetables, absolutely had no taste . We asked for , olive oil which did not taste or smell like olive oil “ was either a blend or vegetable oil , lemon , salt and pepper so we can add a bid of tastes. . if you are looking for great fish experience, this is definitely not the place . We are foodie couple so we are constantly eating out and traveling. My wife did not like the glass of wine I ordered so I told the waitress , she got visibly upset and responded “ but you tasted it first before ordering “. This was not the response I was expecting, so I politely responded, yes I tasted it while she was in the restroom and i noticed she had not touched her glass and is still full and she clearly did not like it , I am ok but she is not , could we get something else perhaps . She kept responding again that but you tried it first , at this point a gentleman from behind counter notice our conversation and came over . we shared our experience and gave him my credit card , told him not looking for freebies but wanted to share our experience. he said no problem , I will take care of it , not knowing what that meant . A few minutes later a lady came by and literally threw our credit card with the charged slip on the table to sign , charging us fully for both glass of wines which one was visibly not touched .no explanation , no nothing . By this time I was starting to get pissed off so I asked another waiter , who was the lady that throw our credit card & copy of bill at our tables, he responded “ oh she is the owner “. So our waitress and gentleman we talked to were not around , so I asked the waiter could we have a word with the owner or the gentleman we talked already . At this time the “ owner lady “ came by and started cursing at us in Spanish only . Not a word in English , no apology , no conversation as to how was your experience? not sure why she reacted like that . I know a bid Spanish so I could tell she was not happy with us for whatever reason we complained about the wine , even though we had no interaction with her whatsoever and had paid for everything fully . . We signed our slip , paid and left but what a horrible experience. What a terrible attitude from the owner . Only thing we can think is the waitress must of have been a daughter or family member that had told her our experience which obviously she did not like . Would not go back under any circumstances . With many absolutely wonderful restaurants in Paso. Try the fish and you will say oh he was right .

5 /5 Linda Farris: This is an amazing restaurant, one of our favorites in Paso Robles. They have everything from steaks, but they are known for their fresh seafood. My husband and I always start with a Calamari steak, It is so tender. Then we share a a meal. Tonight Chico served us Sandras and Shrimp Sampi, amazing!!! We always like to sit up at the counter where you can watch the chefs cook. Chico will put anything together that you would like.
