April 19, 2025: Last night we had reservations at the first place we visited for dinner 5 years ago when we still lived in Lumberton! A James Beard nominated chef and much more. After we moved here 3 years ago we went back and it became our go to restaurant for special occasions! Celebrating our anniversary we returned here for a great dinner starting with fancy drinks followed by Octopus Mofongo and Oysters on the half shell. My wife had Soft shell Crab and I had Grouper! Dessert was Butter Milk Pie made by the owners daughter! The creativity of the Chefs and the quality of the entrees is always top notch and complemented by the staff. Our serverJen and other servers team up to make sure the evening was a great success! Prior visit: Dinner at Catch last night started with a complimentary champagne with blueberries followed by a Manhattan for me and Vodka Martini for my husband followed by a dozen oysters from 3 different locations, Grouper special for me and Tuna for my husband then a creme brulee to share! Our server Robert was great and this restaurant is our favorite go to place for special events. The quality of the food and ambiance of this restaurant is not matched in Wilmington. Prior experiences: Went to "Catch" after 4 years. One of the first places we visited when living in Lumberton and on a vacation weekend. James Beard Award winner and worth the visit! Started with Smokey Old Fashion and Martini with Blue Cheese Olives and 2 different oysters! My wife had ribs and shrimp with sweet potato brulee and collards and I had Drunkin Noodles with egg plant, Bok Choy and lobster.
Impressed! Very impressed. We ate here last night with a party of 8 of us. The menu is not extensive, offering just a selection of several seafood dishes and a choice of ribs wirh fried shrimp. There were also a few apps and 3 salads. We pretty much ordered everything. There was not a single miss among the variety of dishes. Every single bite of every dish was nothing short of perfection. The fried seafood was lightly battered with a balance of salt and spice. Even the ribs were spot on. Catch has to be on your list if you are in the area or make the drive just for this experience. It's that good!
Came from out of town on the suggestions of a friend. I was amazed and excited to hear the specials includes grilled mofongo octopus and ahi tuna with wasabi mashed potatoes. The drink was the day was a watermelon crush with local tequila. It was the best drink I’ve had in a very long time! The food, drinks were outstanding!! The service was very kind and knowledgeable. The food was so darn good!!! I’ll definitely be back.
We want to thank the Chef and his Wife and all the support staff for our outstanding service and delicious food. Richard was our waiter, and He took great care of us. We will definitely return with more family and friends.
Excellent food and top notch service is what you look for, right? This place has the best caesar salad that I have had in ages and the crab cakes and shrimp and grits were divine.
Had dinner last night and it was phenomenal. The food was cooked to perfection and the service from Naya and Robert is so good. I highly suggest this restaurant! Rodney's drinks are amazing! Will be returning. They have fresh specials to select from as well.
This hidden jewel was recommended to us by a local merchant. We were delightfully impressed by the cuisine. Don’t let the store front fool you. Behind their doors is an award winning chef and her perfectly balanced pastry chef of a daughter. This place is a must visit!!
