The place seemed okay until we opened the menu. The tiny selection paired with the high price (in perspective to what you get) made for a difficult choice. Also, you can't substitute sides thus tacking on another 3-4 bucks. The food was great unless taste appeals to you. They also charged us for our OWN cake! These factors combined with a few other things such as horrible traffic and the valet slamming my car into the wall (in all fairness, which is not the fault of the restaurant in any way) made for an evening that I surely will not forget. All in all, I’d rather hit Taco Bell and the rest of the party agreed.
The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere, though it was a bit noisy. I ordered the sashimi tuna, but it was extremely salty—so much so that it was the only flavor I could really taste. My date had the cod, or some other white fish with vegetables on top, and it was so bland that I would have preferred a fish sandwich from McDonald's; at least that would be tasty and affordable. Sea Catch was ridiculously overpriced. I don't mind spending over $60 for a fantastic meal, but in this case, I was left very disappointed and won't be returning. In short, the high prices and low-quality food just don't add up.
The food was outstanding. While the bar prices were a bit on the high side, the meals offered were quite reasonably priced. Our dinner for two, which included raw oysters, soup, a seafood entree, dessert, and wine, came to around $140 before tip. The service was attentive, and the restaurant's ambiance was stunning. I will certainly be coming back.
