After my first meal at Catch, which was outstanding, I decided to give it another try to determine whether it was a one-off or whether the staff and cooking was consistent. We arrived early as the traffic wasn't bad and they seated us immediately. The restaurant is not extravagantly decorated and the tables are not covered with white linen, but it possesses warm indirect lighting and is obviously incredibly clean. A bit unassuming as it is in a small strip mall, but please do not be turned off by this James Beard winner of a chef. We were warmly and immediately greeted by Amy who was our server the first time. She got our drink order and brought them to the table (highly recommend the smoke infused rye old fashioned). Our order was taken and the food was divine. Amy recommended the filet mignon as it was a special and not served frequently at this restaurant (as their focus is incredibly delicious seafood). My husband thought it was one of the best meals he has ever had, I had the shrimp and cheddar grits and it was winner. Please try this restaurant if you are ever in Wilmington NC...you will not be disappointed.

Best of Wilmington! Don’t let the modest location in a strip mall put you off. Ample parking, lovely staff and the food was absolutely extraordinary! Ordered the fresh ahi tuna and crab cakes - both beautifully presented . Definitely will go back .

There was no WOW moment in our evening, with the exception of the Firecracker Shrimp! The ambiance was OK, and a bit noisy. The menu was limited, and lacking my favorite, scallops. My favorite spirit, Bombay Saphire was unavailable. Service provided (Amy) was cordial, and informative, but we were over an hour into the evening before our meal arrived. All in all, we would not recommend to our friends and neighbors! Good luck!
