we held my daughter's wedding here. just a short ceremony followed by appetizers and dinner for 60.Even tho we met with management several times, when we got there no one present knew anything about our event. Our guest stood around while my husband and I did all the set up. only 2 people were assigned to serve and do drink orders. some of our guests were never served appetizers. even tho it was open bar, guests were getting up and paying for their own drinks because no one came around to them. wedding cake was amateurly chopped up. no coffee was served or offered. horribly embarrassing experience. do not trust these people with your special event.

The company is run by morons! My grandmother passed away and we wanted a nice restaurant to take about 30 people to after the funeral. We called a couple days in advance to let them know we would be in on Tuesday around 1pm. The manager offered us a set menu and sent it by email. My sister told them we didn't want the set menu that we would rather order off the menu. The day of the funeral we called to confirm and the manager was terribly rude and said they would only take our party if we ordered off this set menu. Ridiculous, it's the day of my grandmothers funeral and they refused to take our party....what the hell? They would have made so much more money if we had ordered off the menu anyway. Not to mention the fact that hours before we were supposed to eat there we suddenly had no where to go with a party of 30. Who does that? I will never ever go to this restaurant due to, not the bad service but the absolute lack of it...my entire family was completely offended and i bet money the funeral home will never recommend this restaurant ever again. Way to refuse service to a grieving family...that was awesome!! Thank you Red Lobster for accommodating us so quickly!

My family and I have been loyal to CATCHES with both the old and new Owner(s)/Management.
We have always had great food and lots of it, wonderful service and the ambiance inside or out on the patio has always been great!
I don't know what criteria the negative commentors used, but in all the many times I have been there, NOT ONCE did I ever have anything but the most pleasant of dining experiences!
I have eaten in restaurants from Alaska, to Vancouver, West Coast to East and North to South and CATCHES has NEVER been a disappointment!!!

Valentines Day - Manager Gary made us feel that we were really valued customers. We ate in the bar area and service was excellent. Food, good with goodly portions. Would recommend anyone who was familiar with the "old" Catches to give the new one a try. Cocktails actually had enough liquor in them that you could taste it !!!

Hey, guys. Give this place a break. It's now under a new owner and things have REALLY changed. New menu and prices are very reasonable. Just re-opened earlier this month (December, 2008) from what I understand. Don't know much about the old place, but we enjoyed our group of 4 and everyone liked the food and service. Give it another shot. Love the openness of the inside.

We got the family together for Mother’s Day at Catches Waterfront Grille in Port Richey. What an AWFUL experience! Steer clear of this place. The food is lousy, the service is lousy, the management is lousy, the location is lousy, and the prices are lousy. Catches Waterfront Grille is a dreadful place to hold a family gathering, unless you want it ruined.

A major disappointment. Small portions, veggies tasted like they came from a freezer, fish did not taste fresh. More like a fast-food chain than a seafood restaurant.
