    Their service is excellent, A+ for them all, their food is great, the restaurant in general is a beautiful place. This was my second time there and I’m planning my next visit. The only thing I would like to change is that the visitors speak too loud, and they don’t care about others.

    The food was cold and the meat was tough. The chicken was inedible. No quality control whatsoever. Service was spotty. We have been to Catula several times. We will not go back.

    Two private parties took all the space and I had to eat very early as they had no space after 5:45 PM. Very noisy and the only table available was by the back door and there were a lot of people in line passing by our table and standing by our table which was not a good experience. The food was good and our server was excellent but I will not sit at those tables again. If they’re the only ones available, I would not stay and go elsewhere.

    we had a fabulous time the only thing i would recommend is that they coordinate when they have a birthday event. I noted on the reservation and called in to remind that it will be a borthday and even asked the hostess and she advised they dont do anything different. during our dinner I heard happy birthday being sung by the staff twice in other tables. the food was great though.

    There were five of us so we got to taste several dishes. The snapper, churrasco, masitas risotto and duck were the entrees. Appetizers were the sausages and the codfish croquetas. Desserts of Nutella crepe and guava pudding. Every single item, from the amazing, warm rolls with perfect garlic butter to the dessert were a culinary delight. The snapper was especially outstanding. The portions are quite large. Service was professional, courteous and worthy of a fine restaurant. Made for a lovely evening Totally recommend

    We ordered mashed potatoes with our order and what the waiter brought out was Teo pieces of boiled potatoes. We asked where are the mashed potatoes and he said the chef said they ran out. The waiter could have come out and informed us and asked if we wanted another side since they were available. At that point, we just let it go because he seem to be hurried. With the exception of the potatoes, the food overall was good, but will not go back for a while.

    Dear Misty, Please accept our sincerest thanks for your recent visit to our restaurant and for sharing your feedback. We extend our sincerest apologies for the disappointment you experienced during your recent visit to our restaurant. We are very sorry the mashed potatoes you ordered were not available. We should have promptly communicated the shortage and offered an alternative. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience and hope you'll consider giving us another chance to provide you with a flawless dining experience. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to the opportunity to serve you better in the future. Warm regards, Adie Jones Café Catula Restaurant

    My husband and I had dinner here for Miami Spice month and we were very happy with all aspects. The food was delicious, generously portioned, and beautifully served. The restaurant is lovely with lots of interest art on display. I had the corvina with lobster sauce and my husband had the churrasco steak. Both were wonderful. We will definitely return to this restaurant!

    We have been here many times for dinner and the food keeps us coming back. They offer a large menu and everything has been amazing. Have had the Risotto's, fish, meats and pasta and can't say which is my favorite as they are all delicious. They also have a full bar and the Martini's are amazing. They still give you a full size Martini not like other restaurants that have glasses which are about half a Martini. You definitely will not be disappointed.

    Cafe Catula never disappoints and last night was no exception! We were quite surprised how extremely busy they were and yet the chef(s) produced some of the finest cuisine. Two in our party had Miami Spice and the portions were generous and delicious. The remainder of us ordered off the menu and raved about the dishes everyone exclaiming that theirs was the best. The service was impeccable and attentive. We will certainly return! Highly recommended!!!

    We did the Miami Spice menu. The food & value were very good. We were a party of 6 and could not talk amongst us because of the terrible high noise level. An easy fix with soundproof panels in the ceiling. Will not return for dinner but maybe try it at lunch time.

    Café Catula has been our first Miami Spice restaurant each year bc we love it so much. Carlos, our waiter, has always been our server bc he always treats you like family. Our Branzino main dish was to die for. The Expresso Martinis were the bomb and the tres guayaba dessert is the best to finish off the night!!
