I had an amazing experience at Catch 45 in Delaware! The pepper kala was perfectly spicy, the goat soup was rich and flavorful, and the fufu was just like home. The ambience was so welcoming—it felt like being back in Liberia. Highly recommend to everyone, especially the Liberian community, to come and enjoy the taste of home. You won’t be disappointed!

I highly recommend this restaurant! We ordered beef patties, meat kabob, and Pepper Kala as appetizers, followed by Cassava leaves and goat soup with fufu as our main courses. Everything was packed with flavor and served in generous portions. I plan to return soon to try more of the menu.
You will not be disappointed!

I visited Catch 45 for the first time and I had such an excellent experience that I will definitely be coming back. The guy that attended to me was so pleasant and welcoming, the restaurant is aesthetically pleasing with aftobeats playing on the Tv. Very clean and neat too. I should have gotten the name of the guy cos he went above and beyond. He explained the menu to me and even let me taste the beef pattie (meat pie) before I purchased. He offered me juice to go with my pattie, I felt like a princess with the 5star customer service. I came for just Jollof rice and chicken but I ended up buying the goat stew and dry rice as well. You have definitely earned a customer with this impeccable service ? . The jollof and chicken for $50 was a good portion too as you can see from the picture. I enjoyed the food and very happy I found you guys as you’re truly a catch ?.

I was in the mood for some Egusi soup, and it was not it, it was very dry, I don’t think it was fresh, and it had a strong odor to it, wasn’t happy:(
No thanks

Food was good. But they do not give you a lot of options. You can’t substitute anything. I wanted the goat meat and chuck rice and my husband wanted the jollof rice and goat meat the chef said we couldn’t and we had to get what was already on the menu. I think the menu need to be more accommodating. Customers should be able to get what they want even if you have to do a little upcharge.
First time trying West African food. Certainly no expert, but the two dishes we tried were delicious. It's not your typical Americanized style international cuisine -- you'll have to pick through bones -- but I assume that's the authentic style, so no points off there.
Did I mention it was delicious!?! And the portions were generous.
The menu really needs a "sampler", though. Would have liked to try many textures/flavors, then enjoy 'longing for my next visit' to try a full portion of my favorite.
Atmosphere is decent, but not a fan of the TVs showing full-length movies.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at catch45, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a perfect blend of modern elegance and cozy charm. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, providing top-notch service without being intrusive. Jess the waiter is amazing.
The menu offered a delightful variety of dishes, each thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. I started with the fishballs, which was a perfect balance of flavors and textures.

Dis take out and dinned in, ordered the fufu with cassava leaves. Had a mixture of chicken,fish, and something else. It was delicious the first time, take out not so much. Ordered the goat soup was very flavorful and spicy. Lastly Jollof and rice with lamb was well seasoned very good both times. The second time also ordered chicken with jollof and i was very upset. I received 4 wing dings. Now come on now… i could’ve received regular size chicken wings. The time takes waaayyy to long, atmosphere doesn’t have a hint of African.

I ordered dry rice and fish and also cassava leaf. I drove an hour to get the food. When I got home, the food was burned and so I called and they were very disrespectful to me. The first person who got on the phone had no idea what was going on. The next person tried to rectify the issue but then I found out he was the cook when a third rude person got on the phone. The third person hung up on me when I asked to either have unburned food or my money back. The portion was also very small. Not worth half the money at all. I won’t be spending any money not even a penny here ever again! Poor service all around.

Food was freaking amazing and tasted so fresh . There was a little wait for my food but when I tell you it was worth it because of the freshness and the flavor . Definitely a must try if you want some authentic African food in Delaware . The young lady who takes your order is sweet too. Shout out to her and thanks Girlie for being so pleasant as I waited for my food?
I had Pepper Kala and Egusi soup.
