About Catalina Kitchen and Bar

Based on six reviews, Catalina Kitchen and Bar is a cool looking restaurant with an airy and open feel. The service is often highlighted as friendly and knowledgeable, with servers like Alexis, Brooke, and Natalia receiving praise for being attentive and personable. The gluten free options are appreciated. Drinks like the Banana Split Colada, Rioja red wine, and Barrel aged manhattan are popular. Appetizers including meatballs and burrata are rated highly, described as the best in Charlotte. For entrees, the mushroom pasta with spicy Italian sausage, short rib pasta, and rigatoni with added sausage are recommended. The Orange Glazed Northern Atlantic Salmon is good with a little heat from veggies or chili flakes. The Beet salad, lobster shrimp sandwich, and blackened chicken wrap were also enjoyed. The pasta is made in house and portions are generous, often enough for another meal. However, some reviews note inconsistencies. The Parmesan Fries and Creme Brulee were not served hot enough. The menu is described as limited, and some dishes like the steak frites arrived overcooked and chewy. The chicken parmesan was OK but the sauce was overly spicy. While many guests would return, one long-time visitor felt the quality had changed, finding the food average. Overall, it is a place where the presentation saves the meal, and many guests highly recommend it for the excellent food and service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Catalina Kitchen + Bar in Charlotte delivered an incredible happy hour tonight. The specials did not disappoint. The crispy Brussels sprouts were a standout with a huge serving and layers of flavor that kept getting better with every bite. The giant heap of Parmesan fries was exactly that… a mountain of hot bistro fries with rich parmesan and truffle aioli. Easily enough for the table.

The roasted beets came in a smaller, more delicate portion...read full review

All was beyond expectations, from the service to the dessert.

Run, do not walk to Catalina. In the 9 months since opening, I have taken 5 or 6 different groups of people - and each time, they fall in love with the ambience, food, cocktails and welcoming staff. The Tuna Poke Bowl is probably may favorite, but it truly changes with each new visit. I promise it will quickly become one of your go-to spots!
