We went to Catch19 yesterday for lunch. Food was good but the decor is just so odd. They kept the majority of the weird art that Gotham hung. It just doesn’t FEEL like a seafood restaurant to me. It is heavy and tacky. The original Catch was a better setting with the big windows and light walls.
Anyways. The food was good. We split a crab cake appetizer (best of the items we ordered but I would prefer the cake be crispy. Lots of crab), I got the seared tuna salad (very small amount of tuna) and husband got the “insane” lobster rolls. His comment was that the croissants overpower the lobster. We are lobster roll purists so take it with a grain of salt. I had a glass of wine and he had iced tea. Total after tip was $80 something. Not a cheap lunch and we weren’t blown away.
