If you enjoy seafood, this is your restaurant ! Had the special- Red Snapper with asparagus and house salad. It was quite honestly one of the best seafood dinners I've had in the Chicago area. read more

Alright spot for dinner. Went for my moms birthday and it was cool, nothing special about the spot though compared to other nice seafood restaurants. Food wasn't that special and the seabass was a bit of a disappointment (again compared to other good seafood restaurants). I'd say for Naperville its the best you're probably going to get but if you want real good seafood just go to Chicago and get Eddie V's or Shaws or something similar. read more

They always say don't order steak at a seafood restaurant. They were wrong. I had the twin 6 oz filet mignon that was cooked perfectly (I prefer medium well). This was accompanied by fresh roasted garlic which you can crush in ton your mashed potatoes and creamer spinach. Definitely recommend going in with a reservation. FYI: we ordered off of the halal menu. Unlike before, you do not need to call ahead for the halal menu unless you have a very large group. read more

Catch 35 Naperville - Twin filet mignon - Seafood Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

It's Sunday night and you're in the suburbs with a growling stomach. Catch 35 would be your go-to place especially if you are in search of good food while on a budget. Twice, I came for their happy hour specials and went home carrying my stomach while doing minimal monetary damage. What have I tried and will repeat? The crab bisque is perfect for the cold weather. It's hearty, creamy, and filled with large bits of crab meat. I would always order the bowl as oppose to the cup. Do the simple math and you will realize the half-price specials make the bowl a perfect deal. Also, be sure to ask for the house bread for dipping! The tuna tartare is comes with an abundance of raw tuna and avocado on top of a crispy tortilla chip. If you want to try more items, be sure to share this one. The beef tenderloin sliders are also perfect for sharing. One plate comes with three sliders stacked with juicy, medium-rare, and sliced beef tenderloin. Some other items that I have also tried are the fish and chips, calamari, and crab cake. Great portions and flavors! I would suggest going with a few hungry hippos to wipe every plate clean. Otherwise, taking leftovers to go would also make a good lunch for Monday! read more

We had a nice Easter dinner here but found the food portions were tiny, especially when considering the cost. Most of the main dishes were delicious but the Yellowfin Tuna Steak was cold in the middle. I would recommend the Calamari, Braised beef, Prince Edward Mussels, and Smoked Shrimp Pasta. They had no draft beers, only bottles. The Old-Fashioned was one of the worst tasting we've had. However, I will say our waitress was so lovely and accommodating. We likely wouldn't eat here again, but it was nice to try. Great location and close to multiple parking areas. read more

I went here with my family to check out the $24.95 prix fixe special, which includes choice of soup or salad, one of 6 entrees, and dessert. The deal sounds better than it actually is, since you only really end up saving a few bucks. Guess the allure of the deal did its job: it lured me in. The crab bisque could have been thicker. I got the 3 oz tenderloin entree (you got two of them). The meat was good, but the accompanying broccoli was a little undercooked, and the potatoes, though tasty, were slopped onto my plate. :o| The seasonal dessert - eggnog bread pudding - was definitely the highlight of the experience. I don't even like eggnog, but I am a sucker for bread pudding, and my, is that good stuff. read more

The star is for the customer service. It was great! The food was lacking. I got the crabcake (1). One for $19. It was just one and was half the flavor and 1/2 the double the price of Bonefish grill. The crabcake was not any better than the premade ones in the seafood dept. The fish and chips were just OK. It was Whiting not cod and it had zero flavor. Thin and flat. Very skimpy and not a pinch of salt. Super bland. I was afraid I had covid until I tasted the tartar sauce which made up for the lack of flavor! The fries were typical, and nothing special. Almost $50 for one crab cake and the unseasoned bland fish and chips. I was super underwhelmed. If you want to be treated great but have overpriced and tasteless food, go here. I wanted to try other things on the menu but this was a one time deal. read more

Catch 35 Naperville - Super bland whiting, not cod. $26. Tiny unflavored portions. - Seafood Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

Great location for a date night out where you can make an evening out of dinner and walking around the downtown area afterwards! Menu is a little off the beaten path with having an Asian flair with the traditional steak and seafood menu, which can be interesting as long as it's done well, which, from what I can tell from my first visit here, is the case. We had the Schezwan scallops for an appetizer; came with a spinach-stuffed potsticker - very good. Shrimp bisque and Shrimp gumbo (has a good kick) both very good. Steak medallions were medium rare but I has asked for medium, so they were a bit hard for me to eat since there is a difference in texture when you get more rare - that is why I have a 4-star rating. High-end steak places should have the art of cooking steak exactly right for how it's ordered. Lobster was good and great presentation. Recommend the orchard martini - the cinnamon sugar rim accented the drink perfectly - loved it! read more

We stepped in this restaurant had every covid measure. Temperature , taking our phone number down , and sanitizing. The service was efficient from the bar. I had a strawberry moscato margarita it was sweet and pink every girls dream drink : we started with scallops they were set tender and flavorful. We order crab bisque and it was delicious and fresh crab. For an entree lemon chicken was tender enough I didn't need a knife. The breading was light lemon and crispy We ordered dessert to go. Which was carrot cake and oatmeal cookie bread pudding I couldn't just not order it. Everything was 5 star id give this place 10 stars if I could. read more

Don't Panic!!! it's the Beets. (I will get to that part at the end of my review) We decided it was time for another visit to Catch 35, as it had been almost a year since our first time there. We were delighted to have Zac as our Server again, as we recall the excellent service we received from him on our first visit. We decided to skip the appetizers, though very tempting. We started with an Iceberg Wedge Salad and the Salt Roasted Beet Salad (highly recommend). Both were fantastic. For the main entrees, we selected the 6 oz. Filet Mignon with roasted red potatoes, creamed spinach and Roasted Garlic cloves. The filet was cooked to perfection with outstanding flavor and the sides were also delicious! The other entre selected was the Yellowfin Tuna Poké Bowl..... what an amazing combination... Edamame, Scallions, Carrots, Avocado, Radish, Seaweed, Soy and Chili Aioli. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. I can't wait to go back and have this same meal again as it was absolutely outstanding! Now.... for the "Beet story": Not to gross you out, but this is actually rather funny. So, the next day I was in a bit of a panic and seriously considered going to the ER. I decided to call a Doctor friend and explained to him the circumstances I had faced. I said I think I'm bleeding internally!! He asked if I had eaten any Beets?...I said OMG...THE BEETS! How did i not think about that. Regardless he saved me a very expensive trip to the ER and thankfully all is back to normal. Whew! read more

Do not order ribeye. The lowest quality steak I ever ate. Discussed for such high price. It was filled with fat and lacked flavor. Service on the other hand was good. read more

Catch 35 is one of my favorite seafood places in the Midwest. Of course Chicago is not necessarily known for seafood, you go to the coast for fresh and superb seafood but for a meat and potatoes kind of town, Catch 35 will really satisfy your seafood palate. Must try: Sriracha buffalo Shrimp (comes with 6 jumbo shrimp, get your own plate and don't share because it's really good!) Filet mignon Oscar style (perfect blend of surf and turf. The Bernaise sauce makes this one unforgettable) Make a reservation, they're usually pretty busy. Enjoy! read more

Catch 35 Naperville - Shrimp & Turf - Seafood Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

Catch 35 deserves 5 stars for staying open during our tyrant governor's total lockdown of all restaurants in the entire state! A group of 14 of us came here on 01/07/21 and Catch35 did not disappoint! The venue area where we sat is very open. It seemed like a room that I would be seated in if I were attending a business conference at a hotel. Not actually cozy; rather more of a place where professionals would go to conduct business. The service and food were very good. I'm thankful that they were able to accomodate our group. We enjoyed ourselves and I recommend this place. read more

Shrimp undercooked. Sent it back twice. The quality has gone down considerably in the last 4 years. Lost a touch of class by getting rid of the tablecloths read more

Truly a gem in Naperville! Food is great! service very friendly and quick. If you are looking for a good seafood place... I recommend!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry about the whole 'COVID thing' and the absolutely devastating effect it had/has on the restaurant industry. I get it. BUT..... c'mon ! A paper placemat menu? This place is a shadow of its former self. It used to be excellent! It's not the same. Not even close. Started with undercooked Pan Seared Szechwan Scallops appetizer. Four little scallops on a dinner plate full of garnish. Blah... Then the Crab Bisque. Watery soup with unidentifiable little scraps of what I guess is crab or shrimp meat. No taste. Skip this. Then Pan Roasted Chilean Seabass. It tasted good, but serving was small and common. Food is nothing special. Prices are WAY WAY too high. Service is better at Buffalo Wild Wings. So many better options in Naperville these days. I understand that times are tough but.... Sorry Catch 35, you lost me. read more

Food is often good, but bar stools your but sinks into the bottom and no place for a foot rest. I've been going here on and off for years, low start doesn't represent overall experience, but lately service has been far less than acceptable. Recently a female hostess whom is a bit more senior than the rest was just flat out rude after inquiring about a reservation. I politely told her "don't worry about it" and I've not been back since - about 3 months ago. read more

The most recent experience was a real surprise. This was my first To-go order since we typically would eat as a dine-in. It was a simple order of a cup of soup. I was told the pricing of both a cup and a bowl. I ordered the cup, after I had to clarify a few times and there were numerous times the staff member had to relay the information to another staff member. Right as the soup arrived, I was told they only have bowls of soup, and at a higher price. So, four people were suddenly unaware of that, and only at the time that the soup arrived? And, suddenly the price switched to a higher one? Additionally, the 'bowl' looked like the size of a 'cup'? That all came across as something similar to bait and switch. The manager (??) was willing to loose three customers over it. Amazing. By the way, we had brought a friend to the restaurant a few weeks ago, his first time, and he was unimpressed enough that he has no desire to return to Catch 35 Naperville again. With all that's going on in the economy today, it's imperative for businesses to have stellar service/food/merchandise, and don't play games. read more

Refused to cook my salmon done. Who's eating it? They suggested I take it home lol.

Located in downtown Naperville . Parking is super easy to find or they offer valet if you are feeling lazy to walk . Came here on Tuesday evening, Not my first time , I have been here couple times before in the summer. The food here is always fresh and flavorful. This time around I did the raw half dozen oysters, let me tell you it's tasteful ! Little chili sauce to go on top they had was superb. I had Hong Kong salmon for my main course which came with side broth as a sauce to drizzle over the salmon, mouth watering! The surf and turf scallops weren't like any scallops I have tried in Chicago . Man oh man we're they delicious. The food is a bit pricey but what can you expect for fine dining, it wasn't anything over the top. Our server Brandy was outstanding, and even remembered me from the summer. She was the one who recommended me to try Hong Kong Salmon . The atmosphere here is dim and very romantic . In the summer time come out and join the patio also dog friendly ! Will definitely be back again and again . read more

Keeping this one short. Ate here while visiting Naperville for work. To be honest I was not impressed. There is nothing that stands out it could be any restaurant in America. The menu focuses on seafood and is heavy on the lobster. The appetizers not memorable at all can even tell you what we had. The Caesar Salad that came with entree was ok the crouton was the only thing saving it. I had the Catch 35 Mix Grill which is suppose to be a sample of what they do best lobster, shrimp and fish. To be honest it was ok. The lobster was a nice portion the fish I can't even remember and the shrimp were these tiny things. This place might impress in Chicago but for a guy that lives on he Gulf coast it falls way short. Do give them props for their attentiveness wait staff was great wish their food was as good. read more

Although I've been here before, this time I didn't make it beyond the reservation! I called to make a reservation for 11 and was told I had to contact the event department via email. I then asked to make 2 reservations one table of 6 and the other for 5. Again I was told to email the events department. After 4 hours I decided to call again but was told the events department would reply in a day or two. When she did, I was told we would be out in private room for 30, limited to order from a banquet menu and require to pay a minimum of $5000. Who would do that? Are you serious... I'm not getting married, this was a simple dinner with friends. But I can't decide which part of that was more insulting for her to ask. So if management is this twisted I'm sure they allow their hosts, chefs and servers get away with poor quality too! No thank you, you will not get my service! read more

Simply delicious food with wonderful service from all staff! I've got pretty low expectations for restaurants post- Pandemic. I find myself pretty disappointed with the quality of food, service, and portion size. What a very pleasant surprise to have such a fabulous meal with friendly and knowledgeable (food allergies) staff. Every part of the meal - appetizers, salad, entree, dessert - was great! It was such a enjoyable place to celebrate my birthday. It was a nice touch that there was a GF bread option as we waited. It's comforting when food allergies are taken seriously, accommodations are made, and staff is well-informed. read more

Service was awesome, the food was really good. The seafood I felt was fresh and tasted good, and was cooked perfectly. The portion sizes were small though, and the prices were high. read more

Not one person came to our table for 15 minutes after seating. Our cocktails came after our appetizers--at least 50 minutes in to the night. Cocktail order was wrong two times. Steak was severely undercooked, they brought it back after all my dinner companions were done eating. And a different, much smaller piece. No water was refilled. Spent over 300 dollars. Really, really bad service. Sorry!! But true. read more

Went today for the "lobster bash". It was fantastic. Lobster Roll is kinda misleading. It is huge chunks of lobster and light mayo. The best I've had...ever. Great bisque, and the cheesecake was delicious. All in all a super special lunch. Server and staff were nice prompt and very on top of things. Thanks for the great lunch date! read more

I went here for my husband's birthday dinner. We arrived at 7:10pm, and we were promptly seated. The server and bus boy were super very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the food was not as good. The plating of the food was very sloppy looking and not very representative of fine dining. We ordered the crab cakes and Szechuan scallops. The Szechuan scallops were okay, but kind of a messy appearance. The crab cakes looked mushy and very unappetizing, but ended up being okay. I also ordered the new seafood chowder, and it was creamy like a clam chowder, but I wasn't a fan of the fish. It was a little fishy for me. For the main, we both ate the filet mignon with lobster tail. The lobster tail was butter poached, large, and sweet. It was very tender. The filet mignon wasn't bad either and had good flavor. My husband's lobster tail did not have any butter flavor despite ordering it butter poached. We ended up exchanging it for another one. The second lobster tail was way better. It was good. We opted not to get the free dessert since nothing seemed to be too appealing. The overall dinner was just average and not worth the prize tag that came with it. It took us almost 2 hours to finish our meal, and it was mostly due to just waiting for our food to arrive. read more

I've visited Catch 35 on several occasions at different times throughout the day. Service here is always very good. My food has consistently been really good and the Ambiance is very nice and relaxed during the day, and of course busier and chaotic in the evening. However, my servers still maintained contact and offered prompt service throughout my visits. I'd recommend Catch 35 at anytime of the day. read more

Catch 35 i have to apologize! I went to dinner last night, it was Saturday, the last night for the lobster bash. I was dining with my +1 and his uncle that I had never met before. We were seated at a table and we had a really nice server, Brandi. We had a fabulous meal! We started out with half dozen oysters and lobster bisque for an appetizer. To drink we had a pineapple moscow mule, dirty martini and margarita. We were indecisive on what we wanted to eat all the amazing lobster entree choices made it difficult. We went with 2 crab stuffed lobster tails and a lobster casserole. All three of us loved our dishes. We moved on to desert and ordered a creme brulee and a pecan pie and coffee. My +1 and I both enjoyed our meals and so did his uncle (or so I thought). We paid our bill and were on our way out when his uncle out of no where went up to the hostess on our way out and complained about i dont know what i had already walked out the door and my +1 went back to find his uncle complaining. I was so embarrassed I kept walking towards my car. I wanted to make sure you knew that our service wasnt bad, Its just one of those cases where some people cant be pleased, ever. Our server was wonderful, I hope you let her know. She was informative, friendly and attentive. Again, Im terribly sorry and she was great and the dining experience was enjoyable! read more

Just moved to Naperville from NY (bazaar, I know) and my parents came in for the weekend to visit. Made reservations at 715pm and we were seated promptly upon arrival. The restaurant was full, which is always a good sign. The waiter was enthusiastic and cheery, however the wait staff was much more focused on refilling our cocktails, as opposed to making sure our food was to our liking. My mothers salmon was undercooked and had to be sent back. It took about 10 minutes to get the attention of a server to let them know about this undercooked salmon. Once everyone had their dish in front of them - there were no left-overs. The food itself was all very good. What really bothered me was a family next to us literally changed their child's diaper at the table (even placing the dirty diaper on the table about 10 feet from our table). When we notified the "Manager", she informed us that this is really "out of her control". This seemed a little backwards, as one would think this would be entirely in her control as manager of this facility. Nonetheless, they removed a round of drinks from our tab due to the inconvenience. The diaper situation really left a sour taste in our mouth and we felt the manager could have handled the situation a bit better. Perhaps if the staff were a bit more attentive to what exactly was going on in the dining room, they could have notified the clueless family that changing diapers at the table in the middle of a dining room is really not appropriate at all. read more

Unfortunately, after spending $450 for 4 adults, 2 drinks a piece, we were not overly impressed. Service was top notch. Shrimp cocktail shrimp were small and not the quality I'd expect. Calamari lacked flavor and could have been browned more and for $18 the portion was small. The mixed grill entree salmon was cooked well as was the 1/2 lobster tail but again, the shrimp were smaller and the typical quality of the shrimp I buy in the grocery store. The cream sauce over the mixed grill seemed a little out of place. The sides are for sharing but are they really?? The featured drinks did appeal to me so I drank Chandon Champaign. I really wanted a bubbly mixed cocktail. Catch 35 seems to appeal more to the business meeting crowd. It's not for a romantic night out. read more

I feel like catch 35 went through a weird phase where they had an identity crisis. The menu was kinda icky. The place was too dark. The service was meh. We gave them another shot last night, and loved it. Great food. Great drinks. Excellent service. If you went there during the dark times I described, and were put off, I would urge you to try again. It was really nice and not especially fancy. read more

We set up reservations to celebrate my husband's promotion at 6:30 on a Saturday night. We made sure to let the restaurant know that it was a special occasion. We set aside time to find parking. However, valet was conveniently located in front of the restaurant so we arrived early at 6. We were seated right away at a corner booth, as requested. The decor was modern, but comfortable with dim lighting. I have never had a strawberry moscato margarita, so I ordered that, and my SO ordered the mule. Both drinks were delicious. You can tell they were made with good liquor and ingredients. Our waiter, Zack, asked if we wanted to put our LO's order in first, which we happily obliged. Zack was very personable and attentive. We got the shrimp poppers for our LO and ordered the pan seared Szechwan scallops for an app. The scallops were beautifully cooked and the chive potsticker was delicious. The plate was elevated by the amazing Szechwan sauce and the veggies. We loved this app. We also got the creme de la crab bisque. The bisque was tasty, but they could've put more crab and shrimp pieces. My SO ordered the surf and turf, cooked medium with butter-broiled lobster, instead of grilled. The lobster melted in my mouth. The steak was cooked perfectly. I ordered the mixed grill, which included grilled lobster, shrimp and salmon. I cleaned my plate. It was delicious. Typically, at this price point, sides are separate. Not here. I love how both dishes came with mash potatoes and a bed of grilled zucchini. I tasted the shrimp poppers that's came with fries. They were made of good-sized, quality shrimp and our LO enjoyed her meal. After our meals, Zack threw in a complimentary dessert to help celebrate my SO's promotion. It was a awesome gesture. He ordered the key lime pie, while I ordered the creme brûlée. Our LO ordered the berry gelato, which came with the kids meal. The pie and gelato were so good. But the creme brûlée was probably one of the best I have ever had! From the taste, to the textures and the caramelization of the sugar- it was perfect. I wish I can have some right now! It was a great way to end a fantastic meal. Our food was fabulous, service was quick and our waiter was awesome. On top of that, they support the military and provide a 10% military discount. We can't wait to come back! read more
