The food is 10/10- fresh and delicious! Huge deal when ordering seafood, the chefs know what they're doing back there for sure. Super cute place, the best patio for a sunny afternoon!

Rodolfo R.

I've walked past Catch 818 so many times while doing my evening steps along Ventura Boulevard. For the longest time, I actually thought it was a Thai restaurant because of the name. The space always looked roomy and relaxed, never overly packed, which made me curious. I finally told a friend we should try it, and that's when I found out it's actually a Mexican restaurant which is perfectly fine because I love Mexican food. We were seated quickly. There were about five couples in the restaurant including us, so it wasn't busy at all. The place itself is spacious with plenty of tables, which I appreciated. I ordered a chicken quesadilla but received a steak quesadilla instead. Honestly, I had been considering steak anyway, so I didn't make a big deal out of it. The portion was generous with a good amount of steak inside. Overall, I'd rate it about a 7 out of 10. It wasn't bad at all -- definitely more than average -- but it didn't quite stand out flavor-wise the way I expected from a sit-down restaurant. My friend ordered the fish tacos, and the fish portion was impressively large. Very meaty, very generous. Taste-wise, though, we found ourselves adding more avocado, tomatoes, onions, and sour cream to boost the flavor. It was good, but it needed those extras to really come alive. We also ordered horchata with lemonade and cucumber, which was refreshing and enjoyable. The server had a fantastic personality: warm, friendly, and welcoming. That said, I would have appreciated more check-ins. I tend to drink a lot of water, and we had to call her over for refills. At one point another customer was ringing the bell to pay, and she wasn't around for a few minutes. Not a major issue, just something that could elevate the experience with a bit more attentiveness. One thing that stood out was the timing of the food. Since it wasn't busy, I expected a quicker turnaround. It wasn't excessively long, but slightly slower than anticipated for a mostly empty dining room. Overall, I'd rate Catch 818 around 3.5 out of 5. The portions are generous, the space is comfortable, and the service is friendly. With a little improvement in flavor depth and attentiveness, it could easily move up a notch. It's a solid neighborhood spot with potential.

My sister and I come often here because we absolutely love the food and the micheladas they're easily our favorites and very convenient because we live near by However, the service consistently is horrible every time we come we are rarely checked on for drink refills or to see how we're doing. During our visit today with a friend, the staff dropped off her menu and water but never returned to take her order. Instead, they focused on cleaning around us and didn't look in our direction so we can get their attention until the very end when the kitchen was closed. Mind you every time we come there's no more than two or three tables present.

Located on Ventura Blvd in Sherman Oaks. This is their 2nd location. Great service. Nice clean environment and a nice ambiance with music playing in the background . I came for a drink and oysters. I got the prepared oysters (shrimp and fish ceviche on top of raw oysters). It was delicious. The server suggested the regular oysters (will try next time). I didn't order any other entrees but I look forward to coming back and trying other menu options.

A false review against the waitress
David V.

I been coming over to this establishment for the past 2 months, and the service has been proper with professionalism. "Natasha G"made a poor review by falsifying information. I was a customer the evening she was there, the waitress was not clocked in and she wasn't taking nobody to the back.

Pescado zarandeado
Mayra M.

Amazing! The food is so good, i was having a hard time finding a close marisco spot around north Hollywood but this is it. Super legit! Had the pescado zarandeado, fish chicharrones and shrimp cocktail. Very satisfying meal and my complainy ass husband had no complaints, they also got the beer buckets for happy hour at certain times, a plus!

Octopus Taco

If you love Mariscos this place has quality food and very chill environment Ventura side

THE BEST prepped oysters EVER!!
Sam Z.

THERE'S ONLY ONE place you need to consider for your mariscos/fresh seafood cravings. The service is always great. The hostess and waitresses are attentive and super helpful. Great selection of food items for the pickiest of eaters. Awesome selection of beer and drinks. The setting is very chill. Open and airy right on Ventura blvd w/ a view of the street life. Indoor and outdoor seating options available.

Octopus Taco, avocado, sesame seeds, grilled onions, cilantro sauce , chipotle sauce, lime juice, served in a flour tortilla.
Carlos J.

The octopus tacos were amazing. I never tried octopus tacos at all until I called one day and decided to try them. People kept telling me about them so I had to see what the hype was all about. Presentation was nice but the flavors is what really made me say, Wow Delicious ! Definitely ordering them again. Thanks Catch 818 !

Saturday, October 3rd…read more We arrived right on time and were promptly seated with our friends at a 4 top. The place was bustling and loud. Our waiter came over and took our drink order, Hendricks martini for wifeypie and a Grey Goose martini for moi. Our friends abstained. Our waiter brought our drinks and asked if we wanted to order. I almost laughed. On the inside I was like "Really? You just brought us two martinis, we have been at the table for maybe five minutes and you want to know if we are ready to order?" Actually, I did laugh and declined the offer. We sat for a few minutes catching up with our friends. All the while the maître d' and another gentleman were kibitzing with the person occupying a booth directly behind one of our friends. They kept coming and going, bumping into my friend's chair and talking loudly. My friend kept turning around every time they bumped into him. They would apologize and then continue with the same shit. This went on for over twenty minutes and was quite annoying. We all ordered. Wifeypie had the salmon, I had the deconstructed short rib Wellington. Our friends split the lamb chops, ordered medium, substituting french fries for the mashed potatoes. We all had salads to start. We gabbed, enjoyed our salads and dinner arrived. Wifeypie's salmon looked dry and overcooked. My short rib Wellington was described on the menu as "cabernet-braised short rib, mushrooms, puff pastry, horseradish cream." Our friend's lamb chops were clearly not medium from my vantage point and in the middle of the plate sat a big pile of mashed potatoes. We requested that the server please bring the french fries, as ordered. Wifeypie's salmon was overcooked, but she said it was ok. My Wellington was sitting in a sauce that tasted heavily of truffle oil and nothing like the dish was described. I had to ask for a steak knife as the meat was not butter tender, as a short rib should be. There was one lamb chop on my friend's plate that was almost medium, the rest were well done. The french fries showed up 15 minutes after the entrees, after we had made two requests. I ate about half my dish, it was disappointing. Wifeypie had about half of hers and our friends had two of the four chops on the plate. They did like the french fries however, when they finally arrived! Our waiter did not check on the table until we had stopped eating. At that point my friend pointed out that the chops were overcooked and the waiter actually picked up one of the chops to look at it! "Really????" I have to give credit at least on one point, they did remove the lamb chops from the bill. He asked if we wanted dessert and we all declined. We had indicated on the reservation that it was one of our birthdays. That was ignored. You be the judge. Humbly submitted, Moi

Lovely spot for Mexican food with fun vibes!…read more I came for Sunday brunch/lunch with some friends. I made a reservation through Yelp a couple days beforehand and there was plenty of availability. The restaurant is located right off Ventura Blvd and has an attached parking garage in the basement which can be accessed via the parking lot behind the restaurant. There were plenty of spots available Sunday afternoon when I came. It's a bit hidden, but there is an elevator from the garage to the top level where the restaurant is located as well. We had two babies in strollers with us, so I requested a table with plenty of space nearby for the strollers. They seated us outside on their covered patio, and indeed, we had plenty of space. I peeked inside and there's also a nice lounge area with a beautiful flower wall as well as a proper dining area. When we arrived, there was a live DJ spinning tunes. I assume he's there during brunch hours, as he left around 3 pm when brunch ended. I started with a frozen lime margarita ($12). It was okay; it felt like it was only half frozen as the ice wasn't blended that well. For my main, I got the famous Anejo carne asada and shrimp plate for $40. Yes it was pricy, but the portion size was also huge! I was starving and somehow managed to finish the plate, but it'd be a great dish to share for two people with small appetites. I really enjoyed it as well. I asked for the steak to be cooked rare, and they didn't overcook it. Each bite was super tender and flavorful and paired well with the rice. Everyone else also enjoyed their dish. One friend got the wet chicken burrito for $15 and it was massive! Another got the veggie fajitas with steak added and really enjoyed her dish as well. Solid food all around. I would love to come back on a weekday and try their happy hour! Sipping on $5 margaritas and $6 sangrias sounds like my idea of a great time!

5 stars. Took my boyfriend here for his birthday and the night couldn't have gone better…read more We started with the meatball appetizer, then the caprese salad, the crab cake, and the branzino with almond crust for the main. Every single plate was on point. The branzino was the standout -- crispy almond crust, fish cooked perfectly, not a dry bite on the plate. The crab cake was all crab, no filler, and the caprese was fresh and simple the way it should be. The real star of the night was Scott, the bartender/owner. He took care of us from the second we sat down, recommended everything we ate, and went out of his way to make Edward's birthday feel special. You can tell he actually cares about the people in his room, not just turning tables. That kind of hospitality is rare. And the drinks -- a dirty martini, a Manhattan, and hands down the best whiskey sour I've ever tasted in my life. The Rendition Room is a whole experience: hidden speakeasy, great food, great drinks, and Scott running the show. If you're celebrating something, this is where you go.

We've been coming to The Rendition Room for years, whether for work events or date nights, and…read morebecoming members nearly three years ago was one of the easiest decisions we've made. It's become so much more than just one of our favorite bars and every visit reminds us why we keep coming back. The biggest reason, though, is the people. Hospitality is something that's hard to fake, and the team here does it effortlessly. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted like an old friend. Over the years, the staff has created an environment that feels welcoming, comfortable, and genuinely personal, and that's something that's become increasingly rare. Matt, Sabrina, and the entire team are all such gems. Scott also deserves special recognition. He's a huge part of what makes The Rendition Room such a special place. Whether he's introducing a new cocktail, sharing the story behind a spirit, or simply taking the time to check in, his passion and care for every guest shine through. It's people like Scott who transform a great bar into a place you truly feel connected to. On our most recent visit, we tried the new Decade & Debauchery cocktail, celebrating The Rendition Room's 10 year anniversary, and it's phenomenal. Balanced, and beautifully executed. In a city full of great bars, they have managed to create something much harder to find, a sense of community. After all these years, it still feels just as special as the first time we walked in.

There's music that's lively without being overbearing, and the staff is uniformly friendly. But... You have to order at the bar and, though they have runners to bring your food, you do have to hunt them down for anything after the delivery (extra ketchup, etc). While this isn't my favorite system at my age, to be fair, whatever the owners are saving on staff is reflected in the prices, which are absolutely below most places in the area for food that is good-quality and drinks that are generously poured. So yes, my wife's Espresso Martini was served in a deep-bellied Belgium beer glass, and my whiskey neat was a hefty pour. Yay!! For food, I ordered the Smash Burger, which is served with melted American, grilled onions and the house version of Russian dressing (as well as pickles, which I deleted). The burgers had a nice, smashed crust while remaining juicy, the cheese was properly melted, and the grilled onions had a terrific caramelized sweetness, while the house sauce was very well-balanced: ketchupy and creamy without being too mayonnaise-heavy. A very good smasher. My wife ordered the Big Texan Burger because she wanted cheddar and frizzled onions and BBQ sauce, though she deleted the bacon and pork belly that are normally included. This, too, was a very good burger: cooked to a proper and pleasing medium-rare and well-seasoned, with a good, fresh flavor to the beef. The onion rings were less successful, which are of the beer batter type, but seemed to be a commercial, frozen product. The coating was browned but not crisp, and the flavor was relatively nondescript. We didn't really eat them, and wouldn't order them again. And so, to me, The Tipsy Cow is a bit of a mixed bag: reasonably priced decent food and reasonably priced, generously-poured drinks -- but in a mostly self-serve environment that incrementally loses its appeal in relation to your age and your dining circumstances. Certainly worth a try, but you've gotta be in the right mood.
