    Da Catch seems to be a franchise, I've seen them in other cities, but I couldn't find any info on that. There are a few locations in Rockford, IL, which is where I bumped into them. Fried fish is the specialty of the house. They also feature wings, tenders, and Philly cheese steaks, as well as bulk orders on the fish and shrimp, and a few other fried sides choices. I grabbed a catfish "meal" which comes with 3-4 fillets, french fries, and I got a side of fried okra for an additional charge. I'm gonna guess the fish is dusted with lemon pepper, seems to be a thing around these parts. The breading was seasoned corn meal and not overbearing. Fries were good, so was the okra. At under $10, it's a good value. The restaurants are "simple trappings," seems like they are more geared to drive thru/pick up service than dine in, but there are tables. There are multiple locations in Rockford.

    Crispy but super dry tenders. Need some dipping sauce or gallon of your favorite beverage to get through.

    I really don't know what to say about this place. The speed is horrible. We pulled up to the drive thru and were the only car. We ordered 8 tenders and 12 wings. Nothing else. It took 30 minutes. I wish I was exaggerating here ,but I'm not. The good was the breading was crispy, the tenders were big, but super dry. Tried them before when they had 2 locations in Beloit, but I know why I stopped supporting them. $24 to watch 5 other customers get their food who showed up after us was a slap in the face as well as the dry tenders. Overall I would recommend to pass on this place.

    I am a wings n fries gale!!! My daughter chose this place for wings and fries, because she vouches for them. I wasn't to happy. My wings weren't crispy at all, I don't know how they fried it or with what. My wings looked gray with seasoning thrown all over it. I like my seasoning cooked during the frying process not after. My food was too soft to be considered fried. Chewing results of rubbery texture. Seasoning was good tho. Fries too soft. My daughter wants me to give them one more chance- maybe. ‍

We DID ultimately receive a 50% discount on our plate, which I am acknowledging was gracious and I am thankful for. 6. I grew up eating fish, not only at home but in restaurants/bars. I am giving this restaurant a three star review however. We ordered the walleye fish. The two bites I was able to take, definitely tasted good. However, in both bites, I was picking out several bones. Upon inspecting, we found over another dozen bones in the walleye. Bones happen in fish sometimes, but this was an astronomical amount that made it impossible to enjoy the fish or even eat it comfortably. We quietly just told the bartender about the bones and just asked if we could have a portion of the fish discounted because we ate everything else. Which tasted great. We absolutely were willing to pay for everyone else, didn't want a discount on the entire bill. Just a little something for the fish. She talked to her manager and then the manager came out. Now IF the manager had just apologized and offered a discount, this would've been a 4.5/5 review. However, the manager proceeded to give us a lecture about walleye. She insinuated that we never ate walleye before; she said people who don't eat walleye, don't understand that there unfortunately are a lot of bones. And that there was nothing they could do about it. Keep in mind both the bartender as well as the manager acknowledged that the walleye gets several complaints because of the amount of bones. (that sounds like a supplier problem, and should probably be addressed). My family used to own a restaurant in a campground, we served a walleye, we did not have issues with bones. If there ever was an issue, we understood that fish could be unpredictable, and we would just offer a discount and remake the fish. (It happens) Again, I am grateful that she ultimately gave us a 50% discount on that plate. We were more than happy to pay full price for everything else. But having someone give a condescending lecture about walleye, assuming that I have never eaten walleye before was unnecessary. I didn't need the lecture. That alone made put a damper on the entire experience. The way management handles unfortunate situations can make or break it for customers.

We sat at the bar for a drink while we waited for a table. I had a white Russian and my wife had a specialty cocktail, I don't remember what it was. We both enjoyed our drinks. We were seated in some elevated booths that had a view of the bar area, which was absolutely fantastic!! There is tons of regular restaurant seating in the back dining room rooms... We had the pig candy, cheese, curds, and the waitress recommended the fresh bread. The pig candy was very rich. One piece was enough for me. The cheese curds were very large bigger than tater tots. They tasted good, but I prefer smaller cheese curds. The waitress was right, the bread stole the show! One of the butters that it came with was cinnamon, which was fantastic! Dinner salad was very good. Tasted like homemade dressing. My wife had the pig sandwich and I had the gnocchi. Both were great, including the accoutrements like the french fries and garlic bread. The hostess came around, giving the ladies coronations, which was a nice touch. Great service and just genuinely nice people! We eat out every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This is now on our list.

Not bad bad but not good either charged $3.00 for half sausage and 3.00$ for half pepperoni and to top that off they charged over a 1:00$ for credit card use I have never seen that for restaurant orders. Also $4.00 per drink . Waitress was nice. Never again. They have lost a good customer please be aware that they are more interred in making money then pleasing their customers with something eatable. Long horn may be expensive but offer good food. Culvers have excellent butter burgers and staff is excellent. Many many places to go for much better food. We use to go have fillets but now do not intend to go back. Spending on good food is most important however when people try to jerk you around. don't let them!!!

The wings were definitely the highlight! Big, juicy, slightly crispy, and cooked fresh to order. With 31 flavors to choose from, it was tough to decide, but that just means I'll have to come back and try more! The fries were hot and crispy, just the way I like them. They also offer other apps like mac and cheese bites, fried okra, and even desserts, which I'll be trying next time. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. I dined in with a friend and we both ended up ordering to-go meals as well -- it was that good. There's even a private section available to rent for events like birthday parties, baby showers, or grad celebrations, which is a nice bonus. Also, very nice owners! I'll definitely be back again soon!
