Catalina's Kitchen

The best mexican food I have evere tried in California. Definitely the best.

The food is great and so is the atmosphere inside. Lighting is good thanks to the huge windows. The ladies worked great on making sure they got my order correctly and I didn’t have to wait that long for it to be ready! Will be coming back for sure.

Birria taco was good. Chorizo breakfast burrito was really dry but sauces make it easier to eat. Coffee better than Dutch. Ladies were nice but service was not great. Only got checked on after I paid. Bussed my own plates.

The staff definitely needs some lessons in being attentive to their customers, they didn't bring chips and salsa to our table after two different waiters said they would bring some right out to us. Then they completely forgot our drinks and disappeared entirely in the back right after bringing our food so we couldn't signal to them that they forgot something. Then to be totally odd instead of setting the check down at the table and letting you play on your own time, the waitress stood there and read the total to you, not giving the check to you to look at mind you. And stood there waiting for payment right then and there. And when I pointed out we ordered drinks that we didn't get, she goes oh do you want them now? No dear, we are done with our food now but thanks.
As far as the food goes, it's okay. The street tacos were really grisly and not great. But my daughter really liked her chili relano. The prices aren't too expensive, but if I'm going to spend the money at an establishment in an effort to support the local economy. I do expect that you check on your patrons at least once after bringing the food to see if they might need that water you forgot to give them.
