CATALINA'S RESTAURANT

I eat here everyday and love it. they have the best Spanish food in Gainesville GA Hands down. The waiters know exactly what I want and become your friend and remember you. They have the Best cook in Gainesville.

Very good food, feels like it was cooked right at home... Delicious flavor and good variety... calm music playing and tv shows for kids and adults on the TVs.... Will definitely come back... service was friendly and attentive...

The waitresses are sooo nice. Juliana Is the best EVER. The scenery is vivid with flags of multiple nations. They have family friendly music, and the food is absolutely amazing!!! I would highly recommend to anyone who is out for a bite to eat.

10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND

I came in today with a young man I support who has developmental disabilities. We took a long time to order but the waitress was so patient and helpful with us. It was awesome to see someone really care about helping us pick something we’d like because we did not know quite what to order. The food was AMAZING. I had the pan pollo and it is easily my new favorite food. The chicken was so tender and the sauce is unlike anything I’ve tasted before! I have an easily upset stomach so I have to be careful what I eat, but holy cow, my tummy approved! My friend ordered the taco salad and he loved it as well! When I went to the bathroom later, my friend went to pay, which he usually needs a bit of assistance to do, and the waitress helped him through the process. What struck me was that she spoke to him like she would any other person, with dignity and respect, whereas a lot of people will speak to him like he’s a child. I appreciate that as much as the food. We’ll definitely be back!

If you're looking for Mexican or Salvadorian food, look no further. Freshly prepared and authentic taste, the food far surpassed my expectations. The staff here are quite friendly and personable. The atmosphere is quiet (went for dinner on a Friday night) and the environment is clean.
