    Service slow, 2 tables next to us had orders forgotten about. Food was good. Some staff were overly and unnecessarily talkative. Heard staff talking in a negative light about other staff, not good. Our waiter seemed a bit in over his head

    I’m sad this location is closing, but glad I got to experience it before closing. Every time we visited, the service and food was always top notch, including this time!

    We love this restaurant; so sad it's going to close soon. We'll really miss it. Catch 35 was a great part of Wacker Drive and the Chicago River.

    The food was reasonably good, but nothing out of the ordinary. We loved sitting outside and enjoyed the nighttime skyline of Chicago. Our waiter was very nice, but we found the service a little slow, probably due to kitchen flow workflow.
