Wonderful restaurant - great food and top notch service. Only concern was the super different wine ordering process/policy. The wine menu is only online via a QR code AND if you only want a single glass of wine, you literally have to filter through, ask, have them go check (assuming to see if you have a bottle or have a bottle open) . . . if that answer is no, you have to repeat the whole process. For a restaurant of this caliber, I would absolutely expect a more customer friendly process.

It was our first visit to Chez Catherine, and we will definitely be back. Food was delicious. We ordered froie gras, salad, lamb shank, entrecote, creme brulee and chocolate mousse. A+ for every dish. Delicious, perfect temperature, precise texture in every dish. Coffee was hot as a pleasant surprise. Service was excellent as well. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to my friends.
