Best Wineries in Elizabeth

5 stars across the board. First time visit to Catalu, and we will definitely be back. This place has checks all the boxes of a fine dining restaurant without the pretentiousness that is often part of the fine dining experience. The tapas was spectacular and paella was even more delicious. Our waitress (Angie?) was affable and knew the menu backwards and forwards, although it was her first week of employment at the restaurant. Very pleasant, indeed. We look forward to booking at Catalu again very soon.

We love this place. The only reason I rated the food slightly lower is that they really don't have much kid friendly on their brunch menu, and they were not willing/able to accommodate what we thought would have been some pretty easy substitutes. But it's a great atmosphere, good food, great wine selection, the best smelling candles ever, etc. Parking is painful, but don't let that stop you from trying. Highly recommend.

We decided on Flemings after receiving a multi spot gift card for Christmas. Menu had multiple items that we enjoy on a fancy dinner out. They offered a Valentine Menu, we did the normal menu instead. We stayed for 2.5hrs, and savored a slow paced meal. Started with Prosciutto Burrata and a bowl of French Onion Soup. Our entrees of the Main Filet and a Ribeye were cooked perfectly to a mid rare and mid well, we paired with truffle garlic mashed potatoes and brussels. The best part of the dinner however was our dessert- the Chocolate Lava Cake is made from scratch and takes 35mins to cook, this gave us plenty of time to digest and make room. We did order a bottle of wine as well as several cocktails. The Expresso Martini hit the spot and was tasty. Our Waitress Savanna was super nice, very friendly and accommodating. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a great place to have an intimate meal and experience.

Friday late lunch is a favorite way to start the weekend and it did not disappoint for Valentines Day. Capital cosmos and local beer to start our dining followed by onion soup and steaks - perfection. Dessert was yummy coconut pie to share. Mario our server was attentive and on point. Parking behind Dunhill garage makes this a super easy trip to Uptown.

We arrived a little early to have a cocktail at the bar. Service was classy! We seated on time and enjoyed appertizers to share. We were not rushed. We did order main meals and a couple sides (beets and Brussels). The main meals were fantastic, however the sides never came. The waitress was lovely and kept our drinks full. Food and atmosphere was great. We’ll be back again.
