Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in West Gosford

It was a busy day at the Box but we had a corner seat. It was very crowded inside as the weather was wet so no outside tables open due to rain. It was extremely noisy inside as all tables were so close to each other. The food is always good but the cocktail seemed like it had no alcohol in it. It’s in a great location so always a good view.

Great Food, Attentive staff. Different dining experience on the long table but effective

We loved all the food, wine pairings and the staff and hospitality was fantastic. We hope to return to Catalina.

This is our 4th visit and we’re lucky to see chef Perry in the kitchen every time. The restaurant is full with dynamic vibe. Friendly attentive service as always. Quality food produce with excellent cooking churn out tasty dishes. I love the garlic bread and boiled greens - something simple but done great and almost perfect. My partner love the flourless chocolate cake - she reckoned it’s the best since Merivale’s Lorraine’s Patisserie has closed. The signature dishes were tuna with avocado cream and wagyu rump with anchovy butter - so tasty that we both keep praising it and want more. However we’re a bit let down by the pearl perch - it’s a bit overcooked. Overall another great dining experience and we for sure will return.

We were there for a friends birthday lunch. The service was great, I believe the person looking after us was Kara. Really friendly, helpful.food was amazing, as was the wine choice. I was a little worried at first that we would be in the wine cellar. Was not sure if it would be too small, but it was actually really nice. We have been there before and definitely go back.
