    A sunny, but cool day, we asked to be seated on the outdoor terrace with heaters, one being placed next to our table. It helped, but with the cool breeze one member of our group of 3 was chilly throughout the meal. Put that aside and everything else was outstanding. Three different servers worked with us and all were attentive, helpful, warm and polite. We had no trouble ordering the aglia/olio black pasta and a caesar salad. The portions are quite large and we could have ordered 2 of the pasta dishes for the 3 of us. The good part of that "mistake of ordering 3" is that my husband and I have another meal to share at home! Then dish is filled with flavor- anchovies, lots and lots of ground squid, garlic and olive oil. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the combination of all the flavors came together "par excellence". The caesar salad was also fantastic with thin slices of nutty parmesan. One of our group rarely eats salad and he dug in for seconds. We 3 look forward to coming back to The Daily Catch, on a quiet part of Atlantic Avenue.

    Great place, great atmosphere— if you want a nice but semi-relaxed date, this place is it. The waiter, PJ, was the man. Made us feel right at home, sold me on the special (Seared Halibut w/ Truffle Risotto), made us feel right at home, gave us the inside scoop on wines, and hooked up the homemade tiramisu. Highly recommend Ask me which was better- the service, food, vibes? Inconclusive

    A favorite of ours that never disappoints. Food, service and value. Just wish they’d install just a little sound dampening on the ceiling (I know, it has a beautiful rustic appearance, but you can work with that).

    We had 4 people in our party and we ate outside. The lighting and outdoor heating was perfect. Hugo our waiter did a wonderful job and was attentive. Our food arrived quickly and was hot and very flavorful. We will definitely be back.

    This is a very nice sister restaurant of the original. My son and I ate there for the first time and found the food to be very tasty and fresh. They provided great service and a fairly good value for the area for all the restaurants they compete with. We will go back again
