   Nice local place. Food was ok not stellar. They need a bartender who is experienced.

   We enjoyed the seafood and the portions were very good sized. We enjoyed the meal and the atmosphere being quiet and able to have lovely conversation. The waitress was very good with refills and making sure we had everything we wanted.

   Our server Catherine was outstanding! The food was delicious and arrived at our table at just the right time after finishing the previous course. We were made to feel as "special " guests yet this was our first visit . Look forward to our next visit to Cat & Owl.

   Hard do give this place a fair review at this time. We were there during a bad time for them as the area had just experienced a series of massive rainstorms that day. I think there were only 2 staff members there and one was extremely concerned about getting home. No more guests were seated after us.

   Had a table for 9. Only one other couple in restaurant should have been a warning. We were there for a half hour before our drink order was taken. Another 15 before our appetizer orders were taken. One of our party ordered oyster Rockefeller and the oysters had gone bad! We finally put our food order in after an hour and a half. Mixed results on the food. But overall, not good. I am specialist because I recommended the place without reading reviews. Never again!

   There was only one server covering all front-of-house responsibilities, but she was congenial. We waited forever in the bartender-less bar for our table in the only 1/3 full restaurant. The women's bathroom was dirty (grime on the changing table was especially gross). The food was edible but plain with zero flair (worse than an at-home meal), and the seafood seemed like it was frozen grocery-store fare, definitely not fresh. The whole experience was bizarre and overpriced. The server was super nice, though, which is the only reason this is not a one-star review. Definitely do not recommend.

   The service was great and would definitely go back. Prices a little high but it was a celebration so it was fine.

    The Cat & Owl is an excellent restaurant. We had a great experience. The food was delicious, the server was friendly, prompt and made us feel special. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
