    Food is outstanding and authentic. Maybe the best Spanish food in the valley although it’s on the pricier side. The tapas and charcuterie are especially good. Can’t pick anything from service. All of our requests during booking were fulfilled when we arrived.

    What an outstanding choice! Excellent service casually paced so that we good enjoy each course without feeling rushed. The ambiance is smart but casual and the staff could not have been more welcoming or gracious. The food was delicious, nicely prepared and attractively presented. The octopus, scallops, wedge salad, and peach empanadas were wonderful. Looking forward to our next opportunity to dine at Catalan.

    We will definitely be back to Catalan. Tried them during Greater Palm Springs restaurant week, and loved everything about it. The Octopus appetizer is amazing - not what you’d think. Try it !

    We went in for Restaurant Week. My daughter loved the octopus appetizer. My wife and I had the rib eye and it was seasoned and cooked to perfection. We tried all 3 deserts and loved them all. We will be back in the future.

    We are locals and returned to Catalan after an unexplainable absence! As part of Greater Palm Springs Restaurant Week. The 3 course prix fixe menu had outstanding selections. My wife had the delicious grilled octopus as her appetizer ( and I loved it!). I had the very refreshing gazpacho that was v authentic. For mains, she had the 12 oz rib eye, perfectly medium rare with roasted Yukon potatoes. Beef!!! I had the mixed Paella, which I mistaking thought would be half meat and half seafood. It was half chicken and half sausage/meat. Very delicious, though. Dessert was a Carmel custard 😋 and the burnt cheesecake🙃😋. Our Server, Darwin, was fantastic! Perfectly cold martinis to start and a nice Albariño with our meal. To-go boxes for tonight!!!!! We will return much sooner!

    I took advantage of their Palms Springs Restaurant Week special menu. I had not been to Catalan in a couple of years and this experience made me realize that I need to go there much more often. Everything about this visit was memorable. The food was excellent and generous. I went for the mixed paella and it was great. The sausage was delicious and the seafood was all very good. If you like octopus dishes as I do you must have their octopus appetizer--it is the best octopus preparation I have encountered in many years of octopus. Raphael my server and Angie the hostess took very good care of me and reinforced my need to return soon. Try to be seated in their indoor covered patio--it is very comfortable even in our current high temperatures and quite pretty and relaxing.
