    Each time I step into Catch LA, I feel like royalty. The ambiance is sexy, but it is the service that truly steals the show each time! Every member of the staff exudes professionalism and genuine warmth. They anticipate our needs before we even realize them, making every experience at my favorite LA restaurant impeccable - so much so that we've made coming to Xmas Eve dinner at Catch LA an annual tradition with my chosen family! I have no notes on the effortless quality of food, beverages, and, most importantly, THE SERVICE and THAT is why Catch LA is a step above the rest! Come for a cocktail at the bar, enjoy stunning rooftop views of the city while having delectable food and beverages, and experience dining at its finest! Thanks Catch LA - until next time. - Rodney and Friends.

    We really enjoyed the music, environment, and service at Verse. What blew us away was the quality of every dish we had. My wife is not a desert person and I had to fight her over the chocolate cake and carmel desert. delish!
