Catalina is an iconic harbourside restaurant, family owned and operated since 1994. It is a light airy modern space with wonderful views, floor to ceiling glass, and outdoor balcony seating. The menu is Mediterranean-inspired and features sustainable seafood from the best producers Australia-wide, and grass fed and free range meat and poultry. The wine list is one of the best wine lists in Australia, featuring over 800 wines, and receiving a 3 Goblet rating every year in the Wine List of the Year Awards. The service is welcoming, friendly, informal and yet, professional. An ideal venue for all occasions: from everyday dining, to business lunches, to celebrations, to wedding receptions and events. We look forward to seeing you soon.

    We have been going to Catalina for the past 20 years. We are always amazed at the food and service, it just gets better and better every year. We had Xmas Eve dinner this year and the Peach Bellini and my lobster risotto were the highlight for me! Thank you

    Deciding what to order is such a challenge. We ordered a few different dishes to share so we didn't miss out on experiencing all the beautiful options.

    We recently came here just after we got engaged. My fiancée had been wanting to come here for ages and she was over the moon. The food, drinks and ambiance was perfect and the service was so intimate. Thank you so much for making such a special day even more magical.

    Catalina was at its brilliant best today on a perfect Sydney summer day with the shimmering harbour complementing our outstanding food, service and drinks. The girls kicked off with a lovely cocktail and drop of Veuve followed by a fantastic Chablis recommended by the slick staff. Every dish from the entrees, mains and desserts were delicious. Be back very soon. Thanks for making it such a special day.
