I can here last August and had the Tostada Catch Negra and I have not stopped thinking about it! I finally came back and it was just as good as I remember. It comes with Abulone & Octopus and they do not play! Hella worth it! I never had black sauce before coming here, I don't know what's in it but it's BOMB! The Carrusel de Camarón was good too. There's so many other things on the menu I want to try. I'll be back for sure. Also everyone who works here is so nice. They have sports on the tv's & good music. If I lived closer I'd be here all the time read more

From the moment you walk in, the ambiance pulls you in, vibrant, energetic, loud and perfectly set for an unforgettable dining experience. It's the kind of place that feels alive, where every detail makes you want to sit back, relax, and savor every second. They have live music (Banda), if you don't mind being in a loud environment or if you want calm environment you can eat outside. The service? IMPECCABLE. Attentive without hovering, friendly without being forced, and genuinely invested in making sure everything is perfect. You feel welcomed, taken care of, and honestly spoiled. Now let's talk about the real stars: the aguachiles Spicy in the BEST possible way, bold, fresh, and unapologetically intense. The heat hits you just right, balanced perfectly with citrus and freshness. Every bite wakes up your soul and keeps you going back for more. If you love spice, this is pure heaven. And the Agua de pepino with a Tajín rim? LIFE-CHANGING. Refreshing, crisp, perfectly sweet, and that Tajín rim takes it to another level. Hands down the best agua fresca I've ever had, cooling the spice while still stealing the show. This place doesn't just earn 5 stars, it demands them. Flavor, vibe, service, and drinks all come together flawlessly. If you haven't been here yet, you're seriously missing out. I'll be back again and again. read more

Great food. We are huge fans of the ceviche, guac, and surf and turf burrito. It's a hole in the wall place in Van Nuys and very unassuming but the food is great and the ambience is cool. Service is also very nice and very friendly! read more

Catch 818 Mariscos - Guacamole - Seafood Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We wentt there today. May 25th labor day. The waitress was extremely rude. We are never going back again and when I find out her name I will post it. Tall long hair. She has always been rude but today she crossed the line. My husband told her that we were ready to order and her rude response was "I'm not!!!" With an attitude. We were nothing but nice to her because we are not that kind of people and we hope she doesn't do it to anyone else. My message to the owner is to get rid of her ASAP, she for sure hates her job and is probably unhappy. read more

Good food...Horrible loud live music!...it's a very small place for the band playing ( not the kind of music that I like) however it is way too loud you can't even have a conversation read more

The food was good. We ordered the Campechana and it had tons of seafood in it. The serviced was not good at all, but I guess you don't go to these places for the service. The outdoor patio was dirty and uncared for. Maybe order to go if you want food from here. read more

I wish half stars were available on yelp. Three seems too low, but it wasn't quite 4. I'd been craving fish tacos, so we decided to support a local business. First impression of the menu is that most of the tacos are fried. I wish there were some sort of lighter option. The tacos de pescados were massive. There's a thick layer of cheese on the tortilla, which almost made the heavy breading too much. It was so thick that it was pretty easy to pull the breading off and I found the taco much better without that layer. The taco de pulpo was more interesting. I liked the fried leeks, which I hadn't really had before. I don't think it needed the grilled cheese layer. Calamari was fine. It needed a little seasoning. Chips needed a bit of salt. Guac was good, but it needed jalapeño to give it a kick. read more

Food is awesome their ceviche it's super great to me and the bartenders and weight staff are always nice, friendly and helpful

I give it 4 stars because the fish ceviche was tasty, good michelada, ambience, cucumber lime drink, friendly staff, (fun listening to the norteño trio that was there for a bit) The fish and shrimp breaded tacos were ok not something I would be interested in ordering again but I will sure return for the fish ceviche! read more

Just tried Catch 818 Mariscos and I'm seriously impressed! The seafood tastes super fresh and every dish is packed with flavor. The ceviche was one of my favorites -- super refreshing with the perfect citrus kick. The shrimp tacos were loaded and so good, and the aguachile had that perfect spicy touch without being overwhelming. Portions are generous, everything is well-seasoned, and you can tell they put a lot of care into their food. The service was friendly and quick, and the overall experience made me want to come back right away. Definitely one of my new go-to mariscos spots. Highly recommend if you love fresh, flavorful seafood! read more

Food is great! The micheladas are bomb!! The waitress are very nice too! It's not too crowded, but has its moments..

I give this place 3.8. Food was great and presented well. The staff was attentive and was able to provide our needs and assistance. The place inside needs improvement tho. The table we were at was a little sticky and not cleaned well on top of chipped parts and paint was dying. read more

Went again to give them a try. I love sea food but this place either lost their chef or... idk what happened. It's funny how some reviews mention good service but horrible food. It it's true. Place is a no go for me anymore. They started to good. Too. Ambiance is what it is loud music whatever I can deal with. But loud music and bad food is a receipt for a bad experience. read more

Catch 818 is my new favorite in the valley! I don't think I will be getting fish tacos or delicious aguachiles anywhere else. OMG literally everything here is good you really can't go wrong. I love the music and vibes here too its a lot of fun. We were fighting over the aguachiles. We got it spicy and it was perfect. I also devoured the supreme fish taco. It's huge so perfect to share for two people. We also tried the Surf & Turf Burrito and we loved it! Every aspect of my meal here was on point. Highly highly recommend. Service is wonderful as well. read more

This place has excellent service and really tasty food. It's nice that they generally have a band, but sometimes the noise level makes it difficult to talk over dinner. Nevertheless, I think the food and service are good overall. Ceviche, Aguachiles, Tacos governador, pescado frito. Try it all! read more

Great soft tacos! Very fast, friendly and great quality ingredients Highly recommended.

Great spot for lunch and a drink. Came during a break and got the fish taco plate and a margarita and it came out quickly and was exactly what I was hoping for. Perfectly battered and fried fish topped with all that is right and holy in this world. Will definitely come back sometime to see how the place lights up at night. read more

Catch 818 Mariscos - Seafood Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I was very excited to go since I've heard decent things about this place. Of course mostly about the drinks, but I was there for the food itself. According to most reviews it's said that the prices are reasonable but I feel like it's quite the opposite. I'm severely disappointed with how little the give, especially the burrito that I ordered for take out. For something that's $18+, it's very underwhelming how small it is. Not saying it didn't tastes good, but it very much doesn't justify the price in my opinion. The salsa was good, but the agua chile was an extra $2?! Absurd. I would give this place another chance, just not in the close future. read more

I e been to this place once, and that's all we can handle. The drinks are not that great. The day we went there was a Tuba band playing and damn they were loud. I brought my wife out on a date and we were not able to talk the entire time we were there. I don't think I can handle this place a little too... authentic haha I would think. read more

Waitress was asked to lower the TV volume as I the customer had paid for music. Waitress stated that restaurant catch 818 was promoting the TV show witch sounds completely false.

Delicious food and drinks!! Highly recommend I'm picky with my mariscos, but this is a great place to enjoy that!

I cheated: I didn't come in blind. A coworker shared half his fish taco order with me before and I already know the fish taco was going to be good. He also mentioned he got them during Taco Tuesday. So on the next Taco Tuesday I was in the area, I went to get a whole order for myself. Their BEER-BATTERED FISH TACO was as good as I remembered them and very affordable at $6. Looking for parking in the surrounding streets is a nightmare, but if you're willing to drive a block or two, it would be worth it. It's not obvious from the outside but they have a decent sized indoor seating space and a larger outdoor dining patio. I would post photos of the tacos if I remembered to take one before finishing my entire meal as soon as I returned to the car. Beer battered fish taco tuesdays read more
