We order from here all the time, granted we have it deliver so it probably influences the amount you can request or sub. I Wish you could order a side of normal fries on Uber eats. They're pretty quick and timely with deliveries. Sesame ginger ahi tuna is my favorite to order on the menu, just wish it wasn't so small so for that I give it 4/5. read more

First time in. Hoping to find a diamond in the rough. We did not find it here. We sat in what would have been the 'family section'. It was kind of depressing. Not too sure what their theme is, because it feels like we're eating in a slightly less than clean box. Still, we were hoping that our food would make our visit better. It did not. I will spare readers the details regarding the food, except to say that 2 stars is more than generous. We ordered three meals and all three of us were disappointed. The bar side (over 21) looked like it had potential, but if you're looking for tasty food, there are about 20 restaurants within 5 minutes of here that are far better. read more

Catch 22 reopened as Catch. It's a brand new building. The service was great and hospitable. Everyone was super nice. Relaxing, easy going environment. Food was fresh and portioned perfectly. Had the salad. It was great, crisp green romaine, homemade ranch, grilled chicken. Husband had Wally's pizza. It was also wonderful. read more

Catch Table & Tap - Parmesan Garlic and Buffalo Wings. Meaty and tasty! - American Near Me - Merrillville, Indiana

My sister and I were on our way to portillos and we saw this disgusting place and thought we would check it out . Huge mistake !!!!!!!! I ordered my burger well done I got it after we waited long enough to make ten of them and it was medium . I cut it in half and sent it back and then noticed my burger was the one I cut !!!! And when I got it back it was microwaved !!!!! Fries and all ! I would never go there again !! read more

Stopped by for an early dinner on Black Friday. It was almost empty, which we were glad to see after being around crowds of people at the department stores. The music was a little loud for my liking, but I am admittedly "old" when it comes to music volume. For an appetizer we ordered the sweet chili shrimp. My meal was the garlic parm chicken wings with a side of parmesan truffle fries. My husband ordered a burger with cheddar cheese and Cajun fries. The appetizer came out pretty quickly. The shrimp had a delicate, light breading on it that was crispy but allowed the flavor to still come through. These 5 shrimp were pretty large too. My husband dais he really enjoyed his burger. The Cajun fries weren't to spicy. My chicken was not smothered in parm garlic sauce. There was a small amount on them, which was good because it was powerful. The side of parmesan truffle fries was a large. Again, not over powering flavor. I enjoy dippng the chicken and fries into ranch dressing. There 's was really good! We had never been to Catch 22 so I can't make a comparison. We truly enjoyed our visit here tonight. read more

From what I understand they had a lot more servers there and all were given trial periods, most didn't make the cut which is why I think the service was bad to start with when they opened. The good servers have prevailed and was nothing like I had heard. Here is what I observed from my visit... The good: Good food - Adult grilled cheese (huge sammich) & pot roast was delicious (big pile). quesadilla app was pretty good too. - my girl asked for her fries extra crispy and that's how they came. Attentive server/busser - My drink was never empty and there were never any plates just sitting around on our table. They have expediters to get your food to your table faster as well, that's nice so the kitchen isn't waiting on our server to return Clean - It's new, obviously it's clean Large bar - plenty of room in there to watch a game and grab a drink The bad: Front of House - This needs to be addressed immediately, this is what people first experience! 4 people crowding the front couldn't figure out who was seated where and to which servers, basically arguing with each other. There was what looked like a greeter or hostess/door opener standing there with a confused look on her face like she wasn't needed (she wasn't).There is a tiny window where the hostess stares through from her station to the dining tables.. she does it often and at long periods of time. Is something on my face? I know this all sounds trivial but it's chaotic at best at the front door... Wasted space/Unusual seating - The bar is very open and has large spaces where there definitely could be seating. There are tables where there shouldn't be, like by the kitchen door? Right in front of the entrance? No one wants to sit in these places guys. Time between Apps/dinner - We had our appetizer for maybe 5 minutes before our food came out.. not ideal but not the end of the world All in all it was pretty good. The large beer selection and tasty food will get me to come back until I have a bad experience of my own. read more

Grown Up Grilled Cheese with a Goose&Cranberry while watching the NBA finals, listening to a musician, and having a great time with the waitstaff - this place was a great find! The sandwich was huge and filling. There was no outside seating left by the time we arrived but we sat a table by the bar and were close enough to the patio to enjoy the outside from inside. The space was huge and the waitress was a hoot. Will be back the next time I'm thirst in Merrillville. read more

This review is for the bar only, never had the food. Anyone that doesn't care for the atmosphere in here ("cold") is not a bar person; the atmosphere is excellent. Repeat, excellent. For once, someone put a sizable bar out in the open without a lot of distracting crap. There's a smaller tv or two with the sound off and that's plenty. You can see three sides of the rectangle from almost anywhere you sit. The aisles behind the bar seats are plenty wide. It is the epitome of a good socializing bar. I can't give Catch 22 the primary credit for it though. Buffalo Wild Wings deserves the credit. That's right, this is the old Buffalo Wild Wings building which had the best bar in the area when it was open. The reason Catch 22 is good is because of the structural integrity and layout that the old BW3 had. Beer selection is not all that but it is good for the area. Bartenders seem above average. Has a couple other geographical advantages which I'll leave to you to infer. The place seems even more suited to warm weather, I'll be hanging out here for the foreseeable. read more

I came home impatiently hungry, found their Groupon and away we went. On the downside my 5 yr old disqualified us from the outdoor patio seating, but it was 90 degrees outside anyway. The indoor service was pretty adequate w tables spacious enough to spread out our drinks and food, and the noise levels mostly tame at 5pm on a Saturday. The menu descriptions make everything sound delicious and we weren't disappointed by our meals. Definitely try the chips w your build-a-burger, soooooo well done and thick! The french fries had a nice seasoning to them and my lady thought paying $9 for a fresco burrito w no sides was a good idea...hmmmm, but whatever. After flipping thru their 20+ beer cards, the one I selected was unavailable since they were starting an 11 beer Sam Adams tap-a-thon. It turned out to be a good thing once the waitress told me I could get a flight of 7oz glasses for $5.50. I guess the catch-22 here is that it can't be a great restaurant cuz it's a bar, but maybe it's a great bar when everyone is done eating?? Anyway, it's passable overall and we will go again. read more

Came in on a Monday evening, food was good and they were running half price appetizers. The game was on and it was way too loud to enjoy dinner here. Good for watching sports games if you like loud atmosphere. Staff was friendly. read more

Groupon gave me the incentive to try this place. The spinach dip was decent, I liked that it came with toasted flat bread instead of tortilla chips. The California chicken wrap was good too. Their cheese cake was excellent. Service was great, never an empty glass. I would go back. read more

Out the gate the wait staff is amazing. You can't miss the TV that's over 100 inches and the apps are deeeeelicious. I had the cheese curds and candied bacon both were off the hook and for the entree I had the fish and chips. The atmosphere is great for kids AND ITS MARCH MADNESS!!!!! They added a few St Patrick meals and drinks I which end on the 18th SO GET IN HERE!!!!! RJ was my waiter and he had to be the best ever! He was friendly, quick with the drinks, and seemed to be working the entire building from tables to the TV audio. Look if you've never been here stop sleeping on this joint and support Merrillville!!!! PLUS this place has turn into my new found gem I've past it a million times but never came in but this the new hang out spot for me now. read more

Nice sports bar with something for everyone. Small menu with a nice selection. 20 beers on tap with a nice variety. A little more upscale than your average beer and wings type place for a reasonable fare. read more

Catch Table & Tap - Shot of the bar area. More family dining also available. - American Near Me - Merrillville, Indiana

Came here on 5/19 because we purchased a Groupon. We were celebrating my best friends bday. Well, we waited for a bar table and it took approximately 30 minutes to be seated. We were greeted by a rude waitress, who obviously had a long day (we know this because she told us when we were leaving). When we put our drink order in, we had (3) strawberry margaritas, they brought them out in a 16 oz cup, as opposed to a margarita glass...we thought nothing of it and assumed this was what their restaurants protocal was. Well, on our second round of drinks, my bff's cousin received a 24 oz margarita glass and we had the regular glass as before. My bff and I looked at each other and said...WTF? So we asked the waitress what that's all about, and her answer was that they bring the drinks out in whatever glass is available. So if only a shot glass is available is that what I sould expect to receive my margarita in? I asked her if our glasses will be the same price as her glass...she said yes! Again, WTF?!? So I asked to speak to a manager. The manager promptly came over, and before she could toss out the same BS the waitress told her I explained the variance of the size and didn't understand how if I am receiving less of the product how is it fair for me to be charged the same price. She apologized and gave me and my bff one on the house. Fine. On to food...Me and my bff's cousin ordered the nachos. They were awesome! My bff ordered the quesidillas and she fell in love. The drawback is the food took so long we were almost drunk...drinking our calories on an empty stomache! All-in-all, we had fun. Will we go back? NOT! Just wasn't worth the money. read more

I went there with my sister because from the outside it looks very nice. We also thought this would be a nice experience and something different than the places we usually go to. The food was okay, but not great to where I will go back. We were also placed in the family section, which sucked. I do not plan going back for food, but the bar section looks promising. Sadly we were not able to sit at the bar. read more

We choose this place every weekend! Great drinks and craft beers on tap with the best Pineapple Chicken Burger! Tasty appetizers, flatbreads, tacos, burgers and dinners. Love the live music, outdoor seating and open doors during the summer. read more

The place is a bit on the cold side as far as atmosphere is concerned. It is very open, maybe a little too open concept. We had a wrap and their steak. The steak was good but not great. I am nearly certain this is not a 21 day aged steak as claimed. The garlic mashed had good flavor but was overprocessed so it had a gummy texture. The wrap was good but was claimed to have a cilantro aioli, which was not on the wrap and when asked for it, it took 2 servers 10 minutes to figure out what we were asking for and by the time we got it, the wrap was soggy. The pluses: their beer selection was fantastic, their daily specials seem to be a great value and will keep me coming in on occasion. read more

The band is so damm loud. You have to yell so the person next to you can hear you. This bar is to small for a band. You also have 50yr old drunks walking around dancing with everybody. If you want to leave with a headache and stomach upset this is the place to be. I will not be back on a Friday night. I enjoy live music but not when I have to hold my hands against my ears. read more

The boyfriend and I came here for dinner last night. It is nice change of pace among the endless chain restaurants surrounding it. We got to pick where we wanted to sit and opted for a table in the nearly empty dining area. It was still loud due to the TV noise and the loud cheers coming from the bar area due to the Bulls playoff game. The service was great. Our waitress was definitely on top of it and always around when we needed something. She was helpful answering all of our questions. The food was nothing spectacular, but good. We got the California Flatbread which is basically like a salad on top of flatbread. It was difficult to eat, but decent. I got the Shrimp Po Boy. I really liked it except the bread was so flimsy the whole sandwich fell apart and the "olive tapenade" is really just chopped up olives. The weirdest part of the meal was after we were done with our appetizer, our waitress came back to say that they had run out of the fish tacos which is what the BF ordered. This was about 30 minutes after ordering, so I'm not sure why it took so long to figure that out, but he had to order something else. A couple of minutes later she came back to say that my po boy was just about ready and did I want to wait for her to bring it out until my boyfriend's meal was ready or not. My boyfriend told her just to bring it out since he didn't want it to get cold. Usually I'm about half done with my meal when my boyfriend's finished eating, but I was just about done eating by the time they brought his meal out. The waitress was very nice about it and they gave us a discount off our meal. The boyfriend really enjoyed his steak sandwich although same comments about the bread falling apart. My margarita was okay, but came in a pint glass which I thought was strange. Since my boyfriend is moving to the area, I'm sure we'll be back especially since the bar area seems like a lot of fun and they have a patio in the summer. I think we'll both try different meals next time - shouldn't be an issue since their menu is absolutely huge. read more

Great patio in the summer. We held a work event and the staff really stepped up to make sure everything went smoothly. Our wait staff was attentive and incredibly responsive, Justin offered tips on menu selection and even the owner, Jason personally came over, checked in and sat with us for a minute to make sure everything was going well. Food was very good, service top notch, atmosphere great, drinks cold, what more can you want? read more

Sunday afternoon 2pm. Parking lot empty. Understood why when we got in. Two servers that also took care of bar. Server walked past us three times never stopped. We finally just left. Ps. Very dirty read more

My wife and I went to Catch last night. I have to say everything Catch was doing was right! Given the times, Catch had 2 employees dedicated to cleaning and sanitizing. They were going at it non-stop. They were doing a tremendous job. Our server, Daniel, was knowledgeable, personable, and professional. His recommendations were spot on. In fact, all the wait staff were hustling and performing in a professional manner. The Wings at Catch are THE BEST in the area, no comparison. I've been to lots of wing joints, but they are all a distant second in both wing prep and flavor. Sriracha Bourbon is the best. The Truffle Fries and the Thai Shrimp were great as well. Great beer selection and AWESOME beers prices. I got a chance to speak to the General manager and tell him what a great job they are doing. I also got to speak to the owner, who was on premises (always a good sign), to tell him that he is running a good place. I just want to say that Catch is a hidden gem. Any place can do one part right; but when you put out service, food, price, and overall management at high quality level, it sets itself apart from the rest. Needless to say, we will be going back a lot, and telling all of our friends to do so as well. I applaud Catch for running a restaurant in both a fun and professional manner in a time that makes that a little more difficult. Catch read more

I'm giving it 4 stars based on their great specials and great customer service. The food is a bit bland. I had the pork belly sandwich which has the potential to be great if it had flavor. Wife had the tacos. She said the rice tasted like it came out of a box. The manager did come around to get our feedback which was great! It shows they're really interested in their customers and want to make improvements. She offered to get me something else which was sweet but I managed through. I have no doubt they'll find a way to add some flavor to this menu! We will be back to try again! read more

Catch 22 just reopened I went and they had wonderful service. I tried theirs drink that they are known for very good not too strong but just strong enough. I had nachos for appetizer which were huge. They used chili chicken for the meat I didn't get that much chicken but they were still good. Also had hot wings and fries those were really good hot wings were fresh and cooked to perfection and fries were good also. Overall good experience. Nice and clean environment in the new remodeled building read more

Came here for cinco de mayo and their shrimp tacos were to die for! I was full halfway through my food, yet I wanted more. Good stuff, I'm definitely coming back for those the next time I pay a visit. I didn't like their mixed drinks special though. I tried mine and my friend's drink and they both had a funky taste. Then again, I don't drink that much either so maybe that was part of it. Otherwise, good waiters, good atmosphere and fun. They also have outside seating, so that's something else to enjoy! read more

Well came here to try the bar food and ordered some wings and a steak sandwich.. The wings were raw and the steak sandwich was ok .. It's a nice place to have a drink but the food here sucks. The service was good and beer was cold but that was the only thing good about this place.. read more

Catch Table & Tap - American Near Me - Merrillville, Indiana

Catch 22 is being demolished. 4/12/17 Just drove by, not sure what is going to be built in its place. I hope it's going to be a decent place. We ate there 2 times. First time, horrible service, bland food. The 2nd time it improved greatly. Kinda sad to see it go. Update: Catch 22 is rebuilding in the same spot. read more

Horrible service New waitresses forced to work alone. Waiting for my order for nearly an hour. When the order arrived, it was wrong. Should've just gone to McDonald's. read more

We order the salad special with extra shrimp and avocado it took like a half hour,by the time we got the order was only few slices of avocados and the manager was very rude saying that he was the manager and was fine raising he's voice to us . Bad experience,not coming back. read more

The appetizer was good. I ordered steak tacos, they were tasty but didn't like the rice or over cooked beans. Didn't order any bar drinks.

Went back a few times now and have had better service, Andrea the Owner was super nice and a guy who is always behind the bar was too. I have had burgers each time and will not change my mind on the food but the service is much better. I went on a Wednesday where they had $5.00 burgers (Cheese .50 cents) comes with lettuce, onion, tomato , mustard, and ketchup. There really is not much else you need. The burger was GREAT, it really was a good burger! They had $1 domestic beers, you cant go wrong! The only reason I did not give Catch 22 was the service from the bartender. She really was not attentive and they really were not that packed. On the other hand, everyone else was super nice and welcoming. The bartender did not do anything wrong but there was not anything great about her. I will be going back for sure and I hope I can give Catch 22 4 to 5 STARS :) read more

Wasn't impressed with the previous Catch 22 so figuring we would give the new restaurant a chance...big mistake! Took almost 10 minutes AFTER ordering to get our 1st beer. Appetizers came out before. Took another 1o minutes to get our 2nd beer. Noticed bartender was more interested in washing glasses for the 12 or so people in the entire place. I then watched the bartender use his t-shirt to open someone else's beer.....SERIOUSLY! Was charged $1.00 to change the type of cheese on our sandwich - not add- change without being told. Besides that food was average. Will we be back very doubtful. read more

I had my baby shower here and it went amazing! Food and service were great and the owner is such a sweetheart. I definitely recommend Catch to anyone hosting an event with 35 people or less! :) read more

Food=Great! Waitstaff=Great! Drinks=Great! Atmosphere=Great! Large garage doors that open for an outdoor feel=Great! Swatting mosquitoes all night= not so great, BRING OFF or drink more, so you won't feel them. read more

I had the ribs...way under cooked...my wife had Salmon and it was inedible...no consideration by the server...take it or leave it attitude....we basically gave her the food back... it is a lively atmosphere but these guys on the keyboards were like a 33 record on 78 speed...I guess that shows my age...for you youngsters...it was way too fast... I can take a bad performance but when you do nothing to make up for it, then I understand how your business is run. I am surprised they are still in business putting that kind of food out...and it's a shame because its a great location and a nice facility...just poorly managed...extremely poorly managed! read more

Not kid friendly. Highly recommend not eating here. There is almost no 21 and under room. It would be better to classify this restaurant as a bar and not a family restaurant restaurant. read more
