Catalino's

Waitress was super nice and did her best to describe the food better than what was on the menu description as it was a bit unclear. The food looked and was good, but did not really exceed my expectations with the flavor. There was handmade tortillas though!

I've been eyeing Catalino's for some time.  I have heard some great reviews.  Honestly, I was underwhelmed and unimpressed. I got the gaucamole and elotes loco as appetizers.  The guacamole was the blandest I have ever tasted in my live.  It tasted like they just mashed an avocado and brought it out to the table. The elotes loco really threw me off with the ketchup.  I was hesitant when I read the description but decided to try it since I love corn so much.  I immediately regretted my decision. For the entree I choose the Steak Catlino's.  While it was bland as toast and milk it did have a slightly better melody of flavors.  My lunch partner requested hot sauce, which was an A+ move.  Once I slathered it in the house green hot sauce the dish was a nice 3/5. Disclaimer: I have been told Guatemalan food is "not spicy." That may also mean "not flavorful at all, food you can safely give your 90 year old grandmother with high blood pressure." So maybe Guatemalan food just isn't truly for me. On the plus side, the environment is very clean and the art is beautiful. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Had a group of eight people. We were all very pleased. A plus cuisine for B price. It's a husband and wife who seems to be in charge of everything . Consequently it's not fast service but every plate was warm. A very pleasant dining experience.

Delicioso!!!! Tastes just like grandma's recipes.

New place South American cuisine lots of homemade meats and veggies. Delicious!! Small, it will catch on and will get crowded. Friendly husband and wife dream Hard workers. You won't be disappointed!

Exquisite, delicious, and expertly prepared Guatemalan food. Expect the unexpected and leave very satisfied and happy. We loved the elotes, guacamole, dobladas, and chuchitos as our appetizers. Our entrees for our party of five were: Pepian (chicken breast served in an out of this world pumpkin seed sause), Kak'ik (lean turkey cubes in a red chili sauce - perfect for those on a clean, Paleo diet), Carnitas (fried pork pieces with handmade corn tortillas and several sauces and garnishes to go with it), and Steak Catalina's with a pickled beet relish that we just LOVED!! All of the dishes were delicious and our party of five enjoyed everything. The restaurant also has vegan and vegetarian items - the kitchen is very accomodating in this respect. Since we ordered several appetizers some of us in our group couldn't finish their dinner entree so we did have to ask for a takeout box. And guess what? Not only is the food five stars, five diamonds, but their to go containers and drink cups are biodegradable and compostable! Talk about being eco friendly! Not only do you feel so good eating this delicious, very healthy food but you feel so good that this restaurant cares about the environment as well! We are DEFINITELY coming back and leaving room for dessert next time! Give this restaurant a try and prepare to be blown away by unique, authentic Guatemalan food.

Fabulous experience. Chef came right out and explained options for GF and vegetarian incase. I personally had and would recommend the ceviche, and the churasco. Both were meticulously prepared and the fresh ingredients were noticeable. I would recommend Catalino’s to anyone. Period.

Me encanta! My Spanish class took a field trip to Catalino’s and the food and service was perfect. Alejandro, our waiter, entertained us as we struggled through ordering in Spanish and the food was awesome! The Kak’ik is amazing and we were surprised with a dessert of rellenitas. Gracias a ustedes! Vamos a volver :)
