The Daily Catch Waterfront

We had dinner here while on vacation. We ate on the patio, we couldn't have asked for better atmosphere! Great service, and outstanding weather. We started with the Oysters Rockefeller, they were very flavorful, a great choice on our part! I ordered the Scallops with tomato sauce. It was very flavorful, however, it was prepared with a tad more olive oil than I prefer. I've included a photo for reference. My wife ordered the black pasta, as she had never had squid ink pasta before. She enjoyed the pasta.

Initially stopped by here during a food tour and has a cocktail and clams casino. Both were very good, staff was welcoming, and we got a good feel from it during that short visit. That encouraged us to stop by for lunch a few days later as we were heading out of town. For me, the chickpea salad and a small side of the squid-ink pasta was a perfect lunch and the perfect amount. The chickpea salad had a very good blend of flavors, all complementing each other and none overpowering. The squid-ink pasta with the recommended white sauce was very good as well with the appropriate hint of sea salt coming through. Overall, both visits were attended to by wait staff that knew their business and the menu well. The recommendations were spot on.

I loved the intimate atmosphere and its proximity to the Wharf. I stumbled upon this place by accident after a long walk from the old bay. The service was excellent—attentive and quick without being intrusive. The food was rich and fresh, with the black linguini standing out, and we also ordered the lobster pan with a whole lobster and pasta. Honestly, I wish D.C. had food like this. It was pricey (it is Boston), but absolutely worth it.

We went to Boston for a bachelorette trip, and made last minute reservations for 10 people. We couldn’t have made a better decision than picking this restaurant!! The food was perfect - we ordered multiple apps, entrees, and desserts and everything tasted delicious. PJ was our waiter, and he made it an unforgettable experience for us. He gave us the best service, made sure everyone was having fun, and even had the owner come out to meet us and take pictures with us. The restaurant was beautiful as well!! Couldn’t recommended it enough and make sure to ask for PJ!!

Had a nice dinner here tonight. The patio is very clean and beautiful. The staff were attentive and humorous. I enjoyed the uniqueness of the calamari meatballs, and the broccoli along with the clam chowder were above average. I do not recommend the squid pasta. Next time I would stick to only seafood.

It is a good place. The food was good in terms of flavor, slightly oily and salty in my opinion; maybe less pasta would be better to have more balance in the plate. The dessert was delicious! The staff is very nice.

Not recommended! Too much expensive for the provided food. We ordered lobster fra diavolo. The noodles sucks and like my grandma cooked. The lobster is fresh but too small. They suggested 20+% tips and who gave them the confidence?

Fantastic food in a beautiful restaurant! They're doing a holiday menu right now (seven fishes) which we really enjoyed. I know people who swear up and down that the North End location is better. We've been to both and both are excellent. Give this place a try!

Cool spot. Attentive, kept the Fleet game on, cool atmosphere. We got oysters and octopus, a great combo. And two mocktails! The bartender was very kind and split it for us into two glasses. All in all it was excellent. Just the right amount of food, quick and easy. I look forward to dining there again!

A Must-Try Boston Gem! The Squid Ink Pasta is Legendary If you're looking for authentic, flavor-packed seafood in Boston, The Daily Catch is the real deal. This place nails the Sicilian vibe, serving up some of the freshest catch around. The absolute star of the show for me is the Squid Ink Pasta (Aglio Olio). It's decadent, garlicky, and perfectly briny ... truly one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had. A total game-changer. The best part about dining here is that the food literally arrives at your table sizzling hot in the pan it was cooked in. It's a fun, rustic touch that adds to the whole experience and keeps your meal warm down to the last bite. The atmosphere in the North End location is cozy and buzzing with energy. Be prepared for a potential wait and know your meal will be delicious, the seafood is incredibly fresh, and the flavors are absolutely perfect.

I have been to the Hanover St. location several times before but it was my first time here. We came here with Hana (our chihuahua mix baby) and were allowed to eat inside. This was a pleasant surprise. Although Hana barked at the server every time she talked to us, the server and staff were very nice to us. Much more spacious here than the North End location. For the food, my aglio olio squid ink pasta served in a frying pan was bunched up and I had to fluff it up to eat. Also it was lacking flavor. My wife's porcini risotto was kind of watery and not creamy. I did not taste porcini either. The best item was the clam chowder. Next time I will try the North End location instead.

This is my favorite North End restaurant by far!! The pasta dishes are always a hit and this location has so much more seating than the other one, plus plenty of cute outdoor tables in the summer. Truly every dish here is a standout; you literally can't go wrong with ordering anything on the menu. The calamari is a must order - perfectly crispy and pairs amazingly with the sauce. The squid ink pasta and shrimp scampi are also so delicious. Make sure to add lots of cheese! Staff here is super accommodating and always provides great service.

Probably my favorite meal in Boston during our 4th of July trip. The Daily Catch has a location in North End as well but this one definitely less chaotic and away from the masses. There was a small wait even with a reservation, but we happily had a drink at the lively bar during this time. The service was really great. We loved our waiter who was not only attentive, but had a great sense of humor. I don't know why they have to have pepper grinders that are 4 feet long but that led to a bunch of innuendo jokes with our waiter, if you know what I mean... haha. He was a good sport about it. I would highly recommend any of the seafood pastas here! Can't wait to come back in the future.

Loved the lobster fra Diavlo and the scallop linguine here. We came here for lunch and luckily didn't have to wait too much. The seafood is fresh and elections. The oysters were amazing too. Absolutely amazing service ! We sat outdoors because it was a nice day out.

My mom had called in advance to seemingly reserve a table but we missed the 15 minute cutoff. Luckily they still had tables outside on the heated patio so we braved the windy & cold weather because we were all so hungry!! The menu's pretty straightforward but I'm ngl I had a hard time deciding. I ended up choosing the monkfish marsala because I KNOW mushroom/wine/cream combo eats every time. The bread came slightly cold, not even room temperature but it didn't taste bad at all. In fact despite looking like my least favorite kind of bread service I eventually had several pieces. Our food came together so it was a long wait between ordering and getting to chow down. The portions were not intimidating at all! There should have been a lot more pasta in the signature lobster dish, but better a little taste than nothing. The squid ink cacio e pepe was *chefs kiss* but very greasy. The sauteed garlic lost their pungence so were very chewy. My dish was pleasant but had a flavor I wasn't expecting. Overall, seems like a lovely place for both locals and visitors alike but leans touristy. Reminds me of a restaurant we ate at on Pier 39 in SF.

The food was bright and fresh. We especially loved the mussel dish and soaked up the sauce with the bread that they give us. The gnocchi was ok, less like pasta and more like soft potatoes. Our servers were attentive and friendly, offering recommendations on what is most popular. We were seated outside with enough space and heaters around since it was cold outside.

One of my favorite restaurants in Boston, The Daily Catch has the BEST squid ink pasta and other great options that keep me coming back for more. To start, the service was phenomenal. Our waitress was super friendly and checked in regularly without being overbearing and gave great recommendations. There were two other waiters who were also available and happy to help when needed. The dim lighting makes for great ambiance! I sat out in the patio tonight and was pleasantly surprised by the subtle but effective ceiling heaters that kept my table warm through the low 50s weather. Food: -Squid Ink Aglio Olio: 10/10! Always my go-to and must-have dish here. There are generous amounts of chopped calamari to balance the perfectly chewy noodles. -Fried Calamari: 9/10! More on the soft side than crispy side, but not in an unpleasant way. Sauce comes out HOT, which is a nice touch. We asked our waitress for more sauce midway and she gladly brought out another cup. -Fruitti di Mare: 9/10! Had a good number of clams, mussels, and scallops. Noodles were nice and thin. Dessert: -Tiramisu: 10/10! The shaved chocolate on the top made all the difference. The texture was the perfect blend of gritty chocolate bits and soft, slightly cakey cream. Not too sweet. -Chocolate Mousse: 9/10! Was on the heavier, thicker side but in a pleasant way. Rich chocolate flavor. Fruit could have been sweeter. -Crème Brûlée: 9/10! Not sure how to describe the consistency, but this was one of the breadiest(?) crème brûlées I've ever had, and I enjoyed it. Was a nice change from the typical silky smooth crème brûlées I've had. Fruit could have been sweeter.

If you are in the neighborhood and looking for seafood with a nod to Italian cuisine you found your place. The food, service and ambiance are local and unfussy. Great place for a casual meal with your friends.

We came here for drinks before getting some mid day food across the street from the waterfront. I had read a lot about it and seen people post about this spot on social. We decided to grab a seat at the bar which was pretty busy and small in terms of the amount of seats the bar had. We kept seeing peoples food coming and everything smelled so good but we were waiting for a table somewhere else. We each enjoyed a drink and had a great time. I would love to come back for dinner on our next trip out.

I love Daily Catch! It's a must go when I'm in Boston and a great place to take visitors who want to eat a quintessential Italian seafood pasta. The Waterfront location is great as they take reservations and accept credit cards, making it easy to plan ahead. The star of the show here is the Lobster Fra Diavolo and for 4 people we ordered the 2 person person which ended up being perfect for sharing along with the Aglio Olio Black Pasta and half a dozen oysters. The lobster pasta is super flavorful with large pieces of shrimp, calamari, mussels, clams and of course a large lobster. The seafood is cooked to perfection and the sauce nice and rich with a spicy kick. The housemade squid ink pasta is great too but on the heavier side. Love the chopped squid that they mix in and overall with the combination of the red sauce lobster pasta and olive oil black pasta, it's a great way to try the best that the Daily Catch has to offer.

After having The Daily Catch on my radar for about a year and a half, I finally made it in for a weekend midday visit. I was genuinely excited--especially because I was seated immediately and even got the exact spot I wanted. A strong start, right? The menu offered plenty of tempting choices, and I landed on the shrimp scampi. I paired it with a strawberry-flavored mocktail (can't remember the name, but it was refreshing) and finished the meal with an espresso that was bold enough to practically stand on its own. Definitely required cream and sugar to soften the intensity. I enjoyed the bread service--the DIY mix of oil, paprika, and cheese was a nice touch--even if the bread itself wasn't particularly memorable. Flavor-wise, it didn't bring much to the table, though the concept was fun. The shrimp scampi, though, is where things fell short for me. The flavor was just okay, but what really stood out was how surprisingly dry it was. I expected a silky, garlicky, buttery sauce that clings to the shrimp and pasta, but instead it lacked that moisture and richness that make a scampi feel indulgent. It wasn't drippy, glossy, or saucy enough to deliver that classic scampi experience, and the dish ended up feeling a bit flat overall. I knew going in that the menu was on the pricier side, so the cost didn't shock me--but the taste compared to the price didn't quite meet my expectations. After anticipating this place for so long, I'm glad I finally got to try it... but I also didn't walk out feeling like I'd missed out all this time. I probably wouldn't return, though I know plenty of people love this spot.

Decided to come to The Daily Catch as it was another one of Boston's lobster spots. Also came with a personal recommendation as it was our friend's favorite restaurant when she lived in Boston. Since all I cared about was lobster, my decision was very easy. Ordered a 2 person Lobster Fra Diavolo. This was great! Loaded with seafood and one whole lobster, plus a ton of linguine with a tasty tomato sauce. Absolutely hit the spot. Service was fine here, no complaints. Worth the visit for sure, would come back.

I first came here years ago and have been dreaming about coming back ever since. Did not disappoint! For starters - make a reservation otherwise prepare to wait for about an hour. We got lucky and only had to wait 30 minutes. No brainer, we got the squid ink pasta. Served in the frying pan which made the meal that much more fun and probably taste that much better. I got the garlic and calamari and it was way more calamari than I expected which was a really nice surprise. We kept it simple, stuck to just the pasta and all of it was delicious. If/when we get the chance to come back again, i'll for sure try a bunch of other things. The food was delicious, i wish the portions were just slightly bigger but i'd still come back. Everyone was very friendly, clean, and patient. The food did take a big long to come out but the views were gorgeous and I knew I'd be in for such a treat when the food finally arrived.

I was traveling to Boston for a week and this restaurant came highly recommended. I decided to make a reservation for a Sunday night at 8pm. I had an amazing dinner with my dinner. We had the Alfredo linguine and their black squid ink pasta. I had a pumpkin spice espresso martini and it was delicious. They were a full house but service was still pretty attentive. They did upcharge us for changing the squid ink pasta to linguine, when you would think that would minus from the bill, but whatever, it was still a delicious dinner. We had such a great dinner we booked it again for another dinner for a couple nights into our vacation week in Boston. This time we came on a weekday and the restaurant was not busy. We sat our table for 20 minutes before being greeted by our server. He took our order and we did not see him again until the end of the night when we got the bill. The food was still good but a huge turn off when the service is that slow and inattentive.

We had such a great lunch at The Daily Catch Waterfront. The linguine with clams and calamari in white sauce was so good fresh seafood and the pasta had so much flavor. The baked haddock was perfectly cooked, flaky and not heavy at all, and the asparagus was simple but really well done. Both meals were huge portions! Also the Arnold Palmers were perfect. On top of all that, our server was so friendly and made the experience even better. He mentioned that he was fairly new to working there but I would've never known because he seemed like a pro!! The outdoor area is great on a beautiful day.

This was a restaurant that we ended up eating at because there was a 45 minute wait at our restaurant of choice that didn't take reservations. Unfortunately we had a time restriction so we just went with it. We were seated promptly and the restaurant was packed. Overall the service was really good. The big problem however, was that the food prep could have been better. For starters, we had the fried calamari. The quantity was good but it lacked crispiness. The color was good so I'm not sure if it had to do with the batter/coating. I had the fish and chips and it was the same. It was seasoned well but the coating wasn't great. The black pasta aglio oliio was way overly garlicky. I'm not sure how many cloves were used but it was a lot. Also, it could have used a bit more cooking. It was almost raw garlic and had that "spicy" taste to it. The pasta itself was perfectly aldente. Stepping back a bit we also had the octopus appetizer. It was probably the best thing on the table although it needed a bit more char.

I usually don't enjoy seafood restaurants this much, but this place wowed me!! We came here with a last minute reservation and were seated very easily. The restaurant was bustling during lunchtime and the bar was full as well. Our server was quick to take orders and food came in a timely manner. First off, the clam chowder was very possibly the best one I've had in Boston! I really enjoyed how fresh and light it tasted, along with the two puffs it came with. The calamari was also delicious, nothing too special, just very well fried! The two pastas we tried were amazing and each delicious in their own way. My favorite one would have to the the squid ink one, it was creamy, salty, basically just the right amount of everything. Overall, we loved our lunch here and will be craving their clam chowder all the time! I highly recommend you drop in if you're hanging out by the waterfront!

Food was delicious and super fresh. They catch their seafood the same day since this location is right by the water. Calamari was cooked perfectly tender not rubbery. Was even better with tartar sauce. Shrimp was super tender and the garlic sauce was so good you have to dip your table bread into it! Fish and chips were cooked perfectly tender the fries were crispy on the outside and incredibly fluffy on the inside with the right amount of salt. Service was also great our waiter was very accommodating and had good conversation. The space was a good size not crowded and did not feel tight even though it was not that large of a space. The dim lighting made it a great date night vibe.

Awful Service!!!! Racist place!!! Food was not good and we spent about $475. The hostesses watched us (black folks) put money in the parking meter and a Spanish family put money in the meter...Right in front of the restaurant and both families got a $65 ticket. IT SEEMS THIS RESTAURANT WORKS WITH THE CITY OF BOSTON!!! They didn't warn us not to park there!!! Husband and I came from Florida to enjoy time with our grandchildren and this restaurant discriminated against us. Told us we can dine but have to be out by 8pm. Well at 8pm the restaurant was almost empty. The clam chowder was awful; they didn't even ask if I wanted something else!! Had no problem taking our $478. I am going to slam them anyway I can!! I want a full refund!!!

Nice little restaurant in/near the Boston north end on the waterfront. Italian and fish. Food is a decent price but the wine is way over priced. Service was long, but good. I do recommend the squid ink pasta with their white sauce, which is effectively olive oil, white wine and garlic - on top of which you can add a protein, like scallops or shrimp or clams, or all of the above. Also, get the garlic bread with dinner. Reservations are recommended,

My wife and I celebrated our 11th anniversary last night. We started off with a seafood tower, which was incredible. Then we had twin lobsters in their famous lobster friablo. Great service looking forward to our next visit.

We were recommended The Daily Catch by a local and could not recommend it more! From the moment we arrived, the hosts set the tone--kind, funny, and genuinely happy to be there. Their energy made us feel instantly welcomed. We were seated in the best spot on the patio, overlooking the bay--a perfect backdrop for what turned into one of our favorite meals in Boston. The drinks were spot-on, and the gnocchi starter is absolutely worth your time (tip: get bread with it!). But the first real star of the night was the clam chowder--hands down one of the best I've ever had. And we're from the Pacific Northwest, so we eat a lot of chowder. Then came the squid ink pasta...wow. Served sizzling in the pan, it was decadent, perfectly sauced, and truly unforgettable. Every staff member we interacted with was wonderful, but one person in particular elevated the experience. The newly hired restaurant manager (his name starts with M!) radiated passion for the restaurant, shared local knowledge, and guided us to the perfect wine with such clarity and enthusiasm. He even surprised us with espresso martinis to close out the night--an amazing touch. This place doesn't just serve incredible food--it feels like a celebration of culture, community, and joy. We'll absolutely be back.

I love The Daily Catch! I visited the original store in Boston's North End long time ago, yet still remembers its name and wants to visit every time I am back in Boston! I didn't know how they opened other stores and are doing very well! We made the reservation for Sunday lunch and really enjoyed the beautiful seaport view. The restaurant is beautiful. Has a large outdoor heated patio space, a bar, and inside tables. We sat inside but could still feel the air blowing through and really enjoyed the breeze. The menu is now printed nicely and has more items than before. We went for their classic clams linguine and squid ink pasta! We added some appetizers, stuffed squids, grilled octopus, and oysters. They are all amazing! The flavors are excellent. I wasn't sure about how the stuffed squids would taste, but I was pleasantly surprised. The pastas were delicious and full of flavors like how I remembered. I would recommend the squid pasta in red sauce or add other seafood proteins. I will come back again and try their amazing lobster pasta next time! One thing I enjoyed the most is seeing their tradition of serving the pasta family style in the cooking pan! I am so happy seeing them doing well and I will come back next time!

We always come here when in Boston and so conveniently located next to Mikes Bakery! We love the homemade black pasta and swordfish to die for

A friend recommended this place, so I was kind of excited when coming here, but the food and service is just really disappointing. The octopus is very bland. On the other hand, risotto and the fish are extremely salty. I don't know how can they be too salty like that. The only good part of the risotto is the lemon pieces. And the server told me the chef said sorry, lol that's it. With the price they charged me and the fact that I couldn't finish these food (I tried to as much as I could bc I didn't want to waste money cuz of how expensive they are) and they didn't do anything besides "the chef said sorry," I would never come back here.

Ordered and ate loads here! The pistachio martini was my fave. Never really had anything like it elsewhere. The food was nice and solid, lots of garlic - in a good way. Seafood tasted fresh. Service was great, the staff were friendly. We ordered a dessert and they put a candle in it as I had given them a heads up that it was my friend's birthday.

Daily Catch is always a must-go restaurant when I have friends and family in town. Love that this location accepts reservations! Come here if you are looking for great food with pretty decent portions.

Very small place. Get there early. Jimmy, the chef, was cooking like a pro! Waiter and Jimmy was very nice. Good food. Enjoyed it. Also, they only take CASH, just a heads up.

We came to celebrate a friend's birthday pre-ragnar race as a group of 7 and the pastas and seafood were fresh and tasty. We ordered all theee types of the squid inj pasta, seafood platters and lobsters. The food was satisfying and just what I expect from Boston

A Memorable Birthday Celebration at Daily Catch Boston! We celebrated our son's birthday at Daily Catch Boston last month and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. We are from out of town visiting him as he goes to school in the city. The ambience was cozy and nice atmosphere. Our server Omar was knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations that pleased everyone at the table. Every dish was prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients and full of rich, authentic flavors. The black pasta aglio olio, a Daily Catch signature, was a standout, and the calamari was among the best we've ever had. To top it all off, they surprised our son with a birthday dessert, complete with a candle and a cheer from the staff. It was such a thoughtful gesture that truly made him feel celebrated. Daily Catch Boston gave us a night to remember, filled with laughter, amazing food, and heartfelt hospitality. We're so grateful for the experience and can't wait to return. Highly recommend for any special occasion--or just a fantastic meal out! Thank you to Omar & excellent staff. We will surely visit the other daily catch location at north end as well.

It's a modern restaurant with warm and thoughtful decor of wood beams, clam shell wall lights, and rustic floors. The nice ambiance of the restaurant with a large outdoor seating area is almost always full. This intrigued us to visit for a quick lunch. The clam chowder is not as rich in flavor as the place across the street - lacked the depth and heartiness. The scallops were small and overloaded with oily crumbs though not overly seasoned so retained their sweetness and the pleasant flavor. The fried halibut was well prepared and flavorful with the crust complimenting nicely to the flavor profile; the sauce, despite being heavy, complimented the fish well. The incredible disappointment was the decision to dip the bread into the olive oil. Despite its fantastic fresh glow was completely rancid and bitter. All of the pleasant flavors of the meal were entirely overpowered and lingered! Our waitress was notified. Instead of removing the oil container, she suggested that I wash the taste down with coffee and dessert. No suggestion to make anything gratis. Upon leaving, we notified the manager to the issue with the oil. It took good 10-15 minutes to get the awful taste out of my mouth. It can be a decent place to spend the time - No matter what you do, don't touch the olive oil.

Dinner for my work crew while up in Boston. It was busy but the four of us got seats at the bar and were well taken care of by the bartenders. Great craft draft selection, outstanding menu and specials. I had the Monkfish Marsala over siding pasta. It was absolutely outstanding. Others in my group had the mussels marinara and fish and chips. A few appetizers of shrimp scampi and crab cakes. Everyone loved their meals. By the time we left around 7:30 it was packed. Great food, good atmosphere and great service. All the boxes checked.

We have very mixed feelings after our visit - We really wanted to love dining here, based on the amazing menu, pics we saw online from those who dined here before, and it's a combo of fresh seafood and Italian - But unfortunately, our visit wasn't that great. First, we got there, sat down and wanted to order wine to enjoy while reviewing the menu, but we waited 10 mins with no one to check in/great us, so when I saw a manager nearby I asked him for some assistance and then our server appeared a minute later. He was very friendly, not sure what happened in the beginning, but we overlooked that as we proceeded with dinner. We started with their shrimp scampi and wow, that was the blandest shrimp scampi we've ever had! We had to add salt to get some sot of flavor from it, but it hardly had the flavors that make it a loveable dish - such as garlic and lemon... We didn't taste these at all and for the price, it wasn't very appetizing looking and flavorless - Definitely wouldn't recommend. The entrées we ordered were their swordfish for her and I got their linguine with scallops, shrimp, and broccoli. My linguine dish was very bland as well... not sure what was going on here, but no garlic, no seasonings at all, and I asked for their diavolo sauce and what I got had no heat either. Wife's sowrfish was totally raw inside. We showed this to the server and he told us it looked like that because this is the season where they get "orange swordfish" but what we were showing was a very obviously piece of raw fish. He took it back and brought it back to us about 15 mins later cooked to a greater temperature. He agreed that once he got it in the kitchen, he noticed it was raw. But you NEVER HEAT AND RESERVE a food item touched by the customer - that's gross. As a result, she barely picked at it and it was simply wasted. Poor service! When someone sends back raw food which they've already cut into, time to toss it and serve a new one - especially when it's the kitchen's fault. Talk about cross contamination. Anyway - we had a very lackluster visit, which was sad, as we expected to much more from this visit. We love Boston and will be back to visit one of the amazingly incredible restaurants that are there, but this won't be on our list.

The Daily Catch is a Boston institution, and this Waterfront location is a great way to experience their famous cuisine without waiting in long lines! They take reservations here, and they have nice indoor and outdoor seating areas. Whenever I have friends visiting Boston, I recommend the Daily Catch to them. It's a uniquely Boston experience, with food that you really can't find at any other restaurant. I always go for one of their pastas served in the frying pan. Typically I'll opt for their signature dish, the black pasta aglio olio. It's got ground calamari and has been called the "white bolognese." You really can't find it anywhere else. Don't miss their littlenecks Siciliano to start, served up in a flavorful fennel and white wine broth. Perfect for sopping up with some of their fresh Italian bread! Whether you're visiting Boston or live down the street, I can't recommend The Daily Catch enough!

A great atmosphere coupled with fantastic seafood is what makes this roomier version of their North End spot so wonderful. We came here on a whim for a date night and sat at the bar! Our service was spectacular, very informative, and attentive. We got oysters, a few drinks, squid ink pasta, and swordfish and loved all of it. Their food is certainly rich, but it's well cooked and lets the seafood speak for itself in flavor. Overall - we'll be back here again ! Loved it!

Absolutely fantastic food and service! The owner became aware that I wanted a lobster roll which happens to be on menu at another locations. He literally went to the other location brought us the 2 butter lobster rolls which were absolutely delicious! Above and beyond service for a 5 star lobster roll. Thank you!!!

This location is right by the harbor with both indoor and outdoor seating. They take reservations have more seating than the Hanover street location. We tried the raw bar sampler and the oysters and little necks were great. Their black pasta is a must try. The fried seafood was good but not that special

Had a good experience here recently. Really good seafood and some great service. A little pricey, but would definitely return.

If you love seafood this is a must. I was equally impressed by every dish we tried. The restaurant is intimate with low lighting a very nice vibe for date night. Our waiter was amazing! He gave us food recommendations and was so friendly. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back! The aglio e olio pasta is as great as everyone says! The baked halibut is also chefs kiss.

Great service, friendly staff, good beer selection and great clam chowder. Popular and family friendly.

Save yourself from disappointment and walk 0.2 miles to the North End location. Although this location is far more spacious with an outdoor patio area, I think the food is better at the original North End location. I got my favorite dish which was the Aglio Olio. They didn't offer half sizes like they do at the North End location so I got the full size ($29.50). It came out quickly, but it was underwhelming. The pasta was cooked well, but the calamari was under-cooked and not crispy. Most importantly, the overall dish didn't have the strong garlicky flavors that I'd obsess over every time I'd have this dish. I'd definitely go back to the original location next time. It's small but I'd choose better food over ambiance any day.

First time In Boston and tried this place out. The server PJ was very friendly and on top of his game. The hostess was also very friendly. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food around us but I wasn't impressed with my order. The halibut was very dry and would not order it again. The bread is delicious and the vibe is upbeat. Next time I would order something else. Worth revisiting.

Tried going to a restaurant across the street but the wait was an hour so we walked in here instead because there didn't seem to be a wait. It wasn't empty but we also were seated right away so it could have gone either way at that point. Service was friendly and reasonably quick. We ordered the grilled calamari since this place seemed popular for calamari, it did not disappoint. It was nice and tasty, not too chewy. Good portion for an app. Then individually we ordered the fish and chips and mussels marinara. The food was tasty and filling, not the absolute best we've ever eaten but it satisfied us and we were happy. It's definitely a bit on the pricier side for a casual meal. The total of those three dishes plus a gin and tonic came out to $98 before tip. But no regrets, it hit the spot.

This was one of my favorite meals ever! Visiting from Philly to Boston, so I spent a lot of time researching where to go before I landed on The Daily Catch. Reservations needed and they had outside and inside seating. We sat inside and it was the perfect vibe for a birthday dinner. Our server PJ was great! He had lots of recommendations and was patient if we had any questions even though the restaurant was super busy. The oysters were my favorite appetizer, the calamari meatballs were a little different but the sauce that came with it was the best thing ever for dipping your bread in. Would recommend visiting the waterfront location!!

I really love this location because of the open patio. Their oysters and pasta dishes are always amazing. I always get the Aglio Olio and the Mussels Marinara. The staff are always friendly and the service is fast. Can't wait to try more of their pasta dishes.

Delicious seafood experience! We were able to reserve a table for lunch. We are big seafood lovers, so this place was perfect. My wife and I loved the calamari, very crispy and perfectly seasoned! The clams and lobster was delicous! All the seafood was fresh, I would love to come back again once I'm in Boston!

Not to be confused with the daily catch on Hanover. This place is a gem. The two lady bartenders gave us some history on the establishment as well as the family. They were the awesome Has the pistachio martini (minus the gelato because I didn't want it to be too rich) food was fresh and had more of a modern flair than other places in the north end. Please get the tomato salad. You will not be disappointed. Sad I didn't find this place sooner. Also had the halibut. Very mild and delicious.
