Some nice dishes 1/14/2008

The atmosphere of Daily Catch is not that great given the price you have to pay. It seems a bit dirty and over-crowded. However, there are two dishes really caught my eyes, i.e. the black pasta and monk fish. I think for regular pasta, you can get them elsewhere or cook it on your own. But, for black pasta, it's a must try. It's best with lighter sauce, such as garlic olive oil or pesto, not alfedro or marina. The monk fish was delicious. Pros: Black pasta Cons: pricey for the atmosphere more

Pretty disappointing 5/23/2007

Very standard food that you could easily make yourself. Pasta with seafood and generic red or white sauce. Or just plain seafood with generic red or white sauce. Service is very bad for such a small restaurant. And we were there when it was practically empty. Prices are very expensive and only cash is accepted. I would suggest avoiding this place. more

SADLY DIAPPOINTING - Been sitting on its laurels for far too long 9/14/2006

We went to the Daily Catch based on glowing reviews and were SADLY DISAPPOINTED. The Squid Scampi is ok but the squid seems not so fresh. The mussels in marinara sauce over pasta was the worst that we've ever had at any restaurant. The mussels were small, overly cooked and tasteless - probably previously frozen. Their marinara sauce was so bland. Even a jar of Ragu was superior! The wine was also questionable. $8 in a paper cup! What a rip-off! Pros: At the touristy North End, convenient location Cons: Mediocre food and surly staff more

Real Italian Seafood 8/15/2006

This is a real, honest-to-goodness open kitchen Italian seafood place in the classic North End tradition. No hoity-toity attitudes here, just delicious fish and seafood, fresh from the sea, served up piping hot. The Monkfish Marsala is my favorite-- the owner told me he invented it for his wife years ago when they were newlyweds! No wonder there's almost always a line to get in. Pros: Great food, fun atmosphere. A real North End experience. Cons: Sometimes you have to wait in line to get a table. more

my favorite restaurant 4/23/2003

The Daily Catch is my favorite restaurant in Boston and I'm a chef! I love the seafood fra diavolo and Mr. Lee's tuna special, not to mention the obvious fried calamari, squid ink pasta and stuffed calamari over linguine. After spending two years in Alaska, the Daily Catch was my restaurant of choice the evening I landed at Logan airport. Pros: fabulous food Cons: parking more

YUM! YUM! 9/24/2002

My date and I had a wonderful time at the Daily Catch. I loved eating out of the skillet! The atmosphere just promotes fun. We joined in conversations with fellow diners as well as the chef. The mussles I had were fresh and sweet. His calimari was out of this world. We'll be going back soon! more

My favorite!! 8/28/2002

I really miss the store on Northern Ave, it was my favorite ... but I love the food! The Saugus location is good, but way to quiet. I don't get to the North End much now that I have young kids. I absolutely LOVE the Swordfish Vinaigrette and the Monkfish Marsala. To fully enjoy the dish, ask for it served OVER pasta instead of with a side of pasta. Pros: Great food, interesting atmostpph Cons: bit expensive more

Kind of kitschy 7/25/2002

When's the last time you ate your seafood out of a frying pan? It's cute, kind of kitschy. The prices are up there, but not too steep. We opted to split a salad and an entree, which worked out perfectly portion-wise. Their open kitchen makes for fun dining. Cons: Small space more
