We've eaten fish tacos from Maui to Miami, and these were by far the best ever. Huge serving - 3 great big tacos. Large chunks of assorted fresh fish, delicious homemade salsa with just the right amount of cilantro, and the sauce....delightful! Can't wait to go back next time. Check out the photos. Al & Kathy

The "Catch" is closed now for the season, but thought I would update a previous review from last year. We live in Wellfleet and since this nice restaurant has been open, we have been there at least 30 times and sent many friends. But something happened for the 2012 season....the portion size decreased significantly and the prices went up too... More

I love this place! The year they opened we were staying on Lieutenant Island, so they were gloriously close by and even steamed our lobsters for us so we could race them back to the house to eat them. I hate killing the lobsters myself. Their clam chowder is outstanding. When we are cooking at home we always go here... More

Superb fresh food, simply prepared, in a great atmosphere. Try to sit out at the back if you can get a spot there. Fabulous deserts, too!

We had lunch here recently (first time). We were excited as we love Cajun style/blackened swordfish. We were terriby disappointed. It was not like any Cajun style we have had in other places. I will say that the people serving us were very friendly.

Don't miss out on the off-season specials. Catch of the Day has the freshest seafood and offers half price buckets of clams. They also carry delicious local artisan bread.

Have passed this place many times over the years but never stopped in until yesterday while traveling with a couple familiar with Wellfleet. Unassuming exterior, and interior, but comfortable and clean. Menu was the big surprise. I expected a clam shack/fish shack type menu of all fried, but it's much more than that. LOVED the shellfish sampler! I could have... More

Cute, but small. This place was fun and great for kids. My son had a delicious grilled cheese. I had a bucket of muscles and clams that was amazing and clam chowder to die for. My husband had fish tacos that were "slap your mother" good. We bought a scone on the way out that wasn't great. It was moldy... More

This small roadside restaurant is a decent little place to stop. The prices are about the same everywhere on the cape so we now need to judge on taste. I had a lobster roll and my wife had a spinach salad. Both of these were ordered up to go. We were going to go to the beach across the hwy... More

Dessert first: The blueberry bread pudding is made in house and is the best bread pudding I have ever eaten. Served warm and moise, covered with a scrumptious caramel sauce. Lobster roll was fresh, crunchy with just the right taste of may to hold it all together. French fries were crisp and fresh, light, not greasy. And no need to... More
