Take it from someone who doesn’t care much for seafood or boiled food. I like my food grilled, fried, sautéed and sometimes baked is fine.
But I like dining out and restaurant adventures. So, I thought to check out Grand Catch!
First thing first, the place looked nice from outside, and as we stepped in it was even nicer inside. Just a touch on the darker side for ambience, but the moderate noise level along with the upbeat music keeps the energy going.
The service was just the right combination of professional and friendly. The hostess was great, the server was awesome, and one of the owners (Saed Wadi) came to our table; now he’s something else; in moments you will realize that he is naturally a people’s person. He took care of us as if we were guests at his house. The place was full, but the staff was so confident and adept that my party and I felt like we were their only guests. This was during their first week of opening.
My concern about the food turned into a confusion after I tried a bite of everything we ordered. I was confused cause I wanted to eat everything simultaneously, this is how incredibly delicious every item was! The chicken wings were amazing (especially with its dressing). The muscles and shrimps were absolutely the best they can be because the sauce they come in or with makes a whole world of difference. Portions were large and I’m glad I was super hungry...we ate EVERYTHING. Interestingly, we didn’t feel overly full and can’t move. Maybe the absence of rice, pasta..etc is the reason for this goodness. I wanted to go there the next day.
Note: don’t take their toast for granted...I never had toast like this before.
Grand Catch, thank you for a wonderful evening �
See you again and again �

We celebrated a birthday dinner here and were beyond satisfied! We really appreciated the laid-back-yet-special atmosphere that allowed us to celebrate a special occasion comfortably, yet without sacrificing quality or "wow" factor! Come one, come all - we brought our decently well-behaved 2-year-old and that was totally appropriate too!
As far as starters go, we loved the fried shrimp; light, but flavorful batter and a surprisingly delicious dipping sauce that had a playful kick. Our party of three adults opted for 3lbs of boil in medium awesome sauce, medium heat, and we kinda wanted to bathe in the sauce after dinner! It was that good. It made even the corn drip in gooey, garlicky wonder. And I really didn't think I'd be commenting about the softness of the boiled potatoes, but damn! We were pleased, surprised and surpassed by everything we tried. Definitely coming back to try more of the menu!
Grand Catch adds perfectly to the Mac-Groveland Neighborhood without taking away from it. It's just the kind of excitement and seafood the Twin Cities needs!
Food was amazing! Crab boil with awesome sauce, fried shrimp and cajun fries. Everything was so incredibly flavorful, and the drinks were some of the best I have ever had! Definitely recommend “Don’t pet the dog?” And “Naked horseback ride”. The Milk Jam and raspberry lychee twist soft serve was an amazing end to our meal. Service was great and always on top of our needs. Will recommend to everyone and will be back again soon!
