Testimonials for Catalina Rose Bay

Dear Kate,

Thank you so much – it was perfect in every way.

I’d enjoyed CATALINA at work lunches so when Elise said she wanted to hold the wedding there I knew the food and views were epic, but couldn’t quite imagine that level of romance. The venue was a dream – knock-out impressive without being gaudy, opulent yet also intimate. The food seriously wowed everyone, including some very judgy internationals, and the wine list was on-point.

It was at absolute pleasure working with you over the last month. And on the night - Giovanni and his team managed everything to a tee – couldn’t commend them highly enough. Obviously we’ll be recommending 😊

CATALINA will sit as a jewel in our heart and we can’t wait to come back. Look forward to seeing members of the team then.

Thanks again, Elise and James

Hello Kate,

I just wanted to thank you very much for making my special day so very very special. As usual, the food was excellent and the service exceptional.  Please pass on my thanks to all the staff involved – both front of house and in the kitchen. I also wanted to thank you for accommodating me with regards to the flowers and the birthday cake.  

You and your family run a fantastic restaurant and I am always so very happy when I visit.  You should be very proud of being involved with such a wonderful institution.  Despite what we are going through at the moment in terms of restrictions, I hope that you remain successful for many years to come.

Many thanks again Kate and I wish you and your family well and look forward to the next time. Kristina x

We loved the travelling entrée and the menu chosen for main courses and desserts. The wines also were superb. Your experience and consideration was greatly appreciated and gave the delighted couple great confidence. 
Please thank Kate profusely for her special direction and detailed oversight of all aspects of the function.
