    Food and location are great. Been there multiple times before. Unfortunately on this occasion our meals took more than an hour to arrive, and the 2 of us only ordered a salad and a fish dish, so that was disappointing, but overall it was good.

    One of the great vistas in the world is seen from Cafe Catalina - the Southport Broadwater. The food was excellently cooked and the service friendly. Finished off with tiramisu all round.

    I was very disappointed as I have been to Catalina many times. I was hosting international students. The wait was too long and the food lukewarm
