Catalan Mediterranean Restaurant - Mediterranean restaurant in Rancho Mirage - 70026 CA-111, USA

We went here on Thanksgiving. We hadn’t made a reservation beforehand, and when we got there, we got a table for two almost immediately. I came for their scallop, but unfortunately, they only had a prix fixe menu on Thanksgiving. I had a good impression of the charred octopus. Other than that, the rest was quite mediocre. Service was not bad, but they were very hectic that night, so we could only sit and eye on our starters and wait for a set of utensils for around 20 minutes. The restaurant atmosphere was great. Parking was easy.

Came for Christmas dinner, and they only have premix menu, which is fine. But the one we wanted is no longer available. So we got the fried chicken liver for everyone, and it tasted horrible. The wedge also tasted disgusted. The paella is super wet, I got the ribeye, which is also overcooked and they changed the golden potatoes to asparagus without letting me know. Everything took forever as well. I won't come back, and highly do not recommend it.

Just a nice place to go. Friendly, attentive. Food was very well presented and prepared. Be adventurous and order something new or special. Both these dishes, bone marrow and charred octopus were fantastic.

Took a risk and went somewhere different for date night. So glad we did! The food is fabulous. The atmosphere in the atrium is very romantic.

Came across this restaurant recently over Yelp and made the decision to come here for dinner. Definitely not disappointed in the choice either! Food was exceptional and perfectly cooked. Will be eating here again.

Good food. Not really Spanish as the name would suggest, but more pan-Mediterranean. Went for dinner with friends. The place was very busy, but the noise level was still low enough for relaxed conversation. Had the octopus appetizer, which was good, but not the best I've had here in the Valley. The lamb chops were spectacular. Perfectly cooked and juicy and delicious. The black spaghetti with rock shrimp had a wonderful sauce, but the pasta was slightly over cooked. I had a very delicious rice pudding for dessert. The Spanish Albarino wine was a perfect accompaniment to the meal. My only real complaint was the valet parking. I felt it was totally unnecessary. After dinner, I waited almost 10 minutes for the single valet to retrieve my car, which was in plain sight. He also moved my seat so far back that I could not even reach the pedals! Was this necessary to move my car 50 feet? Prices are not cheap, but in line for Rancho Mirage.

This is a hidden treasure. The food was spectacular and the service was impeccable. Everything was so fresh and delicious, I would highly the charred octopus, it was so tender and perfectly cooked. The paella was loaded with seafood as opposed to many others that are primarily rice with little seafood spattered in. I hope to visit this place again when I return to PS.

Holy cow. If I could shut this place down I would. We went for their Christmas dinner and it was easily the worst dining experience I have ever had. The service was terrible. The food was worse and it made one of us physically sick afterwards. We had carder salad to start and the salad was clearly a few pieces of bagged Romain lettuce with the saddest Parmesan cracker on top. The paella made me so sick I spent the night in the bathroom. The dessert tasted so bad that none of us ate it. The kids’ meals were a bowl of cavatappi noodles that cost 35 dollars. The same noodles that cost 2.00 at any grocery store. To add insult to injury we spent 750 dollars for the 9 of us. We recommend none of the dishes and wish this place closed down.
