    The waiter, Hayk, provided us with exceptional service. He was incredibly attentive, always on his feet, and never idle like some other staff. He was constantly moving around, ensuring every guest was enjoying their experience. His recommendations were spot on, and his dedication truly stood out. Hayk’s hard work and professionalism make Katsin a better place to dine. He’s an asset to the team!

    I had the sea bass, which was fabulous and my wife had the gluten-free pizza which topped most any other GF pizza crust out there and with hot, fresh ingredients. It was worth the drive for us and the location was super quaint.
