Tips from diners
A perfect opener or part of a sharing progression. Not heavy, but satisfying.

Order this — multiple reviewers cite it as a standout on the menu.
Tender, slow-cooked lamb piled onto crusty Spanish bread and spread with house-made garlic aioli. Simple, unfussy, and exemplary of Spanish sandwich craft. The lamb is cooked until it falls apart, and the bread is chosen carefully for texture.
Tips from diners
A complete meal on its own — satisfying and not too heavy.
A feisty and fun cocktail that balances the smoky depth of mezcal with bright citrus and stone fruit. The house-infused pepper syrup adds heat and complexity. Described in reviews as playful and well-executed.
Tips from diners
Ask the bar team about the cocktail program — they're knowledgeable and love talking through the menu.
A restaurant-quality paella made in shallow pans and finished with a crispy socarrat crust on the bottom. This version features a combination of seafood, vegetables, and Spanish chorizo, all cooked together with saffron rice. Rich, aromatic, and meant for sharing.
Tips from diners

Tres Gatos opened in 2011 in the first floor of a Victorian home, combining a restaurant, wine bar, and book and record store—a unique triple concept. Chef Stephen Marcaurelle runs the kitchen, drawing inspiration from tapas bars in Seville, Madrid, and Barcelona. The restaurant features an all-Spanish wine list, excellent mezcal and spirits selection, and live music. The space uses the restaurant's living room as the bar, creating an intimate, unconventional dining experience.
This is a conversation-friendly date spot — intimate without being stuffy, and the record store in the back is a fun touch.
The restaurant is small. Make a reservation for Thursday–Sunday, or try walk-ins on Monday–Wednesday evenings.
Sunday and Saturday brunch (11 am–2 pm) features tapas and drinks. A great time to experience the space without evening crowds.
The all-Spanish wine list is excellent. Tell your server your preferences and let them guide you. They know their list.
Live music happens regularly — check their schedule online or call ahead if music is a draw for you.
