If I could only pick one restaurant to recommend in this entire city it'd be Gato. Good scene, great food & cocktails. Sit at the bar.
Jennifer EvansJune 24, 2015
Burrata was delicious but found all of our food to be spicy and seasoned similarly. Also liked the roasted potatoes with an egg on top. Perfect.
Chrissy TobinApril 5, 2015
Agree with the others who recommended the scrambled eggs and octopus - both are fantastic! Also loved the duck confit!
julia tFebruary 24, 2015
The bar appetizers are like amuse bouches- small tastes. The razor clams and the artichoke with uni and quail egg both great. Shrimp main is skippable.
Amanda SchneiderFebruary 19, 2015
The eggplant starter is awesome, as is the duck confit. Make sure to finish with the apple tarte tatin.
Mark GrahamJune 28, 2014
Don't be a fool! Someone in your party should order the squid ink fettuccine w/octopus & king-size prawns. (Fwiw, the lemon tart dessert is a perfect complimentary finish.)
Jessica ShimMarch 26, 2015
The cocktails are amazing. Don't leave without getting the scrambled egg appetizer, paella, and the fig gelato. Pass on the lamb pizza.
Josh UptonAugust 25, 2017
Stick to the bar bites, for the table and appetizers and you're golden. The Marlene is one of the best cocktails I've had in a while too.

The small plates outshine the entrées at Gato. Opt for the Eggplant with Balsamic and Manchego Cheese as well as the Crab Risotto. Desserts here are not their strong point.
David RosenbergMay 20, 2014
Whatever you get, also get the kale paella. Tables are hard to come by so snag bar seats early and often, and order from the full menu.

The fried oysters tapa was astounding—this is coming from someone who grew up in coastal NC with a deep uncompromising love for steamed or raw oysters.
ChavelliNovember 17, 2014
Pleasantly surprised with how good everything is. The kale and mushroom paella was great, as was the octopus! Excellent all around.
Maggie ChaitmanSeptember 20, 2014
Get the cauliflower... Whatever else you do, get the cauliflower. Also get the orata and maybe the rabbit, if rabbit is your kind of thing
James KiernanAugust 2, 2015
Lived up to the hype. Favorite dishes were the chorizo and the kale paella. Also great cocktails. Well done Bobby!
Russell SinclairMay 18, 2014
Excellent food. Good mixed drinks. Bobby Flay working the line in the kitchen. A great place to drop in for an after work snack and a drink.
Meg FarmerOctober 15, 2016
Came in for some late night eats and grabbed a spot at the bar. Octopus was our fav dish, paella was also good.
Tohm SansaniMarch 25, 2015
Apps and bar snacks pack a flavor punch that entrees don't: scrambled eggs & roasted octopus blew my mind!
Viren KaulApril 15, 2017
Carrots and few appetizers are good. We tried a bunch of other stuff: the steak, and bar menu as well platter: not the biggest fan. The reviews seem like embellishments :( disappointed
Andrea BarrezuetaApril 3, 2015
The saffron linguini with mussels garlic and parsley was so tasty. The cauliflower and charred octopus out of control. But this time the charred carrots were very disappointing
Rachel LNovember 28, 2014
The kale and artichoke paella is DELICIOUS and vegetarian. They also have great pizza and the chicken dish was good.
CCnycApril 30, 2016
Start with the roasted octopus and have the charred beef and kale/ wild mushroom paella. Nacho cocktail is awesome.
Leslie RobbinsOctober 21, 2015
Get the scrambled eggs! I'm not an egg person, but it was delicious !
Jen BergNovember 20, 2014
Skip the main courses and order two of everything from the bar snacks plus apps. Don't miss scrambled eggs and octopus!
Allie NieldsJuly 10, 2014
You need to eat here. Had the fettuccine and it was bomb. Worth the risk of black teeth. Can't go wrong with the cocktails either
Christina YoshiiNovember 9, 2014
Everything is so tasty definitely a must do on the list of places to eat at
Enigul SonmezJuly 6, 2014
Strawberry sorbet and gianduja gelato are wonderful. The black pepper vanilla gelato was the best surprisingly perfect flavor
Jason BrewOctober 10, 2015
Spacious Nolita spot opened by Bobby Flay. Try the scrambled eggs for an appetizer and the kale paella for an entree
Nikki BogopolskayaJuly 10, 2014
Best charred octopus in the city. Stick with tons of appetizers, no need for entrees.
Mars SpencerMarch 22, 2014
Outstanding garlic shrimp. Cauliflower was excellent as well. Great Spanish wine list. Halibut was so so.... Definitely going back!

The Lorenzo (drink) and cauliflower were supper tasty! Loved the veg pasta app and my friend loved the octopus.
SiovonneAugust 15, 2014
In love with this place. All the dishes were amazing! Bobby Flay doesn't Flay Around. Great for group dinners.
Ronald CattrysseJuly 18, 2017
I do not remember what I had but even after a year I can say everything was great! Recommended!
SunainaJanuary 15, 2016
Octopus, paella, scrambled eggs, rabbit, bread pudding cake - must haves

The scrambled eggs and charred beef. My favorite restaurant and cool that you can see bobby cooking in the kitchen.

Layered potatoes, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, kale paella. This place could make anyone turn vegetarian
Gabe EldredAugust 24, 2014
the scrambled eggs, octopus, and lamb pizza are all outstanding must-orders

Obsessed with the lamb, tuna piquillo, scrambled eggs and paella! And the espresso bread pudding is AMAZING.
Sue FMay 11, 2015
I had the rabbit and it was fantastic. The service was great. Can't wait to go back!
Cesar Corral-CastillaDecember 22, 2015
Good vibes with a really friendly staff. Get the Kale and Wild Mushroom Paella. It's delicious.
TAMMY GIAJanuary 2, 2015
Sat a the bar and Jason the bartender was super helpful, ordered the snacks- artichoke heart with quail egg is INSANE!!!

If it weren’t for the legitimately good food Flay is sending out of the kitchen, you’d think patrons would be satiated on the celeb-heavy scene alone. Read more
Leah HammerschlagSeptember 8, 2014
The crispy potatoes are AWESOME. all the fish dishes are stellar. Obviously his beef is delicious as well.
Olivia OranApril 29, 2014
Delicious! We had the pork chop, the kale paella, scrambled eggs, shrimp and cauliflower.
ZenFoodsterMay 27, 2014
My fave, Chef Bobby Flay, at his new restaurant Gato. So sweet he was there on Memorial Day to cook for us! 😊
Kiwi WangOctober 4, 2016
I hate to say it because I loathe bobby flay, but the food here is seriously so good. The rice dishes are amazing!
Greg S.January 21, 2016
Quality Mediterranean food at a premium. Loved the octopus and small plates from the bar.
K2September 26, 2017
Delicious tapas!!! Lovely place! Just AC is too strong!!!
Jamie BachmanDecember 11, 2016
Wow. Awesome mushroom parpadelli. Great Castro drink. Amazing afaghatto.
Mike O'SullivanOctober 6, 2014
Everything is amazing, but I personally love the grilled octopus and the lamb pizza.
AliciaAugust 7, 2014
Gran a seat at the bar and order any of the small plates- all are amazing!
