Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar is a great place for catering events with excellent food and service. Recently, it successfully catered a wedding reception, impressing guests with the quality of the food, friendly staff, and inviting atmosphere. The restaurant also provides a good dining experience for last-minute visits, with quick seating and tasty food even on busy days like Valentine’s Day. Customers enjoy generous portions and delicious dishes such as the rigatoni marinara and garlic bread, making it a popular spot for satisfying pasta cravings. The food has received high praise, with some calling the calamari excellent even if they usually don’t like it. Whether dining in or catering events, Gatto's offers a delightful experience for all customers, though it is helpful to clarify drink orders for the best experience. The restaurant features a family-friendly ambiance and traditional Italian dishes, with often special deals like $6 meatball sliders at the bar Monday through Thursday, along with free warm Italian bread, butter, and oil. Customers appreciate the open, breezy tables and generally find the food and cocktails, especially The Old Fashion, very enjoyable. While service can vary, many find Gatto's to be a reliable spot for great food, cozy atmosphere, and good value.
