Tres Gatos - Jamaica Plain

Do it! This place is wonderfulCame for dinner and sat at the bar - really fun and intimate space.

I love Spanish tapas and am always looking a good place to have them.

For my birthday dinner this year, my boyfriend made a reservation at Tres Gatos to celebrate. I had never been, but have had it as a bucket list place for many years and was excited to go. We were seated immediately, given a low table by the window which was perfect, and our server came by immediately with water and menus. We settled on a small paella and three tapas items (asparagus, patatas and garlic shrimp) and ordered two surprise mocktails. The food was delicious, the asparagus came in a sauce I couldn’t stop eating and the paella was beautifully presented and so tasty we ate every morsel! However, the star of the night was our server Cameron. He went above and beyond making my night feel special and celebratory, even making sure I had a candle to make a wish upon. Regardless of the food, we will definitely frequent Tres Gatos because of Cameron!! It takes a very special person to create an atmosphere where customers feel welcomed, seen and genuinely celebrated. Thank you, Cameron, for making my birthday this year so special!!!

The place is cool. I will be going back. They serve food, drinks and in the back sell books and music. The service is great; five stars. While the tables do have pre-service setup (appetizer/bread plates) w/ utensils and glass for water… I was only served the later (water). I order the mussel dish; mussels were good, the broth was good too/salty but good. Drink was nice. Atmosphere is cool. Outdoor patio is nice. There is one in front and if your lucky or not depending on your perspective, is shaded and other tables are not. There is also patio (outdoor seating) is also on the side of the business as well. There is also a side entrance to where the books and music is sold. Still a lil type unclear of the purpose of the appetizer/bread plate. It is a cute little place and this the menu reflect this; the dishes are are few but do vary with cheese option appetizers, and a few others, entree and drink menu. Worth checking out inspire of some of the limitations menu-wise but still nice spot.

Great little gem Lovely service and delicious tapas The record shop in the back is fun!
