Gato is where bold Mexican flavours meet a laid-back, unpretentious vibe. Known as one of Sutton’s best spots for authentic Mexican fare, this taco and mezcal joint takes pride in sourcing exceptional local ingredients while staying true to traditional methods.
The foundation of the menu lies in their tortillas—crafted locally from whole-grain corn, ground on volcanic lava millstones hand-cut in Mexico. These tortillas set the stage for everything from birria tacos loaded with braised beef and Oaxaca cheese to tofu “soyrizo” options for plant-based eaters. The salsas? A mix of fresh tomatillos and dried chiles, bringing acidity and depth to every bite.
The cocktail list keeps it simple but exceptional, using freshly squeezed lime juice, agave syrup, and high-quality spirits to deliver a lineup of margaritas, mezcalitas, and refreshing Palomas. Pair your meal with a cold beer or sip on mezcal to really lean into the experience.
