You’ve been asking for it since we opened last year, and we’re finally able to offer it… as of today you can now enjoy our full dining menu across all three floors of our beautiful home in King Street.
Previously we offered a more streamlined menu on the ground floor, but customers have consistently asked to be able to choose from all the dishes on our full menu. We’ve listened, and now we’re offering our full menu for downstairs. We will maintain the seating on the ground floor exclusively for walk-in customers and phone reservations only, which should ensure customers have more options than ever to dine at El Gato Negro.
We’ve also extended our lunch service hours; we will now be accepting orders between midday and 3pm on Tuesdays–Thursdays. We still serve straight through on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and open at 5pm on Mondays to allow for staff training and downtime.
(available Tuesday–Friday, 12 until 3pm)
We also now offer a set lunch option in the restaurant, based around a representative selection of our dishes. Whether you’re looking for a quick working lunch, or you’d like an introduction to some of our signature dishes, the set lunch is ideal. Dishes included on the set lunch are indicated by a ✓ symbol on our menu.
