The atmosphere changes for Christmas. Our prices do not.
Celebrate Christmas at El Gato with our regular à-la-carte menu, our usual prices and all the magic of a beautifully decorated restaurant in the heart of Torremolinos.
A festive table in the heart of Torremolinos.
As every year, El Gato fills with lights, Christmas details and a beautiful tree to create the special atmosphere residents and visitors look for during the holidays.
Come as a couple, with friends or with family. You will find the same fusion cooking and personal service, surrounded by decorations made for celebrating.
At Christmas we serve our regular à-la-carte menu at our regular prices. A special evening does not need to produce an extraordinary bill.
