Downtown Los Gatos Welcomes the Catamount
Soft serve with a chocolate magic shell and caramel sauce at The Catamount.
Following in the footsteps of Pizzeria Delfina, Gott’s and Tacolicious — all San Francisco restaurants that have ventured southward — now comes The Catamount in downtown Los Gatos.
It’s the newest establishment by restaurateur Ray Tang of the Presidio Social Club in San Francisco.
The handsome, 10,000-square-foot restaurant opened earlier this summer in the old California Cafe building. The interior was completely redone. The once open kitchen was closed off with trendy barn doors. The bar and dining room have been given the air of a modern plantation with breezy ceiling fans, plenty of rattan, and loads of windows to let streams of natural light in.
The old California Cafe redone completely.
The inviting bar.
Its name pays tribute to the town’s name (Spanish for “the catsâ€), as well as its surrounding mountainous landscape.
