Best Tapas Restaurants in Arboretum

5 stars across the board. First time visit to Catalu, and we will definitely be back. This place has checks all the boxes of a fine dining restaurant without the pretentiousness that is often part of the fine dining experience. The tapas was spectacular and paella was even more delicious. Our waitress (Angie?) was affable and knew the menu backwards and forwards, although it was her first week of employment at the restaurant. Very pleasant, indeed. We look forward to booking at Catalu again very soon.

Great spot! Service and food, spot on! The place is small, really small and the music seemed to get louder as dinner progressed. Couldn’t really talk over the Dj but it is a “sound bar” so I enjoyed the vibe, my drinks, and food. Get the pornstar martini and try the hen in the woods!

Jada was our server and she was amazing! Very personable and joyful - what a great representative for your company. We had the arancini for an appetizer and the homemade marinara was delicious. We enjoyed the pasta ( handmade ), salads and entree and would highly recommend this place for quality of food and service. The truffle fries and burgers at the next table looked amazing too. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

First time here and it was a great experience. We came for lunch on Valentine’s Day and it wasn’t too busy. The food was delicious! I got the salmon and my date had the chicken skewers. Both were delicious! The atmosphere was nice with dim lighting so it provided a kind of romantic setting which is wonderful for a date. I highly recommend!

Mariposa at the Mint was the perfect spot to celebrate my birthday! The atmosphere was beautiful, creating a warm and inviting experience. Our server, Rebecca, was absolutely phenomenal—attentive, friendly, and eager to make our evening special. She even took pictures for us and provided excellent food and drink recommendations. Even on a quieter Tuesday evening, the service was top-notch. I can’t wait to come back and try their brunch!
