Il Gatto's $3 Happy Hour Deals


Site: Il Gatto
Location: 3000 Hennepin Ave. S (map here)
Deal: $3 happy hour specials, including a glass-and-a-half of red and white house wine, two mini burgers and fries, a mini pizza, warm chips with cheese, and cod sliders.
Details: When Figlio departed from the corner of Lake and Hennepin last year, no one was too heartbroken—the Uptown fixture had grown a bit stale. Still, its happy hour specials were a thing to be reckoned with—great deals on burgers and wine till 7. When the new Italian restaurant, Il Gatto, roared in to take its place in late November, it decided not to mess too much with the happy hour formula. While the bar area is smaller than its predecessor's, and the happy hour ends at 6:30, the restaurant still serves the same great burgers and fries and mini pizzas for $3. They also improved the wine deal—for $3, you get a full glass of wine plus a tiny carafe with another half glass. A nice buzz and a full belly for $6 is a tough deal to beat.
Expiration: Ongoing
