Monkey Cat

The Monkey Cat is an upscale-but-approachable restaurant in historic Old Town Auburn at 805 Lincoln Way, popular with locals and visitors alike. Its New American menu leans on steaks, fresh seafood, salads, and shareable starters, with locally sourced beers on tap and vegetarian and vegan options available. The dining room pairs a polished interior with indoor and outdoor patio seating, the latter strung with lights for a warm evening atmosphere. Lunch, a happy hour, and dinner service give it flexibility for different occasions, and a private dining room is available for groups. Reservations are accepted. With its central downtown setting and elevated, seasonal cooking, it's a natural choice for a special meal in Auburn.
