Katalina fans now have three locations for pancakes, sweet and spicy bacon, pulled pork sandwiches, and breakfast tacos! Katalina’s Tres opens today on East Main Street in Bexley, turning a former Boston Market into another outpost for its signature Latin-inspired fare.
It joins the original Harrison West location and Clintonville outpost, Katalina’s, Too.


The long space has a front dining room with a kitchen at the back. Booths and tables with benches line the windows, while rows of tables line the middle.


Like other places, Katalina’s Tres has you order at the counter, then take a number and find a table. There are menus on the wall behind the ordering counter that are hard to see until you get to it, but there are also paper menus.


Katalina’s features a number of local products and ingredients on its menu and has a long-standing relationship with Thunderkiss Coffee. You’ll find hot coffee, plus cold brew and cold orcha in the coolers, along with a variety of juices, Mexican coke, and other beverages.


Catalina’s most famous dish is, of course pancake balls. They’re filled with Nutella, dulce de leche or pumpkin apple butter, then served with Milligan’s maple syrup and sweet and savory bacon.


They featured a few items that are unique to the Bexley location, so I decided to try those as well. The Bexley Shakshuka Breakfast Sammy uses Sammy’s Bagels pepper urfa bagel topped with a poached egg in a tomato-pepper sauce, drizzled with house-made jug and queso fresco.


They also added a side of Purple Craze Latkes. It’s a pair of purple potato latkes made with matzo flour and cumin, served with sides of Snowville cream and pumpkin apple butter.


There’s a small shelf of Catalina napkins, plus bags of Thunderkiss coffee, bottles of Milligan’s maple syrup, jam jars, and more.


They even have special “Bexley or Bust” mugs.


Just as its two original locations are known for their patios, Katalina’s Tres also features a large outdoor dining area.


And the side of the building is decorated with murals by local artists.
