A Culinary Gem on Wheels: This Asian Food Truck is a Must-Try this summer in Muskoka! Right off highway 118, just outside Port Carling, is this amazing food truck that I recommend everyone to try! We had a large group and Chris, and the team made us feel welcomed! The barn was such a fun vibe with ping pong, pool, and corn hole! We were all having so much fun we didn't want to leave!

What a gem! Such good food. Prepared fresh and really quick. But my favourite thing here is actually the restored barn that’s right next to it: Great vibe, good music and a few fun activities to do while waiting for food! Dart, Billiard, Corn hole and Ping Pong. Locals and tourists, check it out!!

Highly recommend this place if you love korean style cousine, Guy running the truck is very personable and the food is absolutely phenomenal! I would've uploaded a picture if I didn't inhale the spicy beef noodles so fast. Yes it was that good!

Amazing food! I'm going to be dreaming about the Dan Dan noodles for days! Also such a fun place to hang out with a cool atmosphere and fun games to play. It was a cold day and we stayed as long as we could take it! Definitely recommend checking out Gato Gato, even if you can't stay for the ambiance!

Delicious food and really cool way to use the old barn on the property. The only reason this isn’t five stars is for the price, it was definitely a bit expensive. For two rice bowls and dumplings it was $70. We got the momos (dumplings), the chicken bowl and the beef bowl. The momos and the chicken rice bowl were incredible, we devoured those. The beef bowl was good too but I definitely preferred the chicken. The sauce was exceptional on it.

Pretty impressive food truck on the way to Bacebridge from Port carling. Tried their BAOS with gochujang beef brisket. It was delicious, and a must visit place.

Passing through Port Carling close to dinner time. Wasn't looking for a long sit down dinner. Gato Gato hit the spot. It's a little hidden away behind a building. They have a lot of picnic tables w/umbrellas. It's also licensed. Beer and wine available. Had the Japanese eggplant bowl and the Momo Veg plate. The eggplant was really tasty . Slightly crispy . Rice was well cooked . A little on the salty side ,but otherwise very good dinner. The veg dumplings in the Momo fish were very tender. We will definitely eat here again.
