I've visited twice, and the quality of the dishes varies from one occasion to the next. During both visits, we ordered a substantial number of small plates. Out of the eight or so dishes we tried, there were always two that stood out as truly exceptional, while the others ranged from good to mediocre. However, none of the dishes were disappointing. The cocktails here are also quite impressive.

I loved the creative use of mismatched glassware—if you're looking for uniformity at your table, this isn't the spot for you. The tapas are outstanding; the eggplant dish is wonderfully garlicky, complemented by fresh tomatoes and trendy yet delicious cilantro. The high-quality beef tenderloin has a subtle sweetness, and I recommend opting for the 8oz entrée portion. Don't forget to try the creamy, smooth croquettes—they're a must! I've found my new favorite Moroccan-Spanish-Romanian restaurant!

Chicken Bastilla- solid comfort food with class. Lamb brochette- exquisitely made. And the cocktails are creative and in theme. Inside, the back room is a very atmospheric and cozy place. We’ve hosted out of town guests there who were pleasantly surprised. So glad there’s a little more variety in West Seattle’s food scene.

Food took an hour to come out even with only two other tables occupied.
