    Arabic coffee

    This is a restaurant which is located where a lot of tourists walk by, they have indoor nicely decorated and outdoor with tent. They try to bring in customers who walk by, but ours was pre planned. The server was all cheerful and nodded to all our requests, such as that we asked if you could make our falafel spicy and so on. He nodded all with a smile. Now the dishes started coming up soup, falafel, and the kibbi vegano. None of the dishes had the accommodations we asked for. We were looking forward to some spicy food but ended up with normal, which is default no customization. Afterward, we approached the manager and conveyed our concerns. He came up saying the guy does not understand English and so on. But we know he was able to converse with us well. They could have been upfront with us, but they did not. It does not matter because you get new tourists and new customers every day.!

    Oh my goodness. This place was such a nice treat! The dips and meat were SO fresh and flavorful. This was hands down the best Lebanese food I've ever had...I'm making myself hungry just thinking about this place.

    AMAZING place - great service, great food, loved the breeze sitting outside too. The chicken, lamb, beef were all juicy and flavorful. We got a dish Uragratis (?) that was rice + shrimp + a super flavorful red curry-like sauce that was SO tasty. Even the complementary appetizer with hummus/baba ganoush was amazing. Ended dinner with Moroccan Mint Tea which was wonderful. Our waiter was fantastic and we had a great time. Highly recommend this place. The food took a long time to come out likely because they were preparing it fresh. Oh also, this place is halal!

    The restaurant has a nice ambience with a decent amount of indoor seating. Sevilla has plenty of Arabian/Mediterranean restaurant given the historic influence of those cultures, so we definitely wanted to try the food here. After we ordered, the waiter recommended we add another dish so we did. The flavors were great overall, I especially like the salad, hummus, and kebabs. The Rice with Lamb Biryani came inside of a bread cover and there was a ton of lamb inside the dish. The dish was okay in terms of flavor in my opinion, but it's probably just my personal tastes. In the end, I think we shouldn't have ordered as much as the waiter had suggested because it was too much food, but we enjoyed the experience overall.

    We wanted something different on our last night and boy did we score! All reviews on how great the food and service were , I agree . We went early n chose to eat inside . I apologize that I can't remember the names of our dishes because I am so late in writing this review. Suffice to say, they were all delicious n the presentation was great .

    Best food in Seville. From the appetizer to main course is excellent. Service was excellent too.

    Veggie dips, falafel

    Good food, reasonable pricing. Staff is awesome. It's always interesting to try various types of food all over the globe. For example, the labneh here is made with cheese rather than yogurt. The falafel was also different, but we enjoyed it. We wanted to try the vegetable salad with fruits and nuts as well as the couscous but just doing the dip sampler for two was more than enough food. Ask for the spicy sauce if you like spice! Kudos to them for having so many vegetarian items on their menu!

    The best food I had in all of Seville.. stopped by this place for late dinner during my recent trip…read moreto Seville and this place did not disappoint. We ordered their roasted lamb with cous cous, garlic shrimp croquetta (that was the croquetta of the day), pork cheek stew with potato purée and the chocolate panna cotta for dessert. We also ordered their sangria and tinto de verano. Every dish we ordered was AMAZING - tasty flavorful well seasoned melt in your mouth meat bursting with flavors. We devoured every bite and it was hard to pick a favorite. Both the lamb and pork dishes were 11/10. Not just the taste but the presentation of every tapa was fantastic. Their drinks were also great. The dessert was to die for. This place is super packed during peak dinner hours and there is barely any room to stand. Since we walked in around 11pm, we got a seat and were well taken care of all thru the night. Also noticed alot of veggie options on the menu which was great. Service was awesome ambience is chic. I am certain I am going to crave their tapas once I am back home. Highly highly recommend this place when in Seville.

    Where do I begin? Let's talk about the ambience. To call this place rustic would probably capture…read moreit best, it's really probably more like a cafeteria or a school room at a very old school. Tables perhaps a bit close together, not terribly comfortable. Loud, busy. As far as the service, it was our impression that our waiter was the only person serving the 30 or so tables in their dining room. Suffice it to say the service was not fast and not good. Inexplicably, every time we ordered a Coke we were asked if we wanted a Coke Zero. If I wanted a Coke Zero I would have said the words Coke Zero. Even when I asked for another Coke, he again asked "Coke Zero?" It took next to forever to get the check, and forever to get a cappuccino. At one point I took it upon myself to point the waiter to a table behind us that had been desperately attempting to get his attention. This was all not good. As to the food. First, our fault for not knowing what tataki meant. We did not expect to receive salmon that was seared on the outside and raw on the inside. So that one is on us, although we also think the meal came tepid at best. The lamb on couscous was dry and tough. The pork cheek stew was actually pretty good if a bit gluey. The calamari was good. The sushi as they called it was average. What they called the tiramisu was more like a pudding with some liqueur and chocolate on the top, and a little bit of breadish stuff in the bottom. Not my idea of tiramisu, and probably not yours either. So we could not get too excited about these various dishes. But what was particularly frustrating and bizarre was that two people sitting across from us ordered food that looked absolutely delicious. So we got to sit there wondering why we didn't order what they ordered. They ordered a large beef dish with potatoes which is on the menu, and we think they ordered a large octopus meal although we are not sure. Everything they had looked better than anything we had. So it may be that we somehow just picked the wrong items. So it was a strangely frustrating meal. This place has good reviews and we expected good tasting food. Unfortunately it did not work out that way, and the ambience and service were negative contributing factors. I can't entirely write this place off, only because the food other diners received actually looked very good. But I don't think I would go there again.
