Those who know Josh and me, know that The Matador in Ballard is our absolute favorite place to go on date nights. Many many nights in graduate school we would go there (usually Sunday nights) after studying and get one of their wonderful, towering platters of steak nachos. Mac and Jacks, my favorite beer is even on tap there! The Matador will always be my favorite around Seattle for happy hour/reasonably priced dates, but I wanted to introduce you to our neighborhood "Matador" in Capitol Hill. Josh and I walked down to this neighborhood Mexican restaurant tonight to relive some memories and enjoy their nachos :-)
El Farol. Our neighborhood "Matador."
peruse the interior....
cute, quaint. Sometimes it is busy, often it is not (but this hidden gem on 15th should no longer be overlooked!)
The nachos are wonderful. A little more authentic Mexican than the "tex mex" of the Matador. We recognize the family waitstaff every time we walk in there (and they often recognize us). Prices are comparable and hey, what beats being able to walk to your dinner? Josh and I have enjoyed many date nights here.
