Decent food, great ambience  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Lori S. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 109

This place is a treat to eat in on a summer evening. Great amber chandeliers, outside seating, wrought iron decor. The food is good (not terrific). But, it's a real social hot spot.

Great Happy Hour  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

By Michelle B. | insider Insider | Rank: 22,866

Great location right in the center of Ballard. Happy hour is definitely worth a visit with phenomenal food deals. A fun younger crowd during happy hour and a local bar ambiance in the evening.

Best Mexican Food in the City  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Elizabeth P. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 5,906

Matador has awesome mexican food - very similar to Pesos but the food is a better. Fresh, and flavorful. I love the Carne Asada and the nachos. It gets pretty packed tho, cuz it's also a bar so I like going on a weekend for drinks. If you want a quite dinner try going during the week.

PROS: Great Food
CONS: Parking, Weekends are Crowded

The Matador in Ballard is fabulously decorated with iron grille-work and beautifully polished wood. It is 21 and over only, so be prepared to whip out your ID if you look young. The food is fun, a zesty mix of TexMex with some standard Seattle fare, and the drink menu expansive. On nice days, sit on the patio and watch Ballard stroll by.
