Rosa is the best! I've brought my team here for happy hour several times and she always takes great care of us. The bartenders are always lovely too when I come here solo. Chill spot with good food, drinks, and great service.

Matador in West Seattle offers a lively dining experience with a great mix of flavors. I had the jalapeño poppers, enchiladas, and tacos, and each dish was satisfying. The jalapeño poppers were crispy with just the right amount of spice, the enchiladas were rich and flavorful, and the tacos were fresh and tasty. The atmosphere is vibrant, with a fun, energetic vibe perfect for a night out. The service was friendly and efficient, making the meal even more enjoyable. If you're in West Seattle, Matador is a solid choice for delicious Mexican fare.

We had a late dinner here on a Sunday night after driving . They need to provide a warning on the hot sauce. My wife put it on her taco, and after the first bite, she could not taste the rest of her tacos. Nice service, waitress, & atmosphere. The waitress said she had also said they needed to list a warning.

Delicious Mexican food with a creative flare. Generous portions. Great margaritas with an extensive agave spirits list. Like the seasonal specials and top shelf Tuesday.

The Matador is hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants I have ever been to! The ambiance was cozy and inviting, and the service was top-notch. But the real star of the show was the Matador bowl. Let me tell you, it was absolutely delicious! The combination of fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and perfect seasoning made each bite a culinary delight. I couldn't get enough of it! I highly recommend trying the Matador bowl when you visit - it's a true standout on their menu. I can't wait to return to The Matador and indulge in more of their amazing dishes. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

This Matador West Seattle location was a nice Mexican restaurant with enjoyable drinks and surprisingly tasty carnitas. It was also cool to see this restaurant was 21+ only. I didn't adore the tortillas we tried or the bean dip/queso dip, but the salsa was solid. Service was also great throughout.

Matador has an incredible Happy Hour. Can’t really beat 5 tacos for $10. On top of that, they offer Beyond Meat. Delicious, well seasoned, and great textures. Highly suggest getting the spicier orange colored salsa if you can handle heat.
Only downside is every worker there seems like they don’t want to be there every time we go. Other than that, it’s clean and the food is good.
