Az-Zait restaurante

Have been here for the third time. Drive always 1 1/2 hours to get there . Must be the best place around because I never get a free table for evening. Fine dining at its best . Very reasonable prices .

Tried one of the three tasting menus. Taste, presentation, explanation and service was good. Very fair price for the experience. Can recommend and will return. Edit: Tried all if the tasting menus, very creative.

I highly recommend Az-Zait!! Get a reservation and go! The tasting menu was exceptional!! Definitely the best meal we had in Spain! Every course was interesting and delicious. The courses complimented each other giving our palates a delightful experience with each bite. The service was incredible and the presentation was beautiful.

Restaurants like Az-Zait are hard to come by. Fine dining or other small plate tasting menus can be excellent but they can also feel like a mental exercise as you eat increasingly thought-provoking or very conceptual bites. Az-Zait is not one of those restaurants. Straight from when you walk in the door you feel welcome by the staff. You'll see this is not a self-serious dining affair, but a homely, comfortable establishment that still feels both classic and refined. We opted for the smaller 6-course "el lavadero" tasting menu and we were blown away. Every dish is crafted with care and with the customer in mind. It's not an exercise in exploring the chef's ego but creating a meal that is both familiar and exciting. To start: the first dish, an oxtail sandwich with a toothpaste looking sauce container looked unlike anything we had seen before but tasted like the most homely leftover beef stew sandwich that transported you to your grandmother's kitchen on a rainy afternoon. Every dish was both excellent and incredibly tasty with every detail considered. While the menu states 6 courses, it ended up closer to 9 with the addition of wonderful small bites and tastes between courses. The service was second to none and was a real throwback to a classical white tablecloth dining rooms of the early 00's. The cheese and drinks cart only made sure of that. The wine list is brilliant, with a beautiful mix of local and other Spanish wines to perfectly compliment the meal. Overall, our meal in Az-Zait was one of the best in the past year. Either in Seville or anywhere we've been. Whether you're looking for a special occasion or just something different in Seville, you'd struggle to do better than the family run Az-Zait. 5 star, bravo

The experience was exceptional! The food and service exceeded expectations, with a serene atmosphere that enhanced the overall dining experience. Each dish in the six-course menu was creatively crafted and absolutely delicious. Every bite was a delight, and the unique flavors made it well worth the price.

We both had the 6 course tasting menu and they added 3 little tasting between some of the courses. OUTSTANDING! Local chef and locally trained. Just such an amazing experience!

Fabulous Dinner At Az-Zait Restaurant, Seville Our friends found this restaurant in the Michelin Guide as it has been awarded a Bib Gourmand for many years. Bib Gourmand is not quite a Michelin Star, but is a recognition of high quality food at a reasonable price. We couldn’t praise this family-run (chef father, his wife running front-of-house, and their two sons waiters)restaurant enough. We chose their Menú "Cerro de los Olivos" 7 courses (actually about 10 in all) priced at €50! The wines were also very reasonable at about €30 per bottle. For this price we got creative, superb food served impeccably. The 7 courses were very varied, each with its own unique presentation and all equally delicious. The unhurried but very well paced service took about 2.5 hours. We all thoroughly enjoyed our marvellous meal. We had: - Amuse bouche of lentil soup, served with bread and their own olive oil and black olive tapenade - Bombón de foie envuelto en cobre Duck foie gras terrine - Another amuse bouche of beef gel with a peach / mango (?) flavoured "yolk" - Ravioli de gambas relleno con morcilla a la miel Prawn ravioli and black pudding with honey - Ajoblanco malagueño con granizado de tinto Ajoblanco, cold soup with almond and red wine granita - Salteado de tallarines de calamar de potera Jig squid stir-fry with red pepper sauce - Presa ibérica con migas Iberian pork "presa" with migas (scrambled bread) - 2 porciones de queso a elegir o sorbete cheese or sorbet - Maceta (tocinillo de cielo, helado de plátano y "tierra" de chocolate) Flower Pot (egg yolk pudding, banana ice-cream and chocolate "Soil") - Petits fours One of the best meals we've had for a while. Excellent! (Also posted to my food blog on Instagram @AbbeyKing16)

A good fine dine place. Excellent food. Excellent service. The fried cheese was extra crispy and without much oil. The canelones are full of fresh mushroom taste. The bacalao is soft at its best. The scallops are a bit salty (taste of the sea). The service is up for standard at its level.

We wanted to visit a fine dining restaurant in Seville and decided on Az-Zait. A bit old fashioned when it came to the service but we had an overall pleasant experience. I will say honestly though we never felt 100% comfortable here. The ambience was very much your traditional, higher class kind of vibe and less down to earth. I would definitely recommend the 8 dish tasting menu (50 euros each) as it was the largest option for a pretty reasonable price. There were a few standouts, one of mine being the Ajoblanco, cold soup. It was amazing and will be a dish I will remember for a long time. It had pop rocks in it! My boyfriend's standout dish was the chocolate blue cheese dusted with powdered gold. Yeah, I said what I said. I would say, however, I wasn't too impressed with the desserts and found them way too sweet. I couldn't even finish my rice pudding drink. Also, overall, the portions were incredibly small and we left feeling like we could have each eaten a few more bites. With that said, if you want to experience a lot of exciting new dishes with innovative presentation, then give Az-Zait a try. While the service was all in all on point, the hostess was really friendly and particularly our favorite person!

The food was disappointing. The policy of everyone at the table needing to have the same thing meant I was forced to get the 7 item tasting menu as 1 of 6 people. I did not enjoy the foix gras or the scallop carpaccio. The squid was awful and the beef tartar inedible. The dessert was delicious and the wine list was fairly priced. A cold soup was served with bread and the bread was an extra charge. The servers were attentive and the decor was attractive.

Food doesn't get much better than this Michelin restaurant. Gorgeous presentations and an amazing array of flavours. Not to be missed. Service top notch.

Wonderful food, wonderful ambiance. The tasting menus are the way to go (with or without the wine pairings) as the courses and additions are selected with care.

¡La mejor comida en Sevilla! The service? 10/5 Food? 10/5 What's not to love! Order the following: Cold almond soup - may sound weird but yum yum yummmm!! It's such a delicious soup that I can't wait to try to recreate! They serve it with something like pop rocks that really makes the experience all that much better. Scallops - just wow. Soft egg with potatoes and truffles - really really good. Also almost like a soup but not. The dish is not eggy at all. Really, highly recommend! I recommend ordering tapas style to get a smaller portion and leave room for dessert! And speaking of... Get the maceta de tocinillo, or flowerpot. It's light, delicious, and so creative in plating!

Great food, great service. We travelled to Seville and wanted to try Cochinillo (Suckling Pig), it was delicious! Stop at this restaurant while in Seville, you won't regret it. Courteous service.

My friends and I stumbled upon this place on a Sunday morning. Most of the other restaurants we walked past were closed at noon. These guys were just opening up and they let us sit even though they needed a few minutes to get the place ready. We were a group of 6 adults and 3 children ( all under 3 years). The staff was very polite. We stumbled along with English and the little Spanish that we knew. The restaurant looked really fancy, like a date night place. Then the menu came and prices looked decent. All the items were translated in English as well. Now about the food.... It was fantastic! Every dish was artfully prepared and served and tasted as delicious as it looked. Most of the tapas items were under 5 euros. The bill was about 81 euros for our group of 6 + kids and we left stuffed. We had the pesto pasta, chicken nuggets, eggs with potatoes, the tripe with chickpeas, the fried fish, the Marsala steak, potato brava and I can't even remember the rest.... Finger smacking good. Seeing our group enjoy the food, the server had the chef come to our table. I think his name was Antoni. I almost hugged him, this was the best meal I had in Spain and on my last day there too. I am glad I got to leave with this fantastic memory. If u r in Seville, you have to go Az-Zait!

Best restaurant that we went to in our two weeks in Spain. A little hidden gem in the heart of Seville blew our minds with their eclectic menu including shrimp and cheese pastries, truffled egg with octopus, curried cod with tomato reduction and mushroom cannolleni which was maybe the best thing I have ever tasted. An absolute must...

This was an unbelievable meal! My husband and I loved it. Everything was artfully prepared, and the presentation was amazing! My husband had the beef ravioli with cheese which he raved about, and I had the Iberian pork. sensational meal, reasonably priced!

This is so far the best restaurant we have tried in Spain, specially in Seville. Fantastic food, great service and reasonable price for a Michelin restaurant. The soup we ordered was so delicious and well presented. We definitely will come back to try other food. Highly recommended!

We went as a family of four after making a reservation. It's a Michelin Star restaurant. Personally I don't care about Michelin stars. Good clean fresh food served with smiles is good enough for me. (Michelin stars guarantee the food as much as Grammy awards will guarantee good music. Beatles never won a Grammy so....). First of we reached 7 minutes late and we were condescendingly given a table. OK...I did not say anything. The reception was pretty luke warm. Everywhere in Barcelona and Seville up until then we were asked if this is the first time and some casual niceties happened that made us feel comfortable. And I did not like the smell and feel of this place. Don't ask why. And that matters to me. Wine by the glass. They poured just about twice the volume of the one they poured to taste the wine. I know portions of "wine by glass" is smaller in Europe than USA but come on. This is too little. Obviously we needed more wine. So every time she would pour that little amount of "wine by glass" it was charged. Not much variety of food in the menu. No explanations on what each item means. All tourists don't know the details. I mean why should I do research on every item on google before I come in? And the waiter kept coming back every minute after handing us the menu whether we had decided. Dude. Give me some time to figure out your cryptic menu! Anyway we ended up paying about 100+ euros with two drinks and two waters and four main courses. Won't recommend this place.

Four stars......are you kidding me???? Five stars all the way!! We have eaten our way through Spain for two weeks using Yelp, TripAdvisor and recommendations from food tours. This was the best meal we've had. We had the five course "tasting menu" but it was literally a meal and a half per person for a laughable price. The quality of the food and the service was simply superb: everything was well thought out and obviously trying very hard to impress and please. The Cordoban cold soup was to die for. The slow cooked egg with octopus: amazing! The scallops: wonderful!! The wine was poured with an aerator: how lovely and thoughtful!! You had a spritz to clear your pallete after every course You had an amazing Pina Colada frozen ice with a liquor drizzle to accompany your Brownie with whipped angel hair "whatever" with ice cream and chocolate syrup Even the bathrooms were several steps up from other high end establishments we have visited in Spain thus far. This is not a restaurant: it's a destination Put it on your list of places to visit while you're in Seville

Delicious tapas! The shrimp & cheese in puff pastry was amazing. Menu in English as well. No more expensive than any other place for tapas, would definitely recommend it!

Az Zait offers a unique way of dining. Not only is presentation unique, but the food was very good. I believe it is mentioned in the Michelin guide, but does not have a Michelin Star. We had the tasting menu. I can't quite remember all the dishes, but we had a soup served inside a marble egg that was delicious. Chorizo was served hanging on a clothesline. Although I can't name the other dishes on the tasting menu, they were overall very good. Although I wouldn't rave about the the food, I believe it's worth a visit.

Very good food. We did the eight-course tasting menu, and there were many delicious flavors. All traditional Spanish food, but with a twist. The service was not at the quality of the food. It was only OK. Setting was beautiful.

We were heading back to Eslava, but it was closed, then we found Az-Zait. Lucky us! Foie gras under glass, scallops, Tapa de Salmorejocon helado de aceite de oliva ! Our waiter, a Scotsman, kept us entertained!
