Andaluca- Downtown Seattle

Some places really make you travel with their fixed menu - and Andaluca named after Andalusia the region of Spain the owner loves... is one of them. What is shocking to me is we went here on a 'date night' more than a year back and i still remember what we ate !!!
  
They have gluten free menu and the most passionate servers :)
