About this place
A meal at Faro18 often begins on a thoughtful note with an otoshi starter of figs and cream cheese, setting the tone for a roster of wine-friendly small plates. Moroccan-style grilled lamb skewers arrive richly browned and fragrant with spices, while house-made wagyu corned beef dusted with dukkah offers a moist, deeply spiced bite. Sizzling shrimp ajillo is another staple, best enjoyed by soaking crusty baguette into the garlicky infused oil.
Paella takes center stage for the main course, cooked until the rice is deeply saturated with flavorful stock. Options include a vibrant seafood paella loaded with red shrimp, mussels, clams, and squid, as well as an Aomori spear squid paella tinted with rich squid ink. Both make satisfying centerpieces for groups to portion out at the table.
The drink list ranges from Spanish beers and house sangria to a broad selection of food-friendly wines. Table seating features convenient smartphone ordering, allowing guests to pace their dinner comfortably in casual yet relaxed surroundings. Families can take advantage of kid-friendly options such as dedicated pasta dishes, while a slice of smooth Basque cheesecake paired with coffee makes a leisurely finish.
