It’s been a while since we came away from a restaurant having not felt disappointed. But Moro lived up to what we have experienced in the past. It’s a little pricey but I’d rather pay a bit more and come away feeling that the food and drink were great which they were. Tasty ceviche with a fino sherry followed by Wood Roasted Pork finished off with the staple Malaga Raisin ice cream accompanied by Don Ximenez sherry. Good to know some things don’t change

The food and service were excellent. The ground floor was full, so we sat downstairs which was empty other than our table. The ambiance would likely have been much better on a busier night.
