- JJohnChicago / Illinois •5 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThe star of the evening was undoubtedly the grilled octopus, prepared with a masterful touch that spoke to the chef's expertise with seafood. The tender tentacles, charred to perfection, carried subtle notes of harissa and lemon, while maintaining the natural sweetness of the meat. Each bite offered that ideal combination of crispy exterior and buttery-soft interior that octopus aficionados dream about. The lamb dish proved equally impressive. Slow-cooked until falling off the bone, the meat was perfumed with an aromatic blend of traditional Tunisian spices. The accompanying bread, light and fluffy, served as the perfect vehicle for soaking up the rich, complex sauce. What sets this establishment apart is their commitment to authentic Tunisian coastal cuisine while maintaining exceptional quality across their menu. The kitchen demonstrates a deep understanding of traditional cooking techniques while adding subtle contemporary touches that enhance rather than overshadow the classic flavors.More infoGolaPrice: Moderate• Tunisian• Mission District•4.7
