About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines
Lively

A celebration of Sherry, Wine, Tapas, & Friends. Influenced by the culture of sip-a-little-bit-of-this-and-eat-a-little-bit-of-that, Tapavino began in August 2012 as Australia’s first Sherry Bar in Sydney, in a little lane-way not unlike something you would find in the cobblestoned alleyways of Spain. Helped by the beautiful warm vibe that greets you as you step inside and take a seat among floor-to-ceiling wine bottles, Tapavino was named runner-up in Sydney Morning Herald's 'Best New Bar' Awards within 4-months of opening. 12-months later we were named 'Best Bar with Food'.

Food was great but white wine by the glass was terrible. Waiters and manager were lovely. Bit disappointed they didn't anything for the special occasion I told them about when booking and then when they asked if there was a special occasion as we were seated!

We had a wonderful dinner for 10 and presented the added challenge of needing to be done in roughly an hour. We discussed this prior, but regardless this definitely created complexity for the kitchen and staff on a busy Saturday night. The team did a tremendous job. Faultless. The food (set menu) was wonderful. The service wonderful also. Thank you and we look forward to dining with you again.

Ambience was nice, dissapointed our only choice was a set menu for 10 with different pallets not able to choose there own dish, sliders - bread was a bit stale and the meat skewers came our cold. Nice as first try but not keen to go back
