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'.

    Fabulous restaurant and great ambience if you don’t mind it to feel crowded and a bit noisy, hence the 4 stars for ambience.

    The staff were extremely helpful and flexible as to what our table of 9 people could choose from the menu, and they did not force us to take the set menu option. This was very helpful as many people had not been to Tapavino before and wanted to try a number of menu items which were all outstanding. Could not recommend Tapavino more highly to others.

    Amazing food. So fresh and tasty. Wish the empanadas were still on the menu though. Brought two friends along and they were very impressed.

    We ordered a selection of share plates and everything was delicious. Even though we had eaten plenty of food we couldn’t resist sharing a selection of desserts, they all sounded so good - and they were! Juan the waiter was very professional. A great atmosphere and we’ll be back!
