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'.

    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

    This place is a MUST!! Both the food and service were outstanding. Our waiter Marco was great. Made some great recommendations and added a little fun to our experience. We had a great variety of food. Definitely need to try the lamb skewers! The mushroom truffle was delicious. It was like a quiche which surprised me but great!! The roasted potatoes were nice and crispy and the cheese with honey and walnuts was perfectly paired with crusty bread. We would definitely go back!

    We had a great dinner here our first night in Sydney. The sommelier made a great selection of a Spanish red. The Salmon dish as outstanding as was the zucchini small plate.
