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'.

    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!

    Great food and personable staff. A bit keen to fill your wine glass but very helpful with the tapas menu choices. Great, well done

    Excellent food wine & service. We were in Sydney for a few days following our cruise and chose Tapavino for dinner. From start to finish we had an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious Definitely 5*

    We sat at the bar and the barman was clearly in a very bad mood, his poor display of behaviour carried on for more than an hour. Slamming everything down which made for an uncomfortable dinner. Outside of that the food was exceptional and the wait staff was amazing.
