Tapa - Darlinghurst (NSW)

Bar Tapa offers classic and authentic Spanish cuisine, along with some of the most exceptional cocktails in the city. The food is outstanding, and I can't remember the last time I had such a fun and lively dining experience. This was my fifth visit, and I am already looking forward to returning for my sixth, seventh, and eighth visits. I highly recommend Bar Tapa to anyone looking for a fantastic culinary experience.

I went to this restaurant for a date that I quickly realized I needed to end. To speed things up, I went to pay and instead of just charging my card, the waiter came back to the table and made a show of the fact that I was paying, even though my date had left their card with the bar much earlier. I felt embarrassed by this and was trying to figure out how to leave without being rude. Just some feedback for the staff. The food looked good and the atmosphere was nice. I especially enjoyed the different Spanish music playing in the bathroom compared to the rest of the restaurant.

If you have a passion for Spain, you will adore this restaurant! They serve genuine, traditional tapas in a casual and welcoming atmosphere, along with a fantastic variety of Spanish wines, beers, and ciders. The extensive menu means I could happily eat here every day. Ole! This place is fantastic!

Sometimes it is nice to see bars that take service seriously. You get a complimentary tapas with every drink and the sangria are the best value for money here.Estrella on tap and tapas with each drink won me over. Nice neighbourhood bar kinda feeling. Highly recommend it.

An authentic, distinct, mouthwatering experience. You could easily mistake walking into Bar Tapa with walking into a tapas bar in Barcelona. The decor, a refreshing take on the gentrification of many tapas bars within the region providing a colourful and welcoming experience. Each dish was packed with flavour, with traditional favourites such as the patatas bravas and gambas al ajillo, and new takes and presentations on classics like the octopus served on potato slices. The only negative was the potato slices could have been seasoned prior to layering, but this was more than made up with the amazing sangria on offer. A must try, given the shortage of good spanish tapas bars in Sydney.
