  • Great for fine wines
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
Serving delicious World Tapas for lunch and dinner, but also Bistro classics at dinner time. Extensive well priced wine selection, organic, without added sulphites, quirky wines but not only.
In the summer, probably one the best, if not the best restaurant terrace to sit on in Taunton.
Dogs are welcome.

    We had the paella which was absolutely delicious. Stuffed with large prawns, monkfish, chorizo ans chicken. The service was not so good at least at first. Nobody welcomed us when we arrived and we sat for about 10 minutes until the young male waiter finished his conversation with people sitting on the sofas (his friends?) and came and took our drinks order. It was quite cold inside and the canopy and the blinds made it dark and gloomy. Apparently they could not be raised but the ambience improved when the waitress put the lights on.

    The food was absolutely delicious and the service very attentive. The menu was easily explained by the staff, who are very knowledgeable about their food. I would highly recommend a visit. The tempura prawns and vegetables were particularly good, do give them a try. The restaurant is also serving 0 alcohol Prosecco and white wine - a real treat for me!

    We are gradually working our way through the new tapas and thoroughly enjoying them. We particularly enjoyed the beef meatballs in a delicious sauce and the anchovies on toast.
