  • 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 were dubious about the new Japanese inspired dishes appearing on the tapas menu but we didn’t need to worry. They were delicious. Who would think Japanese could inspire tasty small dishes that work well with Mediterranean ones! The crispy fried tofu was my favourite whilst my husband loved the sashimi.

    We had a fantastic experience on Valentines night. Food was amazing, my husband especially enjoyed his cheese board. The wine and cocktails were lovely and the service was great. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend.

    We went for tapas but were seduced by the main menu and weren’t disappointed. The game terrine with apricot chutney was perfectly balanced. The beef bourginon marinated in red wine for three days was perfect. My husband thought the haddock fish cakes were excellent and he loved the Mediterranean cod with samphire (advertised as wilted greens!) was to die for. We both enjoyed our desserts and our decaf coffees with a great selection of whiskeys and liqueurs. We have loved this restaurant since it opened and it goes from strength to strength. We are now looking forward to the new tapas menu which will include some Japanese influences.
