The Tapa Bar - Victoria, British Columbia

When there was a moment no need to drive I just rushed to this bar as it’s a popular 1 for their good cocktails🍹 In their Happy hour till 5:00 (last order 4:45) ordered wings with garlic sauce, Red wine Sangria & earl grey tea that costed me only $25 around. Wings ... portion was large as a happy hour dish with a very tasty sauce. The pieces of bread soaked into the sauce that is delicious. Next time would like to try white wine Sangria. Music would be louder that would be great! Read more

Vibrant spot with great food and fun atmosphere— we were delighted by the kale and house salad which was a surprise— both really delicious! There were rave reviews for the chile relleno as well— churros a little undercooked but still tasty— red sangria also a hit! A little (a lot) ... loud, but I know it’s a tough thing to manage in a small space— just a heads up if you are going with people with varied hearing capabilities. All in all a great experience— definitely recommended! Read more

We really enjoyed the house salad (brown butter dressing very good), grilled kale (smoky), bit of a mixed response on the Moroccan chicken. Churros good- a bit more cooked and crispy would have been even better. Sangria was lovely.

Everything was perfect. My favorite would be the clam and pork soup. But everything else was really yummy. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was their lavender white tea cocktail. Its made for people who aren't into sweet cocktails.

I once hailed their seafood linguine as the town's unrivaled delight. However, revisiting after years, disappointment struck. The pasta lacked its former flavorful richness, tasting overly fishy and dry. Despite this, their salsa, tortilla, and sodas remained exceptional, as did the trio cream brulee. Regrettably, the pescato frito fell short. ... Service suffered, with long waits for the bill and payment machine (over 10 min for each). While still worth a visit, it no longer reigns as the top culinary destination. Read more
