Carisma Tapas & Wine Bar in Warwick

Food was lovely, atmosphere calm and an enjoyable experience. A great place for a catch up with great food.

Good food. Great prices and amazing atmosphere. Great for a date night

Everyone was so nice here. Food was so yummy but the service was amazing especially Rebecca and Marina, such lovely people♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Food was mostly ok/ good but on the expensive side for what you get. The tempura vegetables were however not crispy at all and very disappointing.

Really good food, especially the falafel. Lovely atmosphere and staff!

Amazing good with an excellent atmosphere outside the back in the courtyard, felt like we genuinely in another country, loved it!

Great Mediterranean food and drinks!

Interior is really fun, they’ve got loads of seating options. Staff was good, a little slow but they were busy so understandable! We had the sharing platters, the seafood one wasn’t my favourite as it was a lot of deep fried fish essentially but the mediterranean platter was really good. Portions were huge and plenty enough for 6 people. Nice choices of drinks too.

Absolutely amazing tapas!! The food and atmosphere was so authentic and I’d gladly come here again and again!

Very good esp chicken liver. Good size portions. Red wine average. Need new supplier. No attempt to serve it at room temperature

Great place with a nice garden. I went with a friend, we took the Mediterranean shared plate and some chicken skewers. It was great. Their homemade sangria was really tasty. Overall not mind blowing but really good place with great staff and atmosphere. I would recommend it to meet friends with a drink and some bites.

Nice place but a bit pricey for what you get.3 drinks and a platter of food gor 3 people.£92..abit extortionate id say ..

Lovely food great cocktails staff very friendly 😋

Amazing food, good price, must try!!

Impressive building. Very expensive. Bad service.

I really enjoyed the meal, service was lovely. Me and my brother had been attracted by this very lovely painting in the backyard sitting area and asked the waitress about it as a way of having a conversation and we were surprised she actually knew about it. I will definitely visit this lovely place again.

What has happened to this place ! Came a yr ago for our anniversary & had the best tapas ever & came tonight to the worse 😢. Tbf the waitress was lovely , but when your food arrives literally after ordering you know it's not been cooked from fresh 😫. The salad that's was served, well I wouldn't serve it to anyone, the tapas was dry & over cooked ! Sad thing is we will never come back even if a free bottle was thrown in 😂...such a shame . I hope things change in the kitchen asap. I've been to the harvester & had better tapas.

Beautiful day in Leamington and we came across what we thought was a gem going by the stars & reviews. Very quickly regretted this decision. Cutlery & glasses etc were dirty. The service was abysmal and that was from the owner. Food was either heavily seasoned or completely bland, overcooked and poor texture and thick gelatinous sauces. In fact I can't point one thing ordered that I would rate or want to try again. We sampled lots of things off the menu to try to. The bill was astronomical considering these were mini mini tapas portions and the wait was exceptionally long to. Couldn't and wouldn't recommend.

Rude owner, bland food and hair to garnish. No thanks

If I were to recommend you a place to go to have the worst day of your life it would be here . All the food tasted like it was boiled with no seasoning other than a generous garnish of tarantula looking hairs , honestly never again unless I want to self harm . So expensive too , they were acting like I was a prince one drink another +£50 .

I love this little restaurant - always take my daughter when she's visiting. Staff so welcoming and food is wonderful! Thankyou Carisma you make our weekend!😊

Delicious food, sweet and lovely staff and music creating a wonderful atmosphere. Perfect spot to meet and chat with friends over amazing cocktails and tapas.

This place is amazing, we love going here. Food and wine all excellent!!!

Lovely food, lovely people. Very informative on the menu. We had sharing platter. Fab. Very authentic tapas place.

We all had a wonderful night food fantastic service wonderful and we all fully enjoyed the Sangria , we had 2 jugs. Thank You .

Really good pork belly, octopus and churros. Lovely staff. Nice décor upstairs in the evening as well. Good Spanish draft lager and wine is ok.

Everything was 'off' the menu and what we eventually had was mediocre. Not good.

Food it average but staff are great.

A great tapas restaurant with generous portions all at reasonable prices for the area. The sharing platters are huge and delicious. I can highly recommend the meat platter. The service was really welcoming and fast also.

Visited Carisma with some friends, I can honestly say the food was to die for!…simply delicious 😋 The service was great! Warm and welcoming and very accommodating Will almost certainly visit again! Thanks Carisma

Lovely place, fitted us in last minute. Really friendly atmosphere and good food. Mix of Spanish and Eastern Mediterranean foods

Came here for dinner with our 2 girls. The food was amazing and the staff were great. Definitely would be coming back again. Tapas went down really well with the kids

Lovely place with delicious food and friendly staff. The menu offers many options. We went for tapas and ordered 5 small plates between us 2. We had Nachos (we really recommend!!), honey glazed chorizo, Brie wedges, patates bravas and squid. The portions were generous and we loved the food! We also shared one portion of churros for dessert, it was plenty for 2 after the tapas. The food was delivered at a good pace and we didn’t have to wait too long. The place got quite busy around 7pm so I would definitely recommend booking. 6pm seemed the perfect time to be there. We would love to come back if we ever visit Leamington Spa again!

Great place to meet family and friends

We had the sharing platter which was amazing, couldn't fault it.

Loved it, very authentic dishes packed with flavour. Reasonably priced for tapas (so still expensive but you pay for the quality). We had 8 dishes for two people and it cost ~£35 each.

What an experience 👏...fab food and I'm extremely fussy...the decor is so quirky...very reasonably priced...and attentive service...i loved it.

The word "tapas" is used liberally everywhere but this is the furthest thing from a tapas bar I've ever seen. The menu is mostly Turkish with bits from around 10 other cuisines. Patatas bravas is the only Spanish food item. The Arabic music really sets the vibe. Staff are very friendly and attentive, ill give them that.

We live in Essex but on our 4th visit to Leamington Spa this was our 3rd visit to Carisma. It was a mid week visit this time but still a nice atmosphere with beautiful food, amazing decor and very professional & friendly staff. We will definitely return.

We popped in on the off chance of a table after seeing positive Google reviews. Warm welcome, friendly staff, excellent service and amazing food. We had the Spanish platter and a bottle of Malbec. Couldn't finish the platter between 2 of us! Lovely selectionand great value. Would throughly recommend.

Lovely friendly service. Big portions. Tasty food Nice athoshere.

Fantastic food and staff. Highly recommended.will return !

Been there few times. Food is amazing and very tasty. Lovely rustic decor. Staff are lovely. My favourite place

I've put 1 stars across the board just for attention as you have called me on my mobile this evening which is really strange as I've never been to your restaurant or bar lol

45 minute wait, very poor quality food, sticky 'pub' carpets.

Amazing food, great atmosphere and sublime service! A great dinner out! Totally recommend to anyone and everyone!

HORRIBLE FOOOD!!!!! PLEASE AVOID..WORSET CHICKEN I HAVE EVER EATEN EWWW We wasted most of the food and only the bread mainly for dinner - everything was bland. The tapas are not tapas.. the patata bravas taste nothing like they should. Service sucks- very slow and didnt even give us water for 45 mins even after asking 3 times. They didnt even have a glass of sangria only a 2 litre jug- dosent cater to smaller groups. We went to the local sainsbury to grab some food after. Defo wouldnt reccom this place

Bad experience. Bland food which is rare for a tapas restaurant. The saffron chicken was one of the worst dishes I have had before. I would definitely not recommend this place.

Assembled food. 50% iceberg lettuce tapas. Beer was alright. Underwhelmed given the other reviews on here. Pricey too.

Staff were friendly, interior was very nice! The food was okay. We ordered the camembert and we were very surprised when no bread came with it. The tapas menu also says each dish comes with bread however we only received one plate of bread with 4 slices on between 3 of us. We had to ask for more which wasn’t great. The Camembert wasn’t hot inside so it wasn’t very melted, it didn’t have much flavour either. We would recommend the prawns though, these were delicious.

Went as a group of ten to celebrate and we were well looked after. The food was great, fresh and tasty. We had 2-3 tapas per person and shared. The decor is lovely, so don't make assumptions from outside. Highly recommended. Service was outstanding too, thank you for everything. The food all arrived at the same time despite a large order.

Eaten here twice recently, both times excellent... White sangria jugs are dangerous :)

Only went in for a drink tonight but have been for tapas and every time, the food and wine has been great and the service has been perfect. Really good local spot.

Excellent food, very friendly service and a very stylish setting. A great choice of delicious tapas, lovely bread and generous portions. The only disappointment was that there were no milk alternatives for tea and coffee and this is something people who don't drink milk should be aware of.

The best restaurant in Leamington, most incredible food I've ever had. I've lived in Leamington all my life and no idea how I've missed this place, a true hidden gem. The tapas is incredibly flavourful, I had vegan dishes and my friend had meat and fish and is also gluten free, so we can attest to the quality for veggies/vegans and meat lovers. Staff are lovely and very helpful, very relaxed atmosphere so they leave you to browse the menu at your own pace. The decor is incredible, certaintly the best looking restaurant I've visited in a long while. Will be coming back for definite. Highly highly recommend!!!

I took my my mum for lunch we had the sangria and mixed tapas. The food was beautiful and the service was fantastic. My new favourite restaurant.... Loved it

Would have liked to book this place for my family but since they never answer the phone, I guess we will never know how nice it is!

Served by Betty and Rebecca, great and welcoming service. For 2 people We had the Mediterranean platter and Sucuk. Could not recommend this place enough, the food was high quality and tasted amazing. Garden is lovely with music and lights. 10/10 experience

I have just been on my third visit to Carisma and it really is such an amazing place. The staff are brilliant, the surroundings so lovely and the food just fantastic. I can't recommend this place highly enough - well worth a visit.

Fantastic food and service every time!

Brilliant food and service. Excellent variety of food and drinks on menu. Lots of lovely wines and cocktails.

Lovely dinner, wonderful garden.

Delicious salads and nice friendly service.

Staff were lovely and food was great. Very filling!

Amazing service but lots of the dishes were over cooked; pork belly and salt pepper squid inedible. The sangria and staff were amazing though which was a shame!

Lovely place, great Tapas, very friendly staff

Amazing tapas, authentic flavors and quirky venue!

Food was nice service was good apart from the waitress dropping a pint of beer all over me, which wouldn't of been an issue except at least 8 of our group has food poisoning.. the next as we spoke about the night we had had it be came apparent that 8 of us had stomach cramps and the runs though the night into the next morning 🤔

Looking forward to going again 😀

Small quiet location very cozy and friendly servers. Wonderful selection of tapas and they all come with the best potatoes I think I’ve ever had. Lightly marinated in some sort of curry but they’re soft on the inside and a nice crisp on the outside. The just dip platter and the sucuk was my favorite and mixed with their bread it was good to not leave a drop of sauce behind! 5/5. Very affordable too for the quality of food. Loved our visit here 5/5!

Had a wonderful time here, the food is delicious - the wine is outstanding! Staff are friendly and attentive too. HIghly recommended!

We have been here several times, and all previous experiences were great, so we decided to take the in-laws tonight (Saturday, 18th). On arrival, we were taken to our table and handed a menu. Not even 5 minutes later, the waitress was back with a notepad asking for our order, we hadn't had time to look at the menu, so we asked to order our drinks first. Once we decided what we wanted to eat, we got the waitresses' attention and ordered our food. Our food started to come out, but we were missing one dish, we informed the waitress, and she speedily got the missing dish. I went to eat the lamb kofta skewers, and the meat was raw, not cooked inside, and it was cold (not room temp cold. It was actually cold) We informed the waitress, she was very apologetic and said she would get a replacement, 10 minutes later and we still did not have the replacement so we asked the waitress where they were, she said I will go and get them, a few minutes later, she was back with the replacement lamb kofta skewers. We ordered nachos, and they were well over done and burnt. Near the end of the meal, my father-in-law ordered a beer, but 10-15 minutes passed, and he had not received the beer. Again, we asked the waitress, and she went to get it. Apart from the issues mentioned, the rest of the food was great. It seems they had a bad day at the office, but we were very disappointed, especially as we had been telling my In-laws how good Carisma is. It is a shame, and I'm not sure if we will be back in a hurry

Lovely place full of character, the food is amazing! Staff couldn't help you enough! Highly recommended!

Quick service and great food. The interior is lovely. A great place for tapas in Leamington spa.

Great food with a nice atmosphere with friendly staff.

Beautiful Tapas and wine restaurant. The atmosphere is wonderful the food is incredible and the staff are fabulous! Service is to a very high standard along with the food. Can't wait to go again!

Went there last night to celebrate my birthday. Yes it was a Friday although it was at 8pm and less people would naturally be eating. The owner took us to the seat and we made sure that it was okay to just have a drink. He said yes but he would need to have the table in 30 mins which we happily obliged. The drinks took 10 mins to come out to us. So we then had to rush them. Within those following 20 mins. We got so many dirty looks from the bar staff and 6 of them came over to ask if we wanted food. Towards the end of the time once we had rushed our drinks because we were clearly not welcome. The owner came over and said as there was some tables leaving out back we could stay. But by then the damage had been done. The owner was nice and polite although the bar staff need to have an attitude check. Take the words “wine bar” from your advertisement if you are not willing to allow people to just have a drink in your premises.

Absolutely love this place, the food, drink, service, décor is great and well worth a visit. No complaints, we will be back, soon!

I was out as a group and went in for drinks, the service was great a warm welcome. Cocktails were also amazing. We didn't eat but I will certainly be back to try the menu.

Charisma is by far the best tapas restaurant I have ever been to whether it's a meal for two or a crowd I can highly recommend it the food is delicious, the staff are attentive and polite and always make you feel welcome don't go anywhere else if you want tapas the menu is vast something for everyone.

Not the best tapas sadly. But staff were friendly and perfect if you like pub grub. Lovely atmosphere.

Great place to dine. Nice atmosphere and a great range of food, especially vegetarian and gluten free. This was our third visit in as many months. Staff are very welcoming.

Nice tapas bar. Curious decor. Someone painting the interior must have had a gold finger. I’d prefer a place with personality and good food any day, above a clinical place with average food. The traditional Turkish sausage…. Sucuk… was my favourite tapa. The service was ok. Wine selection is also ok. I’d come back. It is one of the better restaurants on Regent street.

This wonderful gem of a restaurant is called carisma for a reason. Lovely ambience and atmosphere as soon as you walk in, and the service is stellar. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed the tapas we ordered (I would particularly recommend the saffron chicken!) and for the quality of the food and fresh ingredients, the price is excellent. We will be making this a regular haunt!

Small portions but good quality. Service from kitchen extremely slow. Had to ask three times for our pitta bread. However, the food was good

Friendly staff but not enough of them. Lengthy delays between ordering food and it reaching the table. Tasty tapas. The music needs to be changed as it is affecting the identity and the authenticity of the restaurant. Not sure why tapas bar suppose to be Spanish style have old French music like Histoire d'un amour. Just a thought 😊

Amazing food, great atmosphere, the owner was very friendly and comes to talk to you. Serves a great selection of wines to complement the food. Been twice now and would definitely recommend this restaurant

Very nice Tapas. Friendly staff and good attentive service.

Arrived 10mins late and apologised to all the waiting staff, was greeted with a dirty look from the young waitress, rudely spoken to from then on. While halfway through our meal we paused to have a chat, the young waitress came across and started to take our unfinished meal. I was completely taken aback by this. Meal was very overpriced and atmosphere was lacking energy by the waitress starring at you making you feel like you need to hurry up and leave. Please go avoid and go elsewhere.

Beware the portions are larger than tapas! Unless you are Hank Marvin……😉

Absolutely brilliant Tapas. The staff were incredibly polite and helpful. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. The staff should be congratulated for their attentive service. The Tapas choices were excellent. A wonderful experience xxx

Pretty average wine collection for a wine bar and the food was definitely not with the price. Although the tapas portion sizes were good and the service was good, I'll not be going back.

Lovely place and staff. Bit expensive at £100 for 2 people with a bottle of wine and no deserts

Friendly & efficient service, nice tapas menu with a tasty variety of non-meaty options. Speedy table service, & really nice outside seating area. Next time I'm in Leamington Spa I hope to return for another relaxed meal.

Fantastic service. Great food. Great atmosphere. Caters for vegan and gluten free. Perfect. Please improve you gluten free bread option though!

You have the best food. I like to come to you 🔥🔥 every day.

Lovely place to eat, delicious food

Fantastic food wine and atmosphere Sat in lovely courtyard in back Very pretty..

Had a really nice meal here today. We sat out in the courtyard and had the homemade red wine sangria, Mediterranean platter, salt and pepper squid, sucuk and then churros for dessert. The food was delicious and although not the cheapest was absolutely worth it! Highly recommend 😊

Visited on 24th July with friends and were seated in the courtyard. Everything was excellent. The service was speedy, friendly and discreet, the food was delicious with authentic flavours. Just loved it.
