The best restaurants serving Mediterranean food in Warwick West Midlands

We don't live in the area and came across this restaurant online when looking for somewhere to meet friends for lunch, for my birthday. As soon as you walk through the door, you get the lovely vibe of Spanish tapas. It's a modern, stylish setting, but remains comfortable & authentic. There's a great choice of tapas dishes on the menu, as well as main courses, and a varied choice of cocktails, beer, wine, & soft drinks. Service was quick, but not rushed. The dishes were obviously cooked to order, but came out in good time, all together, were hot and full of flavour. We felt very relaxed and had a wonderful lunch. Our friends who live locally will be bringing other people back!

Well, what can I say? Possibly the best restaurant I've partaken at and I've eaten at some amazing European Restaurants in my time including in Milan which takes some beating. Gerald welcomed me and immediately offered wine - I asked for a Pinot G. and he said no, have a glass of Flores De Catalina - which I had, and from on, I just did what I was told, lol. Fab wine - great learning curve. Bettina who was assisting came onto the scene in this small, elegant, friendly, and down-to-earth restaurant that in my opinion outranked all the restaurants I tried in Warwick. It's a set menu and you have what you are given (of course they ask about allergies). Six courses as follows on this particular evening: 1. Heritage tomatoes with pine nuts and crunchy stuff - how can toms taske so wonderful - OMG - and they did 2. Peruvian tuna sushi style - my tastbuds did an overture on this dish - wow! 3. Crazy Meatball with Mascarpone sauce, smoked cheese and hummus - gorgeous dish. 4. Crevettes to die for - prepared to get in a mess but you get little sachets of wipes. 5. Can't quite read my description notes on this but something like: Lamb shoulder, goats cheese and buttery truffle - which basically Gerald said was equivalent to a posh shepherds pie - posh? You bet - it was orgasmic. 6. Dessert - lemon posset with limoncello and lemon shortbread - wow. I'm not really into sweet things but this was an exeption. Along the way had several more glasses of the excellent wine. Chatted with Gerald and Bettina and have to say they made my solo visit to their restaurant extremely enjoyable. Wear loose clothing and prepare to diet. PS - The proprietor was kind enough to thank me via text for this review. He had my number I texted the restaurant the booking. And 'thank you' shows how good this restaurant is.

A lovely little cafe with no-nonsense food, a friendly atmosphere and truly excellent chips.

Managed to get a table with no booking on a very busy Saturday night with a limit and it was the best decision, honestly the food is delicious the place is beautiful and the staff are so so friendly and nice definitely recommend 10/10

Excellent service from the start to finish from Azeem and Farha who were polite, accommodating and enthusiastic. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, quiet as we arrived late. There were numerous vegan options to choose from and the food was quick to be served. All the mezze dishes sampled were excellent, highlights have to be the falafel, batata harra and fattoush salad (which was exceptional, I would return for this dish alone). Some great mocktails on offer too. Don't miss this gem!

Amazing food and and friendly staff with a lovely atmosphere. Tapas was fantastic would highly recommend for all social events.

This was recommended by friends and what a great find t was. As we walked through the door, immediately greeted and "looked after". Very welcoming and friendly. Food was excellent, prompt and service good. This was our first visit and certainly wont be our last when looking to eat in Leamington Spa.

Visited for lunch, the restaurant was not busy. One of my party cannot eat dairy. The menu had DF items marked on the menu but the waiter was unable to answer our questions. When we asked for dips on the side he said, on several occasions, that the chef was busy and he didn’t want to make him angry so he would do what he could. One dish didn’t arrive and he had to ask for it again. When I got home I realised another of our dishes did not even turn up. The food was mediocre and the service, re knowledge of the menu and helpfulness, was poor. I have been to Tartine many times and always had great food and service. I am not sure whether I will return.

We really enjoyed our recent visit, having been recommended by a friend. The staff were very friendly, providing excellent service. Food was delicious. The lamb fricassee melted in the mouth, and the gemista (stuffed veg) were rich and flavourful. Finished off with scrumpy desserts. We'll come back next time we're in town.

Came for dinner and went for the standard tapas. It’s was I think a 9 courser !! Food was really good and the service was excellent in terms of speed and the way they describe exactly what was on each plate. The only tiny thing that could have been better was the wine list. It was a bit limited

Writing this review on the way having just left as felt compelled to share and provide feedback on a very poor Sunday lunch. The experience was poor from outset, seated at the little table by the door to the restaurant, Could barely get in to the pew seat and I’m only little, but cosy enough I suppose once you manage to get in. Waited a long time to order, tried to get the attention of the young lad serving the table behind us and politely called out excuse me twice but got ignored. We went up to the bar to order and they sent someone over straight away. Only at this point did we discover the pork had ran out which was what my partner wanted to order and no cauliflower cheese which we also wanted. Ordered two beef roasts, and drinks. The food came quite quickly to be fair however we still hadn’t got our drinks when our food arrived. Long delay after requesting condiments until we received them, half way in to the meal and this included the salt and pepper. You got to have salt with beef! The main problem was the meal itself. Have no problem paying £22 for a beef roast if it is a good roast however the portion was so poor we left feeling quite frankly ripped off and hungry! The meal consisted of 4 small roast potatoes (so 2 total potatoes cut in half), 2 long pieces of carrot, Yorkshire pud (which credit where it is due was large and nice - couldn’t fault that) , a dash of gravy and ‘seasonal veg’ consisting of peas with a few small pieces of leek. This is not seasonal and is just the cheap option. What happened to proper veg!? Good old broccoli, cauliflower cabbage and a decent proper portion of carrots!? My meal was very dry but I did not want to ask for any more gravy as it had took 3 attempts to get a working salt mill to the table which the waitress told me was working and demonstrated this by pouring a very tiny amount of salt in to her hand. I had tried this moments before and it hadn’t worked. Overall we spent just shy of £50 for a very poor Sunday lunch and sadly won’t be coming back. It’s such a shame as we used to love it here but this was our first visit in quite a long time and we were so disappointed. 10% service charge is now added on to all tables as well not just tables over 6.
