Lovely glass of Rioja wine and a Spanish beer to compliment our meal. Atmosphere was really relaxed. We will definitely be back for a meal again in the near future. Well done to all at La Taberna, muchas gracias.”
“Warm and welcoming cosy restaurant, super friendly staff greeted us as a family immediately we arrived. Great choice of tapas on the menu, we ordered a couple of starters and about 7 tapas dishes between the 3 of us. All the food was of the highest quality, a real highlight being the lamb cutlets that were melt-in-the-mouth tender.”

“First visit back inside and we had the pleasure of trying out the new tapas menu yesterday and it was fantastic! The menu works perfectly if you want a light bite alongside your drinks but also has plenty of options on the menu to make a great pub meal out - as meat eaters we tried most of the fish/meat options which were all presented well and tasted delicious. There was also plenty on the menu for vegetarians and even a nice selection of desserts!”
“Booked a tapas ,side and cocktail deal for 2. Excellent! Pigs cheeks and meatballs along with the truffle chips were superb and the pornstar martinis too! Bread and butter pudding and cheesecake backed it up well!”

Where: 36-38 The Calls Calls Landing Building, Leeds LS2 7EW
Rating: 4.5/5
Here is what some customers had to say about Ambiente Tapas Restaurant:
“Honestly the best tapas I’ve had in a very long time. We had 9 different dishes between us and they were all great. Cant fault the food at all.”
“All the dishes were absolutely delicious - our party of 6 all agreed it was some of the best tapas we’d ever had, and for an excellent price versus some other places! The seafood paella is a must, it was amazing. One of our party was coeliac and the waitress was so helpful and reassuring - although some dishes were fried with gluten, she suggested plenty of alternatives and we all left full.”

My daughter and I enjoyed a selection of vegetable and meat dishes including croquettes, caramelised chorizo, spiced beef, mushrooms and patatas bravas. We episodically enjoyed the Catalonian bread starter. The waiter was patient with our choices, and brought everything out fresh and hot as it was ready.”
