We came for lunch and they were full. Made reservations for dinner. If you want to go here, you should reserve!! It is quite popular. We started with Croquettes mixed. Four were cuttlefish and cream bread mix. Excellent. Super creamy and moist on inside. Five pieces were ham and cheese bread mix. Also very good. Tasted like a scallop potato. Both melted in your mouth. The second appetizer was Seared tuna. It was so good we dove in and forgot to photograph. They were perfectly seared with pepper crust and the twist was that it was also slightly marinated in a beef broth. Extra salty but good.

Read moreTuesday night 23 rd of January all is quiet on the streets of Mérida early evening. There's a beacon of light a bar/restaurant where there's sign of life. Run run... the place is nearly full already and it's only just after 8 pm early for dinner no?
Great decision and we're greeted with a warm welcome from Juan Pedro..the start of a relationship the night is young...

All around us happy clients adding to the ambiance. I highly recommend this place thank you so much Juan Pedro for your patience and...
Read moreDifficult to share a rating of a restaurant/tapas terrace without having tried the food or drink, but having experienced the service once I can at least speak to that aspect. I arrived at 8:30 for some tapas and a drink, and was given a table inside as requested. I then watched for 15 minutes as table after table was seated, drink orders taken and filled, food orders taken, without a glance at me. This prompted me to leave. On my way to Carbonería Tapas to see if they'll notice me. On the plus side, Sybarit appears to provide wonderful drinks and food to most customers, I confess I looked on with some (drooling) envy as several food orders were delivered in my...
