Portuguese music gently entertains over the speakers but remains at a comfortable background volume. The food is beautifully made and tastes exceptional although the prices are above average. The beautifully decorated rooms upstairs are reserved for the restaurant and your are served by friendly staff. The resturant produces high quality dishes cooked to perfection which can be picked from a set menu. Desert depends entirely on what they've made that day. The resturant is surprisingly quiet for it's quality but this serves to increase the relaxing atmosphere. The tapas is reccomended for an authentic Portuguese experience.

One of my favorite local restaurants in Wales. Easy to find as it is along the main road near the…read moreMenai Bridge. Paid parking is at the lot behind the street, or there's free parking before the stop light. The small plates are similar to the Spanish tapas, but the dishes serve are local specialties. Entrees ranged from 6-8£. We ordered the welsh rarebit, bread with roasted garlic (not in picture), garlic and chili king prawns, spinach broad bean pie, and slow roast lamb shoulder. The quantity is small (as it is a small plate restaurant), but 3 entrees and 2 appetizers can satisfy 3 people. Each dish was well-cooked, with its own unique taste. Definitely recommend this place, and if I'm going back to Wales, will definitely come eat here again!

Everybody feels uneasy about goats. Why do they taste sodding identical? Eating goat's cheese brings me as much joy as sniffing Big Billy Goat Gruff after he's been in the gym, something I first discovered in the restaurant that's so good they named it twice, Tapas Tapas. A combination of agreeable staff and out-of-the-way location make this the ideal place to get gradually sozzled on wine and bask in the warm wooden coziness and brick-walled splendour of a restaurant with enormous amounts of quiet humility. Still, I'd rather shoot a sprout off my dog's head with a flamethrower than try the goat's cheese again.

Despite the huge pieces of cured ham leg hangign from the ceiling a la authentic castillian restaurants I can't say that it was the best Spanish food I have tried - not even in Liverpool now that it feels our economy is based on Tapas places! At around £4 - £5 pounds for a plate this is about avaerage for a tapas restaurant, unfortauntely so was the food.

We came to Wales for a couple of weeks, hoping to find some great Welsh food. Until we found Olif,…read morewe'd had British pub food, some great Indian meals, and too many mediocre dinners. Olif is what we were looking for. Olif features some of the best food from Wales and Spain, mostly as the name says, as small plates to share. From the Spanish side we had the hummus, Seville Gordal olives and Padrona peppers. Yum. On the Welsh side we tried mussels from the Menai Straits (wow - with a sauce from cream, onions, etc. - best mussels ever), Boozy fish (the best fish and chips on the trip), Angelsey eggs (potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, cheese, ... baked in small dish - amazing). For drinks they offer curu (beer), curu seider (cider), and spirits (several gins and whiskeys) all from Welsh producers, as well as wine and other items from other countries. Each night they offer a few desserts. They're also excellent (we tried two on different nights but I've forgotten the details). The first dinner was so good we made a dinner reservation for another evening. They had a well-curated set of Welsh music playing in the background which I very much enjoyed. Some of the music was Mim Twm Llai, Rheinallt H. Rowlands, Cerys Matthews, Gwenno Saunders, Huw M, Euros Childs and Gorky's Zygotic Mynki. I tracked some of it down and am listening to it as I write this review. I listen to music from many countries but until Olif had never heard any music from Wales. Good listening! Olif has a limited number of tables - make a reservation to avoid disappointment. On our first night there we were the last people for dinner, and we watched a number of other people turned away. While enjoying dinner we discovered they also are a B&B and have five rooms (all with an ensuite bathroom if I recall correctly). On, one more thing. They offer a smaller tapas menu until 4pm and change to the dinner menu after that. If you get there at quarter til you can enjoy items from both menus. Great food and great people! Of all the restaurants we tried in Wales over our two weeks, this was the most delightful of all. Highly recommended.
