Have eaten there several times both with and without guests.  Have never been disappointed and have discovered flavor combinations that I've never tasted before.

Comfortable ambiance and thoughtful wine selection.  Really good prices for the quality of the food.

Michael and Arielle have hit it just right!

BTW, start with the olive tapanade!

Michael is definately a cool guy.  He was at the Mellow hearing to speak in favor of the vibrancy new businesses bring to the neighborhood and talked about how hard it already was to open a business without artificially limiting competition by indiscriminate means, if you remember Stephen.  He gets it.  We need more young entrepreneurs like him and his sister in this city!!

We had our cash mob in Five Points there.  Recently Michael held a great benefit night for Movember, donating 10pct of his sales to Movember Jax and even donated some wine bottles that were auctioned off.  The lady friend wrote about the place in a previous article:

Really glad to have Tapa That in Five Points!!
