The Basque Kitchen

Really did enjoy the whole lunchtime tapas experience. 3 of us chose from the fixed price menu,(£20 each), enabling us to have one of everything on the menu, 12 dishes. Excellent pork belly and calamari, but all the rest was very good indeed. Friendly service, will definitely go again. 10% service added automatically to bill. Food plus 4 large glasses of wine and a soft drink £106.

Really authentic tasty Basque food. So glad we visited this lively restaurant. We shared a few Tapas including a delicious grilled white asparagus which was a daily special and then followed with the 1kg forerib on the bone with chips and peppers to share - it was excellent. We sat inside, but there appears to be outdoor seating at the rear of the restaurant. Parking can be found nearby at Brunswick Road. I would say that booking is essential, particularly if you want to sit inside. Definitely highly recommended.

Popped in early on a Friday evening and got a table inside straight away, however the outside seating area was pretty busy. Staff were polite and answered questions regarding the foods and the menu. Had the experience tapas for 2, and it was lovely. It was tasty, looked fantastic and just what I'd imagined Spanish tapas to be. A few drinks with this made it a very special night.

My favourite restaurante in Cowes, Isle of WightI’m looking forward to enjoy many tapas this year again Michael and his staff make you feel at home with traditional Spanish home made food Most of the products are from the same beautiful island

Thank you to the lovely team at The Basque Kitchen.  Ventor is incredibly lucky that you chose to relocate from Cowes. Eclectic Spanish tapas including an awesome dessert menu in a truly authentic setting. We had such a great evening with you. Wishing you guys future success and hope to see you next time

Great Spanish restaurant in Cowes. We had a tapas meal of calamari, pork belly, sautéed vegetables, rolled lamb and cheesy garlic bread. Was all delicious! Deconstructed cheesecake for dessert. Very fresh food, interesting mix of tastes and friendly service. We were seated outside and there were probably 10-12 tables in total. Only reason not 5 stars is we had to wait quite a while for the order and the bill at the end, but can’t fault the food at all. It’s delicious!!

At the quieter end of Cowes is this unassuming Spanish restaurant we tried early on Wed evening. We tried their tapas of the day, aubergine, lamb terrine, prawns & patatas bravas & calamares. Best tapas this side of the Channel & will save you a ferry trip to San Sebastián. Highly recommend.

Good Spanish food on British Sea Side.. perfect. Had a great lazy long afternoon lunch at the place and was absolutely delighted. Highly recommend the marinated salmon and the croquettes. The breads were fresh and warm. The sangria was nice and light. Recommend the place for a day on the Isle.
