This place has been around for ages, and for good reason. Extensive tapas menu, good wine list, cozy atmosphere and a great location. We keep going back.

Lovely quiet, pretty spot for tapas and drinks. In the heart of Dublin, staff are friendly and food is served very well. One of our dishes never arrived but the staff made sure to get it to our table quickly. One small thing I noticed...was some of the prices were different then on their menu, would be nice to get an updated version of the menu out.More
Great atmosphere, tiny (cozy) tables. Good food .It was packed on a Friday night, located as it is in a busy area. I would recommend reserving a table.
3rd time here this year and have been meaning to write a review. This time I went with 3 pals for early dinner. What really strikes me about here is the friendliness and efficiency of the staff. Smiles and eye contact can often be an...optional extra in some restaurants but not here. Also, tapas by its nature involves lots of plates and dishes. No problem here! And obviously I love the food! Bravo 👏More
Fabulous meal, quick service. We were so glad we found this place in a lovely area in Dublin. Every dish was tasty. Our favourites were the mixed patatas, and my daughter adored the puntillitas. Deffo recommend.
Wow! Discovered by accident whilst wandering, stopped for a glass of wine and cheese and olive snack before dinner, blown away, came straight back after dinner for cheese and port. Highly recommend the Vintage port with Picon and Manchego cheese and honey! Delicious.
I was looking for a place to eat near the drop-off point of our day trip tour and was intrigued by what I read about this place. It exceeded our expectations. The ambiance is charming, the food is excellent (and very vegetarian friendly) , service...was attentive, and it was a very good value. We were lucky to score a walk-in table at 5:30 on a Sunday evening, but the place quickly filled up, so I suggest booking ahead to prevent disappointment.More
We had a very nice dinner here. Remarkable how the tapas craze has come and gone in America but the Irish and English are still at it. The food here is good and the ambience is fun if noisy because of the long narrow space....It can be difficult to make yourself heard although that may have been at least partially a function of the rambunctious crowd one evening. We enjoyed everything we ordered and did not regret the dining choice.More
Charming venue Pleasant staff (however they ignored our negative comments) Poor quality and preparation of food. Mayonnaise in my opinion is not aioli. Galician bread (prob French baguette) not toasted, mushrooms reheated. No red wine jus with duck cannelloni Chickpeas served with 1 teeny weeny...slice of chorizo, not much evidence of piquillo peppers, no parsley. Big profit margin on this dish.More
Dear Anne Thank you for your comments. We are disappointed to read that you did not enjoy the food. We have been running Tapas restaurants in Dublin for 17 years and all of our recipes are authentic with many ingredients being imported directly from Spain...More
I was a bit surprised by the thick atmosphere of this dimly lit, cavernous restaurant, even for lunch on a weekday. Small tea candles and wine bottles lined the cool stone walls, and gave my dining experience a pleasant, but almost uncomfortably romantic flavor. The...tapas menu is vast and quite affordable given the neighborhood and portion sizes. In enjoyed the manchego burger and paella. Two tapas with a drink (including beer, wine, and sangria) is just 15 euro for lunch. Service was excellent and the food was good. I'd be curious to return in the late evening during a more traditional tapas hour.More
We flew-in to Dublin on a Thursday night and everything was closed to walk-ins, requiring a reservation. Naturally, we were dramatically starving to death and walking from rejection to rejection at 9:30pm in the cold rain. These people saved me, and I love them desperately...for it. They sat us immediately and gave us killer wine with great food. Thanks so much! And thank you Cara for the family like service.More
We enjoyed our dinner at The Port House. The menu offered a large range of meat and vegetarian tapas as well as desserts. Service was friendly, and the meal represented a good value.
The restaurant is quite dark, making it hard to see the menu in some seats, but atmospheric. Our waiter was helpful in identifying drinks similar to our choices. The food was delicious.
We ate here again recently and as always the food was really good but I have to say a special word about the staff and how well they seem to work together. It might be a small thing but to see genuine camaraderie as staff...arrived/ departed was really nice. I know it’s not always the case in other establishments. Well done to the team.More
Back in Dublin and back to The Port House after 8 years and its just as good as it ever was. Fabulous food, lovely staff who are happy to advise with choices. Delicious wine and very reasonable prices. What's not to love.
