Las Tapas de Lola

“Very impressed with the food and the service here. Walked in and immediately got a table with no reservation (which, after reading reviews here, meant we were very lucky). The atmosphere was lively, and the staff were really friendly. Everything we had was delicious: boquerones (anchovies), ensalada de pulpo (octopus), gulas (baby eels), and higado (lamb liver). I loved that I could order such unusual options! The sangria was refreshing during this heat wave. Now I want to travel to Spain.”

“Holy cow, who knew Dublin was such a foodie city? Tonight it was tapas, and I keep forgetting to photograph all the dishes before devouring them. We had cured tuna in olive oil (the oil was divine), padrón peppers, eggplant with a *very* dark & tasty honey, shrimp in a smoky chili-garlic sauce, calamari with a creamy garlic sauce, and crema Catalán for dessert. The two owners, Vanessa & Anna run an extremely well-oiled business, and everyone was just so, so nice! If I lived here I'd go every week and try something different each time. Absolutely one of the nicest meals of our trip so far. Definitely book ahead, as the place is cozy and packed to the eaves. A restaurant for the gods!”

“Fantastic experience at Tapas de Lola. It genuinely felt like being back in Spain. The food was incredibly fresh, made with proper Spanish ingredients, and the sangria was spot on. The place was packed and fully booked, but still had such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. A special mention to the two owners, who were incredibly kind and made my partner’s birthday feel extra special. Authentic food, great vibes, and wonderful hospitality. We’ll definitely be back.”

“I rarely review places, but this is an experience I would truely recommend to anyone. The food is incredible. We loved the classics like chorizo or gambas, but what stood out most was the pigs cheek (at their recommendation). I will be dreaming about that taste for a while! But besides good food, what made this so special is the staff. They don't just greet you with a polite smile, they are super friendly and are genuinely interested in providing you with the best possible time. We felt like we were visiting old friends. 10/10 would recommend and will go again!”

“Delicious tapas, good service and great buzz. Highly recommend. Pork cheeks, garlic prawns, beef & potato croquettes, and Tortilla were the stand out plates during our visit. Great drinks and dessert selection too”

“Gem of a place to eat at. Recommend eating at this Tapas restaurant. Booking highly recommended since this place is consistently busy, whilst we were eating we saw a large number of people turn away, since all tables were booked. Very relaxing environment to just eat and chat with friends and family. The waiter services is fantastic and you can rally feel the passion to dilvery a great dinning experience and top quality food. All the food we had we shared between two people and we ordered around 8 dish between 4 adults. All dish were presented nicely, but the tasty was sensational. We took a 20 minutes walk from temple Bar area, it was worth the journey. Thank for a great Dinning experience for my family on our trip to Dublin.”

“Absolutely love the vibe of this place it seems authentic and makes for a great atmosphere! We came here to celebrate our anniversary, and while there were some highlights, there were also a few disappointments. The Highlights: • Food & Presentation: The food was very yummy, flavorful, and beautifully presented. • Welcome Drink: A very pleasant and thoughtful touch to start the meal. The Drawbacks: • Service: Unfortunately, they forgot one of our tapas. We asked for it and unfortunately it took a time to finally arrived. Until then our appetite had faded. • Noise Level: The restaurant is very loud, which made having a romantic anniversary conversation quite difficult. Tip: This place is very busy, so a reservation is highly recommended!”
