Solas Tapas & Wine

By contrast to our review of the other Michelin recommended restaurant in Dingle ... this place is spot on ... even better than we expected, despite glowing accolades heading into. Solas is outstanding. We ordered 5 dishes -- all were amazing. Indeed, the sardines were best I have ever eaten, but the other four courses, really all fantastic. Absolutely can see why this place gets a nod from Michelin.

Our first time eating at this darling restaurant and I can see why there are so many positive reviews. The food is very fresh, and the choices are endless. Left not feeling hungry, which is sometimes the downfall of tapas. The staff was efficient, helpful and friendly. I highly recommend it.

Solas is a real gem in Dingle, offering top-quality tapas that are perfect for sharing. The food is outstanding—fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. With a great variety of small plates, it’s an ideal spot for groups who love to try a bit of everything. What really sets Solas apart is the exceptional service. The staff are warm, attentive, and make you feel right at home. If you’re looking for a relaxed yet top-notch dining experience in Dingle, this is the place to

A great dinner experience. The deep room is cosy and lively in the evenings and the all-female serving staff are warm and professional. Standout dishes were toasted sourdough with confit tomatoes (a great take on the usual ‘pan con tomat’) and sardine on cracker (a very sophisticated dish which would not be out of place in a fine-dining restaurant). All food was excellent, showcasing Irish ingredients and very good cooking skills.

Tasty, well made food, with creative flavors and obviously fresh ingredients. The staff were pleasant and the atmosphere was nice. We were visiting from Canada and we're very happy to see this quality of food being served in little Dingle. I am gluten free and they were more than happy to accommodate. Kudos to the staff.

Everything was delicious especially enjoyed the fig tempura and confit tomatoes. Staff were lovely and accommodating

Wonderful food in Tapas style. Share some plates and have a great experience! At a great and justified price!

I've been here a number of times now (including twice in the one weekend because it's so good) and it always hits the mark. The service is very friendly and efficient and the food is out of this world! Highly recommend the pork belly, the croquettes, and the fig tempura. The ceviche is also excellent. Already planning my return.

Wonderful warm welcome by a member of staff yesterday, was dining with friends and it was my first visit . The restaurant is cosy , intimate and energizing. The food was delicious, very very tasty and its presentation was exquisite. Kudos to the Chef and the very attentive staff. I highly recommend this Dingle Gem , it's top class.

Fun and delicious little tapas restaurant in Dingle! Loved all the fresh local seafood and Spanish preparation by the chef! Would definitely recommend!

Hands down some of the best food I've ever eaten. Everything was cooked perfectly and we could not stop eating. The lamb chops topped with sheep cheese was one of the best creations ever. Service and vibe were spot on too

Hosted a dinner at Solas in late October. Highly recommend for it's exceptional tapas and friendly, professional staff!

Great little tapas place in Dingle. The restaurant is very cute with not a ton of tables. The wait staff was attentive and helpful. The cheese board and sourdough tomato salad were delicious! They had a good wine list as well. I'd recommend this as a cool stop to eat in Dingle.

Some of the best food I've had in Dingle. Delicious, fresh, and gorgeously plated. Staff courteous and professional. Place has a nice vibe to it. Make sure you have a reservation. Can't recommend this place more. Very good.

Wonderful tapas bar. Food was excellent and the service was fantastic. Owner was so hospitable and the atmosphere superb. Highly high recommend

What a nice little find in this quaint little town. Decent tapas in the Irish countryside? We'll take it. We stopped in here for dinner without reservations. Grabbed one of the two tables out front on the street. The space inside is small and cozy but we like watching the world go by. It's on a little back street so the views are quaint and it's fairly quiet. The food here is tasty, especially compared to the standard Irish pub fare that you're probably eating as you travel across this beautiful country. A nice break from brown stew and burgers. We enjoyed an array of tasty tapas served up with some quality wine. The service was friendly and prompt, and they helped my vegetarian wife navigate the menu to find plenty of great offerings. As with most tapas places, be prepared to spend more than you would on your usual one-entree-per-person. But it's totally worth it here for the flavor and quality of food. Yum!

Delicious! A hidden gem and a refreshing twist from traditional Irish cuisine in Dingle. So happy we stopped in. Everything was bursting with flavor! It's a tapas bar so order at least three things from the menu, you won't be disappointed!

One of our favorite meals in Ireland actually, from a tapas place in Dingle! The restaurant was small and charming, service was friendly, and the food was delicious. The tomato confit on charred sourdough was a great choice to provide a break from the richness of everything else that we choose. The confit was served cool, but the bread was warm and perfectly toasted, and the combination was lovely. The maharaees spuds with mushrooms were perfectly cooked; a touch crispy on the outside but soft inside, and the spices were noticeable but not overwhelming (paprika and garlic seemed to be in the mix, but not too strongly). We also got a very nice crispy duck make-your-own bao with slaw and sauce that was great. The duck managed to be a touch crispy but without being dry, and the ratio of bun, duck, slaw, and sauce was perfect. The only thing that wasn't really what we were looking for was dessert, but that was us mis-reading the menu; Farranfor Strawberry and Prosecco Sorbet was Strawberry-Prosecco sorbet, not strawberries with some prosecco sorbet. The strawberry-prosecco sorbet was delicious though!

We were lucky to have dinner at Solas Tapas. The food was incredibly delicious and well balanced. The chef was very friendly and humbly talented. What takes Solas beyond 5 stars is the service. Our waitress was very informative of wine and the menu. Most importantly, she was really kind to us and to our daughters. We had a wonderful time from start to finish. Thank you very much for a memorable evening.

Wow what a nice find. We didn't want a large amount of food. Perfect portions and wine. What could be better?

We stumbled upon Solas while touring Dingle peninsula and couldn't have been happier. The food is amazing. Everything we ate was incredible - we were quite full and still ordered more to try other items from the menu. The staff was friendly and welcoming as well. You will not be disappointed!
