Salamanca Tapas Restaurant,
St Andrew Street,
Dublin,
Ireland
High quality tapas in a convenient central location
My favourite restaurant in Dublin for several years now has been Salamanca. Being a tapas restaurant, it’s all about sharing and tasting. I normally recommend 2.5 dishes per person if you’re up for a good feed. Again with the whole tasting thing, it’s better with a big group, and you would soon find that 20-25 dishes between 10 people would disappear fast.
Specific dishes that should not be missed are:
- Lamb cutlets - don’t bother with a knife and fork, let your caveman instinct come out and eat with your hands!
- Asparagus with serrano ham - tender asparagus, brimming with flavour
- Deep-fried goats cheese with salsa - I’ve never met anyone who didn’t like this dish!
- Pollo al ajillo - chicken in a creamy garlicky sauce - yummy!
Save some room for dessert if you can - the profiteroles and the creme brulee come highly recommended!
