Small and cozy place, a little too cozy for some as some tables in the food and dining area are placed very close to each other. One can easily and unwillingly eavesdrop on the conversation happening on the next table.

We had the pre-theatre menu @34.50, plus three glasses of wine which were reasonably priced. The food was very good, as was the service. Half of the diners appeared to be regulars, which is always a good sign. The basement is an intimate space, so avoid if you are claustrophobic! We enjoyed La Cava and will go back.
Update Oct 2026
We did go back, and it was just as good as before. Well done LA CAVE!

Really loved this space, it's cosy and intimate, great for catching up with someone, a small group dinner, or a date. Loved the atmosphere and thought the food was top notch. The French Onion soup was a real highlight.
Dessert cheese board at the end was a little lacking, but everything else was fantastic and highly recommend.

Even better than the food was the wine... The choice was practically endless. We drank reds from Puglia and Spain, and a white from California. Everything was very good, and reasonably priced for Ireland.

Original Dublin wine bar, hardly.changed in 20 years or more. Small, but a great atmosphere.

La Cave Wine Bar delivers an unforgettable dining experience in Dublin. The food was exceptional across the board, with standout starters like the salmon gravlax and duck liver pate. For mains, the duck, lamb, and fish dishes were just perfect both in flavor and presentation.
Our waiter, Jean, was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. To top it off, the wine list is simply impressive—boasting multiple pages of exquisite selections with something tailored for basically every palate. La Cave Wine Bar is an absolute must-visit.
