What a fantastic experience at Grapevine Kilkenny! The atmosphere was warm and lively, the service friendly and attentive, and the food absolutely delicious. We tried several dishes, but the highlight for us was definitely the paella — perfectly cooked, full of fresh seafood, rich flavours, and that authentic Spanish touch that made us feel like we were on holiday. The tapas were all beautifully presented and bursting with taste, especially the prawns with chorizo and the patatas bravas.
The wine list is impressive too, with great Spanish options that pair perfectly with the food. The staff were so kind, taking the time to recommend both dishes and wines, which really made our evening special.
A wonderful place to relax, enjoy amazing food, and soak up the great vibe. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely be back soon!

We walked in for dinner here on a Saturday around 5:30pm. No issues for a table.
It's a really lovely tapas and wine restaurant - many wine options and a decent variety of tapas. We ordered 6 tapas and a salad for 3 of us (2adult one kid) and it was probably a little too much. Everything tasted good - the most outstanding was the risotto, tuscan salad, and chorizo - and the hummus was AMAZING.
Really comfortable atmosphere, great decor, super nice service. Would definitely recommend if tapas/wine are your thing.

The meatballs are presented with a delicious tomato sauce. The chicken skewers were a bit overcooked and dry but were serviced with a lovely honey/ginger/soy sauce.

¡Una comida realmente hermosa, definitivamente pedimos demasiado!
El paté era el plato más agradable, solo la decepción era la tabla de queso, por casi 30 € la tabla de queso era escasa con una selección mínima de queso regular como solo cheddar y galletas saladas.

They took myself and my girlfriend in as a walk-in and the service and food was amazing! Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a bit of everything, in the center of Kilkenny! Price was fair, and the food was great quality.

Absolutely stunning food. The stuffed jalapenos are so creamy. Meatballs are unbelievable, so tender and bursting with flavour! The chorizo and potatoes are just epic too. 10/10! Very impressed

Var her en stille og rolig aften og fik fremragende betjening og fremragende mad. Den bestilte vin var flad og gik tilbage, men fik så en udmærket erstatning og en undskyldning af ejeren. Vi bestilte velsmagende tapas og sluttede denne gode oplevelse af med en udmærket dessert. The Grapevine får vores varmeste anbefalinger, og vi kommer gerne igen!
