Absolutely gorgeous food, staff are lovely aswell
K. M.
Exceptional ambience. Spacious outdoor with apple trees. Staffs are well behaved. The quantity of the food is bit little compare to price. But its a worth visiting in Carlow town.
Will love to have some quality times in weekends.
T. L.
Excellent service, great food and a lovely outdoor area. They also have gluten free options & a gluten free beer on the menu.
D. L.
Really friendly staff! They seated us earlier at our request with no issue. Tapas were yummy. Service was good. Would highly recommend
J. C.
Amazing - the food (wow)the service , the atmosphere. Particularly loved the outside area with blankets and twinkly lights. So many good things to say about the food I actually don't know where to start! If you haven't been you are missing out.

Cannot fault Mimosa, my friends and I have nothing but praise for this establishment and for the staff. Beautifully finished and maintained, with a wonderful ambience. Outstanding dishes, particularly the seafood range. Knowledgeable and attentive staff who handled our boisterous group with nothing but friendliness and patience. We cannot wait to dine here again, thanks to all at Mimosa!

1st time at Mimosa's Bar de Tapas and will not be the last fabulous food lovely atmosphere and very well looked after reasonably priced.I would recommend it to every body who enjoys going out for a meal.

Myself and my partner have been a fan of Mimosa for quite sometime, we travelled from Cork for the first time to eat out in our favourite tapas bar since 2019, and our first meal indoors this year . As per usual, the food, drinks and atmosphere were excellent. However, for the first time ever the service had let us down. At the door we were greeted by a lovely lady, and another showed us to our seats. Our server for the night however, let us down greatly. The dark haired young lady was very brunt and loud initially. After placing our order we saw very little of her, we were left with no cutlery until our food was already put and another server had tended to us. she came back about an hour later and left another tables dirty plates on our table! Thankfully another waitress was very helpful and cleared our table, as well as bringing us desert menus and topping up our dry glasses! When we asked for the bill we were left with a long wait and then another long wait before our payment was taken. If the restaurant was extremely busy I could understand, but at this time there weren’t many patrons indoors.
But yet again, we had a very pleasant experience with all other members of staff, many with the brightest smiles beneath their masks!

I've been a fan since first eating here 6 years ago but this is my first time there since Covid started. As usual the service was excellent and I was pleasantly surprised at the number of gluten free options on the menu. Really excellent tapas but, unfortunately the gluten free options were very salty. But, you have to try the baby pork ribs, the best around. Covid protocols fully observed which was great to see. Will definitely be back. Great value too.
C. L.
Lovely food and lovely staff. Overall, great experience.
P. D.
Lovely food and wine. Good staff. Nice place

Excellent food, friendly staff, great atmosphere. Can't wait to go back
A. S.
Very good place to visit. If you are fan of sharing a food and to try lots of well made tapas this is the place where you should go. We waited 1h for a table in waiting room enjoing coctails. After when we got the table we ordered 10 different tapas. All of them were so tasty and nice served. We really enjoyed the night in Mimosa and will go over there again for sure. The girls are very nice and friendly. Atmosphere is cool and relaxing too. Really happy with our visit.

Absolutely amazing food every time! Favourite place to eat!

R. S.
The best place to eat in Carlow. The food is unreal, the staff is very friendly!!! If I could, I'll give more than 5 stars👌👌👌🔝🔝🔝.
J. F.
Really loved this place when we went there last summer when I was entertaining some guests. Had a table in the garden and the food and service was excellent. Unfortunately, I've had to deduct a star because I recently ordered a take away and I'm afraid the food doesn't travel as well as actually being there. It won't stop me going back there though. I'll update this review once I'm able to have a dining in experience which these guys are very good with.
UPDATE: Managed to get a table booked at the restaurant last night and as I suspected, the quality and service was absolutely amazing. Great job guys can't wait to see you again :-)
C. A.

T. G.
Amazing food and drinks options.
D. S.
Had a absolutely gorgeous night here with family and friends. Lovely food, our friends from Northern Ireland, thought it was the nicest food they have ever tasted! Great wines and lovely gins. The atmosphere is great and premises, between garden and bar next door to restaurant are exceptional. Such a lovely place to meet friends to eat, drink and be merry!
R. D.
Went in with my wife for drinks in the cocktail bar first. I wasn’t disappointed. We had amazing cocktails at a very good price. We had such a great laugh with a man called Oscar. He just made us feel so welcome and recommend drinks for us. The ambiance of the bar alone was of a warm, spotless and welcoming feeling. Will definitely be returning in the future.10/10
D.
Lovely place with great food - it was our first time having tapas but won't be our last. The food was amazing, really tasty dishes although I did feel a bit guilty eating Skippy but it just tasted so good.
Highly recommend a visit here as soon as you can.
G. B.
on a recent trip to West Wicklow my friends and I drove to Carlow after reading the reviews for this restaurant. it did NOT disappoint..the selection of choices..the presentation given it was takeaway..the quality of each individual tapas we ordered was all just five stars..thank you ..it was such a treat in these crazy times.
A. G.
Awesome food and ambiance.. Highly recommend!! And if want value for money.. Go in early bird time...
c. k.
We just had an amazing food experience. Never had tapas before but we will definitely be having them again. Mimosa is great and we were so lucky with our lovely server Laura! She was really helpful and her menu recommendations were spot on.
l. d.
Absolutely fantastic tapas restaurant with a great selection of food and wine. The place was jam packed on a Wednesday night so book early! The staff were fantastic and the food was delicious. Served in a relaxed atmosphere when the kitchen had it ready, so be prepared to relax and chat and eat as the food arrives rather than all at once. Will definitely be back!
m. s.
Great little spot in Carlow. Too quality tapas that rivals some of the spots in Dublin. Really nice atmosphere and decor in the place. If you're waiting on your table, they have an amazing speak easy type bar at the side for some cocktails and other drinks. If you're ordering the kangaroo be prepared to wait, I think they head to Australia to get it!
B. J.
The place itself it’s so magical. It’s takes you to a place in Spain, (not like you’re in the depts of Carlow town) the most amazing staff, that go above and beyond for the restaurant. The only place I want to go on date night or with my friends, just AMAZING. Oscar is the most amazing host and a fantastic person to talk to with amazing stories. I can not recommend it enough ❤️
D. C.
It's not often that a restaurant ticks all the boxes, however Mimosa has achieved it.
Their dining areas are beautifully decorated with cosy nooks and soft lighting. Their patio & garden are also a perfect setting for your dining experience.
Their menu is Tapas inspired with some creative Asian and other cuisine infusions. We ordered 7 different dishes, each one presented impeccably and all were delicious.
Our Portugese server Elder was very friendly, efficient & attentive. He's a great ambassador for Mimosa's business.
I would encourage the owners to have one or two draft beers available, perhaps one Spanish brand.
We look forward to enjoying Mimosa again very soon.
s. h.
Mimosa is definitely our favorite restaurant. We have dined here a huge number of times and it has never failed to deliver a top class customer experience every single time. On the merits of its food alone , the place is in a league of its own. Tapas to die for. But its much more than good food that makes Mimosa. Staff are warm , welcoming and very customer focused. The setting and decor is uniquely fitting with Mediterranean feel. Wine always hits the spot with great selection of excellent wines. All in all , if your in Carlow and fancy something different then give Mimosa a try. I guarantee you will not be disappointed
D. C.
Such a special place. Food is always amazing, staff friendly and super helpful. Never disappoints
L. N.
Probably our favourite place to eat in Carlow! The staff are out on their own, the food is amazing!! The cocktails are definitely the best in town. Everyone is always so welcoming and accomodating. I couldn't say enough good things about Mimosa!
J. H.
Nice food, downside is they won't take a booking for less than 6 people. So you book through an app and wait.. I understand its supposed to create some allure or idea of exclusivity but the food/service isn't good enough to warrant it. Waitress forgot an item from our order and wait times between servings were verging on silly, multiple times we found ourselves looking around going.. "Really? This isnt the only thing we want to do tonight." and because the waitress forgot the last item we were sitting basically waiting on nothing for like 15-20 minutes before I asked where our last item was..
Food was nice, desserts were actualy amazing its an interesting experience and nice atmosphere that's why I rated it 3 stars rather than 2. But the silly booking proccess long wait between dishes and the mistake on behalf of the waitress just mean I most likely won't be back.
M. K. J. K.
A well deserved 5☆ rating. Best tapas bar in Carlow. A place who not only cares about their customers but have a true passion for food. From the minute you walk in, you feel like you are part of the Mimosa family as the staff are so friendly and professional. The variety of tapas are exceptional whether you are a meat, fish or vegetarian lover. You feel like you're on holidays and want to stay for the night. Delicious cocktails, exceptional selection of wines and non alcoholic drinks. A definite must for any food lover.
A. K.
AGAIN we had a fantastic night in Mimosa. it is one of our favourite places to dine, great food, fantastic ambiance, and very attentive and efficient staff. Last nite we met the owner Oscar who is an inspirational Business Man very pleasant, welcoming and gracious. Thank you Mimosa

U. L. K.
BEST RESTAURANT IN IRELAND!!!! Seriously the service is next level, the food will make you drool and the atmosphere is simply stunning, sit outside in the summer if you can. 10/10 this should have a michelin star!
M. J.
One of the best, if not the best, tapas bars ever. The food is amazing, customer service is very rapid and smooth. I've been there many times and I intend to go back for more. It's great quality for money. The decor is tasteful, the overall ambiance is great. There are numerous vegetarian options on the menu and vegan on request. The portions are rather big with everything being extremely flavoursome. I couldn't recommend this place any more!
T. O.
Excellent food, everything was fresh and delicious, can't wait for the lock down to end and dine in.
K. C.
Absolutely fantastic place, social distancing, clean,great staff and the food is outstanding.We had about ten different plates between 2 of us including desert,from start to finish mouth watering flavours,lovely light food,we both left Mimosa very satisfied and discussing what we will have on our next visit.Highly recommended.
Y. S.
Food was delicious and service was very when the food was coming but you barely got the last fork full off your dish and it was whipped from in front you i have never experienced this in all the places i have eaten before...
I have to say I felt the quicker they got your money and got you out the door the better... Pretty bad!!!!!
K. O.
Amazing food, staff and all round great atmosphere! 10/10 would recommend
C. L.
Excellent food as usual, great atmosphere & very good service. Highly recommended.
Y. M.
Beautiful intimate setting, well maintained. Staff very friendly, accomodating and excellent at their job. Food and drink excellent and we'll priced. Would recommended it for any semi formal occasion. Facility to pre order food options with no limitations attached for larger crowd, really helpful and also ensured service was quick.
J. C.
Very impressed with this place. Tapas with an Irish twist. Great selection of wine and cocktails. All reasonably priced. They don't take bookings on a Saturday so you can just walk straight in and get a table if you're lucky. If there are no tables available, you can sit in the bar/lounge, then relax and enjoy a drink while you wait. Must visit if in the area. Will be back again
A. M.
We attended last night, we waited in the new bar off the restaurant great atmosphere only disappointment while waiting on a table you can't get daiquiri's in new bar, but you can in main restaurant they taste amazing.
What can I say food is outstanding 10/10 everytime we have attended. Excellent customer service very friendly and professional considering how busy it always is.
I'd strongly recommend a visit.
I. S.
Highly recommended..... beautiful place.... excellent service and amazing food! Hands down the best restaurant in Carlow by some margin! Definitely going back again next week... can't wait 😁👍
J. O.
Compliments to chef for the great evening and well done to all waiting staff who tried to keep the atmosphere great during the pandemic. Great meal fantastic staff!

The food is amazing and high standard, I loved every bit of it especially the desserts which are unbelievable ❤ the waiters are very friendly and nice. Inside its very cosy and warm looking. I'd recommend this place for anyone, friends night out or a nice date for two 😊
R. W.
What an AMAZING place. As an international guest these gems are not always known of....and Mimosa will definitely see me again. The staff was phenomenal so friendly. The food was of top quality and prices are very good, the decor and ambiance creates a sence of peace and luxury like you are taken into a dream where you can forget about the issues of the day and week...probably why I was there till ealry hours of the morning.
Thank you Mimosa team, i will most assuredly be back again.
P. T.
Omg, I could eat here every night. Varied menu. Fresh and good quality produce. Extremely friendly staff. Beautiful decor, for a short while you feel as if you have been transported to another country. If there was a 1000 tables here it would be full....would love to see it opened for lunch.
t. c.
Had a meal here Saturday night. Amazing food as always. Fun staff all dressed up in there St Patrick's hats etc. Helpful and friendly while professional at all times . love this place 👍👍
C. S.
My wife and I were quite disappointed with our experience at Mimosa Bar de Tapas. Call ahead to put your name on the waiting list. Not a bad system. It replaces reservations and they text you when your table is ready. There is a good drink menu as well. The negative elements of the restaurant include noise, customer service, and food quality. It is a small restaurant with many tables cramped in. At a peak dinner time, it was loud. Waiting staff seemed to be working to rotate customers. Our waiter sid he would get us some more bread, but he never returned. We had to use another waiter. A third waiter brought us the bill. We had six plates between the two of us. None was real bad, but nothing was great. The best plate was the olive tapenade, which is a starter. We most likely will not be returning
C. S.
Family meal out for Christmas up from Kilkenny

Merry Christmas and thanks .

M. O.
Ambiance was warm and friendly, service was attentive, tapas was delicious , selection of drinks was vast, wine list was very complimentary of the various food types offered..........very consistent exemplary standard upheld in this establishment year on year

This restaurant unless you know it, is hidden down a narrow one-way street across from the cathedral.
We arrived without a reservation for the early bird menu, available from 5pm till 7pm (Mon and Tue closed) and had to wait in the lounge/bar with a relaxed drink until a table became available which took about 30 minutes. There are no draught beers, only bottles or a can of Guinness. Plenty of choices for wine and spirits.
For the early bird you choose from the menu two €6 tapas dishes plus one €6 glass of wine for €15.
We had...
1. Patatas Bravas (w' Smoked Paprika Dip).
Deep fried crispy potato cubes. Didn't get the smokey taste from the dip, it was more creamy.
2. Miso Glased Chicken (Chargrilled w' Fruity Couscous).
Two pieces of chicken on a bed of couscous with crispy skin.
3. Arancini (Fried Risotto balls w' Pesto & Mozzarella).
Two deep fried crispy soft center balls with very tasty sauce.
4. Irish Dexter Beef Mini Burger (w' Aussie Style Sauce & Melted Cheese).
Flat bread were used for the buns. One of the party found it too meaty of a taste. There were also slices of beetroot which gave a nice texture to the burger.
5. Kangaroo & Mushroom Skewers (w' Read Wine & Juniper Berry Sauce).
The kangaroo was a little chewy but nice. The sauce was very tangy right into your throat.
6. Tempura Prawns (w' Chilli Soy Dip).
Five prawns in a light batter with a lovely soy dip.
7. Creamy Hummus (w' Toasted Rosemary Flatbread & Chilli Oil).
The hummus was tasteless. Even though the chilli oil was there we could not taste it.
The drinks were two glasses of white and one red wine with a carafe of table water.
The lounge/bar in a separate building was very relaxed and comfortable to have a pre-dinner drink.
The restaurant was very busy and the seating is quite tight but we didn't feel that we could hear the conversation beside us.
The staff were all vey friendly and always made sure our water was topped up and empty dishes were cleared away.
This was definitely a relaxed experience. The dishes came individually which gave us time to enjoy each one. There was no pressure to vacate the table.
The 2 toilets are unisex and were clean.
A. F.
Wonderful food and really nice friendly staff couldn't recommend highly enough.
A. L.
I absolutely love this restaurant. Bookings are not taken but use the Wait List option on their website to secure a table at your preferred time even though this cannot be guaranteed. It is a really popular restaurant at the weekend so make sure to get your name on the list early. Every dish is super but I highly recommend the beef shortrib, piri piri prawns, Clonakilty black pudding and the kangaroo. The Baked Alaska is also to die for!
D. M.
Best place to go dine in Carlow...
G. K.
Wow. Beautiful food. Dined in garden and cannot overstate enough how lovely an evening we had. Credit to owners they've created a lovely tranquillity in Centre of Carlow 👏👏
S. M.
Great service and great food. Great atmosphere. No bookings for two but if you put your name on the door and don't try get in for the peek times you should be fine. Was waiting for 0 minutes before we had a table and wine in less than 5.
T. G.
Excellent food and the atmosphere is very relaxing, they have really attentive staff at hand and will help you at all times. They have recently upgraded how they taking bookings of 6 and less people through there app on their website/Facebook. They have had problems before with taking small books which have now be rectified now.
M. T. B.
Brilliant night out, great venue, good food,.We felt like royalty when Marianne served us, her enthuasism for working there made us feel like she was the owner as she gave tips on the newest items on the menu; and we felt like we were the only guests. The background music added to the ambience of the venue and we shall return again for another great night out in the friendly atmosphere with our friends at a future date. Thanks again.
J. C.
Fabulous staff, very welcoming could not do enough to make you feel at ease. Lovely food , super service, incredible wine selection. Interior will amaze you. Top Class !

This is Berni Alan's Wife, there is actually no words that could describe the atmosphere, food and experience because anytime we have been there it is different and always exciting. Mimosa is such a success because of the owners, the staff and the food/wine. Everything else is a bonus. Hope to see you all soon, its been too long

Best food in Carlow, served in a restaurant with a lovely and lively ambiance. The menu has something for every taste, with plenty of unique and interesting dishes that make sharing fun.
T. C.
This is a superb hideaway for foodies! This wonderfully, intimate tapas bar nestled away is a treasure for all who enter and discover it's magical charm... guaranteed to ensure you'll gladly return again and again. The tantalising menu keeps evolving, every morsel is so tasty, Catriona & Oscar have put the fun back into food. Mimosa has it all - idyllic setting, chilled out atmosphere, avant garde decor, extensive wine and beer menu, fantastic food, desserts to die for - and did I mention the cocktails? The staff are so helpful and friendly, you are always greeted with a smile and treated with the best of attention - this is heaven on a plate and us Carlovians are blessed to have such a special eatery on our doorstep!
T. O.
Off the scale good, this is one of the best restaurants I've ever eaten in, it is that good

I’m not usually one for writing reviews but mimosa is the exception from start to finish absolutely beautiful the food is so good,very friendly helpful service It’s a must try if ever in Carlow.
M. O. S.
Had the goats cheese and apple crostini,the beef sliders,the pork belly, chicken wings, and the lamb lasagna.
The best were the goats cheese and apple. It was served with a balsamic vinaigrette that made your mouth water as it was simultaneously being coated with warm goats cheese.
The churrios with selection of toffee and chocolate sause was also crunchy and soft, perfect for two.
G. D.
This is the most amazing place you will ever visit. A must for anyone that enjoys nice food, lovely atmosphere, amazing staff and an all round great vibe.
M. P.
I can't say enough good things about Mimosa. The staff are amazing. The food is out of this world and as an added bonus they serve non alcoholic Prosecco.
R. W.
Carlow's number one attraction in my eyes. Always busy and still has a really relaxed atmosphere. A large variety of dishes & very well priced!
