Bar Lourinha - Melbourne

Pretty good cozy spot for a nice catch up with friends. We ordered a few good dishes. My only dislike was the chicken, it was a bit too bland. But overall fantastic food and cocktails!

Booked dinner after attending Australian Open. We were seated upstairs a little more spacious and not as noisy.Fantastic tapas from Morton Baybugs croquettes to Cantabrico Anchovies to Padron peppers to stracciatella with tomatoes, chickpeas with spinachEvery plate of food was flavoursome. The service was spot on. Thankyou to the Englishmen waiter.

Tapas were all delicious, tap beer was good, service friendly, nice cozy feel

Great bites, and larger plates. Lighting not conducive to photography, the lamb heart skewer was flavoursome, the chickpeas a study in simplicity, the flavours robust.

Loved the jamon croquettes, potato cigars and the mushroom empanadilla. We could have stopped there, but we were tempted by the roast cauliflower, as well as the organic beetroot with green wheat. The beetroot dish was very moreish, and completely not what I was expecting. The accompanying bread was the perfect touch. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and our waitresses were super friendly. The only suggestion is perhaps leave a bit more room between the tables we had to move our dishes as our neighbours kept getting up, to avoid them getting some of our dinner on their backsides!!!!!!!
