We’re staying in Portrush for a week and have been very disappointed by the lack of choice for dining, indeed most places seem shut during the week (surely June is holiday season!?) so we were delighted to find this little gem because of the excellent trip advisor reviews. We weren’t disappointed - our best meal in our 2 weeks on holiday. A great location (it was raining, but would be amazing on a sunny day!) and the menu had so much choice it was hard to decide. We both opted for the tapas plates, which were excellent value, and every one presented beautifully and piping hot. Beware, TAPAS means small plates and these were anything but! Lots of them were big enough for two. The charcuterie platter was well worth the supplement, the pork fillet just divine as was the chicken skewer and tempura cauliflower. My husband loved his panko squid, and was overwhelmed by the portion sizes of his other two choices. Fantastic location, great menu and food and excellent value for money. Can’t believe it wasn’t packed out on a Friday evening in June. Get booking now!

We ate in Ocho on Saturday night for my wife's birthday for the first time. We have a caravan at the north coast and it was so handy. Beautiful location looking over the Bann and when we arrived we were greeted by the excellent staff. We were unaware of the Pre Theatre menu for Tapas and it was excellent value. But we were most impressed by the fantastically knowledgeable staff, their knowledge of and passion for the food. We asked for recommendations for food and a recommendation for a wine pairing. Every single bite was absolutely fantastic, the wine was excellent and the aubergine chips and tempura cauliflower wings are a must. A refreshingly excellent find in every way and we will be regulars going forward. Go and you won't be disappointed!

Visited recently as a party of 6. 4 of us opted to share tapas while the other 2 ordered of the regular menu. Everything was fabulous what stood out food wise for me was the Aubergine with the butterscotch miso. My friend had the pork fillet and said it was a very good roast. The main thing that made this visit for me was the friendly staff we were served by Meredith and Mitzy and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for the friendly welcome and greats service throughout would visit again if I am in the area .

back after a few years and the buzz is still there (as in Portrush) Due to an oversight with taxi driver we kept the lovely staff member from getting away but we were made to feel comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed a lovely meal on our 50th wedding anniversary.

We used to love this place when it was in Portrush. Back then, the menu was a proper tapas and extensive. However, this is not a tapas restaurant by any stretch of the imagination, and playing Spanish music in the background doesn’t make it one. The food was just okay, but the triple-cooked chips were horrendous and looked like a potato cut into four because they were so big! Sadly, we won't be back.

This is one of my favourite restaurants. The new location is stunning but probably doesn't get as many patrons as it should in the off season due to being a bit out of the town. We were there again tonight, this time sampling the early bird special which is amazing value. The food is always great, tasty, fresh flavours & seasonal. The venison presse was soo good.. This place never disappoints. Stunning in the summer due to its riverside location but well worth visiting year round - definitely one of the best local eateries.

Ocho never disappoints. Such a selection of tapas to choose from and our waiter was happy to talk use through the menu. Our waitress was very attentive and of course Sean is there to oversee everything. A super atmosphere and a wonderful evening of delicious food. This new location is such a beautiful setting and the restaurant deserves to do well after having to relocate not once but twice. Looking forward to returning in the near future.

After being here when yous first opened in July (which was amazing) we decided to go again on Thursday evening and to say it was horrendous would be an understatement!!!! Food was cold, service was bleak, the two girls stood and chatted the entire time without even acknowledging us and it wasn’t even a busy night, a curly head girl came down and didn’t know a thing about what was in each dish (I’ve an peanut allergy) and just couldn’t have cared less to put it bluntly! Last time we were in were were served by Anna and another lady both seemed to have their wits about them….. Bring them back until then I won’t be back through ocho bistros doors. Good luck next time.

My wife and I went there last night. We had never been there before but had heard about this restaurant when it was in Portstewart. We had an absolutely superb meal. The waitresses Abbey and Mitzy were really excellent and knowledgeable and talked us through the menu. There are lots of small plate tapas style dishes available and they were really clever mixes between tapas style dishes with the best local ingredients. For example, one of our small plates was a goats cheese bon bon dish with sweet pickled beetroot; glazed cooked beetroot and a beetroot goats cheese purée. Really well balanced and tasty dish. Everything was fresh and really well presented. There is a lot of skill going on in the kitchen and I have to say that 4 tapas plates and two mains plus a couple of glasses of wine was really good value at £88 for the quality of the food. Will happily go again when I’m in the area.

So happy to have lunch in Ocho Tapas today. Have not been in since the Portrush days. The food was delicious as always. The dates in bacon are our favourites and we've been ordering them since Ocho was on Captain Street in Coleraine. Thankfully the lunch time/early evening tapas menu features them and other favourites. The four tapas meal is a good big lunch for two people and at £24.95 (£12.50 per person) it's a good price for the taste and quality of the food.

My mum and I had a lovely lunch in Ochos yesterday. We shared the 4 tapas lunch special and it was divine (miso aubergine was just delicious). Both of us are vegetarian, but veggie or not, you must take a trip to Ochos, for an inexpensive, freshly made, authentic Spanish lunch. The 4 tapas was more than enough for the two of us, as the portions were very generous. We shard a Créme Catalan desert, which topped off the meal perfectly. Mitzi, our waitress, was incredibly attentive and friendly and would be one of the reasons to come back again. This restaurant must be the best kept secret on the North Coast and is a must for locals and tourists alike. Thank you for a lovely lunch out.

I was with two friends and we had a fabulous time at the new location for Ocho Tapas. We started with the sharing bread platter. It was absolutely delicious..fresh bread , chopped tomato and beautiful olive oils to dip as well as garlic mayo. We all loved it. Then came the tapas we had prawns, goats cheese, feta, mushrooms and papayas bravas. The portions were excellent and we all liked every single dish. We had large glasses of the house white and red ...perfect. I can say their sauvignon blanc is particularly good. For dessert pecan pie and a crumble. Both delicious. Highly recommended. I will definitely be returning. A lovely experience.... we all shared the tapas which would be my recommendation of how to have the best experience. Service was excellent too.

First time at Ocho having wanted to try it for quite some time. Good bits first - staff were lovely and atmosphere good, even for a relatively quiet lunch time service - lovely to watch passing boats and the occasional train across the river. Prices were fair for two courses - either a starter and main or main and dessert. Sadly the food did not live up to expectations with all dishes lacking in any real stand out quality. Not bad food but with so much to offer on the north coast it needs to up the game.

Food was delicious, staff were both friendly and extremely helpful. I can't wait to eat there again. I really enjoyed their signature dish the goat cheese croquette. The salad dish was fresh and tasty. Good choice of drinks to choose from.

We visited in August. The table wasn’t clean, we asked for a high chair which was also dirty. My dad waited for quite a while to get a spoon for his dessert and when the waitress handed him one it had food on it! The...

Delicious tapas with plenty of flair. Not the big standard, plenty of imagination and fusion. Miso aubergine was standout. Good value and great service and atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Excellent meal here with my daughter to celebrate my birthday. The waitress recommended three tapas per person, and that was about right - we had some bread, too. A very good choice of dishes, and every one was excellent. I particularly enjoyed the calamari deep fried in panko breadcrumbs and the duck breast served with braised lettuce and cherries, bu it was all great. The service was friendly and efficient. Tables were allocated an hour and a half, which didn’t feel rushed. I must give a special mention to the banoffee roulade, which may just be the nicest dessert I’ve ever eaten.

I loved it here. Staff are friendly. The food was gorgeous and not your usual fare. I had the prawns and my partner had the Chorizo, both were delicious. We shared the paella combo and it was cooked to perfection. Really excellent. Would highly recommend.

We ate at Ocho last night, having read many of the reviews here we weren't sure if it was going to be excellent or zany. For us it was perfect, the upstairs dining room is lovely - nice decor, airy and with tables well spaced out. The waiter was friendly, helpful and fun. But most importantly the food was superb, every mouthful was a delight. We ordered 6 tapas dishes between 2 of us and it was plenty. I just wish it was closer to home, so we could become regulars.

We had lunch in Ocho Tapas yesterday and were delighted with our experience. The food was delicious. You get 6 tapas plates, each one was fantastic and a really enjoyable experience to eat. My absolute favourites were the pork fillet and the garlic chicken but everything was a taste delight.

Luckily got a table here for the last night of our break. All aspects were superb. Had a great table at the back and all staff work masks/visors so was able to relax and enjoy the experience Over indulged on the menu as there was too many options to choose from. Beef rib special was superb and also recommend the east the beast beer from the local brewery. Five star experience

Just back from a long awaited revisit to Ocho. Myself and my wife Carole we’re having a slightly early wedding anniversary celebration meal and what an amazing meal we had. As usual we probably ordered too much but with great choices, who can resist. Our selection spanned monkfish, aubergine, goats cheese to lamb and the dishes were sublime. It is always blatantly obvious that Ocho serves great quality, and in many cases, locally sourced food prepared and cooked with great passion and skill. Also, the staff are just so very friendly and welcoming. We just can’t wait for our next visit. Highly recommended indeed

We were there 3 days in a row last week. The place was very clean, efficient, very friendly and helpful staff. Coffee was very good, the cakes excellent as was the ice cream. The prices were completely acceptable. The last day there was a tall blonde lady working I have seldom seen anyone so effective, efficient and friendly. All the staff were brilliant. Anytime we are in portrush we will definitely be visiting Morellis Portrush
