Lovely delicious dinner! Will be back! a little pricey but it was an nice atmosphere till a table of about 10 men came in for an after work get together which was fine because we were close to done for our evening. The waitress was sweet and offered to make up a cocktail for me as I’ve only recently starting drinking. I told her I enjoy citrus and came up with drink that had vodka, orange juice, peach schnapps and cherry juice and it was divine, equal flavours throughout.
This is a lovely little tapas bar. The menu is quite extensive and diverse. The waitstaff are friendly and accommodating. My partner and I started with the Empanadas which were outstanding, I would definitely recommend this dish. Next up was the crumbed cuttlefish which was less than impressive. Thankfully the Lamb Rump was more enjoyable. The restaurant is quite small and it is worthwhile to make a prior reservation. Food came out in an efficient manner. I feel as if it was nice but not amazing.
We love amphoras, the cocktails, wine, tapas style food & desserts will tempt you to return to this small funky bar. We have been as a couple & also with a table of 15, consistent service is hard to find but not at amphoras.
Friends recommend this little tapas bar, and it didn't let us down. Loved it, the place gives you a good relaxing feel in the alfresco on the high tables, the service was great and friendly from the moment we walked in. The food was outstanding and it came out fast, great for lunches for those work catch up's. I did notice the private dining area, didn't get a chance to check it out, so will be heading back for dinner for sure - seems like a great place for the date night.
I enjoyed tapas lunch here. The wait staff were friendly and attentive. The food was different and divine - barramundi croquettes and the mushroom - delicious. Everything was right.
Great ambiance and food, we were greeted with friendly staff; the service was on point. Even though it was her first night, she was always smiling and hospitable to our every request.
Started with the wagyu Carpachio, loved the definitive truffle aroma and a slight texture contrast from the crunchy crumbs. The truffle fries and ribs may need abit more impact, but all in all they we both solid dishes and we are happy with it.
Finished off the meal by sharing the chocolate fondant. Great dark chocolate flavours and fast service! but the soil may need more of a playful texture. It did remind me of a crumbed dark choc cookies. Some crunch and muddy texture would lift the overall dish.
Great first timer experience! Loved the hospitality and ambiance they bring to the table! Wouldn't mind coming back again soon!
A little gem and the only place mostly full on a Tuesday night, which says a lot. The food is excellent and executed with style and flair. The only thing I would say is the seasoning was a little light on the savoury dishes. The chocolate fondant, however, was absolutely perfect. YUM!!
Heard from friends about Amphoras, and it didn't let us down. The staff were friendly, attention to our table was quick as was the service. The food was outstanding, we tried many dishes as you do with tapas and each dish left us wanted more. The desserts were amazing, atmosphere was great everyone really enjoyed themselves, great food great wine = great night
We came here at 6:30pm on a Tuesday night- and this place was crowded with adults coming after work. We ordered the patatas bravas, 72 hour beef ribs, and the pulled lamb. The patatas bravas were spiced well, and the aioli was fresh light and tangy. I love patatas bravas and I literally order them everywhere😂 The lamb ribs were marinated well, and the meat actually fell off the bone. The pulled lamb was so soft and melted in my mouth! It was an amazing meal overall. The dessert was chocolate fondant with nutella icecream. The chocolate fondant was rich but also salty as there was salt on top. It was an excellent meal and we will be back!!!!!
Cute bar with nice, simple tapas dishes (think tasty cheese filled arancini, truffle fries, mini sticky lamb sliders), friendly staff. Great for after work drinks and bites.
Amphoras Bar is a lovely spot to enjoy good food, good wine, and good company. It is a special occasion restaurant in my books, but you might want to splash out to celebrate on a weekend.
We chose a bunch of plates to share, including various gluten-free options...
Likes: beef carpaccio, sous vide beef cheek, chocolate fondant
Dislikes: scallops a bit small
Value for money: average
Overall: quiet little bar with quality tapas and lovely service
Sophisticated! Really lovely tapas food where the food really does shine! Beautiful decor, friendly staff that are well trained in customer service and food that you will remember.
Delicious food. We ordered the aranchini balls...twice! The croquettes of the day were chorizo and were shaped in a sphere like the aranchini balls but still tasted good. Lamb shoulder was nice and soft. The charred mushrooms were ok - not a highlight. Unfortunately the let down was the duck leg - it was tough! Dessert was redeemed with the amazing chocolate cake and my personal favourite - Affogato. The dessert let down was the churros. I don't think they were fresh because they tasted like something you would buy from a packet. So mostly delicious dishes with a couple of small let downs.
Great tapas had the lamb sliders that were awesome potato bravas, salmon and aranchinni good value and also good service will be back for sure
Great location on a sunny afternoon for a glass of wine and tapas lunch. Music inside was a bit loud, but outside was ok. We had the chorizo, jamon and patatas bravas as three small dishes and all were delicious. They've won a prize for best wine list 2015 and the selection of whites was impressive.
Food is good but needs seasoning. Servings were a good size. Desserts are amazing. Try the fondant and the cherry ice cream. Cocktails were lovely too.
A party of 12 gathered here for my sisters 40th dinner...from Spain my family had a few expectations and it did not disappoint! The food was plentiful, authentic, flavorsome and of great variety. Both the kitchen and table service was impeccable. The atmosphere was accommodating and had a warm feel, perfect for a Spanish familia ready for a night of celebration! Special 'gracias' to the chef who sourced quality produce and delivered an amazing array of dishes!! Thank you !
Have been here a few times and would recommend.
The only drawback is that it may be more expensive than most are willing to pay for tapas.
My recent lunch for three was the Seasonal Veg (roasted Aubergine w/ feta and walnuts), Bravos Potatoes, Fried Calamari and bread. The servings were very nice and flavorful. The group was satisfied when we were finished. So, tapas for 3 plus a pint of beer, $88.00

Went to Amphoras for food and drinks before a Friday night Dockers game. It was a bit loud and it could be difficult to get the attention of the waitstaff but the food more than made up for it.
The beef carpaccio was one of the best I have tasted.
The lamb shoulder was delicious.
And the Wagyu Beef was really good.
The wine list was also very good.
We drank two Pinot Blancs from Alsace and both were very nice.
Strongly recommend.
Amphoras succeeds where others fail.. Some so-called tapas bars in Perth miss the mark but Amphoras is the real deal. We ordered four dishes, for two people, from the tapas section of the menu. Probably could have done with just three. Beautiful food, very nicely cooked and well presented. Traditional tapas with an extra touch of quality. The service was friendly, quick and efficient and the wine list is excellent, though expensive. The atmosphere was great. This was our first visit but I think it could become a favourite.
Amazing food from start to finish! A must go place if you haven't already been and eaten. You'll be hooked with great service and great atmosphere and above most the FOOOOOD IS MORISH. You'll defiantly want to go back!
Great service, awesome atmosphere, delicious food
Great service, really attentive and the food arrived quickly. The food was delicious, couldn't fault anything we ordered - particularly loved the croquetas, chorizo, and the amazing dessert special which was a deconstructed black forrest cheesecake. The flavours were spot on. Will come again.
Good honest food, nice wine, good service, cute setting! Prices were fair unlike a lot of places in perth. Will be back for sure. Also plenty of GF options :)
5 stars. My partner and I stopped in on a whim after work on Friday... And whilst we were only there for half an hour, we sampled 2 tapas - Chilli Squid and Arancini.
That half an hour was enough to make me realize that we need to come back as many times as necessary to try everything on the menu.
Service was prompt and efficient, we weren't baulked at for not having a reservation and they were very accommodating.
Very nice food and attentive service. Both food and wine selection are very enjoyable! Definitely return.
Great Spot for a Drink Before the Game and After.. Dropped in for a quite beverage before the game at Subi Oval.
Great quiet location on a Saturday afternoon and excellent service. And the wine selection was as good as it gets. In fact, my wife and I enjoyed this place so much, we went back after the game to enjoy some tapas as well.
The food was excellent, although I thought a little on the expensive side.
The only disappointment was their dessert; pavlova! Good but not great. You needed an axe to cut through it. If that's how they make it according to their Chef, give it a miss.
Three tapas, a dessert, two glasses of wine and a soft drink: $98.30. Expensive.
Service was exceptional. Glasses and cutlery, top notch. The range of tapas and nibbles was good. The wine selection excellent.
Will be back
I have two words for Amphoras Bar... FIVE STAR!! Wow, this place is absolutely amazing. It's the best food I've since I visited Melbourne. Really fantastic tapas food with out of this world flavours, also great service and overall atmosphere. My fav's were the chicken liver parfait, lamb, haloumi, and the cheese cake with popping candy. I definitely recommend this restuarant for the food lovers out there. Will be back soon :)
Great food great service great atmosphere. Caught up with some friends, great place to chill out have a drink share food,conversations,and stories.
We ordered most things on the menu and all was very good. Good size servings for tapas. Good wine list and by the glass options.
Will definitely return.
Went there for dinner last night with a couple girlfriends, could not fault it! We had the calamari (which was amazing), the chorizo, the chips, chicken wings and the aranchini balls between 3 people and it was more than enough! The aranchini was incredible!! Probably the best I've ever had! The service was polite and friendly and the atmosphere was great! Will definitely be coming back! Great place for a first date or a friendly catchup, good work!! :)
Not many seats. A pleasant after work place for drinks and nibbles. the service is friendly. we had crispy chicken wings, pork belly, croquettes, chicken liver parfait, calamari and the dessert tapas plate. the pork belly was soft and juicy, the crackling was crunchy. the parfait was smooth. the dessert plate was cute and not too sweet. overall, the meal is not pricey, and food is solid and tasty. a good place for food to share. will come again.
Great food. Spiced lamb croquets - delicious! As was the haloumi and the lamb with artichoke flakes. As for the olives, very expensive at $9 for about 9 olives! All in all a lovely evening.
Went on a monday arvo around 4.30. It was quiet due to tge time of day but stil an AWESOME atmosphere! The place is GORGEOUS! The staff are so friendly and just want to be helpful. One of the girls even organised for the food to be ready by the time my friend arrived and stopped for a little friendly banter. I'm sure its cause she was bored but even so I found it nice. You can see they work well together and all the staff are very happy and smiley. A great experience!
Brilliant !!. It was brilliant!! The service, the staff, the food, the wine, the atmosphere! Everything.
Wish I went again for lunch today (as I work in Subiaco) instead of Hippo Creek – DON’T GO THERE!!!
Fantastic!. Amphoras is one of my favourite places in Perth! The vibe is always good with yummy cocktails and huge wine list. I love the food, delicious tapas and generous portions. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly.
My new fav place :-)
Great friendly service gorgeous meal great atmosphere orgasmic dessert & awesome cocktail had fantastic night will be back
Thumbs up!. Went to Amphoras Bar last night for the first time. I was really impressed! The staff were so friendly (makes such a difference) the food was delicious and the overall vibe of the place was great, with cool tunes playing in the "background" but not too loud that you couldn't hear the person next to you. Big thumbs up!
6 of us tonight we were late but the service was excellent food was really good, especially the capretto. Highly recommend. It's nice to leave a restaurant happy.
Lunch. Food was great. Texture, taste and quality spot on. A bit noisy at the rear of the restaurant but overall a great spot. Will visit again!!
Enjoyable evening. Service was attentive
Atmosphere was great
Food was fantastic
Highly recommended
Just had dinner at Amphoras with 3 other people and it was great. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The dessert was a let down (the churros were undercooked), but the savoury tapas were all excellent, which more than made up for it. The atmosphere was great as well, which meant we were comfortable sitting there, chatting, until closing time. I'd recommend this place.
Quality Place. My Uncle introduced me to Amphoras at the start of the year and I have never turned back. This place is fine dining tapas with only 1 dissapointment ... the size of the toilet. Apart from that the food is quality and the drinks, especially the beer on tap is as good as it gets. If you intend to go for lunch and not go back to the office on a Friday afternoon, this is the place. You drink, order some food, have another drink and order more food and so on. If you go, catch a cab into work because you wont be driving home. Until next time ... 8/10
Great food, shame about the service!. Great tapas menu – would recommend the arancini and the calamari. Unfortunately the service was a bit of a let down - drinks that never arrived, wait staff somewhat abrupt and in a rush. Might have just been an off night?! Would like to return to try the desserts!
We had amazing service by the manager. Plus amazing food and wine recommendations. I love this place for everything. Service, food, wine, music, ambience... Probably one of my favorite sophisticated places without the exorbitant price tag venues.
Their private dining room sounds amazing!
Just perfect for a lunch date, or when you wanna stuff yourself
Great night out. We booked the function room for my birthday dinner. We took the group tapas menu for our party of 14. The food was excellent and the service 1st class. The function room with its walls of wine was warm, elegant and sophisticated. Everyone had a great night and I couldn't be happier. I've eaten in the restaurant proper many times and always been impressed but the function room was just great for a party. Definitely my favourite restaurant!
Best Tapas!. Amazing food, fantastic atmosphere, attentive staff. Never disappointed!! Great way to spend an evening with friends over food!! Please bring back the chocolate pudding dessert to the menu though!!
Love it. Atmosphere is fabulous. Food scrumptious
Good vibe.. Well decked out. Food was fine, nice wine and efficient service. All round pretty enjoyable.
Loved it. Went there the other day and boy what can I say, the service was great and the wine list is impressive. we had 6 dishes and managed to fit in dessert. service was good, could have been a little quicker towards the end of our night, but nothing to complain about really as they were quite friendly. we will be back!
Great spot. Stumbled on this place. Great service, nice food, the duck was beautiful! Give it a go!
Enjoyable. We have been here twice, both times with friends. The staff were friendly and helpful with menu suggestions. They were happy to go at a slow pace so we could graze throughout the night.
Sangria was nice, although variable.
Recommend: haloumi, arancini, olives, meatballs.
Servings look small but it all adds up to a reasonaly priced and filling meal if you have small groups of people.
The service was great, lovely staff. The mushroom sautee was amazing. Meatballs were a bit too meaty and sauce was a bit bland. Overall a good dining experience
Amazing Amphoras... Great little place!
We rocked up after 9pm & they were still happy to serve us dinner even though the kitchen closed at 9pm! We had the calamari, pakprika potats, waygu meatballs & the duck which was all to die for. Can now understand why this place has such good reviews.
Fabulous. I was at lunch at amphoras bar today. The service by Jodie was exceptional and the food was amazing with a great wine list.
Delicious. Great food here, the arancini was the best I have ever had and the baby squid was amazing. The only downside was that we waited a while for our drinks and bread.
Spot On. This place was great when we went - sounds like it's had a bad run on the comments posted. Everything was immaculately clean, service was great to the point where the waiter wrote down the wine we had for us on a card and most importantly the food was Awesome. Some of the comments below sound like they are just whinging - if you're looking for a quiet place then this is not it, its a bar after all.
Friday Lunch. The tapas was for the most part great. The exception is the meatballs which were average. The service was great. The food is pretty pricey, but that seems to be the norm in Perth.
Fabulous. Great Food, Great Service, Great Surroundings!
Love, Love, Loved it.
Also very accomodating to my 9 year old son!
Very pleasant Sat pm tapas meal. Relaxed casual atmosphere. Tapas very good value & wine list fine. We enjoyed it for what it offered.
Great tapas joint for people who like to graze. Caught up with a few friends on a Friday night when it was quite busy, however it wasn't too loud and the service was also good. The tapas were great and are most suited for those who want a small bite with their drinks, just don't come here on an empty stomach expecting a hearty feed!

Paella and sangria night rocked my socks -awesome food, great beers and an even better wine list
Nice food, yummy meatballs but a little overpriced and a great wine list but also overpriced and because of this we wont be back, shame coz it was nice just small serves for the price paid.
Great place to catch up. I recall the tapas were very tasty and the music was at an audible level that allowed you to still converse with ease. My only complaint would be that I'm such a big eater that after $60 worth of tapas I had a kebab straight after!
Oh yum. Visited last night for tapas and a wine or two with friends. Wow amazing delicious food. We had the sardines, scallops, arrancini, chorizo, asparagas, mushrooms and all were delicious. Loved it.
Stylish little tapas bar. A range of sensational tapas - try the asparagus, and also the glazed chorizo - accompanied by a great winelist.
Very friendly staff. Let’s get that right. My man was helpful and let me taste the beers.
I ordered the ribs. Honestly, not as fall-from-the-bone as I wanted (hence 4 stars), but the flavor was there. Too many places load up their pork ribs with sugar - not here! Nice and smoky. Strong recommend, I just wish wish wish they fell off that bone.
The coleslaw was good. Rather tangy. The corn - look I like corn but I wasn’t feeling it today. But that’s on me, the corn itself was fine.
Again, great staff. And they played a few bangers, not too loudly, so I could enjoy my life and food.
Incredibly welcoming and friendly staff, very kindly let me sample the Balter XPA before purchasing (very nice it was, too!). The Beef lil' burger was exquisite; the burger was juicy and flavourful, the mozzarella was stringy and devine, the sauce was tangy and the jalapeno left a nice tingle in the mouth! Freshly made, I know where I'll be having dinner tomorrow night!
Astoundingly amazing management and staff! Attentive and efficient. Also the burgers are scrumptious!
Amazing place. Relaxed chill atmosphere. Tasty food. Good prices. Attentive service and the drink list is amazing !
Got a cocktail made just for me and it was delicious
Will be taking my work mates and make it our new after work spot
Dropped in for a lunch and a couple of quiet beers on a Friday. The staff are all very friendly and the service could not be faulted. The prices are reasonable and it was very busy which is a nice change in West Perth and the food was great.
Will return for sure. Excellent atmosphere.

Went late on a Saturday afternoon when West Perth isn't exactly jumping. Staff were friendly and engaging. Coffee was good. I will go back....perhaps mid week next time.
Good selection of beers on tap and the burgers are very good. Heaps of tvs for watching sport etc. Prompt, friendly service. Will definitely be back.
By far the best place!!! Great food, the beef cheek... nothing less than perfection. The wait staff friendly with great information about local sights to see. Sam and Jimmy are the best!!!! The cooks are OUTSTANDING, Marsalis (sp) Great job. Highly recommended
