Great food, good ambiance. Can't wait to go back and try other items on the menu. Delightful!

We enjoyed our meal, although something about the vibe was a bit strange. I'm a massive Swiftie, but Taylor Swift playing at a Tapas bar was odd. There was also a strange conversation happening at the bar area, and I noticed another Yelper saying they had a similar experience. It was early in the evening so we were a bit caught off guard by the intoxication level. We enjoyed the octopus, lamb, flaming cheese, and by far the favorite was the bacon wrapped dates. Food was good and we may go back for the taco specials soon. read more

The cheapskate in me loves this place for the Thursday $6 taco special. You can't go wrong at that price point and there are many to choose from. Taco 47 and el Ranchero are my two go-to favorites for chicken and beef, respectively. The little cup of hot sauce really makes the flavors take off. Love it! My favorite tapas vary, but typically the queso frito, patatas bravas, or empanadas. I recently tried Alcachofa Frita (Crispy fried artichoke, chive horseradish sauce)and it looked and tasted great. I plan to try more and I know others I've dined with enjoy a variety of tapas. I like this place a lot, but not crazy about the sangria and the occasional wait times for food and service. Great decor, small and intimate space appropriate for a date or casual dining. Truly a 4.5 but rounding up because I'm generous. read more

Intimate. Eclectic. Tasty. All the traits of a fantastic eve of noms! Though I feel drinks are on the pricy side, they are crafted very well. As an added bonus, they can be infused with CBD at your request (for more $) You really can't go wrong with any of the tapas. And if you are in the mood for something hearty, they have a specialty large meat entree. Thursday's is a great day to visit, with cheap tacos and sangria. Free valet parking is provided. Definitely a great date spot! read more

Suba - Flaming cheese with chorizo. Really fresh nacho chips! - Tapas Bars Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

A comfortable second floor location for tapas and very nice cocktails. Samantha is a delightful bartender and server tending to your libation and small plate needs. Everyone else sitting near me ordered tacos. They looked nice and tasty. I regret that I did not order tacos. I did find my $5 fried artichoke small plate very beautifully plated--and delicious. I would not order the duck torta again. Torta too crunchy. Not enough duck. In contrast, the tacos were all two to a plate and looked good. I work and can rarely get to a 5-7 happy hour deal. That is too bad for me--for the happy hour tacos are half price. Want to return here with friends. read more

Absolutely amazing! We visited Suba on a Friday evening as they opened and were promptly seated. The interior was decorated in a theme/colors which helped set the Spanish Tapas environment. Service was very attentive and friendly. The house cocktail menu is quite unique and targets a variety of tastes. On this visit, we sampled the Ask Mr. Owl cocktail and the house sangria, both were very good. A wide variety of Spanish wines (red and white) are also available on the menu. The tapas menu is quite large and solid selections along with some twists on traditional favorites. Initially we ordered the fish taco (based on Yelp suggestions), artichoke heart, and the empanadas. The empanadas were very flavorful with a unique (beef and almond picadillo) filling and cooked perfectly. The fish tacos were delicious!! Which prompted us to order the Taco 47 (chicken tacos). These chicken tacos were The Best tacos I've had in the HBG area! The meat was cooked (in sofrito) and seasoned to perfection and the tortilla was delicious-not too thick and not too thin. Delicious! Overall, our experience left us looking forward to the next time we could visit! read more

We heard good things about Suba but never seemed to find the time to get there. We finally had some time and we certainly weren't disappointed. The food and drinks were fantastic. I'm sure we'll be back. read more

This is the upstairs bar/restaurant above Mangia Qui. It is a tapas style bar so small plates are meant to be ordered and shared amongst the table. They have a great bar list with craft cocktails, in house sangria, beers and wine. The Caipirinhas are legit! I really like the Charcuteria! It is a varying tasting of meat and cheeses. The Atun is also really great, seared Tuna done right! The empanadas were ok, the beef filling was lacking some seasoning, maybe the batch was a little off I would order them again just to try. The Gambas al Ajillo are a definite must try. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. I love Mangia Qui so we will definitely be back to give Suba another try! read more

3.5/5 upped to 4 based on prior experiences. Attended the Paella on the Patio event Friday evening. Paella was cooked outside and served with specialty drinks and music out on the sidewalk. The event was enjoyable (and very popular); however, the paella was served cold (typically should be served nicely warm). It was easy to see the paella being plated from the large pan and watch it sit on a table for upwards of 5 minutes before it was served. Unsure if the pan had a heat source still or not, but the rice/seafood (minus the lobster tail) were cold to the touch - which was a bummer because the rest of the event was nicely done. read more

Came here for their happy hour per a recommendation by someone at rubicon. Sadly when i came suba was closed for an event so I ate at mangia qui instead for the suba tacos. Make note they're half off tacos until 7. Tacos were more spaniard flavors than Hispanic by the way. We got the all 4 tacos- taco 47 (chicken), suba tacos (grilled fish), el ranchero, and el pastor. Taco 47 definitely was the best out of the three. The combination for flavors and freshness was delicious. The chicken was well marinaded and moist. The suba tacos which they're known for was good as well. My cousin and I had a hard time comparing these tacos to any tacos we've had before because well...they're not Mexican tacos...the mango salsa was delicious and the fish is grilled perfectly. The el ranchero and el pastor were okay. We also got another tapas - the pollo frito and it was deliciously crispy and melted in your mouth. Tapas are well priced with plenty of options read more

Suba is a small Tapas restaurant above another restaurant owned by the same people. There is a full bar and wine list, and the menu is a collection of Spanish tapas and tacos. The interesting thing is that you can also order from the Italian restaurant downstairs, which is a nice little bonus. The tapas are well done, and I enjoyed the bacon wrapped dates, garlic shrimp, and octopus. I also ordered the squid ink pasta from the Italian restaurant. These are great dishes to share! The service was good, if not a bit surly, which was odd. I do recommend this as a nice date restaurant, as the ambiance is very intimate and the space is pretty small. read more

Amazing calamari. Great spicy garlic flavor. Cleaned our plates. Lovely tacos as well. Hip vibe in the bar. Love the lighting and exposed brick. Creative drinks and great wine list. Surprisingly reasonable prices. We will be back read more

Suba - Hip vibe in the bar. Love the lighting and exposed brick. - Tapas Bars Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Small plates are perfect for sharing! Come here and get a taco and then several small plates to share with your friends, family, or significant other. I have had over ten plates here (remember they are small) and each one was delicious. I would recommend the flaming cheese! It is yummy and who doesn't like seeing their food on fire! I would recommend that you get 4-5 plates for every two people that are eating. This makes the place cost over $20 per person but is still reasonably priced if you want it to be. The restaurant is also very small and very eloquent. read more

Best Fish Tacos around! Suba tacos ROCK!! Bacon wrapped dates are another favorite. Everything is fresh and we loved everything we have tried here. Small plates so try and share everything. Maybe keep the tacos for yourself though ;) read more

HIDDEN GEM! One of my favorite restaurants in Harrisburg. Their Suba and El Ranchero tacos are delicious. (Half off on Thursdays 5-9 pm) they aren't your typical authentic taco but they are well-flavored and also very filling. I also enjoy the Cordero (which is goat cheese stuffed lamb chops) and Canoa (sweet plain stuffed with braised beef and cheese). I typically can pass on the drinks here but definitely check out their cocktails if you're into that. They have a decent wine selection. Only issue with them is they are not consistent with the days they are open because they regularly have private events and close down the restaurant (totally understandable but can you guys just please post a quick update on social media?). Sometimes they do offer the same food at the Mangia Qui bar, but you should double check. Since they do not post on social media, just give them a quick call and double check before going. read more

Had a rather disappointing dinner here tonight. Ambience is nice enough - though it's a very cramped and so very loud space. The food was fine, tasty but a bit dull. The Atun (tuna) had a very nice kick to it. A lot of fried food as well - not greasy but the menu seemed a bit dependant on that particular technique Service was painfully slow. Seemed attentive to start, but after ordering our first round of drinks and food we were essentially ignored (in a room of maybe an even dozen tables) for the next forty-five minutes. Had to get our own menu for the second round of tapas. Had to flag down the waitress to even put in another order. The first of three tapas arrived and we asked to put dessert in as we were getting a bit pressed for time (at that point we'd been dining for two hours and gotten 2 rounds of drinks and one round of tapas plus 1/3 of our second order). The waitress took our order and the desserts arrived before the rest of the tapas. The waitress cocked a surprising amount of attitude when we mentioned this. Even more so, one of our party said he could not hear what she said, due to the noise in the space. Her response was, "well, the rest of your table heard me", before walking off. She appeared to be the only waitstaff for the upstairs (Suba) which may be part of why things were slow, but the attitude was uncalled for and completely soured the experience. read more

This is not the Suba I remember. Took my fiancé there for the first time last week. 4 people at the bar talking among themselves. 2 other people finishing up their meals and left. One of their employees finished her shift and proceeded to sit with the 4 people at the bar and them for a drink. Once she joined them, it became loud and obnoxiou. Every other word out of her mouth was F this and that. At one point we had to get up and ask for another drink because no one had come to check on us. We ordered 3 tapas and 2 different kinds of tacos. The food was mediocre at best. The carnitas tacos were so greasy it was like eating taco soup. We spent $150 that I wish I could have back. If I wanted to have a dive bar experience we would have gone to a dive bar and saved a lot of money. So disappointed and will NEVER go back. What was the point of reopening? Sorry Qui Qui. I was embarrassed to bring someone there for the first, and last time. Best of luck. read more

We love this place! Great atmosphere and the service is incredible. Very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Now, let's start with the drinks. I had a Mojito that was the freshest and tastiest drink I've had in a long time. My wife had the Rockefeller, which is a martini with olive oil infused vodka. She is still talking about it two weeks later. I am also and only had a sip. It was silky smooth. We tried many different tappas and loved them all. We especially loved the fish tacos. You can't go wrong when they are on the happy hour special. The hearts of palm are great as well. Get the table by the window and you'll enjoy a beautiful view of the Capitol. read more

Obtaining a table in advance is bit awkward especially for parties for less than 6. No phone number to call. After ordering all food was served at once versus asking for some food to be served as appetizers serving versus entree. Hot food arrived faster than cold food. Definitely need to clarify regarding what items are gluten free or not. Or remove gluten free label from menu since there were 3 items that were clearly gluten free. Overall food portions could be improved upon, pricing is reasonable and service was prompt for servers not food. For the amount of diners kitchen should have been not overwhelmed read more

Suba is a top 5 restaurant in Harrisburg, and top 5 Tapas restaurant I've ever been to in any City. The food is great, the cocktails are great, and the ambiance and musicians they bring in are great. Like any Tapas place, its fun to order several Tapas items and share. The calamari here is simply unique. There are flaming cheese items, imported cheese, olives, etc. Its Mangia Qui quailty food in Tapas packages (should be as they are owned by the same people). The cocktails are just amazing. No other bar within 100 miles can compete with the unique craft cocktail creations that change seasonally. The real staple cocktail here though, is the Firefly. If you like spicy food/drinks, this one is just a homerun. There have been numerous nights where we just couldn't keep ordering "another" and had to Uber home. A great problem. The staff is so friendly, and the bartenders have become friends. This place is just one of the best restaurants weve even been to and for picky people that prefer to change and try a new place, we end up here more than any other place. read more

I finally found my favorite restaurant in Harrisburg. I was blown away by the meal I had here. I'll probably never go on a night other than Thursday for happy hour, but you better believe those are my happiest hours of the week. After ordering the fish tacos, chicharrones, and truffle oil quesadilla we just needed more and opted for an order of the el ranchero tacos. The fish tacos are what dreams are made of, and the el ranchero tacos are eighth there behind them. I still am dreaming about the tangy sauce on the fish tacos and the perfectly spiced, not too overpowering, horseradish sauce on the el ranchero. The tortillas are perfect homemade shells that provide a filling vehicle for all of the goodness inside of them. The chicharrones were the only item I wouldn't order again. The description sounded like they would be bursting with flavor but the coating and peanut sauce were both a little bland. The quesadilla was another show stealer, and I would definitely order again, though it is a bit small for its price tag. The delicious food, the great service, and the beautiful atmosphere are what I've been searching for in a go-to hbg spot. read more

It's been a couple days and I'm still thinking about my amazing experience at this restaurant. My friend and I had been to Rubicon about a year ago for oyster happy hour and I wanted to treat him again, but wasn't sure if it was still a special. I also wasn't sure how the restaurant was operating during Covid. I called on a Thursday and spoke to a lovely man named Mitchell who answered all my questions and set up a reservation for me on Saturday evening. Oyster happy hour is still very much alive and is available across Rubicon, Mangia Qui, and Suba. Mitchell read me off a few things of each of their menus and gave me the choice of where we'd like to dine. Suba had tacos and tapas so of course that is where I wanted to be. When we arrived the entire portion of the street in front of the restaurants was blocked off to traffic and tables were set up for outdoor dining. We were sat at a table on the street that had an incredible view of the Capitol. Even more incredible was the food and drinks. My friend enjoyed the gigantic looking oysters (not my cup of tea) and I had some delicious calamari. We also shared the el pastor and fried tilapia tacos. I can't stop thinking about them. They were amazing. The vegan nachos were also a hit although I with there was more topping. The drinks were strong and incredibly flavorful. Please do yourself a favor and visit soon before it's too cold to dine outside !! read more

The attention to detail in the way the food is prepared, the seasonality of the menu, the stellar view of the Capitol, the thoughtfulness of the wait staff and the wonderful restaurateurs make the trio of restaurants under this group's tutelage a sheer delight to visit, each and every time. read more

Yes it is a bit pricey for the amount of food that you're getting, but you can also order from the restaurant on the first floor and every time we go the food is amazing and the service is spectacular. Love love love this place!! read more

Why doesn't this place have more reviews? It's quite possibly my favorite restaurant in all of Harrisburg, and where I usually ask to go anytime it's a special occasion like my birthday or a holiday. It's also where my family frequently brings out-of-town guests to showcase the best of restaurant options in Harrisburg. Let's start with cocktails. I think Suba/Mangia Qui makes the best craft cocktails in Harrisburg. They're not cheap but they're delicious. The mojito is absolutely perfect, loaded with tons of fresh mint. There are some classic cocktails that are always on the menu, as well as some changing seasonal options, and I've never been disappointed. Nor have I been disappointed with anything I've ever eaten here. Some of my favorites: ranchero tacos (super tender beef and giant fried onion rings), duck tostadas topped with creamy cheese, flaming cheese (with 151 and chorizo), and patatas bravas (spicy seasoned potatoes). All menu options are tapas so they're perfect for sharing and sampling. Food - even cocktails - can take a while to get to the table but I'm confident everything is being made fresh and it's all well worth the wait. Staff are always super friendly and helpful. Plus, if for any reason Suba is full or closed for an event, you can order all the same tapas and cocktails downstairs at Mangia Qui so you'll never be disappointed that you miss out on a favorite dish. read more

Tapas style. Great for sharing. Get a few different options and share. I love the tacos and empanadas. They do have specials on food and drinks during certain times. Nice atmosphere. They have live music as well. Great service. My friend and I love to come here to catch up, relax, and share food. read more

Remind me of being in Spain... Love this place and fish Tacos... Yummmy

I really wanted to love this place- I did. We picked it for our annual sisters dinner because this place used to be fantastic. We were so underwhelmed by the food, but more so the service. This I why: 1) two of the dishes were misrepresented from what listed on the menu 2) the Spanish meat dish (which was listed to come with a baguette and sun dried tomato marmalade) came with neither. It was served with toll house pita crackers. 3) the flaming cheese dish -- was poorly executed. The 151 didn't burn off and just sat there while the cheese congealed. We didn't even touch it. 4) Our waters were only refilled once. 5) we asked if the items that served three could come out in 4 and be charged as necessary so that it was shareable for our table-- quickly denied. 6) the "pan fried" lamp pops were deep fried. Like DEEP fried. 7) the octopus was cooked well, but saturated in paprika. It was all you could taste. The calamari, quesadilla, dates, and atun were good however. After all of that -- the only thing we mentioned to the server was that we'd like the meal that was described incorrectly on the menu to be removed. The server rolled her eyes, and seemed exasperated as if we had done something wrong. We never received a response to our question but when the bill came -- their solution? The took off three dollars, which is borderline offensive. Bad owner response and rude customer service pretty much ruined our night there. We requested they update their menu to accurately reflect what you get.. The server said she'd ask the FOH manager (lame). Needless to say, we won't be returning. read more

Great food. Fun place. Subas (fish) tacos and mojitos are simply delicious! We love this place. It is our go to, laid back "date".

A hidden gem in downtown Harrisburg. The food is great, especially if you are a fan of tapas style dining and like to try a little bit of everything and order more of what you like. Our server was friendly and attentive and the ambience is cozy. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in the area. read more

We have been to Suba on many occasions, for both brunch and dinner, and it never disappoints. Over the weekend we celebrated my birthday there with dinner and drinks for a party of 15. It went perfectly. Everyone loved their meals, and their tapas and cocktails are second to none. By far some of the most unique and well made drinks in the city. I highly recommend the Suba taco and the hummus de frijoles. read more
