The prawn toast was to be nice with extra prawns
I am lactose intolerance, so they catered for all my needs, which made me feel great.
Quite when we were there but this helped so early Sunday evening dinning.
Lamb shank fell off the bone, which was lovely.
Staff who served us he was a gent. Keep him knows what they are doing.
Yes, go back again

A nice place in beautiful Dalkey, the food was good but could be more special. I liked the vegan tofu steak but the pork was not a special dish.

Had a lovely meal in 1909 last night with my husband. We were celebrating my birthday and everyone was so friendly. I felt totally spoilt. Food was excellent. We shared a starter and I had the fillet steak for my main course. My husband had the salmon. We shared a lovely cheesecake for desert. Everything was beautifully cooked and presented. Thanks 1909 for a great night!

One of the best meals I've ever had!
Ordered salmon and mash.
We had a lovely waiter too.

Somewhat disappointing. A fillet steak is never a cheap option on a menu, but expect perfection and it was kind bland. I ordered a mushroom sauce on the side but was given brandy peppercorn. While it was good, it wasn't what I wanted. No one checked on us while we ate for me to even notify staff, and no one even made eye contact for me to flag them down. I had to just stick with it anyway since the steak would have gotten cold. I think the place is nice, but price point vs what you get might leave you feeling like it's not worth it.

Delicious lamb shank, salmon, fish and chips. Great attention to food allergies and a comfortable pub atmosphere.

I ordered a 8oz steak and it was 5oz at best (I also asked for it to be medium-rare and it was very well done which is disappointing for €37.50), service was fine (our waiter was friendly but didn’t speak English very well so couldn’t answer any questions about the menu), atmosphere was nice (pianist downstairs every evening).

I was waiting for the airbus after a long weekend with a friend who went to school in Dalkey but lives in the States now. He chose 1909 for a lunch and oh my what a find. It was the run up to Christmas and the restaurant was full of warmth and laughter - I had the salmon which was succulent and flavourful . The ladies on the next table were obviously regulars and were treated like family by the lovely host
I also had desert and coffee and very nearly missed my coach
Thoroughly fitting way to end a magical weekend
Would return in a heartbeat

We have been to this restaurant many times but this was not a great experience. 40 minutes to order food...We were a party of 5 so there was a conversation about starters or just mains at which point the waiter said 'I need to go and take another order if you dont decide'....so arrogant and rude. The two steaks were mixed up. Service was very slow....had to ask a junior waiter to order another bottle of wine...
The bill was also very large. Probably will not go back again.
