A Fianco in Dublin

If you can’t get into Grano, go to A Fianco. A welcoming wine bar perfect for two people. Everything is good - I loved the stuffed pastry for desert recently. They used to have a lovely sandwich (not quite the word) style dish with buratta and ham - bring that back please.

We couldn’t get a reservation for Grano while visiting but we’re glad we got an early seating at the wine bar! A good wine selection in a small/intimate setting. My husband and father in law loved the food! There aren’t really any options for a vegetarian with a dairy allergy (but I knew that beforehand I checked the menu), so just had a light snack and planned to eat afterwards. Small staff super friendly.

Amazing place and delicious food.

Utterly delicious authentic Italian small plates, done with such finesse. Great spritzes too! Always order the tiramisu.

Delicious wine and plenty of vegan options which I always appreciate. Staff so kind and friendly

Outstanding dishes pairing with unique wines in a cosy atmosphere.

A Fianco is my favorite wine bar in Dublin. The food, wine list, service and atmosphere are all exceptionally good. Highly recommend!

A Fianco offers an exceptional experience. The service is impeccable, with attentive and knowledgeable staff. The wine selection is excellent, with a variety that satisfies even the most discerning palates. The food is equally extraordinary, perfectly paired with the wines. An ideal place for a refined evening. Thanks to Michael for the great service.

Love everything about A Fianco, the food is so tasty, the vermouth and negronis are delicious. The service is so good too. Can’t wait to go back.

The ambience is warm and inviting, and the dishes are delightful. However, the staff’s persistent check-ins created a sense of urgency, making us feel hurried rather than welcomed. Given that the restaurant is clearly aware that people visit for a special evening, I found their overly hasty approach disappointingly out of place. Moreover, their wine list is organised by the geography of Italy rather than by grape variety, which is far from helpful or practical.
