Boncafe in Dublin

20/02/2025: I had planned to bring my wonderful wife out for a valentines meal. The ambiance in the restaurant was lovely, the piano made for great background entertainment. My starter and main was smoked salmon and ribeye this was very nice and a good size. However my wifes starter, scallop was rother small (three small scallops) and her main, sea bass was extremely small. One small fillet, about four forks of sea bass and it was gone. For we paid you would expect two fillets. We were never asked how our meal was until we were finished. If you are paying €42.50 for ribeye you would expect the side sauce to be included with the plate. The wine was good.

The triple cooked chips were the highlight they were amazing! The service was good but we waited more than 10 minutes for a waiter to come and take our dessert order. Atmosphere was really pleasant with nice music and piano.
