Cavistons in Dublin

I ate at this restaurant with a friend yesterday evening. The food was absolutely delicious, but such a pity about the rudeness of the waitress/manager on the upper floor.

Nothing but praise for this restaurant. I had the best meal I have ever had in Ireland, having lived here 20yrs now. We loved the John Dory sharing plate in seafood bisque! Also, the service is delightful. Every waiter was equally charming, a rare surprise these days. This is now officially my favourite restaurant in Ireland!

Great place with excellent seafood. The interior décor is elegant and beautifully designed, and the service is high-end while remaining warm and genuinely welcoming.

Great service, delicious fresh oysters and monkfish.

Brilliant place! Go there if you get a chance.

Great restaurant and excellent staff...we had great meal

Fantastic ingredients and very well put together dishes. Staff were attentive and elegantly furnished. Highly recommend the black sole and the monkfish dishes. Thanks.

Met friends upstairs here on a Friday night and had a great time. The service was really great and every dish was a hit. Tasteful decor, we'll be back!

First time having dinner here, and it didnt disappoint. We booked a table for 4 and tried a variety of starters and mains. For starters the Prawns and Crabmeat are our top 2 picks while the Black Sole on the bone and Steak were the winners for the main course. The Staff were brilliant as usual and really made it an enjoyable night.

I recently revisited this restaurant after about two years, and I’m pleasantly surprised by how much things have improved under the new management. During my last visit, I remember feeling let down by the service and the uneven quality of the food. This time, however, everything was completely different. The staff were genuinely welcoming and attentive without being intrusive, and the food was outstanding — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can tell there’s much more care put into every detail now, from the menu choices to the cleanliness of the dining area. Even the atmosphere feels brighter and more inviting. It’s wonderful to see a place turn itself around so completely. I’ll definitely be coming back soon and recommending it to friends.
