Damascus Gate in Dublin

Everything is nice, but place is small, so can get crowded at pwak times. We visited late in the afternoon, so place empty as it was neither lunch nor dinner time, otherwise there can be a wait and limited time to eat

Amazing food and welcoming staff

We had the Beirut mezza to share and it was delicious. The mixed grill was also to die for and the service was excellent. Already planning our next visit

I enjoyed a delicious meal here, just 2 mins from my hotel. I wanted something tasty and healthy and this ticked both boxes! The waiting staff were extremely attentive and helpful - thank you! I enjoyed every mouthful of my meal - tabbouleh to start, then a grilled chicken skewer with salad, rice and hummus. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place :)

The food was delicious! Service was very kind and very conveniently located.

Such a brilliant night. Emilio looked after us so well and gave brilliant food recommendations. I can't wait to come back. Beat birthday ever.

Ordered the mixed grill and Halloumi appetizer. Both the food and service were excellent.

Filling, healthy, and delicious! Jet lag brought a need for healthy food, but returning to vibrant Dublin had us hungry for delicious flavors as well. Damascus Gate kept popping up in conversations, and we love Middle Eastern/Mediterranean foods like and gave it a try! The staff greeted us and suggested we share a mezzo plate, so we ordered the Jerusalem appetizer. Spices—perhaps including saffron and paprika—abounded, and pomegranate seeds added crunch to the cheese. I particularly liked the hummus and stuffed grape leaves, some of the best I’ve ever had. I wanted a light entree and ordered the lentil soup; but my partner went big with the mixed grill. Our entrees met the high standard begun with our first course, including complex and perfectly prepared rice. We so enjoyed our meals that we didn’t have room for the fabulous desserts but hope to return soon and correct this situation. Bon appetit!

Delicious food and great recommendations from the waiter. We shared a meze plate and one main as we were not sure hungry. Highly recommend

Came to this Syrian/Lebanese restaurant twice during my week’s stay in Dublin. Really good food had the lamb kibbeh followed by lamb skewers. Friendly owner, who gave good advice on menu choices. Good range of drinks including 0% beer on draught. Will definitely come again when I visit Dublin
