Damascus Gate in Dublin

the owner and the server were wonderful people, food was very quick and the atmosphere of this place felt like home in damascus. if you are ever feeling a craving some of the best middle eastern food in dublin please come here, as it’s only a couple minutes away from the city center. best hummus we’ve ever had in our life and it completely ruined future hummus for us forever. the chicken shish tawouq is lovely and perfectly marinated, seasoned and the salads are lovely. would also recommend the syrian green tea with mint and the massaya wine are lovely combinations with your food. would 100% come back again. 🫶

This place is incredible! Spotted it while walking around Dublin, and came back with some colleagues from work. Amazing staff, very unique recipes, definitely a must do!

Amazing food and great service. I had a very good experience and I will definitely come back again

I had an incredible experience at Damascus Gate Restaurant the other day. From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a memorable meal. The service was exceptional—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. But the real star was the food. Every dish was bursting with authentic flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re a fan of traditional Middle Eastern cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place delivers a truly unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended!

The food is OK not proper arabic taste for a person who has tasted real arabic foods. The food is modified for European pallets. The downside is the price is super expensive to what the potions size they are serving.

Excellent restraunt,good food and service with a lovely host. Also some tea to top it off always appreciated.

The food is delicious! I love the decoration and the customer service. I can’t wait to go back and try another dish from the menu.

Place was decent but They don't have Shisha anymore just in case if you are looking for that

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
