We had planned to try this local gem for a while and finally had the opportunity tonight - we were not disappointed. The atmosphere, the passionate advocacy for food pairings and wine, and of course the main man himself.
In this age of impersonal service and dishonest restaurant practices, Daniels is a tower of integrity. Bravo! Highly recommended!

I love Daniel’s restaurant. I was walking pass it, decided to head up for dinner. Had the best dinner and went again the following day. His dishes were perfectly handcrafted. Chat with some of his customers. The environment was great. Perfect dinner place. Made the trip to Ireland so great. He knows the best pairing.

We visited Daniels restaurant last night for the time and was greeted by Daniel, he welcomed us like old friends. You could tell Daniel has a passion for food in the way he described the dishes we ordered, even after 50 years of being a chef. Food was fabulous and flavours were outstanding. It was a quite night in-between the bustle of Christmas and new year's eve and Daniel took time to chat with us and has great stories to share. So we enjoyed the food as much as the company. We will certainly return again.

The best meal and restaurant experience in Dublin!! Food is amazing and the wine list is something else. Daniel runs this restaurant both taking orders and cooking the exceptional food. He is just amazing and very talented. Will definitely be back

We were visiting our son who was studying abroad in Ireland. We were staying in Dun Laoghaire, and happened upon a sign for the restaurant advertising lobster thermidor. Well, we knew we had to come back for dinner, and it was the most AMAZING meal! It was a quiet Sunday night, so we were the only customers, and Daniel invited us into the kitchen to watch him cook scallops! Never had that happen before! The fresh caught scallops were the best I’ve had, and we live by the sea in California. My husband had the lobster bisque, which you can see in other reviews, it’s is made with care and is fantastic! For mains I had the lobster thermidor, my husband had the duck, and our son had the lamb shanks. All were exceptional. For dessert we had the profiteroles, the fried ice cream, and crème caramel. We were full, but still managed to finish dessert! All of this was paired with a wonderful wine Daniel recommended. The price for the meal and wine were remarkable given the high level of quality. Thank you, Daniel, for one of the most memorable meals we have ever had!
