I booked Darwin's for a pre-show meal with my partner because it was convenient to the hotel. We ordered a shared main course (a Porterhouse) even though we don't like our steaks cooked the same way however the waiter helpfully suggested taking some away to cook longer. My god, it was fantastic! Nicest steak I've had in a while with a beautiful flavour even if it was cooked a bit less than I'd like. Sauces were fab and so we're the sides even if they were a bit small. The bill was fairly high but in line with Dublin prices. The building could do with a bit of TLC though, the ceiling was leaking at the back and the frontage out to the street undervalues the food within.

Absolutely delicious. Got the cajun chicken and husband got striploin. Both were gorgeous. Lovely setting. I think the outside let's the place down a bit. It doesn't look like it would be as nice as it is because inside is stunning and has a lovely ambience. Would definitely come back here.

Darwin's - A Top Spot!
Just hit up Darwin's with three of my mates, and it was a solid win!
First off, the cocktails are seriously good. We tried a few, but the Amaretto Sour? Absolutely spot on, gotta try it!
For food, we went for the sharing meat boards. Perfect for a group, loads of tasty meat to go around. And listen up, the onion rings are a MUST-HAVE! Seriously, don't skip them, they're unreal.
Great spot, great food, great drinks. You won't be disappointed!

i think its time has passed, everything was a bit dingy. they were out of wagyu even though it was still on the homepage, my steak was definitely not medium rare, the sides were good, so was the meat quality, the waiter was not too friendly

My friends and I had a birthday meal at Darwins Restaurant today, and I think it's enough to say that in my 32 years of living this is the 2nd review I've left on Google.
Darwins is absolutely amazing, starting with the staff.! The atmosphere they created for us to feel comfortable, they way they engaged with our table. The little wine glass joke from our server tonight.! 🤣 Those little things that made it an absolutely wonderful time.
The food, matches the staff quality wise :)
Steak was cooked perfectly medium and the portions were a killer, I wished I wore my "expandable trousers".
The chef was also out on the floor to talk us through the menu, make recommendations, joke around with us.
Thank you so much for such an amazing evening.
P.S. apologies if we were a tad bit too loud 🫣🫣🫣
Loved the place, would recommend 100%, We Will Be Back.! ❤️🥩

A noble steak we had there. Recommend.
We had excellent service, but the place was quiet when we were there early in the evening.
The mood was nice.

Viaje de rugby padre e hijo.
Comimos langostinos con chile y pan madre al ajo y paremesano para empezar. Tanto el delicioso como el pan de ajo era una porción especialmente generosa.
Ambos comimos filete y puré con verduras mezcladas y aros de cebolla. El filete se cocinó según lo solicitado, tanto tierno como sabroso. El puré fue lo mejor que hemos tenido. Los aros de cebolla tenían una masa crujiente encantadora.
Los desiertos de queso y galletas con oporto y brownie de chocolate eran sabrosos.
Tomé un par de copas de vino y refrescos y agua para lavarlo.
El servicio fue muy atento y amable.
Lo recomendaría sin reservas.

Éramos un grupo de seis que fuimos por el menú temprano. Entre los seis teníamos una gran variedad de platos y todos eran excelentes y muy buena relación calidad-precio. El servicio fue excelente también. Recomendaría Darwin’s.
