We found Di Luca while walking back to our hotel in Dublin. Although reservations are required, they asked if we could finish up in an hour. We happened to be there an hour before the first reservations were scheduled and the place was empty. I said "if the kitchen can do it, we can do it."
The food was amazing! I had a basic pasta dish, my wife had the night's special, hake fish with olives and capers and our friend had the gnocchi. We all raved about the food.
This is a very small place with maybe 10 or 12 tables. They were so nice to accommodate us and even with that, we never felt rushed.

We ate outside and it was nice with a little heater. Food was excellent. I had the carbonara and my wife had the ragu, both were fantastic. Portion sizes are decent, lots of flavor, carbonara was perfect.

This place was amazing! My husband and I were out walking around and were tired and hungry. We found this little gem by accident a the manager (I believe) was so friendly and nice to us that he gave us a table inside. When we first arrived he said they were completely booked. So we would have to eat outside, and it was a little chilly. Well they were so accommodating and the food was outstanding!! This place is a must for authentic Italian cuisine!! Definitely worth the trip! We’re from California.

Had a wonderful experience at this Italian restaurant! The food was authentic and full of flavor — especially the pasta, which tasted freshly made. The staff was warm and attentive, and the cozy atmosphere made it a perfect spot for dinner. Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious Italian cuisine.

We have been dining at Di Luca over the past three years, and every experience has been wonderful. The dishes are excellent, but equally inviting is the atmosphere and the very friendly wait staff. We think of it as a home away from home; it is just a great place to relax and enjoy life.

Sehr gute Lage, und direkt an unserem Hotel und ausgezeichnetes Essen.Leider etwas teuer wie überall Länder da bin. Und man muss unbedingt vorher reservieren.

Muy bonito y acogedor lugar. Relajante y encantador. La comida era deliciosa, especialmente la pasta de marisco. Limoncello spritz también fue genial! Servicio amable. Un agradable descanso de las multitudes turísticas de Dublín.
