F.X. Buckley in Dublin

My wife made a reservation here for my birthday today, and everything from the staff to the food, the ambiance, and the prices was absolutely perfect. We left our meal feeling extremely satisfied. Without a doubt, this was the best meat we’ve had in Dublin.

Food is spectacular.. service is attentive and super friendly. Prices are reasonable, all in all a great experience

Food is really tasty but portions are really small compared to price. Could be simple side dish with main corse that would fix it

Good standard every time. Very consistent.

Always a favourite! Love the steak and cocktails. I often come here with the girls and my boyfriend is now also a fan. Great for special occasions too.

Wonderful staff, lovely food with great value for money

The food was delicious and our waitress was fantastic. Couldn’t fault a single thing.

I did a little research and came across this establishment. I booked a reservation for my wife and I and upon booking, was offered a normal table or a “mid week special” table consisting of the chateaubrianed dinner for 2 including a 16oz filet and sides for €70. I chose the special. We arrived early and were sat quickly. We proceeded to wait roughly 5-10 minutes before someone came to ask us for drinks/starters. It didn’t seem like the special I had booked was relevant so I followed up. They honored the special, but was told the filet would be 13oz, not 16oz. That was fine and we continued on. The food was fantastic, from the bread plate, to the steaks and sides, to the dessert. Unfortunately as the night progressed, the waitress became more aloof…sometimes disappearing for a while. When we had already finished dessert and coffee, the bill was imminent, but we had to flag her down to receive it. The music of the restaurant did not suit the mood or the decor. The food saved the night, but the confusion in the reservation expectations and the lacking attention to the service was unacceptable for this classy of a place. I would absolutely come here again, but the little details matter when considering repeat business as a customer.

Great experience here for Mother's Day. Food is excellent, steaks are amazing, lovely atmosphere and really great service with super friendly staff. Great for a special treat

FX Buckley’s in Monkstown never disappoints! Their steaks are delicious, the porterhouse for two is our go-to favorite. Cocktails are spot-on every time, but what really makes the experience is the staff, they’re genuinely the best! The Monkstown location has a warm, local vibe that makes it feel like our happy place. Can’t recommend it enough! Muchas gracias! :)
