Il Fornaio in Dublin

The pasta is really good, and as an Italian, I'd say it's better than some restaurants in Italy. The entire staff is knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend this place.

Very welcoming staff and delicious food

Great place, the service is amazing! I am italian and was here with school, everything was authentic italian recipes, with amazing quality, especially the pasta. The staff has no problem talking in italian if needed. And the prices are honest and similar to what you'd find in italy(which is low compared to everywhere else in dublin). A couple of guys working here are actually from italy, so the authenticity is guaranteed! The waitress, is very kind and cheerful, and if some mistake happens in the kitchen, she has no problem in apologizing. All of the staff is welcoming and we made friends with them almost as soon as we found out about them. Incredible restaurant, it feels like being with family, we'd definitely come back if given the chance

Very welcoming and helpful staff. Best food I've had in a while.

As an Italian I can say that the food is delicious and the staff is very helpful.

Amazing food, staff super friendly and nice, as a italian i strongly recommend this place

Nice place for a quick lunch/coffee Staff working are kind and there's a multicultural vibe. I personally recommend the pasta carbonara.

We only had a chance to visit this place in the morning's before work. Coffee is delicious, both the flat white and the americano. The freshly made croissants are very tasty and light especially the one with pistachio cream. Staff are super friendly and fun. The cafe opens from 7.30am on a week day which is rare for Dublin.

We stumbled across this place by chance and honestly, it's been the best place in Dublin for coffee. The prices are very good considering it's Dublin, the staff are super friendly and helpful, the place is very clean, the pastries are amazing—fluffy and flavorful, the coffee portions are generous, and they have coffee and pastry deals for €6. 11/10, I don't know what more you could ask for.

I ate here 2 times and both times i really enjoyed both the service and the food. I'm italian and i felt like at home again 5 star recommended
