Lobster Pot in Dublin

Pre rugby international lunch. I'd have to fez up that we are regulars before the matches but living in Belfast we are at a disadvantage to those of you living in or visiting Dublin. Gary and the team there will look after you like Lords and Ladies.

Everything about this place is old style including the entrance stairway to the second floor. The decor inside leads to a long gone time. The waiter brings a large platter of the starters to your table for you to view and gives an explains in detail the ingredients. The menu is amazing but I always choose fish as it has the best seafood in town. The waiting staff are extremely polite and efficient and treat you as though you are very special. Again there is a display of the desserts which are very tempting and it is difficult to choose as they all look so good. A thoroughly pleasant experience and it is one of my ‘go to’ places

Had a beautiful meal. Ambience terrific. Special place. Thank you Gary & Team Dermot Crookes

The Lobster Pot is just outside Dublin's Old Town. On the first floor it is a chic and classic restaurant. A calm ambience with lots of silver and crystal. The food is French with an emphasis on seafood. We had the homemade fois gras which was very light and fluffy. Then we had the house recommendation, sole fillets, lobster and prawns in white wine sauce. The sole and prawns were cooked perfectly, the lobster a bit tough. There was plenty of sauce which could have been a bit more sophisticated. The desserts were very good, we shared a raspberry meringue which was really delicious. The service was very professional, even if a bit quirky at times. The restaurant was very well attended, there were many regular guests, which speaks for the constant quality. We had a very nice place with a view of all the guests. The visit is not "cheap", but the ingredients are all very high quality and the French white wine offered was very good.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Incredible staff. Love it
