Paulie's Pizza in Dublin

30/04/2025: Authentic Italian experience, lovely staff, amazing food!

25/04/2025: My husband and I went to Grano in April. Having booked in early January we were really looking forward to the experience based on the reviews. We were NOT disappointed! It was everything we were hoping for and more. The food was amazing! The different plates (nibbles, starters, mains) were so typically Italian, we felt we were back in Italy. I had olives & deep fried meatballs as starter and delicious Ravioli parcels for mains. My husband's starter was Scaldanduja (a spicy sausage which he thoroughly enjoyed and his main course was a pasta dish, with sausage, and a tomato based sauce. The atmosphere in Grano is exciting - a great ‘Buzz’ to the place, Our server Luna was really friendly (as were all the staff). Luna was very patient helping us choose a wine which would pair well with the food we had ordered (not an easy task as they have a truly extensive, wine list with wines from all parts of Italy). The bottle she recommended was delicious and perfect with our food. Dessert was ‘yummy’. I chose a Choc Coffee Mousse with Amaretto while my husband had an Almond sponge with white chocolate ganache and a Bergamot sauce. I’m not sure of the correct title of either of these desserts but they were both delicious. A very definite 5 stars! We can’t wait to go again and look forward to making another reservation SOON!
