Romayo's in Dublin

25/07/2026: Great valve for your money. Had a three course meal. Good food.

18/07/2026: Good Food, Good Service, Good Value. This is exactly what a cafe/restaurant should be and what has become so difficult to find. The food is excellent with a great variety across the menu, and the best chips I’ve had in a long time. The service was friendly, genuine, efficient, attentive, and professional. There was the correct number of good staff, looking to serve the patrons, as opposed to the more recent trend of an excess of staff that actively avoid eye contact and leave you frustrated. The food was served on properly sized plates, which again is something that has become harder to find. Too many restaurants have picked the plates and cups first because of the aesthetic, and not factored will the food fit on it. The focus at Cafe Monto is clearly the food first and then having appropriate tableware, not tableware that looks good on instagram but is not functional. Finally, for the first time in a long time I felt that I paid an appropriate amount for what I received. This is the very fundamentals of dining out done right, something that has all but disappeared from Dublin in recent years, and I cannot recommend Cafe Monto enough.
