Rotana City Restaurant in Dublin

03/04/2024: Update, March 2024: Unfortunately, the Hellfire couldn't maintain the good quality. ;( The open show kitchen no longer exists, and there is no longer pizza either. The birthday cake has also been abolished. We celebrated our second birthday here today and it wasn't the same. There wasn't even a happy birthday greeting, even though it was registered as a birthday party when booking! The staff is very friendly, but overwhelmed and doesn't ask for more drinks or food. We had to constantly ask. Our friendly waitress from the beginning (Marina) suddenly left and another (also friendly) waiter (Emanuele) took over. In the end, when we asked why everything had changed, this waiter also said that there was a new chef who changed the concept and that even people on the staff (!) didn't like it as much as they used to. People at the next table who knew it differently were also irritated and seemed disappointed; The waitress Marina also explained to these people that it was because of the new chef. The food is still delicious, although it's a shame that the steaks are pre-cut. This means they cool down quickly. Halfway through the rest was cold. In addition, everything is arranged a bit carelessly. That used to be better too. Unfortunately, the unique atmosphere is gone and the waiters also seem dissatisfied. A pity! August 2023: We had a very nice evening. The open show kitchen is spectacular and the service is very friendly. The food is extremely tasty and the prices are absolutely reasonable. This not only applies to the perfect steaks, but also starters and desserts. The Hellfire deserves an unreserved recommendation; 5 Stars.

02/04/2024: We had a great meal, perhaps the best place to have a meat dinner in Dublin. Truly highly recommended
