Ruby Finnegans in Dublin

16/03/2024: The drinks were really good, but the service was not. We waited 20 minutes before anyone came over and finally went to the bar to order and the bartender said someone would come but we then waited again.

10/03/2024: There was an initial mix up about our booking, but Stephen went out of his way to fix it and ensure that we had a lovely time celebrating my 50th birthday. The waiting staff were so attentive and helpful providing extra little touches like candles in my dessert that made the day special. The restaurant has a lovely ambiance, though I was quite surprised that it was so empty when we arrived at 12:30 on a Saturday. It didn't start to fill up and have a nice buzz until well after 1pm. The food was delicious and beautifully served. I would definitely recommend this restaurant - an oasis of calm in the hustle and bustle of temple bar.
