Slattery's in Dublin

20/06/2026: First time I’ve been disappointed at FXBs, normally so good. Ordered steak med rare and the steak came out well cooked from the outside of the steak and was only med rare at bone. Steak was tough and crumbly it was so well done at the edges. The prices have really taken a jump here now that this is priced as a high end steak restaurant.

13/06/2026: An average experience for a special occasion. I have always looked at this restaurant as a solid choice for any occasion, but our recent anniversary dinner fell short of expectations. The food was a bit of a mixed bag. The oyster selection and Iberico ham starters were pleasant, but they were extremely slow to arrive despite the restaurant not being particularly busy at the time. For the mains, the white fish was a bit too heavy on the salt and sauce. Meanwhile, the fillet steak, despite being cooked exactly as requested, completely lacked seasoning and flavor. We also found the service structure a bit bizarre, as we were served by four different people throughout our meal. While everyone was pleasant enough, seeing a new face every few minutes meant we couldn't establish any rapport, making the service feel a bit cold and transactional. The overall atmosphere was also quite flat—likely due to the impersonal service and the constant rotation of staff. We hope this was just an off-night, but this visit was a definitive 3/5.
