An authentic Italian experience! If you are not used to Irish politeness and people being weirdly kind for no apparent reason - this is the place to go! The guy serving the food is to the point, and gives you a very true sense of Italy.
The food is delicious and you can feel it’s made of good ingredients. The card is minimalistic yet attaractive.
The order was mixed and I was a little bit scared of approaching the serving person but they just exchanged it for the right dish. In a very Italian way - grunged under the nose and took a plate with an eye roll.
I could also pay with card without any problems.

Excellent Italian spot in the heart of Dublin. A great selection of vegetarian options, wines and desserts! The waiter was so kind and helpful.

I would go here everyday if I could! I recommend this restaurant to everyone I know it’s a must see in Dublin.
It’s very cosy only a couple of tables, so a great date night spot. I would recommend booking ahead because they were turning people away at the door.
The service was amazing they let us finish our bottle of wine even though they were closing.
The dishes were gorgeous, we had the beef to start and the gnocchi ( which I would highly recommend) and the spicy tagliatelle. We finished the night with the panna cotta. I wish I had room for more tbh.
Can’t wait to come back here

This little hidden restaurant was definitely worth a visit! Aside from the cozy ambiance, the food was delicious, topped off by the complimentary water and bread baskets.
Authentic Italian and highly recommended (:

A lovely, authentic Italian experience. Worth to mention that the drinks available are water and wine only. It was delicious food and wine and the service was great.

Amazing cute cafe. Food was incredible and such a lovely cosy atmosphere really feels like your uncovering a hidden gem. However staff were very rude to my sister who is veggie and nothing can be adapted. Fair enough but could be warmer about it. Would go again (without her)

What a great find! My husband and I were walking along the River Liffey when we spotted this cozy restaurant.
The atmosphere is a tribute to their family, the staff was polite and efficient, but the food was the star of the evening! Delicious and filling, I wished I had room for dessert.
Note: If you are looking for this restaurant, be sure to look down for the sign, instead of up high on the building. It is about halfway between O’Connell Bridge and Ha’penny Bridge.

Authentieke Italiaanse keuken. Heel klein kelderrestaurant. 6 tafeltjes. Heerlijk gegeten. Aanrader. Een man in de bediening een in de keuken.

Tuve el placer de cenar en Terra Madre en Dublín, y debo decir que es una experiencia increíble. La comida era deliciosa, y estaba exquisitamente maridado con el vino perfecto que coincidía con los sabores. Las porciones fueron generosas, tanto para los entrantes como para los principales y postres.
El tiramisú, en mi opinión, es uno de los mejores. Es maravillosamente cremoso con la cantidad justa de sabor de café, por lo que es el final perfecto para la comida. Combinado con los sabores y un ambiente agradable, realmente se sentía como si uno estuviera en Italia. Para la comida italiana real en Dublín, este lugar es muy recomendable!
Buon appetito!
