The Green Kitchen & Garden Shop in Dublin

19/03/2025: It unfortunately did not live up to the hype. We booked a table for six people and apparently that meant that we were limited only to the chef's menu. The staff said a warning about this is on their website, but I still cannot find it. The atmosphere is quite lovely and the wines were delicious, but the food was lacking. The burrata with the tomatoes was yummy and the crab tostadas surprisingly fresh. The Pumpkin Cappellacci was delicous, but the lamb ragu was very forgettable. The ribeye was cooked well, but lacked seasoning and felt like a very cheap cut with little flavour. My friends' sole was extremely salty. The sides were also a big disappointment, with the broccoletto being so tough that I needed my steak knife to cut through it and the salad fell flat. The potatoes were okay. The tiramisu I got at the end was really good. I do have to mention that the chef's menu said that each pair could pick two sides, but when we were trying to order, we were told not to and that they would bring everything. Apparently that meant bringing all three sides twice, which was very much not what we wanted, so I have no idea why they would just assume that this was okay without asking or explaining. They did fix this when we complained, but we did get some weird looks from the staff. Overall, I found the experience to be lacking, especially for the price point. Please be aware that for large groups, you can only get the chef's menu and be very specific about ordering the sides you want. Not sure if I will be returning, but if I do, it will be in a much smaller party, so I can actually order the things I want to try.
