Toscana in Dublin

Getting there via the dart train service is very easy. It is a very short walk from the Sandycove station to the restaurant. The building is old world charming, the staff members were very friendly and helpful. The menu had a great selection to choose from, the wine selection was also surprisingly nice. We enjoyed our meals and most of us selected the salmon - it was very nice. I did ask for mash instead of potato chips but when I saw the potato chips on someone else's plate I regretted the request! Their potato chips were very nicely cooked - crispy on the edges and soft inside. Just perfect. There is parking across the street but due to the one-way access road changes in Dun Laoghaire you can only access that if you are driving south from Dun Laoghaire - not driving up from for example Sandycove. I also have to mention that if you get the table next to the window you have a great ocean view and if the weather behaves, you can also get a clear view of Howth.

It is always a pleasure to dine here. Polite and welcoming staff, fresh food, great for special occasions. Will be coming back soon

We had a lunch for a christening and the food was delicious and the staff were lovely. Thanks to Andrea who entertained our baby while we got to enjoy our meal peacefully for a few minutes :)

The lasagna was absolutely delicious — I loved it! The garlic bread with mozzarella was also very tasty. I wasn’t too fond of the tiramisu; the chocolate sauce on top was a bit unusual, but it was still fresh and light, so worth trying. You’ll be dining with a magnificent view, so come here to treat yourself!

We had a lovely lunch hewtew overlooking the bay. Great food, friendly service and excellent , we'll be back

We had the most fantastical This evening . The service was fantastic, the atmosphere was warm And charming The food was incredible, Cannot wait to return

We decided to give this restaurant another try as we haven't been in about 15 years and couldn't remember any reasons for not going back. Positives: - Nice table upstairs by the window (as requested) with great views of the sea front - Good service. The waiter was attentive and our food came out in good time. Negatives: - Quiet ambiance. - We had decided to have an early bird meal but had to ask the server for the menu when we sat down as we were only given the a la carte menu - Early bird menu appeared to be good value but we noticed a supplement of 3 euro to add a side to a main dish. The chicken portion was small and came with nothing else if you did not opt to pay for a side. A la Carte is expensive for what you get. I added prawns to a pizza and it cost 4.50 euro for 4 x prawns. I also opted for a side of seasonal veg at 7 euro and was extremely disappointed with a sad looking side plate of 2 x bits of brocolli, 3 x carrot sticks and a baby potato sliced in half. Not worth 7 euro. The desserts were also expensive at 9 euro. The restaurant food and service is good but I think that the food is overpriced for what you're getting and based on the pricing alone, I would not be likely to dine here again.

I was very excited to try here when my friend suggested a meal and after looking at the menu. The food options are great. The reason for my low rating is the reaction I got from the waiter after I asked him a simple question about parmasan. Also there was a lot of fruit flies around our table.

Came for a work dinner. The food was INCREDIBLE! The appetiser were really good but the pizza was one of the best I’ve had! The service through the evening was impeccable. 100% recommended!

Been to this restruant a few times and cannot argue about the food it has always been lovely, but on this occasion my friend discovered a piece of foil in her pasta having mentioned it to the waiter but that was as far as it went, my friend finished her meal as apart from that incident she enjoyed it, it would have been nice if the staff had been a bit more apologetic and not so "non chalant" about foreign objects in your food
