Yamamori Tengu in Dublin

My favorite place in Dublin. Security team very responsive and I always feel safe there.

I loved this venue over the years but I feel like the sound quality is taking a nose dive, feels like it's very distorted, standing in different areas of the dance floor can be a very different experience which is very surprising considering how small the venue is. Base is always very distorted and high end fidelity is missing. They make some quality bookings and I feel like those bookings are let down by the quality of the system.

Absolute class of a place. Staff is very friendly. Fair play to Elliot , he's an absolute legend!! Helped me out to recover my leap card from the dance floor. One of the best spots in Dublin. Has everything.

PROS - Great food, service and vibe. - Varied, delightful menu with Sake tasters. CONS - Unnecessarily expensive for size of portions and quality. Don't get me wrong, the food was excellent. But (some of) the prices are London Michelin star, not Dublin Sushi restaurant. - Large gratuity added (20%). I don't expect this in general from Ireland but from a premium Japanese restaurant it's an especially bad look in my opinion. Removing a star.

Good nightclub, we had part of nice house club music. The sound system is amazing, lovely Japanese beer and friendly staff.

Do you like to dance? 😎, best place….

I visited Yamamori for a Sake Tasting masterclass, so a bit of a special event. The location is very interesting but also a bit confusing: dark, with nice decorations on the walls but also posters around dancing, which is not what you would expect from a place where one has dinner. I think it makes for a pretty cool location for dancing though! We had 5 courses paired with 5 different sakes while the host told us facts and anecdotes about the rice drink. The first course was a bit underwhelming as it was edamame. Good but standard. I was then later delighted to find unagi prepared that way. The only place I have found in Ireland so far that serves it! I loved the takoyaki, I already had it twice before, one in Osaka and one in Tokyo and both times I had found them just meh. Yamamori one instead was delicious. Very interesting the Katsuo tataki. One for those who loved smoked food. Finally the icecream mixed with the Umeshu was a great final sweet treat. I appreciated that at the end of the meal we were all given a parting gift with Japanese food products. Will definitely go back again to try a "normal" dinner! ADD: we went back for a jazz night and found the music to be of very good quality. We had 2 cocktails and found the particularly tasty. We were impressed by the food that was rich and yet we couldn't taste every individual ingredient. A bit pricey, but worth it.
