Zafran in Dublin

06/03/2026: A cozy place with a feel of good food to be had. We had great evening here with friends. Crab , Calamari starters excellent. Most had Dublin bay prawns and just superb. Sides were good and very helpful waiters when we asked for items not on the menu. Enjoyed good loire wines at reasonable prices for the fish. Our party were delighted with the experience. Will be back.

02/03/2026: This restaurant has a cosy and elegant atmosphere, with attentive servers who do not rush you at all. The seafood is very tasty and the desserts looked good (though we didn't partake). The vegetable sides are almost uniformly overdone, though -- just get the creamed spinach and forget about the broccoli, cauliflower or green beans, which are tasteless and overdone. Whyyyyy??? This is a throwback place that may well be coasting on tourists. You can eat much better at many other spots in town, but the servers and the atmosphere is charming and beautifully quiet.
