The best restaurants

05/04/2026: Authentic Italian food! Pastas, risottos, delicious! Good portion sizes as well! I was too hungry - ate two mains! Atmosphere is calm/relaxed, with quiet Italian music playing in the background! It’s a place for people to connect and communicate! Highly recommend for people looking for authentic Italian food!

05/04/2026: ​I recently had the pleasure of dining at this wonderful restaurant, and it was easily the highlight of my trip to Dublin. ​From the moment I arrived, I was made to feel incredibly welcome. The owner, who is also the chef, is absolutely sensational! His passion for his craft is evident, and he is one of the kindest and most personable hosts I have ever met. It’s rare to find such a warm, authentic connection in a restaurant these days. ​As for the food, it was truly exceptional, honestly the best Italian meal I have ever had. Every dish was prepared to perfection, bursting with authentic flavors and high-quality ingredients. ​If you are in Dublin and looking for a dining experience that combines world-class food with genuine, friendly service, I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

03/05/2026: Very good experience. Come here because of reviews and it was worth it!

01/05/2026: Best pub in waterford! Melisa and his son were so friendly. Sat to talk with us. We felt like family!

20/05/2026: Ireland's most northerly Pub and well worth the trip up. Great staff, delicious well priced food with plenty of choice and a warm friendly welcome. Don't pass it by after you have visited Malin Head.

10/05/2026: We had a very nice time, a lovely pint of Guiness, and delicious food in the most northern pub of Ireland

23/05/2026: This was the best meal I had in Ireland. I have to give a thumbs up to the chef and the enthusiastic waiters. Everything was wonderful when I dined here!

23/05/2026: Great food, super food service Virginia was lovely.

13/05/2026: We had just spent 3 months in Florence Italy and in Ireland touring for the last 2 months. The food here surpassed many Florence experiences. The chef will deserve your kiss after you eat here.

12/05/2026: Some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had. Especially recommend the squid ink pasta. The service was amazing (delightful Greek fellow who’s name I cannot remember, I’m sorry :’)

12/01/2026: Incredible food, incredible interior and exterior, great vibes. Very fair pricing and really nice wine and bonus my wife looked beautiful 😍

09/01/2026: Our favourite wine bar worldwide. Having sampled wine bars on five continents it’s always a pleasure to return to Kinsale and experience The Black Pig. One of the longest wine lists I have ever seen and caters for all tastes and budgets. Make sure you book as there may not be room if you pop in on chance, but they will always try and fit you in.

21/05/2026: Really lovely setting in a tucked away corner of Kinsale. Staff were very welcoming and very friendly. The restaurant had 4 different sections/rooms, all various in look and feel and a good atmosphere in all even with how early we ate (6pm). Food was tasty but I thought very expensive for some of the dishes. €50 for a piece of black sole fish and a few potatoes just seemed way over priced even though cooked well and very nice. I had looked at the menu before booking but didn't realise how pricey some of the mains were. My cured salmon starter was a little bland but my partners Lobster bisque was divine. The meringue dessert was delicious. All in all a really lovely place to dine and I would look forward to going back again.

21/05/2026: Went for a birthday dinner. Booked for 5:30 and glad we did as very crowded later. Went for the early bird menu. Food was very good. The 3 courses were large and struggled to finish it all. They do a children's menu, but very short. The chicken gougons were homemade and delicious though and more like an adult portion. Good staff. Table in a glass covered area with heating and great view of sea and a small zen garden area on the other side. We hadn't been before and very happy with our choice.

04/04/2026: Great food! One of the best places I’ve eaten at in Cork city. I appreciated the seasonal menu, which added to the quality of the ingredients. Everything we ordered was delicious. The staff was super friendly and attentive, it was such good service. I will definitely come again.

01/04/2026: Went here for dinner & honestly one of the best meals I've ever had. We had the lamb meatballs & flatbread for starter & the skillet chicken for main. The flavours were next level! Its small so definitely book a table if going for dinner, but what a gem.

04/05/2026: Very tasty food, good size portions in reasonable price. Nice selection of menu and specials of the day. Helpful and friendly staff. We've been here couple times. Over the weekend is busy, so recommend reservation (but it's not necessary). Possible to park on the street parking.

27/04/2026: Great food, very friendly staff. Fantastic breakfast.

25/05/2026: Food was fresh and well prepared, service was excellent, couldn't really comment about atmosphere as it was midweek and not busy

25/05/2026: Some of the best food I've ever had. You can tell that each dish is professionally prepared with love and care by a talented chef. Warm and inviting atmosphere and great pub attached as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great night out and wonderful multi course meal.

15/08/2025: I have been coming back for the cheese tart, but I know most of my friends also love the cheese cake! Just superb!

15/08/2025: Been coming here since they open! To all Malaysian! Those cakes and tarts are so close to home!

12/03/2026: We only had oysters. It was lovely to try flat oysters here! Thank you!

10/03/2026: Amazing fresh sea food cooked to perfection. Well worth making the effort to visit.

05/05/2026: Delicious food (great ragù) and a nice and warm atmosphere. The service was very attentive and friendly!

05/05/2026: We booked for 6:30 pm and the restaurant was still quiet when we arrived. The service was very attentive and kind, the place is beautifully decorated, and the food came quickly. The portions are just right (neither too big nor too small) and the pappardelle venison was absolutely fabulous! I’d love to come back and try more of the menu.

05/05/2026: Excellent food. I had a full sea bass, boned at the table, with a delightful curry flavour for my main. My partner had the vegetarian platter which was also great, tho I preferred mine! And the prawn starter and panacotta dessert were both delicious. A bottle of house wine and the bill was €130 including tip. As cheap or cheaper than Daata and for me the food is definitely better. Will be back.

05/05/2026: Meal was good, service less so.

20/05/2026: Lovely dinner, really enjoyed the food. Daniel is very pasionate about the food and wines he serves. Absolutly loved the duck 😋

15/05/2026: Consistently grand food at Dan’s - we had fish and chips and half roast duck with cheesy and croquette potatoes with sauté onions accompanied by a lovely Chardonnay and a nice red from South Africa. Well worth visiting
