The best restaurants

15/08/2024: We buy our plant necessities here, and ultimately, it's a great place. You can find pretty much anything you need for Gardening.

13/07/2024: Fresh, full, tasty, nice staff. Recommended

15/10/2024: They have served me food here that's inedible. They have screwed up my orders. They have embarrassed me with an overly loud argument in front of everyone. They have even flirted inappropriately with my partner. Sure, it looks the part... but I live in Portmarnock and I don't even consider this place as an option anymore.

30/07/2024: Excellent service, very tasty cocktails, reasonable prices for delicious food, large portions, quiet, cozy, calm and delicious)

09/07/2024: Simple and good. Very friendly staff! Watched football on TV with great sound. We had two meals, the burger which was great and the steak sandwich which unfortunately was disappointing to me as the steak was not so good... as it is listed as one of the specialtys of the house that should've done better! But had an overall great evening.

06/06/2024: Cozy pub / very friendly / fast service / delicious food. Highly recommended!!

28/04/2024: great spot for casual dinner, good choice, well cooked. Great staff and really good drinks menu. The pan fried cod was exceptional.

14/05/2025: Un lugar fantástico para comprar un vino de especialidad. Personal servicial y muy bien informado. Sin duda volveré, cuando visite Dublín de nuevo.

08/12/2024: Muy nuevo en Irlanda y Ballsbridge. Era viernes por la noche sucio, Susan llamó a la paradoja francesa alrededor de las cuatro o treinta y preguntó si seríamos bienvenidos para una copa o dos. Jacques lo consideró, convenció a mi esposa de que comiéramos nuestra comida principal en el almuerzo, éramos nuevos y apreciaríamos una breve visita. Acababa de hablar con mi hija sofocándose en la playa de Sydney, cuando salimos a caminar 200 m. Estaba lloviendo, con viento y volviéndose casa. En el FP nos dieron la bienvenida calificados como haber llamado y subido escaleras al restaurante Mae, sentado y quaffing Pinot Noir en un minuto y cada vez más cómodo. El francés era el básico de la maison, nuestra joven, sirviendo, era de Niza y aunque estaban ocupados montando el restaurante, encantador y atento. La cocina abierta con aromas de seducción. Jacques, cuya abuela había sido doctora en este edificio compartió algo de historia, y claro orgullo por Mae, y Grainne el patrón + chef 'par excelente'. También mostró una clara pasión por sus vinos, todos de viñedos con los que habían trabajado durante eones. Metí una pequeña charla de rugby y quedé encantado. Todo se trata de personas y relaciones. Sin duda espero con interés el almuerzo pronto y una larga visita a la bodega.

01/04/2025: I decided to bring myself on a solo date for dinner in Jacks. It was daunting going solo but I had the loveliest experience. The waiting staff made me so welcome and were attentive without being invasive, the food was lovely and they accommodated a special order. It was made even more special by the magical piano playin of JP, a pure joy and a gentleman. JP plays here Thur- Sun and OMG is he worth the visit to hear. Oh and the view from the restaurant onto the sea is AMAZING. I will be back again for sure, again and again.

11/07/2025: This needs to be updated to full hotel, at the moment only doing b and b,fabulous food lovely breakfast, well maintained inside, lovely and professional staff, credit to them, hope one day we will see it to greatness, well done girls and thanks for a lovely stay

25/05/2025: Difficult! Saltees is a hotel/motel with a restaurant. The food is delicious and of good quality, the service is good, and the staff is friendly. But: The restaurant atmosphere is unworthy of a high-class hotel. The seating seems cheap, the ambiance lacks motivation, and the bar is a permanent fixture—including drunk and rowdy guests. Furthermore, there's a pool table right next to the restaurant tables, within easy reach of the cues. It's a real shame.
