The best restaurants in Dublin

19/01/2026: Superb pub great atmosphere brilliant staff great service highly recommended

22/12/2025: We had our Christmas party here yesterday. The staff were absolutely fantastic. Great service & regular checks to ask if everything was OK. Niall even came over to thank us for coming in! I'd definitely recommend The Kilmadinny Inn to anyone. Looking forward to my next visit. 💚

19/01/2026: Absolutely gorgeous food ,very friendly staff. And a lovely atmosphere.

05/01/2026: Best chicken wings and the staff is always so friendly!

12/01/2026: We went on a Friday evening and although the place was very busy, it was a very quick turnaround for the food. There was two of us and we ordered 7 dishes + dessert + 2 non-alcoholic drinks, we were absolutely stuffed by the end of the evening! Our favourites were the LingFen Wonton and the Prawn crackers, though everything we ordered was delicious! We spent €87 total, which I think is quite fair pricing for the quality of the food and the restaurant. Lastly, all the staff was absolutely fantastic, and big thanks to Nicole for being so lovely and also making sure my partner’s food was chilli-free ❤️

11/01/2026: Was there on Friday and they are just the nicest staff ever. They were so accommodating and pleasant even when I had to make a few changes. Food was also fantastic, set menu for a big group was so so much delicious food, atmosphere excellent and the amazing staff were the icing on the cake!!

06/01/2026: I bought a full tray of baklava from Ella’s Heaven and it was absolutely outstanding. From the moment you open the box, you can smell the freshness real butter, high-quality pistachios, and perfectly baked layers. It’s not overly sweet or dry; the syrup balance is spot on, and every bite just melts in your mouth. It’s been a long time since I’ve had baklava of this quality in Ireland. You can truly taste the care, skill, and tradition in every single layer. I served it to guests and everyone loved it they all asked where it was from. Ella’s Heaven is not just about desserts; it’s about consistency, cleanliness, and top-level quality. I can confidently say this is the best baklava in Ireland. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates real, authentic taste.

06/01/2026: WARNING! This place was served a closure order for having cockroach’s next to food in the kitchen. A mix of live & dead cockroach’s along with cockroach’s at all life stages. Google keeps taking this review down which is shocking considering the state of the kitchen in this cafe

17/01/2026: The burgers were amazing!!! And they had a gluten-free option. We made a reservation and had no problems at all.

14/01/2026: A must-visit, very good Angus burgers

14/12/2025: Amazing prices and brilliant barstaff

23/11/2025: Newly found favourite spot for when im working in Dublin. Friendly staff, great pint and price. Great bar.

31/01/2026: We had a really nice lunch here, great flavours and nice service. Recommend the lamb chops - really good quality.

03/01/2026: A fantastic Nepalese restaurant in the heart of Dublin city. The food was outstanding and service was to match. Oh and if your enjoying wine they have one of the best collections In Dublin city 5*

16/01/2026: This is one of the authentic Indian restaurants in Dublin. Had a chat with Mr. Negi, great guy, we spoke about travels plans and all, great person to talk to. The food was also top notch, the samosas were made as they should be made. Overall, 5/5 for this place.

04/01/2026: The best Indian restaurant in south Dublin, can't wait to go back..

07/09/2025: Good place for a quick lunch, double deal has so much food it could easily feed 3 people. I expected a bit better pizza, it is tasty but does not compare to pizza I ate in Italy or another italian restaurants.

06/09/2025: I came here with my friend to order. My friend ordered a €10 pizza deal first and paid immediately with the card machine the chinese server provided. After that, I ordered a €10 pizza deal (takeaway) and a €17 pasta deal. When I paid, I was charged €37 instead of €27. We only realized after sitting down that we had been overcharged by €10. When I went back to the counter to explain, the server looked confused even though the whole thing had happened less than 7 minutes earlier. She said the refund could only be done through the card machine and that I would have to wait until the next day, instead of simply giving me back €10 in cash. What disappointed me most was not the mistake itself, but the attitude. From start to finish, there was not a single “sorry” for the inconvenience. Mistakes happen, but good service is about how you handle them. By the way that rude chinese server named BETTY.

28/10/2025: Best almond croissant of my life

26/10/2025: I thought it was even better than the last time I was there 😂 I had an almond croissant and a sausage roll 😘👌at I think 10am and I didn’t eat again until 5:30 but not sure I even needed to!

04/12/2025: A true Dublin pub, quite chill atmosphere for a bit of a chat. Perfect pints pours consitistantly and great service Not a tourist pub, if you want a true local pub experience then you will enjoy. If are looking for a plastic paddy pub head to temple bar.

17/11/2025: Nice pub, visited it on a Sunday 😁 joined for music Bingo, wich was fun 👍😁

07/02/2026: A perfect evening in a timeless atmosphere, the service was attentive, the food very good and the cocktails fantastic, thank you for this lovely moment!

02/02/2026: We had such a great time! So accommodating and great service. Not to mention great drinks. Gabby was a fabulous server who went above and beyond for our needs. This place is a sanctuary in Dublin for grown ups who want a fabulous cocktail and a good time. We'll be back soon! Update 6 months later Sad to see standards slipping after just 6 months. Went back this evening with a friend and had a very mediocre experience by comparison. Ordered some food and the hummus was bland and tasted like it came from a pre bought jar and was accompanied by soggy carrots. The waitress came over 4 times to constantly remind us that we only had the table fro 2 hours, we knew this when we booked it. With 40 minutes still left on our booking we asked for another drink and we were greeted with annoyance. Then another waitress came to remind us we had to leave. All in all, not very welcoming and sad to see standards slipping. Thankfully we found another cocktail bar nearby with cheaper drinks and nicer staff.

04/11/2025: Beautiful place, it truly embodies the Irish spirit, with plenty of space and floors to share with friends, partners, and family. It has a wonderful bar with live music for dancing and enjoying yourself—highly recommended.

03/11/2025: A lively pub with cheerful music and a huge crowd!!!

19/01/2026: Food always excellent here,staff willing to listen and provide you with your individual requirements
