The best restaurants in Dublin

08/12/2025: This is the place for a enjoyable day out

06/12/2025: Attended a conference at Leopardstown Racecourse and was really impressed. The facilities are excellent – modern, well organised, and perfect for hosting large events. The staff were helpful throughout, and everything ran smoothly. The views over the racecourse are fantastic and add something really special to the day. Overall, a brilliant venue for conferences, meetings or events. Highly recommended.

08/12/2025: The best steak I’ve had in Dublin. Staff were wonderful. Atmosphere amazing. I’ll 100% be back.

07/12/2025: Had a group dinner. The service was fantastic and the decor of the restaurant is amazing. The chicken lifer pate was nice and flavourful. I had a ribeye steak and it was salted a little too much for my liking but the peppercorn sauce and mash was very delicious.

08/02/2026: Do not spend your money here! Or anywhere in temple bar… 9,50€ for a pint of cider served with an attitude… telling me not to be cheeky when I asked for some tap water for my friend who was not feeling good. 9,00€ for a guiness as well. You can have guiness for 6€ in Dublin, lol! We were a big group and with the attitude, most of us decided not to get anything, your loss

07/02/2026: What a wonderful evening we had here as tourists. Go up the stairs and you're treated to a fantastic atmosphere and live music. Everyone sings along!

10/08/2025: My partner and I left vomiting all night and extreme stomach sickness after eating here, no manager to speak to, to help deal with this situation, was left speaking to the assistant manager who has no clue what she is doing and accused me of lying just to get my money back, told me to go get proof that im sick from the doctor, said her name was Monica just talked over me the whole time on the phone and acuused me of lying and was shouting at me the whole phonecall, absolutely horrible person, has no place in a customer service job, please dont eat in this dump unless you want to be sick and abused

19/06/2025: Food so good staff are so helpful and friendly

18/11/2025: Fantastic lunch on Sunday. We had a group of 6 with 2 kids and Murphy’s was ideal. Great food and kids menu. Staff were really friendly and popped us in an ideal spot. We will be back for the curry 🙌

15/10/2025: Great food and drink, friendly staff.

19/11/2025: Order: chicken chop suey with fried noodles. Received: chicken chop suey with fried rice. It is a busy and noisy area, so mishearing happens. Not ideal, but not tragic. 5/10 Food: one of the better chop suey dishes I have had from Chinese takeaways. Not excellent, slightly too salty, but they followed my instruction no celery, and the tray wasn't overloaded with onion. Solid effort. 7/10 Portion: standard size, nothing exaggerated, but fully fair. The best part: only 10.80, while others charge 13-15+ for the same dish. 10/10 Service: simple packaging - plastic tray for the main, aluminium tray for the side, basic brown paper bag. No napkins, no chopsticks, no cutlery. Functional but minimalistic. 6/10 Price: for Dublin standards, extremely affordable. Genuinely surprising in a positive way. 10/10 Overall: 8/10. Good value, good taste, and very fair pricing. Despite the mix-up, I will definitely return.

06/11/2025: 10/10 every time, open tray 4 in 1 is deffo the best in Dublin. Get some amount of chicken. Deffo on the pricier side for a 4 in 1 but actually not the worst for the amount you get. LOVE, struggle to get from other Chinese since having this.

04/10/2025: Hidden gem, great for a breakfast/brunch treat. Food is excellent, good menu with plenty of options, coffee is best in the area. Staff are exemplary, extremely attentive and welcoming. Would highly recommend.

02/10/2025: Second time ordering the same dish here. The breakfast salad. 1st time it was incredibly salty so said I'd try again. This time was not seasoned. The asparagus was thicker than my thumb and fibrous. Salad leaves not dressed. Eggs were very good. Children's menu is good value and child enjoyed food. Perhaps i am ordering a less popular option, however both times this was reccommend by waiting staff. After meal was delivered no follow up at all to see if the food was ok or if we needed anything. Eventually went inside to pay.

05/02/2026: Stopped in for dinner and fair play, it didn’t disappoint. Lovely spot, great views, && the food was spot on. Had the firsh and it was falling apart, full of flavour. Staff were sound and on the ball, no waiting around. Proper relaxed atmosphere too.

01/01/2026: Great location, great views, and awesome food. The staff was friendly and attentive, food came out hot and pretty quick! That lamb just fell off the bone when you touched it, steak was full of flavor, never had crusted brie before and it was awesome.

13/07/2025: La comida era excelente, especialmente su ramen de mariscos. Me encantó el sabor del salmón. El servicio fue excepcional. Los servidores fueron atentos y corteses.

19/06/2025: Uno de mis lugares favoritos para comer sushi. Siempre delicioso y consistente. Mi favorito es el rollo de catapillar y el inari. Personal amable también.

25/01/2026: Overly priced for very poor food. Pizzas we got not very pleasantly tasting and one had burnt crusts. Bruschetta starter we had was average taste wise but the tomatoe topping was excessive. Pretty restaurant but very noisy. If you need to use the toilets you have to ask a member of staff for a code to get into them and there is no sign to direct you to them. First and last time we will go here.

25/01/2026: Perfect date spot but I wouldn’t even bother trying to bring more than 4 people as they clearly cannot accommodate. The first time I visited with a party of 2 was brilliant however when I visited again with a larger party of 8 we were placed on a table that wasn't even in the restaurant. Half of our party were sat in the rain and told that there is nothing they can do by a manager despite having booked a month in advance and noting that it was a special occasion. Service was terrible and we were only seen once our entire visit and received no apology or accountability for the shocking treatment. Feel bad for our waitress who had to try to resolve a problem that wasn’t her fault but the manager was pathetic and tried telling me that the whole restaurant was sat in the rain until I pointed out that the rest of the restaurant was sat under a cover except our table. Ended up having to argue with him to get money off as he refused to apologise or offer any compensation but at least they gave us a discount in the end. Was disappointing as I had told everyone how good it was and I had such high expectations based on my previous experience but it was a massive let down. I wouldn’t bother visiting with a larger party at all as they will ignore you most of the time. The hen-do at the table next to us received similar service, saying that had been sat down for hours and only managed to get 2 drink orders in when we spoke to them so it wasn’t just a one off experience unfortunately.

30/12/2025: A charming hidden gem in portobello Dublin

02/12/2025: Grand little spot altogether. Popped in for a morning coffee last Saturday and couldn’t fault it – smooth, hot, and exactly what I needed to start the day. Ended up grabbing a nice bottle of wine for the evening as well. Staff were sound and the place has a lovely relaxed vibe.

16/12/2025: The stew was delicious. I wasn't asked how it tasted during the meal, nor how the beer the bartender recommended tasted. It also has the feel of a cozy pub if you're with people you know, but if you're alone, you won't get any conversation. Not even if you're sitting at the bar; the staff don't seem particularly welcoming to tourists. Perhaps the bartender wasn't in the mood today; during quieter moments, he leaned against the bar rather than chatting.

28/11/2025: Booked the sitting room bar in Foleys Bar for my sisters hen party. The staff were fantastic to deal with from start to finish, so friendly, helpful and professional, especially Jazmine who dealt with our booking from the start and then Shane on the night. Thank you so much for everything!

01/02/2026: Unfortunately, the food wasn't good. There were five of us, and none of us enjoyed it. The service was okay, but there were misunderstandings, and despite us explaining it was a misunderstanding, the server insisted, repeatedly stating, that she hadn't said anything wrong. Nevertheless, it's a nice restaurant; the seating is comfortable, and the atmosphere is pleasant.

01/02/2026: Had food from here last night with my partner. amazing staff and service but was left up half the night with food poisoning.

01/12/2025: I had the absolute pleasure of trying the lime and chocolate dessert at One Square restaurant, and wow—this is a game changer. The balance of flavours is perfection: the bright, zesty kick of fresh lime cuts beautifully through the rich chocolate layer, and the creamy topping is so light it practically floats. Every bite feels refreshing yet indulgent. The base has just the right amount of crunch, and the lime zest and chocolate drops on top tie it all together visually and taste-wise. It’s one of those desserts that makes you pause after the first spoonful because you know you’re tasting something special. Elegant, creative, and absolutely delicious. If you’re looking for a dessert that’s both refreshing and luxurious, this is the one. A must-try!

13/11/2025: First visit and was absolutely delighted with the genuinely friendly service. Very relaxed atmosphere too. Food was great except the fish was quite bland, only complaint. Cocktails 🤪!! just to enjoyable, 😁 so again, really nice host and staff, best we've came across for quite a while, so would definitely recommend🍸🍹🍷🍺🥧

07/11/2025: Staff brilliant friendly and helpful from the lads 2 Jen and Co I have a great time with them

04/11/2025: Acai Bowl and Iced Latte are so good
