The best restaurants in Dublin

27/10/2025: Got guff here from one of the staff for using my laptop, although I had a couple of coffees and cakes during the week, although their silly laptop rule only stated at the weekend.

25/10/2025: Hi, I'm a long-time regular here and I really appreciate the quality you usually maintain. I wanted to flag something recently: I always order the espresso but lately, the consistency has been off. The last few times, it has tasted distinctly sour and lacking clarity, especially compared to how great it was just a few weeks ago. Since I order the same thing every time, I can really notice the shift. I tried to tell the staff, but got an exact same sour shot again, I didn’t drink it.

05/10/2025: Had a lovely meal on Sunday. Staff are fantastic. Make sure to either book a table or get there before 1pm as it fills very quickly. That's the only quibble I would have.

01/10/2025: Great pub. Many's a pint had there.Never ask the owner for a bag of ice as its very precious to him.

20/10/2025: The food of the ninja is very delicious.

18/10/2025: We are two Korean families living in Germany, and we visited Dublin for our holiday. During our five-day stay, we went to Ninja Sushi Asian Restaurant four times — twice for dine-in and twice for takeout. That probably tells you how much we enjoyed this place! Although it’s a Japanese restaurant, like many others in Europe, it’s run by Chinese staff. Because of that, the ramen has more of a Chinese-style flavor rather than a traditional Japanese one — which was the only minor downside for me. Apart from that, everything else was excellent. The rolls were large, fresh, and delicious. The basic Japanese dishes such as takoyaki and tempura shrimp were of high quality, and the donkatsu rice bowl, yaki udon, and yakisoba were also outstanding. The food was served very quickly, which made the experience even better. The lady owner and the staff were very kind and flexible. Once, due to our family situation, only our children came to pick up the food for takeout, and the owner kindly allowed us to return later to pay — which was incredibly considerate. Overall, both the food and the service were fantastic. We truly enjoyed every visit and would highly recommend this restaurant. If we come back to Dublin again, we will definitely visit here again.

21/10/2025: "Are you okay?" I asked, "Mrs. Madam, the female supervisor." After dinner, my friend and I took the initiative to pay the bill. When we went downstairs, we were cordially asked if we'd checked in. "Sister, it's the 21st century now. You could have just spent a second or two checking in with your staff. It's really hard on you to have to greet excited customers again after a meal. Please stop casually passing on your negativity to customers. However, the Taiwanese lady who served us was amazing. Thank you for your service and for helping us clarify things. I hope you have a happy life."

21/10/2025: A truly terrible experience. They even questioned me for not paying the bill??? Thank you to the Taiwanese lady for clarifying the matter and clearing our name. Otherwise, I don't know how long the female supervisor would have been harassed by us.

05/11/2025: Lovely place for a pint. Whenever I’m in Dublin, I make sure to stop by. The staff is friendly and hospitable. I’ve had friends recommend me this place in the past and I will definitely be back next time I am in Ireland. I would suggest this to anyone coming to Dublin for a visit. One of a kind type of place

25/10/2025: What a time. The blonde bartender made my night. Highly recommend

28/10/2025: Amazing food! It is a well-located restaurant and it is easy to get to. It has a very nice ambience when you go inside where you feel like you are somewhere in Asia. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The taco that I ordered was amazing! Definitely going to come back with my friends and have more of their dishes.

27/10/2025: came around 4:20pm and its been great, the sushi was ok the presentation is wonderful! tried their miso soup and it was ok as-well 🌷

12/10/2025: This was easily one of the best meals I had in Dublin. Flavourful, spicy, and warm in the belly I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious meal. Its a bit expensive, but the portions are big enough for two meals. I will always pay money for good food and will absolutely be back to this place again. In a city where this is so much bland and flavourless, this truly is a standout place.

05/10/2025: Good postion sizes. Amazing cocktails!

12/10/2025: Their banoffee pie is to die for

20/09/2025: We’ve been regular customers of Casa for years but popped in today after a few months and left disappointed. The prices have gone up (€10 for 3 tiny pieces of Brie) and the quality of the food has unfortunately gone down. My pizza was so thin that there wasn’t much to it, it was also overcooked. The chips we ordered came out at the end of the mains and were also very overcooked and barely edible. There were 4 people serving and we were the only ones in the restaurant but the service was very slow - our starters sat uncleared on the table until the mains came out. We’ve always found the service and value for money to be to be great here but it’s no longer top of our list.

29/10/2025: I just wanted to let you know that i had a wonderful night! I’ve been going to Mother Ryles for a year now, and I’ve always had great experiences there and my birthday night was no different. Your staff is amazing, I’ve always been treated so well. The food was delicious, and all of my 50 guests loved the space, the food, and the service provided by your team. I really enjoyed the privacy the space offers, and I’d love to come back for another occasion. It was truly a memorable night! I’m very happy I chose you to celebrate my birthday.

16/10/2025: I haven't tried the food, but the pub is beautiful. From the entrance, it looks tiny, but it's actually in the basement and is spacious and decorated in a very Irish style! We even heard live music even though we went during the week. The staff: super friendly!!!

25/10/2025: Very disappointed I drove so far just to listen no space

18/10/2025: Food is fantastic really recommend the onion bajhis! Staff extremely knowledgeable and friendly

30/08/2025: Ordered the bengali duck curry and it was amazing.

29/08/2025: The food is terrible. I paid 37 euros the rice was not delivered. Horrible never again
