The best restaurants in Dublin

21/07/2026: You don’t get more Irish than this place. Irish traditional music, the best (voted!) pints of Guinness in Ireland and lots of locals to hang with! Busy but a fun busy! Lots of tourists but that also makes it fun.

19/07/2026: The service at hang dai is truly outstanding - the staff (Fernando in particular) went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and well looked after. Food is also excellent and overall highly recommend.

11/07/2026: One of my favourite restaurants in Dublin. Everytime my wife and I go there for dinner, we have the best experience. The food is delicious, so is the wine and the service is always perfect. There are also lots of vegetarian options. I can't recommend this place enough!

30/06/2026: V busy for good reason. Vibes are always immaculate here, great matcha & great selection of food

24/06/2026: Best matcha I’ve ever had and still ever had. With the lavender syrup and a good balance you can taste the matcha with the subtle sweetness from the syrup making it a beautiful made matcha latte.

14/07/2026: Great place, delicious coffee. Even if you just bought coffee and accidentally spilled it, don't worry, they'll make you a new one, completely free.!!)) Thank you!!))🤝👌👋☀️🌶️☕☕

12/07/2026: A cute place with loads of places to sit. The matcha was really good, the only down side is it was really sweet. It would be nice if they asked because I honestly assumed it wouldn’t be sweetened. Apart from that a really chill place.

21/06/2026: Fantastic hotel. Very friendly staff in a great location, very walkable. Best buffet breakfast I’ve ever had. Would stay here again just for the food!

21/05/2026: Lovely stay at the Mespil. Great rooms and excellent breakfast. Quite location (15-20 minutes from centre) but plenty of great restaurants around.

15/05/2026: Authentic pub, very friendly and good meal, followed by an Irish coffee and dessert

14/05/2026: Loved this pub, awesome fresh fish and chips with really thick chips great beer, great atmosphere very large pub right inho Howth

03/08/2026: We were really looking forward to trying this restaurant. Unfortunately, the welcome was a little underwhelming, although the waiter looking after our table was friendly, attentive and professional. The starters and the burger were both very good, but the tagliatelle ragù was a real disappointment. It felt like quantity over quality. The tagliatelle tasted like a very cheap brand, and the sauce was bland, lacking the rich, slow-cooked flavour you'd expect from a proper ragù. It certainly didn't live up to its description. Overall, there were some positives, but based on this visit, we left feeling a little disappointed.

02/08/2026: Great food and service as always

03/07/2026: A somewhat small restaurant, excellent food, and friendly staff

28/06/2026: We had a fantastic meal at Baan Thai Ballsbridge. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. The restaurant itself has a lovely atmosphere, with beautiful Thai décor that creates a warm and authentic dining experience. The food was outstanding. Everything we ordered was fresh, full of flavour and beautifully presented. I highly recommend the spare ribs—they were tender, packed with flavour and simply delicious. The chicken red curry was another highlight, with a rich, fragrant sauce and perfectly cooked chicken. The portion sizes are very generous, offering excellent value for money without compromising on quality. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into both the food and the overall dining experience. If you’re looking for authentic Thai food in Dublin, I can highly recommend Baan Thai Ballsbridge. We’ll definitely be back!

06/07/2026: Delicious food and great service, highly recommended.

05/07/2026: Food so tasty, that forgot to make any picture of it 😅
