The best restaurants in Dublin

14/02/2026: Stellar food, truly delicious. Highly recommend the halibut. Lovely quiet relaxing atmosphere.

30/01/2026: It's rare to see a Western restaurant opened by a Chinese chef. It felt like some dishes incorporated Chinese elements. The prices weren't too expensive, and the food was delicious – truly excellent.

22/11/2025: Great bar, friendly and attentive staff. It's nice and comfortable whilst relatively formal but without being stuck up.

12/07/2025: Enes makes a wonderful cocktail. Watching him prepare each drink is truly enjoyable as well. You can tell he takes pride in his craft and takes his time ensuring quality regardless of how busy he is.

22/04/2026: I've only ever had chips from this place. But the chips are simply out of this world. Hot big crispy fluffy..... One day all chips will be made this way

22/02/2026: Very simple menu which is done 100%. Fish always huge and chips properly cooked (my bugbear is undergone flaccid chips)

05/05/2026: Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here, we'll definitely be back with family and friends.

03/05/2026: Great experience at Nando’s Dublin 2. The grilled chicken was juicy and well seasoned, sides were tasty, and the service was good. Recommend! 🫶

08/10/2025: Ordering from them for the second time already! Today I decided to try their prawns noodles too,but they mixed up my order a bit😅 we called the restaurant to let them know, and they instantly sent me a new noodles for free, which was super nice of them! The sushi taste just like back home🥹 I’ve been looking for ones like these for ages and finally found them! definitely will order again :)

04/10/2025: We ordered three types of rolls, two were delicious, but the tempura was terrible, they didn't add soy sauce, all the sushi fell apart, we often order this, but this time we were unhappy

18/03/2025: Good service. Lots of different areas to sit and have a drink

03/02/2025: Nice old pub in Lucan.Staff friendly positive and humorous. Large summer area, plenty of parking space for cars A great place for a pint of Guinness.

10/05/2026: Quite expensive at €16 for takeaway fish and chips. The fish was a good size, but the portion of chips was quite small. It was good though.

03/05/2026: Get on this place folks top class

03/05/2026: Great spot for a few cocktails. Was popular but not too crowded late on a Saturday night. Friendly staff.

10/04/2026: Good traditional city pub experience located on a busy street corner with heavy pedestrian traffic. The limited outdoor seating provides a good opportunity for conversation and people watching.

23/12/2025: I was there last weekend for a few drinks with neighbours. The atmosphere is excellent and the service was fast and really good waiters and waitresses. We had 3 drinks and spent almost 30€, which is kinda ok. I haven't tried the food, but it looked really nice and the menu very interesting. Seems like they put a lot of care on what they serve. We requested a quieter area (it can get noisy) and there is this little table for 7/8 people in a little room that was just perfect. Looking forward to trying their food!

21/11/2025: This place used to be great. New chef is good. The food is good. Used to be great with the spicy chicken but it’s still good . There’s been a big turnover of managers. There’s a new guy there now. He has changed the whole vibe. We used to go there a lot. Not so much now. He is rude and unfriendly. Tries to be efficient but manages to come across as bossy and grumpy. His interaction with the staff is appalling. Some staff said reluctantly but very respectfully that he’s hard to work under. We left our most recent visit early and went elsewhere as we felt under pressure and unwelcome. It seems Pat has taken a step back and left Mary Kate and this new guy Glenn to run the show. It seems to have lost the friendly local vibe and some of the long standing amazing staff have left.

16/11/2025: Good music, good service, good coffee, and good food. Not a single complaint.

06/11/2025: Amazing café with great atmosphere! I absolutely love this place! The coffee is always fresh and delicious, and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing — perfect for studying, meeting friends, or just enjoying a quiet moment. They also have a nice selection of pastries and sandwiches, all made with great quality. You can really tell they care about what they do. Definitely one of the best cafés in Dublin — highly recommended!

17/05/2026: Great selection of beers. Possibly the biggest selection of beers on tap in Dublin! Good price on the Guinness!

15/05/2026: Very nice bar I always enjoy visiting, especially when living in the area. It's a place you miss when you leave.

19/12/2025: Incredibly warm service, owner gifted me Baklava to try. The mixed grill is phenomenal also.

05/12/2025: If falafel had milkshakes I’d be getting MAD milkshakes 5 stars 💣

10/09/2025: Great Guinness,friendly staff.Was my grandads local so went in to raise a Guinness or two for his anniversary.

08/09/2025: The barman is as thick as two planks. I asked could I charge my phone and he sent me around the shop to buy a plug. I did that and he plugged it in. I then went outside and crossed the road because my crippled friend was in the park and he followed me with the phone and the charger to give it back, instead of just leaving it to charge. Couldn't just say "No, we don't charge phones". Couldn't just leave it for a minute after plugging it in. It was very clear I just needed to charge the phone. I bought a pint of Guinness to keep them happy. Just either unintelligent or ignorant. Probably a mixture of both. Just say no and I would have asked in the South Strand next door. Smarter barmen in there.

17/05/2026: Very slow to get served at bar , staff behind bar are busy doing something else but should at least acknowledge you and explain you’ll be served in a few instead of just ignoring you , ended up leaving because of it pity because the food’s lovely down there

15/05/2026: Busy pub but great food and service.

09/10/2025: The place is mainly take away, but oh so delicious. What I loved most was that most of the food was dairy free. Something hard to come by in Dublin. Had the pea and watercress soup and it was so very delicious. Great smooth creamy and not overly salted ! Also had the sirloin sand which and it was very tasty with the truffle mayo. Which was light in feel, I could’ve had it with less mayo but I personally just don’t love mayo. Will have to return to try their other foods.

21/08/2025: Lovely place to have tea coffee and a bun.
