The best restaurants in Dublin

29/05/2024: Quantity is way less for the price which cannot be justified even with taste.

26/10/2024: Red Thai curry and pad Thai are phenomenal, I wish they had proper dining tables. Staff are very friendly

16/10/2024: Need to pay 2 euro for a egg 🥚 with the pad krapow?? 😒 🤔 I've never been charged before.

16/10/2024: Food amazing absolutely fabulous 10/10 service highly recommend it

11/10/2024: Been coming here off and on for years. The food is always good, staff amazing and some good banter to be had!

16/11/2024: It really is a tourist trap - and I'm not even a tourist. I decided to bring my friend here and I was utterly disappointed. The food is way below par for a quality seafood-based restaurant. We both had the "crab and lobster tortelloni". You could barely taste either. That, at €34 per person. It was just very bland and ordinary. Nothing worse that outrageous price. We decided to have desserts too, and they were equally underwhelming. I had the "chocolate fondant" and it was the smallest fondant I have ever had; looked more like a small browny. Unlike an actual fondant, it was cooked all the way through - no gooey centre. Like the mains, it was just average. We also tried the Irish Coffee and it was the worst Irish coffee I have ever tried in my life - you couldn't even taste the whiskey or warmth. It tasted no different to just a normal cup of coffee. This isn't good enough, sorry. If you are a tourist - or indeed anyone else - hoping to find quality food in Howth, this is the place to absolute avoid. I'm €150 worse off because of it, and nothing but negative memories. I hope my experience is heeded by others to ensure that this establishment is forced to elevate the standards where they need to be, rather than ripping off customers just because of where the restaurant happens to be located. Awful. Just avoid.

16/11/2024: Ideal place but on busy days, service can be somewhat slow

11/10/2024: Booked a Deluxe Superior room for €264, got budget hotel service and budget hotel bathroom to match! Received very dismissive and poor attitude from night manager when we arrived, he just shrugged his shoulders when I asked him where it would be best for us to park our vehicle. I was told the following morning that we could have parked right outside the hotel in pay and display spaces! Reported the issue to Engin in the morning, and he apologised for our experience and gave a €55 refund. Now, the room we were checked into (#255 Jonathan Swift) is classed as Deluxe Superior, and charged at €264 per night - PLEASE BE WARNED - it had a budget hotel bathroom. See pictures that I took. Breakfast (food and service) was excellent, and the ONLY highlight of our stay at Ariel House.

08/10/2024: Very beautiful Victorian house, charming, conveniently located.

02/11/2024: Best Turkish coffee in Dublin, great service. Coming back for the moussaka!

27/10/2024: Restaurant Balkan is truly a gem. I always come here to enjoy their delicious ćevapi—it’s authentic, flavorful, and always cooked perfectly. The friendly service makes every visit even better, from the warm hospitality of the waiters to the welcoming presence of the owner, Davor, who goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels at home. The cozy atmosphere adds to the experience, making it a perfect spot to enjoy great food in a relaxed setting. A 10/10 experience every time—highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Balkan cuisine!

04/11/2024: Great bit of craic on a satuday evening. Staff are fab

27/10/2024: Could be a lovely pub, filthy toilets and staff seem annoyed that customers exist

08/11/2024: Food is edible. Way too over priced

07/11/2024: This is a great little spot to host an event, we rented the back room for a birthday party. Enough space to have table and chairs for everyone and enough floor space for a dance floor, we also had a microphone and speaker for impromptu karaoke. If you're just going for a drink here then it's alright, nothing special but nothing bad either.

06/10/2024: Well poured and good priced Guinness pints

04/09/2024: Great staff, relatively cheap pints, great Trad/reggae session on early Monday evenings.. 5 onwards..

16/11/2024: Not possible to split bills Food was good

16/11/2024: Great restaurant in a great location. Staff very nice and good was excellent

02/11/2024: Strong pub! Good atmosphere and friendly service.

28/10/2024: Great karaoke 🎤 on a Sunday night by nolal white and brilliant atmosphere there I really enjoyed it 😄😄 😄

06/11/2024: They had a lunchtime deal for 1 Classic Pizza and a drink for 12 Euro. I mentioned I don't need the drink, so when the bill came I was charged 18:95 because I said I didn't want a drink. When I attempted to explain that I wanted the Drink and Pizza deal, the waitress said she couldn't charge for the deal without me ordering a drink. So I asked her to add a drink, to which she started to roll her eyes and tell me that it wasn't possible. The Pizza was okay. The service was unacceptable. My colleagues all ordered the same deal and got charged appropriately. The waitress never mentioned to me at the time of ordering that I would be charged the normal price if I didn't select a drink.

31/10/2024: Lovely venue for a family meal. Great food and atmosphere. Great service, friendly and quick. Nice outfits on staff. Great to be able tobsee the pizza dough being made. Kids enjoyed watching the dough being thrown in the air while it was being made.

16/08/2024: Love this gym so much. Joined it last Xmas after leaving my old one. Everyone is lovely and helpful if you are lost in any way. Prices are good for the quality. And there are lots of machines and resources. It’s also a popular and social place to work out, and there is always lots of people there. Quietest times tend to be around lunch time.

13/08/2024: Best gym in ireland is right! Great atmosphere, equipment, facilities and staff. Prices are also extremely reasonable there is a hair salon, cafe, tanning salon and even a recovery room in the gym. I cant recommend it enough don't waste your time in another gym.

05/04/2024: Nice ambient 👍 Nice coffee ☕️ 😋 Nice experience👌😊

27/03/2024: Loveliest staff, brilliant coffee and great selection of sambos and Irish coffees. Couldn’t recommend enough!
