The best restaurants in Dublin

20/10/2025: Lovely decorated cafe with an abundance of gorgeous cakes (haven't eaten any so can't comment) Unfortunately the unfriendly staff, who border on being rude, let's it down every time. The final straw was yesterday, Sunday, when I was left standing at the counter while the young waitress counted money at the till. She made no comment on the delay and totally ignored me. After 3/4 minutes, I gave an exasperated sigh & the male waiter, who was standing nearby, came to take my order. No apology & of course, no smile or comment made. Obviously people go there as it's a nicely decorated cafe with a great array of cakes. But I can take my business elsewhere where the customers are treated with some respect. We are after all, keeping these surly staff in a job

09/10/2025: Hi I love everything about Taste of Province. I come almost every, my family and friends meet me there a lot. One thing that is upsetting is the cleaner, she makes so much noise, pushing the tables and chairs around .

25/02/2025: Enjoyed a meal here for Sunday lunch, I had the roast beef, which was delicious real good cut, my wife had fillet of cod which was also lovely, service was also good and the atmosphere nice also but the big letdown was the price of a glass of wine, €13.50, absolute robbery thus the 3 stars, can’t understand for the life of me how that price can be justified for a glass of wine

07/12/2024: Excelente comida, servicio, menú y ambiente. Éramos una fiesta de 20 personas y recomendaría este restaurante

30/12/2025: I have eaten here twice and realty enjoyed it. Solid Italian fare mostly and close to a great pub. Staff were very hospitable. Worth the trip to Howth.

24/12/2025: Christmas Eve family meal and I felt sorry for the staff left trying to run the restaurant. From the moment we arrived it was amateur hour . Won’t be back and will not recommend to any one.

11/01/2026: The staff that was working here, the last time I was there. They didn't cook the burger enough, I got food poisoning, Also they was not ringing the order through the till, "And was pocketing the money."

06/01/2026: Was ok not great value for money. Chicken was very small in red basket option .

21/12/2025: Nice pub, nice pints and they let us bring in food from outside. Atmosphere was perfect on a lazy Sunday afternoon

16/12/2025: Lovely people everyone is so friendly.

07/12/2025: Lovely pub with great furniture style. Fine pint of Guinness too at a reasonable price! Not much here to complain about, would recommend!

11/11/2025: Had a family funeral to attend and the wake was here. Great pub, friendly staff and great music on a Thursday

07/01/2026: We took a day off work to visit Volpe Nera just before Christmas as it came so highly recommended. It lived up to it. Every dish was perfect, the wine delightful and the service flawless. It is a spot for a leisurely meal. Highly recommend booking ahead.

21/11/2025: Absolutely worth leaving central Dublin for. Found this place on Condé Nast and made the 15minute trip down on the dart. It was the first night of the sharing wild Halibut for 2 and was the best fish we have had this year. The fish was brilliantly paired and plenty for two people. The fish was so good the croquettes as a bite and desert could not compare. Great sommelier (€80 bottle of wine and €200 altogether). Proper value for superb quality.

01/12/2025: This is no longer Fitzgerald's!!!?

30/11/2025: Very nice pub, reasonable prices and a good atmosphere. The music isn't too loud, which allows for conversation with friends. Very well located.

10/01/2026: Absolutely loved my experience at Gin Palace! Everything was perfect from start to finish, the food was delicious, the drinks were great, and the ambiance was welcoming. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made the whole evening even more enjoyable. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely recommend Gin Palace to anyone looking for a fantastic night out.
