The best restaurants in Dublin

15/10/2026: Very nice place, amazing food. A bit loud, but still nice and cozy. Great food

07/10/2026: six of us had dinner here recently to celebrate a 30th birthday. Anna and Arsen were great hosts and food was, as ever, top notch. Service not fussy or casual but the right blend. We tried most of the starters and the fish and meat mains (including the superb salmon special) and desserts were had also. Everyone was glowing in their comments. A great spot for any occasion, lunch or dinner. Just remember to book in advance as it can get busy!

12/10/2026: Very quick service and some of the best food I've ever had in dublin. We were celebrating our anniversary and received prosecco and a rose which was a lovely gesture

12/10/2026: We were there last year and it was just as delicious this time. We had garlic bread as a starter and pasta each as a main course. Both were fantastic! Highly recommended!

30/09/2026: I came here because of the good reviews and they did not disappoint. Food and service were excellent. I'll definitely come back.

12/09/2026: Absolutely gem of a restaurant. So glad we stumbled on this place while holidaying in Dun Laoghaire. Great food and wonderful staff. Very authentic.

04/10/2026: Another memorable visit to Dax. Our night was just perfect from start to finish. A warm friendly welcome, exceptional food and exceptional service. Dax continues to source the finest ingredients and uses them to to create the most interesting and delicious dishes. I highly recommend Dax who will make any occasion magical.

03/10/2026: Truly wonderful dinner, excellent service. A memorable experience

13/08/2026: A really special but really cozy spot, tucked half below street level so you watch the legs of passersby drift past the windows while you eat. Classic Italian cooking done really well, the food was great, and the service and atmosphere matched it

05/08/2026: Great atmosphere and food, friendly attentive owner

16/09/2026: Declan and Donal are the greatest! This place is legendary, highly recommend the full Irish breakfast roll - hands down the best breakfast sandwich I've had. Stopping here will always be a non-negotiable every time we're in Dublin.

12/09/2026: We were recommended this take out restaurant by our taxi driver, and we’re so glad we took his advice! We had a wonderful breakfast and a really pleasant experience. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was excellent, and we would happily come back again! Highly recommended!

23/09/2026: Excellent restaurant and they have kept up the great quality over the years, that’s very impressive. Great food and staff. Highly recommended.

27/08/2026: Had a wonderful meal in Daniel’s restaurant, he meets and greets you and goes through the menu and suggests what to have to accompany your meal, I ordered the half lobster it was beautiful and my companion had the rack of lamb which fell off the bone. All his sauces are made from scratch and you can see he puts so much passion pride into his restaurant. The dessert menu was even better and we couldn’t decide what to have but decided on the deep fried ice cream with butter scotch sauce and it was absolutely delicious. This restaurant doesn’t need the fancy lights, decor or fancy foams the food says it all.

29/09/2026: I came here as a solo traveller, by chance, in the rain. Totally worth it, one of the best meals I've ever eaten. How do they make cabbage do that? Thank you for the wine recommend too 👌

26/09/2026: My wife and I enjoyed an amazing lunch sitting in one of tables looking out of the restaurant windows. We had the bread service, oysters, soup, duck mousse, and the short ribs. All dishes were exceptional. What was even more exceptional was our waiter John who made us feel incredibly welcomed and well taken care of. Highly recommend!

26/09/2026: Food great, fish taco 10/10 John was charming!!! Love from James ❣️

26/09/2026: The ribye tacos where out of this world! We have been coming here for years and Masa never disappointed. Next to the ribye tacos the fish tacos are a household name, next to the spacy Marg of course! We shall be back, again and again.

03/09/2026: A very nice little restaurant. Friendly service and very good food. The many good reviews are absolutely justified.

28/08/2026: Fantastic dinner, from start to finish.

09/10/2026: breakfast lunch and dinner are phenomenal here at the house. There's always a buzzing mix of locals and a few tourists scattered in. a well curated wine list and craft beers. Check out the back patio on sunny days. Highly recommend!

12/09/2026: Having been to this restaurant where we enjoyed their delicious dishes and friendly service is a beautiful memory for all of my family.

22/09/2026: So friendly and accommodating, a fabulous spot to go to whether you’re looking for a matcha, Acai or a hearty breakfast!

19/09/2026: The food is amazing!!! Can really recommend it! I ate the protein pancakes and they were excellent! But servers (not all of them) might wanna consider acknowledging/speaking to all guests, not only men. Otherwise well, no tip.

05/10/2026: Eaten here everyday since I’ve been in Dublin. Not only is it convenient to my hotel but it is actually good.

30/09/2026: Fantastic place! Food, service and atmosphere just amazing! Dermi, our server, was very friendly, attentive and was able to suggest us a right dish Keep in mind there is BYOB offer - just 8 euro per bottle of wine or champagne!

27/09/2026: Did this course yesterday. Very informative and helpful. Never realised there are so many steps to making a good coffee! Bartira has a great way of showing the practicalities involved. Small class and every step explained. After a hesitant start I gained confidence in my abilities. Would highly recommend 👌

26/09/2026: The barista course with Bartira was great!! It was full and rewarding considering we were all beginners. We all had time to try everything Bartira was teaching us and we could ask all the questions we had. And we could of course taste our own coffees. I’d recommend the course 100%! Thanks Again Bartira -Maïssa

06/10/2026: Be aware! The manager is so aggressiv. he cheats with your money, and adds unnecessary money without your consent. when me and my friends confronted them, he was NOT SERVICEMINDED! He charged us 90 euro! For OPTIONAL TIP. we said we dont want to pay, and he got mad and had aggressive behavior. He said we were not getting our money back. Overall I’ll not recommend! really bad service! don’t go only if u wanna be charged for money that you dident get to choose. We are from Denmark so 90 euros is almost 700kr danish money. which is ALOT! BAD SERVICE, and aggressive behavior!

06/10/2026: Wonderful spot for a lovely lunch. My husband and I enjoyed a lovely lunch at Zizzi for our last day in Dublin. The food was amazing and the gluten free items were amazing!
