The best restaurants in Dublin

22/11/2024: Great food, fast and friendly servic.

21/11/2024: A wee gem in a crazy world . Beautiful coffee , pancakes & nova on the radio. Perfect in a winters morning

11/12/2024: I will start off with my food. I ordered an 'Irish Wagyu Steak'. I had high expectations due to the high rating overall. However for the price compared to what was received I was underwhelmed. The steak on arrival looked amazing but after a few bites a sour taste appeared, I thought it was the sear but I later learned it was not. The server was nice and provided us with information about the courses on offer and the soup of the day. The food itself was not seasoned much and the mashed potato side had very little flavour, everything had to be mixed or dipped with the average red wine jus to finish. My wife's steak was very thin and she had many complaints about it and she was unable to finish. Later into the night I felt quite ill and had many issue. I contacted the restaurant but I did not get any reply.

08/12/2024: I don’t even know where to begin with this review. We ate here on our last night in Dublin and it was wonderful. From the moment we walked in, the service was incredible and everyone was lovely. The steaks and the rest of the food were great. After dinner, the staff talked to us and got to know us a little. Was truly a wonderful evening and I can’t speak highly enough of all of the staff. We cannot wait to go back on our next trip to Ireland!

05/12/2024: Got a crepe on a cold winter evening server was friendly, received it after a short time period and the food was divine

04/12/2024: My go-to place for desserts! love their salted caramel cheesecake ice cream! You can really taste every single ingredient.

27/11/2024: Great place for brunch, services is great and food is tasty! Highly recommended.

26/11/2024: Probably the best breakfast spot in Dublin. The vegetarian breakfast was delicious.

27/11/2024: Fabulous service, great surroundings. Food was amazing, just came out a little cold for us. We would recommend and return again!

26/11/2024: Went for Sunday lunch and got the roast pork belly. My plate was stacked - the pork skin had to be cut off and enjoyed separately it was so good and everything else was delicious, but the roast potatoes could use a little work. Perfect way to get you through a Sunday with great atmosphere, lovely staff, and a good drinks selection. Definitely book as it gets busy.

19/11/2024: Best pub in Dun Laoghaire by far!

16/11/2024: Great place to catch Rugby games. Excellent Guinness. And staff are tremendous. I almost feel like giving a poor review just so it does get too popular.

16/12/2024: Great food at amazing value. Would highly recommend

15/12/2024: We booked a table for lunch and felt very rushed by staff. There was an option for a three course set menu which we wanted to opt for but we were told by staff we wouldn’t have enough time as we had to give the table back in 75 mins. Why include it as an option on the menu if it was not a viable option? I understand the business wants to turn over as many tables as possible but it is definitely at the expense of customer experience. I love the food here but the service we received would make me question returning.

07/12/2024: We had the most amazing pakistani food experience ever in Ireland. Each and every thing had a different and unique flavour. Food quality is superb 👌. Can't believe how I missed this place for so long. Highly highly recommended 👌 👍 👏 🙌 😀. Their food made my day ❤️. The manager and all other staff are very friendly and welcoming.

03/12/2024: I went to Taza last week and it has been probably my best dining experience in Ireland so far. The staff are very kind and welcoming and are always willing to explain the different foods and help. The price of the food is very good for the portion size and the food as a whole was amazing I couldn't stop trying the different dishes they offer. There is so much variety and flavor in each dish as well. They also offer so many spicy dishes and mild dishes. Each one is very customizable for your spice tolerance which was very pleasant to see. I recommend this place highly and will be going back.

20/11/2024: Great coffee and muffins Great food market on Friday & saturday Especially pasteries And fruit & vegetables

19/11/2024: Brid and Alan were AMAZING! The service was so friendly and professional. Brid was such a warm and knowledgeable server, she went above and beyond for us. Alan was so friendly and brought us into the small bar area with the fire - the exact thing we needed on a cold winters night! The whiskey sours were unbelievable and the Caesar salad was the best thing I have ever eaten!! The food was to die for. We have been to a couple FX Buckleys and this is by far the best in terms of staff, food, restaurant lay out. Everything was just so perfect! Thanks guys - we will be back :)

12/12/2024: The best in Dublin bakery for me! Their breads are simple, honest and demure. I tried a pain au suisse and an olive focaccia before. And I took a pistachio NYR and a rye sourdough. All of them are very proper and good. I prefer not too much bread and this place exactly meets it. Staffs are so nice whereas there was a long queue.

01/12/2024: Kind people, good cappuccino with oat milk and mavellous pistacchio roll!!!

19/10/2024: Amazing restaurant. Delicious food, warm friendly service. Cannot wait to go back

28/09/2024: Dinner was a real treat. Food was excellent- we had a few small plates - loved the prawn hash especially, one large plate as well. Fab cheesecake for dessert, excellent wine. Exceptionally lovely staff. If you have been thinking about going here - do get here soon. We had been meaning to for a couple of years - delighted we did now - will definitely come again. Thank you Craft

17/12/2024: Great Pizza and Pasta. Veg Lasagne, Risotto of the day and Aranchini Balls were okayish. Dessert was not good at all.

14/12/2024: It was the worst experience I ever had in a restaurant!! I made a booking at the place for 4 people, and was shocked with the disorganization and the treatment of some of the staff. The experience was bad from the start. There was no sign whatsoever to where people should wait to be seated and because of the shape of the restaurant we were waiting literally on the middle of the way. When the manager came to talk to us, several minutes after the time of the actual booking, instead of helping and guiding us, he was very rude and unprofessional. In his words “you have to wait to get your table, you are on the middle of the way”, and when I asked where we should wait because there was no indication or space, he simply turned his back and left. When we finally got our table, the restaurant only had one option of menu (a 3 course meal), my friends that don’t eat much did not want the 3 course so they decided to share, what was immediately denied by the manager, as every person would have to buy their own 3 course meal. We then asked if they could order only one dish each instead of sharing, which was also immediately denied, which made everybody uncomfortable and we decided to leave. A table of 4 people that was excited to try the food, and would leave at least 120€ at the restaurant (based on the 3 course menu price), left to eat somewhere else because of the treatment since entering the front door. The only person that actually treated us well was the waitress that came to take our order. Definitely will never be coming back

08/12/2024: Gorgeous dinner at this restaurant for our girls Christmas outing. The service was 10/10. There was a lovely buzzy atmosphere and the food was perfect.

07/12/2024: Myself and my colleagues came here for our works Christmas party. So here is my honest review: Food - the food was fresh, good quality and worth the wait. I ordered the 10oz ribeye and chips which was cooked medium. The meat was tender and juicy, the perfect steak. I then had desert which was 3 flavours of ice cream. It was standard but the salted caramel ice cream was amazing. Service - the service was amazing. The staff were all extremely attentive and always made sure we were taken care off. One staff member who looked after our party was very friendly and was always there to make sure we were catered for. Atmosphere- it was a small venue and with all the decorations up for Christmas, with the background music, it gave you a cosy feeling and very welcoming vibe. Overall - the night was a great success and was enjoyed by all. Highly recommend trying this venue

10/12/2024: Magic coffee spot! Lovely food too.

23/11/2024: Lovely pizza and wine, pet friendly too 😀

07/12/2024: We stumbled upon it by chance for lunch. Super cozy place with brunch menu. We had the eggs benedict with salmon. Right quantity and great price. An Italian girl works there who was very welcoming and kind.

07/12/2024: My most favourite restaurant visit during our time in Dublin. Great service, food and atmosphere.
