The best restaurants in Dublin

04/04/2025: Great place to go for food and drinks. Always a good atmosphere and staff are great.

20/04/2026: We had a lovely dinner in Roly's on the early bird out on the terrace. We were so well looked after and the food was delish. Great value and would definitely return.

18/04/2026: If you are looking for a place welcoming with good service and good food for several occasions go to Roly's. I went there to meet a friend, originally for a coffee and then in the end we decided to go for some pints and sides. They have different rooms and can accommodate you for coffees, teas, lunch, dinner... You name it. Loved going in there. Highly recommended.

21/09/2025: Unfortunately, the broth wasn't tasty, but I recommend the pork chop.

13/09/2025: I recently had the pleasure of stopping by Smaczne To Go, and I must say it turned out to be a very pleasant discovery. From the moment I walked in, I noticed how neat and orderly the place felt — clean tables, tidy counters, and an inviting display of food that immediately caught my attention. There is something comforting about seeing a spot take pride in its appearance, and Smaczne To Go gives exactly that impression. What truly stands out, though, is the food itself. Everything I tried tasted incredibly fresh, as if it had just come out of a home kitchen. There’s a clear emphasis on quality ingredients, and you can taste it in every bite. The menu lets you enjoy a little piece of Polish cuisine, from hearty flavors to lighter options, all prepared with care. It’s rare to find takeaway food that manages to keep a homemade character, but here they pull it off beautifully. Service-wise, the ladies behind the counter don’t go out of their way to be overly warm or chatty, yet they remain polite, efficient, and professional. They greet you, take your order, and make sure everything is correct without unnecessary fuss. While some people might prefer a bigger smile or extra friendliness, I appreciated that they focus on getting things done smoothly — and in a busy takeaway, that’s often what counts most. Another big plus is how reasonable the prices are. You really feel like you’re getting good value for money considering the freshness and quality of the food. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch, taking something home after work, or just want to enjoy a taste of authentic Polish flavors, it’s an excellent option that won’t put a strain on your budget. Overall, Smaczne To Go is a clean, dependable place with consistently tasty dishes, fair prices, and service that, while not overly warm, is always respectful and decent. If you’re nearby and looking for a satisfying meal that feels both simple and carefully made, this little spot is well worth a visit.

19/03/2026: It's nandos, you know what yonexpect

15/03/2026: Overall good experience, friendly staffs and always good food.

01/04/2026: Nice atmosphere and good service

31/03/2026: The cocktails were delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the prices were good. We had a great time and will definitely come back

22/04/2026: I would say that it's not a Persian restaurant from the combinations of foods and spices. It is just a restaurant with some offers of Middle Eastern food/grills. Perhaps, it is imitation of Turkish plus Afghan. I was little disappointed when I requested the reception lady to not put salt on the fries. Unfortunately, they didn't listen and sprinkled salt on the chips and I realised after I picked my food order. I think customers should be listened esp. if something they avoid due to health reasons.

21/04/2026: One of the best affordable food in Ireland.

17/03/2026: Decent prices, great location, good food.

16/02/2026: Enjoyed a 3 course dinner for Valentine's day. Excellent food and romantic atmosphere accompanied by a very suave live harp music.

10/04/2026: Playing Poole there was nice with the family!

05/04/2026: We arrived early at the venue, around 7:00 PM. There were no pool tables available—everything was occupied. That was fine, so we waited like everyone else. When we got there, we noticed three tables with “Reserved” signs, so we asked the staff. They told us one of the tables had a reservation and would be free at 8:45 PM. We then went to the counter to ask if we could reserve it for after that time, and they said yes—just wait until the time, then get a cue and pay. So we waited from 7:00 PM. When it was finally time to pay, we were told that other people had already taken the table. We complained to the staff, and one of them said that’s just how it works—whoever arrives and pays first gets the table. But earlier, another staff member had told us that once the reserved group finished, whoever got the cue and paid would play. We even asked if we could pay in advance as a “pre-reservation,” but they said no, only after the current group finished. Naturally, we were upset—we waited over an hour just for someone else to come in and pay for something we were told we couldn’t do. We called the manager. The great “THEO, JUST THEO”—that’s literally how he introduced himself when I asked for his name. He wasn’t even wearing a name tag or any identification, and he was casually drinking his coffee as if he were at home. He completely ignored our situation and showed no professionalism or leadership. Totally unprepared. After we complained, he simply gave us a thumbs-up 👍🏽 and walked off. This is the manager—who probably trained (or didn’t train) the staff, who were clearly confused. One said reservations weren’t possible, another said they were. The manager said reservations don’t exist, yet there were three tables marked as reserved. A complete mess. And just to add, we wanted to order a large portion of wings, and the staff couldn’t even tell us how many wings come in a portion. I work in a hotel, and all the waiters know this kind of basic information. But my main issue here is the manager’s attitude. This is someone who should be trained to deal with customers properly—completely unprepared. I’m writing this in English so that if there is a real manager reviewing these reviews and passing them on to the staff, they might at least consider hiring someone competent who knows how to solve problems. The place itself is good, but the staff and management are terrible.

20/09/2025: On Sunday morning/afternoon only one barman serving alot of people and Chang kegs. Too much for one barman another one needed

26/08/2025: Changed the menu, increased the prices. Once a great place to get normal sandwiches, not anymore sad...i had been loyal customer because of their blt's (bacon lettuce tomatoes not bell peppers and onions at leats i would have liked to be told it changed so I could ask without...)

19/05/2025: I’ve visited this café a couple of times. The atmosphere is generally nice and quiet, but unfortunately, one of the staff members (the male employee) comes across as quite unfriendly and lacking in warmth. A more welcoming and approachable attitude would really improve the customer experience. Small details like this can make a big difference. I hope this feedback is taken into consideration and leads to better service in the future. I don’t know if he’s sleepy since it’s a morning or maybe he has some problems with work… please do something about that
