The best restaurants in Dublin

20/03/2026: Dropped in for a drink in a Friday afternoon, very friendly, great service. Dog friendly in the bar when we visited! Food menu looks nice also.

18/03/2026: Following a 15 minute wait for a waiter or waitress to even look at us, the waitress serving us made us feel incredibly uncomfortable. She was aggressive and rude when we pointed out a mistake she had made with our order, insisting we were wrong. When she finally checked with the bar, she then confirmed it was indeed her mistake, after making a scene in front of other diners. An expensive lunch which was ruined, avoid!

19/09/2025: Really good black pudding sandwich. Great service & surprisingly quiet given its location.

05/08/2025: Really delicious sandwiches as well as the desserts…. Very nice! We recommend!

17/04/2026: Joshua was the most fabulous host. What a wonderful experience. SO Attentive and Professional! Give this man a promotion!

12/04/2026: Really lovely place. I just took my daughter here for a quick lunch having never been before. It was fabulous. Excellent pizza - so fresh, and piping hot. For those of us in the area who might’ve missed a local Italian I can highly recommend it if you haven’t tried it before. The staff by the way were just so friendly and available. We’ll be back.

03/11/2025: Very good service and great food quality! Recommend 🫶

29/10/2025: Really great variety of food, great soups and great coffee also. This is a very nice atmosphere here and Staff are very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

23/04/2026: Had so much fun and three hours of continuous laughter. Power packed performances at the stand up comedy show. Lots of love and whole lot of good wishes. Thanks!

06/04/2026: Very good pub, pretty good value for the prices in the area. I don't understand how it's empty; we've been two days and it's empty, and it's right next to Temple Bar. Update to the owner's response: Well, I was there today around 2 pm and the day before yesterday at about the same time. The other day 45 people came in, and today too, but it seems strange to me because the place is very nice, I like it a lot, the service is excellent, everything is perfect. But it's true that if you go down a little further, it's packed, and I don't understand how people can be crammed into one place and this place is practically empty. Maybe it just happened to coincide with my visit, but it really does seem strange to me. 4 people, not 45, sorry. I understand it must be the time of day.

05/04/2026: Amazing food, we will definitely come back

28/03/2026: I recently visited and had a great experience. The menu offers a really nice North Indian dishes, with plenty of variety. Everything I tried was full of flavour, especially the curries and naan breads. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed. Definitely a place I'd come back to!

25/04/2026: We ordered the soup, which was excellent—tomato and basil. Afterward, they brought us a BLT on toast, but I was dissatisfied. When I opened the sandwich, I saw that the bacon was pale and undercooked, and the brown spots on the lettuce and tomato completely ruined my appetite. When the waiter asked if everything was okay, I replied that the soup was good, but I didn't like the BLT at all for a number of reasons. The waiter didn't comment or apologize, and handed over the card machine for the full bill. The bill also included a tip, which I wouldn't have left if I had chosen. I'm sure of all the possible places to dine in Dublin, we would never choose this one.

15/04/2026: Everything was perfect, the steak was delicious. We had a very simple anniversary dinner, yet it was made special with very little. Great location, and fast, friendly service. Great experience, thank you so much 😄

24/04/2026: Really disappointed with how I was treated tonight as a Deliveroo rider. I went in to collect an order and was told by a staff member to use the “back door.” There was no clear direction, and I ended up walking around for about 10 minutes trying to find it. When I finally did, I had to go past the toilets and storage area—only to end up in the exact same place I had been before. It felt unnecessary and honestly quite disrespectful. Riders are just doing their job, the same as everyone else in the restaurant. For a well-known brand, I expected much better—especially something as simple as clear signage or basic courtesy. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and improves the experience for delivery drivers in the future.

21/04/2026: The ordering system is great. Spot on! Staff is friendly. Food is good!

18/03/2026: Fast food, absolutely fine. I've been twice, once right at opening and then in the evening. I found the place full in the evening, but I still didn't wait long to order for three people. It's a bit hidden, you come to the bar and have to go down the stairs to order. A bit of a maze, but otherwise fine.

05/03/2026: Delicious and quickly prepared burgers in the center of Dublin. The price is a bit high, but they taste great! You have to go into a pub and down some stairs to reach the burger joint.

27/03/2026: This is the best chipper ever. The food is fantastic, always fresh, nice and hot. Great choice on the menu, and my daughter loves their milkshakes. The guys are fantastic, all us regular customers enjoy great chats with them, their full of energy and amazingly remember your order. Give them a try, you will see what I mean. If your coming home on the bus after a few pints, they will be waiting to finish your night off in great fashion.

04/03/2026: He came running out the shop screaming at us to come back after I ate my food the food was nice to be fair but then he start saying that we didn’t pay full price and he made a mistake when I clearly paid full price for my food as the tills have presets and even if I didn’t it still wouldn’t be my fault as it was their mistake

18/12/2025: Were there on a Sunday night. Guy behind the bar was very pushy for us to order two wing deals when we only wanted one to start with. We overheard him instruct the kitchen staff to make our buffalo wing portion extra, extra spicy, and that we had asked for that - we hadn't - and called us names to the kitchen staff that I won't repeat here. He clearly didn't realise we could hear him, he did seem a bit drunk. I regularly eat very hot sauces with Carolina Reaper or ghost chilli, but the portion we got was extremely hot and borderline inedible. Not blaming the kitchen staff at all, they seemed like they didn't want to make the dish so spicy, but the bar man pushed them to do it. When we asked him if he had ordered them extra hot for us he made up some BS story about other customers complaining that they used to be too mild, and that's why they are now hotter, etc. Very disrespectful and hostile way to treat your customers. None of us will ever be back.

30/11/2025: Lovely vibe! Not much of loud music soo if you want to get together with friends and have conversations over a pint, definitely the place!

05/09/2025: Amazing pizza and amazing staff! Specially Shivangini

20/08/2025: Disgusting pizza due to the fact that the dough wasn't stretched properly - way too thick as a result and felt dreadful afterwards

13/04/2026: From now on, this is my favorite place! I love the atmosphere, the service is very good, but the food is excellent!!! I want to come back and try more things!

12/04/2026: Very good ramen and generous portions, I recommend it!! Prices are not too high considering the area.

05/04/2026: Fast delivery, Food used to be really tasty. but the last couple of times it hasn’t been great, you can tell the food is fresh but there’s no flavour to it, the likes of the curry sauce, spice bags, 3 and 4 in 1’s have little to no flavour. Food needs some work. Would be sad to see this place go down hill over very fixable issues.

05/12/2025: Always consistently good food staff very friendly 1 of the few takeaways where you can eat in also 10/10 best Chinese food in finglas

22/10/2025: Bought cake from here and the quality was excellent. It was very tasty and fresh. They were so quick to get it ready as well.

06/10/2025: 5 stars. We ordered an ube cake for my son’s first birthday on very short notice, and they absolutely delivered! The cake was soft, moist, and so delicious everyone loved it. Thank you for making his special day even sweeter!
