The best restaurants in Dublin

24/04/2026: Lovely spot, lovely coffee. Covered area for poor weather with sun trap beside it.

07/07/2026: Accidentally reviewed the Santry one but I go to this one, oops! Best coffee around and 10/10 staff.

30/06/2026: Have been a regular here for years! It's a deadly little spot with really good coffee & bowls. Can't speak highly enough of the staff who are always super friendly & up for a chat.

24/07/2026: Food is lovely and consistent. Would rate 5 stars but unfortunately delivery has been late once or twice

29/06/2026: Hands down the best Chinese in south Dublin, tastes different than all the others, it looks different and even comes in different little boxes which just proves they work on their own initiative, the flavours are unbeatable. The house curry has sliced roasted pork and the young chow rice is the nicest I’ve ever tasted, the shredded chicken contains lots of chicken not just streaks of batter. Highly recommend! ✨

22/03/2026: Its an amazing bar with an amazing bartender roster, i really love all of them and i am really proud of all of them, everything is top quality and Dublin will never understand how valuable this bar is. Manager Joao is king, I wish all the pubs in dublin were like this

17/01/2026: It’s a nice environment to be in but a double Jameson and Coke was €17.80. Got to admit no warning of that was a bit of a sting Everyone one else enjoyed it though with just beers

05/07/2026: Lots of nice and special moments I'm sharing with the Maldron Hotel in Tallaght. Breakfast was one of the best parts of our stay, mostly because of the amazing staff. Everyone was super nice and on top of things, but one person really stood out - Kasia. She was so friendly, always smiling, and really made sure we had everything we needed. You don’t come across that kind of genuine hospitality very often — Kasia, Wojtek and the morning team really made our mornings better. 🥰 The hotel is lucky to have them!

22/06/2026: Loved our room 307. Stayed two nights for my daughters dance e competition in Tallaght. Great parking great food. Just a couple of negative points: No slip mat in bath No fresh towels next day No fresh water next day But no fresh bedding though the bed was made & towels were folded when we got back to room but they still had dirty marks on them from day before. Other than that we enjoyed our stay

17/05/2026: Myself & my partner visited this cafe on Saturday 16th May, based on our previous experience some weeks ago, when we got a delicious lunch of smoked salmon & cream. cheese with a cup of soup, which was special of the day. Our 2nd visit was far from even satisfactory. The special, which my partner opted for, was described as a goats cheese salad with pomegranate & oranges & nuts. There was little or no goats cheese, one small piece of orange, no nuts and the plate was mostly filled with rocket, priced at €14, very bad value. The waitress had an extremely poor attitude when I complained about it and was totally indifferent to my complaint. I asked for the owner and was told she was away until the following week. Would not be returning to this cafe. Before I left I heard the same waitress tell a couple at 4.05 pm that they were closing in 5 minutes when it states online that closing time is 5.00 pm. This waitress badly needs a lesson in good customer service. When presented with the Bill, there was no offer to reduce it to account for the complaint.

15/05/2026: Had small breakfast. Really tasty and cooked well. Staff lovely. Was busy but got a great table at the window for four of us. No complaints from any of us.

13/07/2026: I visited the Nando's in Dún Laoghaire yesterday and asked about safe food options for someone with a specific dietary intolerance. The person who handled my inquiry—who I believe was the manager, as he explicitly stated he didn't want anyone dying on "his shift" and seemed to be the person in charge—gave me a shocking response. He told me that if anyone has any type of allergy or intolerance, they shouldn't eat at his restaurant because he "doesn't want anyone dying on his shift." Having a food intolerance or a medical condition is not a choice. People with dietary restrictions already face enough challenges trying to enjoy a meal out with friends without being treated like a dangerous liability. There is a massive difference between professionally explaining cross-contamination policies and being downright rude, hostile, and insensitive. If a restaurant cannot safely accommodate a dietary restriction, that information should at least be delivered with basic human respect, rather than making a customer feel unwelcome and humiliated. Shocking lack of empathy from someone running the floor.

28/06/2026: I had amazing service from waiters who even went and extra mile to take us pictures. The order was fast despite we ordered different menus because we were a group

21/04/2026: Shredded chicken doesn't have the proper spices - just a lot of salt

15/04/2026: The Nasi Goreng is really good. Didnt expect much the first time I ordered ( because of the reputation of far east) but has been my comfort food now for a while. The crispy shredded chicken and beef are the other highlights. Great service as well.

25/05/2026: Borza has always been my go to takeaway , the pizzas are top quality , lovely chips, and some interesting things on the menu you dont see anywhere else (their backyard bowls)

25/05/2026: Always such a friendly family to have chat with, Theresa has wonderful kindness and food is always delicious!

09/07/2026: A real gem on the North side of Dublin.Prices are average, staff are great , toilets are spotless , smoking area at back of pub. No Giant screens so you can catch up with friends. The product is excellent. 👍 Going in when Croke Park is open may not be a good idea, however there is a huge area outside Gaffney's to meet up...

19/06/2026: Lovely pint of Guinness but unfortunately like alot of pubs they are charging to much for a pint thanks to Diageo

11/06/2026: Glaushaus is very handy for Tallaght hospital or the Reeves centre. The rooms are clean with TV and tea making facilities. Ate in the bar and the food was inedible. Service was very poor and despite our 2 dishes uneaten we were not even asked if everything was ok.

01/06/2026: Our room was not cleaned, when we mentioned this they didn't believe us, so they came up to check, of course they apologized afterwards and we got a new room, but still. We had breakfast packed because our plane left early, but we shouldn't have because it was pretty poor (water, yogurt, dry oat bars, dry bread, butter).

23/03/2026: I recently ordered from Pizza Max Dundrum and overall had a decent experience. The pizza was hot, fresh, and quite filling especially good for a late night meal. The delivery was reasonably quick, which is a big plus when you’re hungry late in the evening.

17/03/2026: Great service again food was delicious

03/07/2026: It was 9 euro for a small box of chips and a bottle of water. Diner vibe was cool but it looked grimy. Service was very quick, probably because it had just been nuked in the microwave. It definitely tasted like it, the chips were like something out of a burger van. Mealy and unpleasant, not to mention a complete rip off. I wouldn’t have ate as much of them as I did if I wasn’t so hungry, and even then I binned half of them. An insult to potatoes.

22/06/2026: If you are looking for a proper, nostalgic American diner experience in Dublin, this branch of Eddie Rocket’s at Point Square is an absolute must-visit. The moment you step inside, you are hit with a fantastic, authentic diner vibe—from the retro booths to the classic decor. It feels incredibly genuine, and because it’s located in a quieter mall, you can actually sit back and enjoy the atmosphere without the usual city center chaos. The food here is outstanding and exactly what you’d expect from a real diner. The burgers have that authentic, juicy American flavor profile that completely blows standard fast-food chains like McDonald's or Burger King out of the water. It’s on a completely different level of quality. I tried the bacon burger, and it was cooked to perfection—rich, savory, and highly satisfying. To top it off, their milkshakes are incredibly delicious, thick, and creamy. It’s the perfect companion to a hearty burger. The menu offers a great variety of comfort food, so there’s something for everyone. On top of the great food, the pricing is very reasonable for the quality and portions you get. The staff here are wonderful—friendly, attentive, and quick with the service. Another massive plus that deserves a mention is that the bathrooms are spotlessly clean, which really shows the management's commitment to high hygiene standards. Whether you're grabbing a bite before a movie at the Odeon next door or just craving a proper American meal in peace, this Eddie Rocket’s delivers on all fronts. A solid 5 stars

18/07/2026: I've eaten here frequently and like their food however any delivery has been a total disaster. The first time the order didn't arrive. The second time the order is two hours late and counting. They appear to have their own drivers who are brutally slow. They should just use the apps drivers who can be tracked. If you want to eat here go in person

14/07/2026: Good restaurant with a nice menu with plenty of options. The food was good. The only complain is that was very hot inside of the restaurant (NO AC)

13/06/2026: Had a super fun night there, the live music was spectacular.

09/06/2026: Disgusting! I would recommend tourists and Irish people avoid at all costs! The prices of everything is an absolute disgrace! Over €10 for a pint! We paid for so called virtual darts, it cost €10 per person for 30 minutes. We thought surely it was a deposit so asked …it turns out it is not a deposit! Awful experience really and far better places to go to. Overall over priced Dublin in full swing!
