The best restaurants in Dublin

15/05/2026: Obviously slightly more pricy than other Indian takeaways considering its a restaurant, but by far the best Indian I've ever had. Would recommend anything with lamb.

19/04/2026: very good food wine & service. small premises could do with modernization and bigger toilets, but the food and service are so good.

04/07/2026: This is a review of 2 separate visits, 6 years apart. In 2020, Alfie's served creme brulee. It is still the absolute best I ever had. It somehow had like a 1 inch sugar crust but the rest of the custard was still creamy and smooth and cool. As for the rest, food is above average, drinks are good and well priced, and the vibe is very chill. Even 6 years apart, aside from no more creme brulee, Alfie's is still a hit with my wife and myself.

01/07/2026: We came to dinner the fajitas were good, but the waiters could be more attentive. We had to ask for napkins two or three times.

21/11/2025: Good coffee and delicious cake.

12/10/2025: 👋, I came back with my little son from Temple Street hospital and I left autside my son and my wife ,the shop was full ,I wait for 5 min and I order a pie with means, they ask me to warm it ,the time was 10 20 am ,supposed to be warm, I pay 5.50 e I gotit and I notice that was from previous day ,i through to the birds .not again in this Shop.

02/07/2026: A real gem on the North side of Dublin.Prices are average, staff are great , toilet are spotless , smoking area at back of pub. No Giant screens so you can catch up with friends. The product is excellent. 👍

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

27/05/2026: Deli was disgusting and girls didn’t know what they were doing. Won’t be back

13/05/2026: I love chapters. It’s the best shop, has everything I need!

14/06/2026: Gorgeous food, service was 10/10 (Think our main person was called Dee - absolute sweetheart....So helpful & chatty & very cool eye make up)......Drinks were lovely. I ordered the goat salad with chicken & totally cleared my plate. Also for the table, chicken wings & Nachos. Zero complaints. We got lucky with no concert on. Super chilled & we sat outside. Was exactly as we'd hoped. Very polite staff. Great atmosphere.

05/06/2026: Service was non-existent. Food was very poor. The chips were rubbish, tasted like cheap frozen chips. The striploin steak was inedible, mostly gristle. We reported it and nothing was done about it, not even an apology. Some of the staff were even quite rude. The portions were small. The restaurant itself was dirty and noisy. Rubys used to be a good spot so not sure what has changed. I won't go back.

20/10/2025: Had the best chicken wings in town. The shrimp pasta wasn’t anything special, but it was okay

13/10/2025: The wings here are honestly some of the best I’ve ever had

19/04/2026: The best coffee I’ve tried in Ireland. Alison served me very well. All the staff who were there on Sunday at 3:30 in the afternoon were excellent

05/02/2026: Butlers Chocolate Café in there production plant is brilliant. Tasty food options, delicious chocolates and deserts and beautiful coffee.

23/04/2025: A temporal experiment where minutes become currency in this pay-per-minute social space. Board game selection ranges from Neolithic to post-digital. The tea station's perpetual simmer creates a comforting temporal anchor in this chronologically fluid environment.

13/04/2025: Was looking forward to trying it but cancelled our booking last minute!

26/05/2026: I met a friend here for lunch, found the food of a high quality for a very fair price

04/03/2026: Lovely little cafe, v nice coffee

19/10/2025: Insomnia Blanch is my favourite place to get a takeaway cappuccino

30/09/2025: Lovely location on j6,plenty of space ...a hide away place from everything at times..!

19/11/2025: Good coffee, people and ambience. Food could be better.

15/10/2025: A wonderful neighbourhood cafe with great coffee and the nicest staff.

16/07/2026: Love this place sooo much. The vibe, the taste, the staff, the music, and the colors. Got a sparagus and cheese pack and it was yummy. Made my day! Even for a quick pause, try this place!

15/07/2026: very kind staff and tasty sandwiches xx

15/12/2025: We had a breakfast here for two days (Saturday and Sunday). Both days we really enjoyed the view. What surprised me is that both days I ordered the same, but I liked the sandwich as well as the hot chocolate more the first day. The second day I was a bit disappointed, it wasn’t the same. Even though, really nice staff and a lovely place to enjoy your meal. Santa sandwich for 9€ and hot chocolate for 4€.

10/12/2025: It's delicious, I was there for breakfast, there were not many visitors, but it's very atmospheric and cozy.

16/06/2026: Booked a takeaway at 5.15pm yesterday 15th June but 7pm it hadn't arrived. Called Mao & spoke with the manager. He was so rude and continued to tell me to call deliverroo as it wasn't his problem ! Deliveroo customer services close at 6.30pm so no joy there. Called the manager back & asked for a refund. He said no refunds, he continued being rude and so unprofessional. I will never order from Mao again as I got no food, no refund & sent 3 hours of my evening trying to sort it out ! The food is definitely not worth the hassle! Will go to Camille in future !

09/06/2026: Amazing food. Not sure when they reopened but the food we ordered for takeaway recently was delicious. Loads of flavour & a variety of veg in each dish.
