The best restaurants in Dublin

04/09/2026: You want pints and incredible food in a chill place? This is it. Kimchi fried rice is incredible here. Been coming here for 8 years and I have 0 complaints.

16/06/2026: This place was recommended to us and was amazing! We got the chicken teriyaki and the deep fried chicken wings. So flavorful and generous portions; some of the best Korean food we've tried. The service was also great. Would definitely recommend trying this place!!

30/08/2026: Food is delicious and really nice wine you can also beri g your own bottle if you want which two ladies did the day we visited lovely place

27/08/2026: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 9/10 We had such a wonderful experience at Momento! The service was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Everyone was so attentive and welcoming, and a special mention to Milena, who was such a sweetheart and incredibly attentive. She really made our experience even more special! ❤️ The starters were perfect, and the atmosphere is absolutely beautiful — such a lovely place for a date night. ✨ The desserts were incredible! We tried the brownie and the lemon cheesecake, and both were delicious. 🤤 Our main courses were also really, really tasty. The only small thing I would mention is that the steak could have been just a little more tender, but the flavours were fantastic. Overall, a fantastic restaurant with amazing food, a beautiful atmosphere and outstanding service. We had a lovely evening and would definitely come back! ❤️ Thank you, Momento, for such a lovely experience! 🥂✨

09/09/2026: Great place for an event prior to students returning. Catering is superb.

27/08/2026: Good courses for experienced professional as well as freshers.

21/08/2026: We had our wedding celebration couple of weeks ago at the Grand Canal Hotel and have to say it was perfect. From day 1 organising everything remotely with Gillian, up to the big day, everything was flawless, the rooms, the staff, the decoration, the food. We had arrived 30 mins early to the welcoming drinks and the staff rallied to have everything in place and the food brought earlier to accommodate our guests. Joao was in charge that day of coordinating everything and we're extremely thankful. The wedding dinner was perfect, the table decoration, the timing of the service, simply everything. All our guests left with a smile and a full stomach and that made us very very happy. Hence, if you are thinking on a perfect location to celebrate any event, in our case our marriage, we highly recommend the Grand Canal Hotel, if we could, we would do it all over again.

29/08/2026: The decor isn't anything special, but overall it's cozy, the service is very nice, and the food is also good.

07/08/2026: Food was really well priced and DELICIOUS, The lady’s who work there are super nice and friendly I will be returning

30/07/2026: Although I have money to pay for my stuff, they followed me around every time I went there. Poor customer service. Today was the last straw. And they didn't even try to hide and the lady was standing there and checking me out. They profile people...

25/07/2026: When I'm in the city centre i usually shop here for the goodies I use periodically. Well laid out store and clean.

06/07/2026: Excellent pizza. They knead it fresh for you. Very friendly service. Good prices.

06/07/2026: We buy a pepperoni pizza, and, as an italian, is very gooood! We wait less than 5 minutes for the pizza, the atmosphere is excellent, good music good tables. Consigliata a tutti, davvero un ottimo lavoro, bravi!

08/09/2026: Really good coffee and such a nice vibe! The staff are lovely too. They have toasties and a few bakery treats at the counter. Just a heads-up, the toasties and other food finish around 3 PM, but you can still grab things like carrot cake from the counter afterwards. Definitely a nice spot for a coffee after a walk around.

03/08/2026: Excellent coffee with wonderful sandwiches! The staff are very friendly! I loved the experience and highly recommend it.

01/10/2026: They claim to give 15% extra off on student card but refused despite showing the valid card. This is how they treat their regular customers. Don’t claim to give discount when you just want to refuse later. Never coming back again.

23/09/2026: Not the one to leave reviews, but this one left me with no choice. My wife wanted to eat dosa, so we drove 40mins to get there. When we were served food, Sambhar and the dosa was cold. Basically it was probably plated out for somebody and then served to us a good while later to us. I informed the waiter that the food is cold. He just brought a bowl of warm sambhar from kitchen. He knew what was happening as he kept apologizing to me. But surely that was my last time i had food there.

19/08/2026: Got two aromatic half ducks and a can of Sprite. It supposed to cost approximately 28-29 euros but I was charged 45.55. Just noticed it a day later. Gona call them or call in into the shop to resolve the issue. Payment was made at 23:23 on 17 August.

05/07/2026: The chicken wrapo was lovely and so was the spicy wings the sweet sour chicken was okay

05/09/2026: Beautiful, unique and so pleasant. Great prices and livly atmosphere!

30/08/2026: Superb tapas and wine for 4 - veggie options were equally as delicious as meat/fish. Lovely staff. We ordered slightly too much but scoffed it all!

29/09/2026: The food is burnt (seared several times in oil). I also don't think there's much variety... most of it is chicken in different sauces. If you're a student you pay less, but they force you to buy a drink, so you end up paying the same as the regular price (it doesn't come with a drink, yes, but we wanted water, which is free...).

25/09/2026: Great selection of around 40 dishes plus desserts. Very friendly staff and you can eat as much as you like after paying the entrance fee. My favourite was the chocolate fountain and fresh fruit! 🍫🍓 The only downside is that it’s quite dark inside. Overall, highly recommended! ❤️

01/09/2026: Last Tuesday around 3:00 PM, a female staff member—who appeared to be Brazilian—exhibited severe racial discrimination against Asians. She could not distinguish between Chinese and Taiwanese people, which was already bad enough, but she then loudly mocked and criticized the English grammar my classmate and I were using. We came here and paid money to learn English, and we even brought a large group of students to your establishment to spend money. Despite this, she went so far as to kick us out and told us that we had better go somewhere else next time. We were not yelling or making noise. It was purely an act of racial discrimination; she explicitly told my classmate that she simply dislikes Chinese people. If you continue to hire staff like this, are you not worried about ruining your business? I will be filing a formal complaint with your general manager regarding this employee's unacceptable behavior.

25/08/2026: Killed some time here waiting for the National Gallery to open just around the corner. Good coffee, decent bakes, and a location that makes it an easy add-on before or after Kildare Street or the Gallery. Got a window table looking out over South Leinster Street and it was the best seat in the house, sun comes in and a nice bit of people watching while the coffee kicked in. Staff were genuinely warm too.. actually chatty and happy to have you there. Nothing revolutionary on the menu, fresh coffee, sandwiches and cakes, but the welcome lift it above the usual chain experience. Handy spot if you're museum hopping around this part of Dublin and want a proper sit rather than a rushed takeaway.

28/09/2026: Got ignored on the patio so went inside after a wait and learned the taps weren’t working. Maybe try again someday.

25/09/2026: I had lunch outside the Queens in Dalkey on Sunday 20th with 3 friends! While sitting in the sun in the front courtyard was lovely sadly the food & service didn't match the atmosphere! Two of our main courses arrived without the other 2 meals which meant I was almost finished mine before the other plates arrived! I had the roast pork special which was very average to say the least, very thin slivers of pork which were far too salty for my taste & according to my fellow diners my meal was the best out of the four as we all had something different! I have been to their sister restaurant the Eagle in Glasthule many times and the food is always superb along with the service! Could do a lot better Queens of Dalkey!!
