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.

22/10/2025: I’ve been to all their stores and all of them are doing such a fantastic job Burrito is always my favourite after trying it at Tula !! Special thanks to Sushel & Tony !!

08/10/2025: The restaurant itself is good, but the customer service really needs improvement. One of the staff members — apparently a Mexican guy — tends to speak and say “thank you” by shouting, which is very uncomfortable. This isn’t the first time it has happened, so it seems to be a recurring issue. There’s a clear lack of manners and tact when dealing with customers, because shouting “thank you” isn’t the same as being friendly. It comes across as rude and even a bit arrogant. It would be great if the restaurant could provide better guidance to the staff on how to communicate properly with customers.

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.

22/06/2026: The perfect place for the Metallica Fan zone to be in. Whiplash played, they were excellent. Metallica Karaoke 🎤 I think a new thing has been invented. Great atmosphere 👌

06/07/2026: Fair play to everyone at The Village Inn. The new menu is a massive step up. The food is absolutely gorgeous and looks as good as it tastes. Great pints, lovely atmosphere, and the staff are sound. If you haven't tried the new menu yet, you're missing out. We'll definitely be back. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

18/06/2026: I love it here!!!! Uncontested best diner experience in my life. Burgers were 10/10 every night!! The bartebnders were also so welcoming and hospitable! I need to return here! Big props🫶🫶😍❤️❤️❤️

13/06/2026: Fun idea, having a burger store inside a pub. I would appreciate a bigger selection of vegetarian burgers, since I did not like the veggie patty. Quality of burgers and toppings is good though. Price okay.

18/05/2026: Excellent little diner, great brunch but I heard they do a fine lunch too

12/05/2026: World’s best chicken sandwich!!

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.

29/04/2026: THE BEST! Booked due to the great reviews and suggestions, and wow - expectations were exceeded! Sharing platter for 2 was amazing, every meat was delicious and juicy. Sides were lovely too. Can’t thank the lovely server and kitchen staff for my partners birthday dessert - and the happy birthday song! Will return on our next visit for sure 🩷

27/04/2026: After visiting here i firmly believe those positive reviews are by those who have consumed copious amounts of alcohol so there observations and senses are greatly compromised. I visited Bison Bar recently, booking it purely because I had received a Press Up / Eclective voucher and saw it listed on their website. Having had consistently great experiences at other venues within that group, I trusted that this would be of a similar standard. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. On arrival, we were warmly welcomed by a staff member who was friendly, cheerful, and professional, which created a very positive first impression. However, the service that followed contrasted sharply with this. A different server, with short brown hair, took our order and approached the table with a blunt “What can I get you?” as her opening line, without any greeting. As it was our first time visiting, we had a few reasonable questions about portion sizes and menu options. Her responses were curt and dismissive, and she appeared visibly inconvenienced that she had to answer questions rather than simply take an order and move on. During the meal, I also observed behaviour that I found particularly unprofessional. After serving a nearby table, she removed an empty glass and, as she turned away and walked past us, I clearly saw her roll her eyes in apparent frustration at the customer’s request for another drink. It reinforced the impression that customers were being treated as a nuisance rather than being welcomed. Not long after, her demeanour shifted noticeably, becoming overly upbeat and chatty with other tables. This made me feel that she may have overheard me discussing her behaviour with my partner, or realised that I had seen what she had done. The food was the most disappointing aspect. The tacos were dry, with shells that seemed stale and cracked, and the fillings were lacking in quality. The meat dishes were heavily covered in overly sweet barbecue sauce, which felt like it was masking poor-quality ingredients. Even the sides, including the coleslaw, were unpalatable. We didn’t finish our meal and chose to leave despite still being hungry. Overall, this experience fell far below expectations, particularly given its association with a group known for higher standards. It’s not somewhere I would have chosen independently, and unfortunately it hasn’t lived up to the reputation that led us there in the first place.

02/05/2026: Down from Donegal for a midweek gig. We had been recommended Asador by a friend. My significant other is a pescetarian and loved the look of the non meat elements on the menu so we thought we'd give it a go. Firstly, we were eating early so had the place to ourselves to begin with, and how lucky we were as the staff were SO friendly. Food wise we shared 3 small plates and had a main dish each. We went Porcini orzo, Cabbage and Crab for the small plates. All incredible but the standout was the cabbage! I don't know what witchcraft they worked on it but it was as far from the vegetable of my childhood that it's possible to get. For mains we went Swordfish and Monkfish. The Swordfish was the best I've eaten and the Monkfish was shown no mercy either. We had a smoked tenderstem broccoli side which was also superb. For dessert we shared the basque cheesecake which made me wish I'd the room to eat it all myself. Then to finish we had 2 coffees which was the best coffee I've drunk in a very long time. Maybe if you read this review you can tell me what coffee you served us? We also loved the quirky prints on the wall. Thank you to all of you for making us feel so welcome. It was the perfect start to a great night. I am counting the days until I get back to try the meat! Big love!

25/04/2026: Exceptionally high standard of Barbecue. The seafood is just top drawer. Great friendly helpful service. My second time here and honestly one of my favourite restaurants.

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.

28/06/2026: In the heart of Dublin City laduree transports you to the elegance and ambiance of French decadence

27/06/2026: Lovely little boutique sweet and macaroons shop in the heart of D2

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..!

18/09/2025: Good place to have a salad. Something different to the majority of restaurants and pubs.

09/09/2025: The food is good and healthy, BUT EVERYTHING IS DISPOSABLE! The plates, the cutlery, the glasses… where's the sustainability? The amount of packaging that could be saved every day.
