The best restaurants in Dublin

16/06/2025: Trying somewhere new, got a matcha and banana bread. Matcha was not good, very bitsy and disappointing. Banana bread was quite dry but flavour was grand! Didn’t try the coffee but if you wanted matcha maybe try somewhere else unfortunately.

11/06/2025: I really love it here. Staff are very friendly, great coffee and my dog is always welcome. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

19/11/2025: The chips were a bit dry, even though I asked for salt and loadsss of vinegar. The kebab in pita bread was also very spicy than I expected.🥵 Overall, I don’t really see the hype, so I wouldn’t be rushing back. :/

27/08/2025: Does exactly what you expect, Good Food served fast with 4/6 seats and a high tables in store

12/10/2025: Disgusted! It is unacceptable for anyone to treat a customer in such a rude manner!

12/10/2025: The manager of the pub (at least that’s what he said he was) became quite aggressive and even tried to start a fight with me. It was around 7:00 PM, and I was not drunk, first beer of the day. He seemed to think that my friend and I were laughing at someone who had fallen, but we were actually laughing about something completely unrelated. Honestly, I understand that he might have been frustrated or stressed — and I wish him all the best — but I hope he learns to calm down. His behaviour felt dangerous for customers, and I have to admit I was scared.

19/07/2025: Four of us went there for dinner. It was a Thursday evening. It was a truly delightful experience. The waitress was welcoming, clarified any doubts we had in relation to the menu, explained dishes, talked about the ingredients,... And all that with kindness, patience and a smile. We all agreed that the food not only looked amazing (beautifully presented), it was delicious!!! Lately, I have experienced that, although some restaurants may have nice food, you barely get to enjoy it or enjoy the company of the person you're with. Once you sit down, the clock starts ticking and when time is over you're presented with the bill. Wine is overpriced and often served incorrectly (too warm or filling the glasses too fast in order to get you to buy another bottle). Thankfully, none of that happened here!!! I enjoyed being out with my friends, trying delicious dishes new to us. Having a relaxed dinner and catching up without being interrupted or rushed out. I will certainly go back and I'd recommend it for the quality of the food and the service!

14/07/2025: Really good Chinese food. Get the fish soup or the beef ho fun.

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.

01/03/2026: Very good! Both the fries and the burger.

08/01/2026: Excellent bar with a NYC dive bar vibe

20/12/2025: Pub with Vinyl DJ and good atmosphere, HOWEVER..... to my surprise when I went into the toilets there was a lot of BLACK MOULD..... See Photos

16/12/2025: Great establishment for fresh morning breakfast and afternoon lunch.

19/07/2025: Friendly, helpful staff and always good food. Recommended

09/10/2025: Love Fuji Coffee in the Merrion Centre! The coffee is always amazing and everyone who works there is so friendly every day. I go there after the school run and it’s a great way to start the day

05/10/2025: Me and my husband just love Fiji Coffe Bar, not only for the great speciality coffee and the best dark hot chocolate in Dublin (not exaggerating), but also for an exceptional customer service. The whole team working in Fiji is very friendly and that creates warm and lovely atmosphere.

20/09/2025: “It was impossible to place an order online. I tried ringing the place continuously for almost two hours, but there was no answer. My online order was rejected twice because they couldn’t accept it.”

17/09/2025: The food was amazing and worth every single euro! Definitely a regular stop for good Indian food.

21/02/2026: Nando’s is always a good choice. I usually get the boneless platter with rice and chips, and it’s always tasty. Simple, fresh, and satisfying. A great spot for an easy, reliable meal.

19/02/2026: Service was great, gelbi (spelling that wrong defo) was lovely 👍🏻

18/01/2026: Food was lovely and hot. There was a lot of variety on the menu. Very friendly service. Down side the place was freezing so we didn't stay for desert or coffee.

27/02/2026: I brought a school group into Rockets IFSC & they were extremely helpful & accommodating in particular Ramona. Thank you!

22/02/2026: Oh my god what happened to the menu! There is next to nothing on it and it’s not cheap! I sent my daughter over with a friend and they no longer take cash! She had to walk out. Ridiculous! Come on management this used to be a great place. Now I’m sat here and it’s empty. Not another soul in the place. I live locally and for sure this place is going to close.

22/10/2025: We visited Olives Garden with our daughter and our dog. Lovely outdoor seating, family-friendly atmosphere, and a great selection of pastries. Perfect spot to relax and enjoy the view. Great coffees

13/10/2025: Great coffee and delicious cake! Very busy but that was due to the sunshine...

14/01/2026: Very welcoming place, highly recommended

02/12/2025: Vibrant food market with a welcoming, communal atmosphere. It’s lively yet not chaotic, allowing visitors to explore comfortably. The variety of food stalls, casual seating and upbeat energy make it a perfect spot for quick bites or a relaxed afternoon of tasting and wandering.

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!
