The best restaurants in Dublin

06/08/2026: I saw Banshee of Inisheer there. Such a sad, but well acted, movie.

23/09/2026: Oriental Emporium We visited this supermarket while at the Jervis Luas stop. We spent some time browsing and bought some Asian groceries here.

08/09/2026: The selection wasn't as extensive as the Asian tour, but it did include a poultry counter.

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.

13/09/2026: If I had only one restaurant to recommend in Dublin, it would be this one.

07/09/2026: there seemed to be no security on the floor or at least they were not paying attention, a physical fight broke out for a solid 5 minutes and no staff intervened, they eventually just stopped fighting on their own. bathrooms are a disgrace, only gender neutral bathrooms with no separate space for just women which is ridiculous for a nightclub. guys were hitting on me and my friends in the bathroom and there was no women only space for us to go and sorry, but i don’t want to be around guys pissing in the urinal while waiting for a free stall, gender neutral bathrooms have their place, but not having a women only bathroom isn’t the safest option in my opinion. there was also a guy completely tweaking out on the dance floor, falling on everyone and at one point completely passed out, a girl tried to flag down floor staff / security by flashing her phone light at him and calling out but to no avail. also as some other reviews mention, the sound quality is not as good as other venues and is way too hot, really needs some more ventilation, even the smoking area was incredibly hot, and could definitely turn the smoke down. really just not acceptable stuff for a venue with a seemingly very good reputation. the venue itself is really cool, just seems to be poorly managed, atleast on the night i was there.

06/09/2026: Very recommended to pick the Chef’s sunday surprise menu. It’s 49 euros but the variety, the quantity and the quality it’s outstanding.

09/08/2026: Delicious meal with extreme care given to allergy requests (coeliac friendly). Wonderful staff with beautiful wine pairing. Best food available in blackrock/stilorgan area

24/10/2026: Last minute decision to come here but totally the right one. Great service and great food. Will be back!

22/10/2026: Conveniently located near our hotel, the restaurant has a modern but rather unremarkable dining room. However, the service was friendly and attentive. We weren’t particularly hungry, but we were curious to try the pizza, and it turned out to be excellent, genuinely top quality. I’m Italian, so I know a thing or two about pizza! The Malbec by the glass was also a very pleasant surprise. Good food, friendly service and excellent value for money. Definitely worth a visit!

07/10/2026: Vania was awesome. Excellent service and Really good food. Would really love to come back again.

06/10/2026: We loved it! Stopped here for lunch on our first day super jetlagged and needed some easy food. And their pizza was phenomenal. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for some good pizza

21/09/2026: Went here to get some lunch and drinks. Would not recommend the food. Portioning was too little in my opinion for their price point. The toastie we got was incredibly greasy. The burger tasted fine.

02/09/2026: Amazing experience. James was super great and quizzed us on our Guinness knowledge! Very fun.

27/09/2026: Amazing food amazing service comfortable atmosphere must visit higly recommended

23/09/2026: Had an amazing experience at King's Biryani House. The food was delicious, and clearly well made. The lamb was tender. And the owner was so kind. Highly recommend this restaurant to others looking for a great meal.

20/05/2026: Gem 💎. We discovered this place as we're looking to park the car for going on holidays. Dropped of car and got courtesy bus to airport. Easy access to departures and on return super easy collection at park 16 for coaches . The hotel itself is very comfortable, has everything you'd need.we stayed here after getting off late flight . We actually got bumped up to an apartment so had choice of bedrooms and kitchen plus 2bathrooms. Huge space with super views over airport.We stayed for lunch next day in the comfortable bar/lounge/ restaurant. Food was really nice great selection. Overall the most memorable part of our time using their facilities is the staff and absolute care and generous care they gave us when we rang back from holidays and needed our car checked. They went out of their way to contact us and complete our need. The car was parked underground for €12 a day, courtesy coach to and from the airport and then to stay over night was €241 in total. Great way to finish a lovely relaxing holiday. Totally recommend using the facilities and staying at The Metro & Apartments.

19/05/2026: Wonderful staff! Clean rooms. Closes to the bus to get to City Centre. Airport shuttle made getting out of the airport very easy! Great place to stay!

14/07/2026: Nice hotel, friendly staff and the food was very good.

16/06/2026: This is my time here not really seen anything

08/09/2026: These gents know what they're doing. I ordered the lamb kebeb and it was beyond perfect. All ingredients absolutely fresh, great hot and white sauces as well as nice soft flatbtead and the lamb beautifully cooked. Ten stars to these fellas.

22/08/2026: We went with a friend during a tattoo session, so we needed to be quick. They were super nice! wondering taste, we got lamb wrap, I recommend it 100%. I went there a couple of years ago, today after years my friend suggested this place and I didn’t doubt it!

15/10/2026: As recent reviews have said. The service is very slow, we were waiting for our drinks and starters for ages. The staff are very nice and apologised. It’s also far too loud inside, hard to hold a conversation. The food was very nice when it did arrive with big portion sizes. But it’s very expensive food, you’d expect to pay these prices in Dublin City centre. It seems to operate more as a restaurant now than a pub. It’s lost the charm that it had years ago.

14/10/2026: The food is quite good since the renovation, but it feels incredibly hectic inside. We were waiting over an hour for our dinner and it is incredibly loud and crammed inside now. I appreciate they are going down the restaurant route rather than the pub that was there before, but it feels like it's lost a large amount of its charm now.

31/08/2026: Have had a takeaway from this place a few times and it never disappoints! Had another great one tonight, generous spice bags and the food always arrives hot!

16/08/2026: I found eventually a great Chinese takeaway absolutely delicious 😋 and delivery was great 👍ordered again from Scent everything is still absolutely fabulous 👌 👏 👍 and delivery is still great keep it up Scent doing a great job 😀 😋ordered again last night still brilliant 👏 delivery great 👍 good job again 😀

25/06/2026: Great pub with great service, plus the pizza place connected does one fo the best Pizzas in Dublin. The staff are always friendly and look after you well especially Linda and Ana who are just fantastic

30/04/2026: Just left the bar with my wife and my kids. A true Irish pub, nice beer, nice pizza a cheaper than the city center. One day we if we are back there, we are going without hesitation in this pub.
