The best restaurants in Dublin

31/12/2025: Amazing Christmas sandwich, best I've had

27/12/2025: I love griolladh I pop in quite a bit and never had a bad experience but today I went and the lady in the scarf, a member of staff, made it well known she did not want to be there. Really off putting and disappointing as usually the staff are impeccable!

21/04/2026: Very tasty, nicely presented take away food.

01/01/2026: Food was tasty but very pricey for takeaway. There are less expensive places with equal quality in the area.2 mains with sides and 2 starters was almost €60.

16/03/2026: Today we had a lovely get-together for Iftari with 10 amazing friends. We started by breaking our fast with sweet dates and refreshing drinks, followed by a delicious spread of chicken starters and tasty appetizers. The table was full of flavour with a variety of starters, perfectly cooked chicken dishes, and a rich main course menu that everyone enjoyed together.

11/03/2026: I have had many experiences with this restaurant, both dining in and ordering takeaway. Unfortunately, the service has been very disappointing. The delivery drivers often tell customers the food is on the way, but in reality they take multiple deliveries at once, which causes long delays and leaves customers waiting. The staff also seem to struggle with communication. In many cases they have very limited English, so even simple requests have to be repeated many times and sometimes the order is still not correct. Because of these issues, the overall experience has been frustrating and unreliable.

13/08/2025: Great coffee and service by Sophie! She was so friendly and welcoming to us! Definitely will be back

29/07/2025: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely blown away! We stopped in at Ultimate Coffee for a quick coffee and were completely amazed. We were just handed one of the most delicious coffees we’ve ever tasted—beautifully crafted by Carlton, a truly wonderful barista. The coffee tastes every bit as good as it looks. Friendly service, great atmosphere, and outstanding quality. We’ll definitely be back!

16/12/2025: My team and I had our Christmas lunch here and had the Christmas sandwich. We all voted it number 1 Christmas sarnie in Dublin. Amazing sandwich plus mini roast potatoes and dipping gravy….. yum!! The mince pies were also fabulous! Service was warm and friendly, a great initiative run by brilliant people.

25/11/2025: Really lovely place. Had a nice relaxing time and food was amazing! Great prices too. Excellent service!

08/04/2026: We got there and ordered food and drinks. We then proceeded to wait for 55 minutes for our food. We then had to ask how long it would be and when they brought it out 5 minutes later the food was cold. Was hoping to enjoy a nice roast dinner but it was dry and cold. Wouldn't recommend.

07/04/2026: Great pub, great vibe but dinner came one hour and ten minutes later. Ridiculous! People who came after us were served before us. We had four hungry kids with us. Very disappointing to receive dinner at 9:35pm.

31/08/2025: Good pizza, but very expensive - 8 or 9 euros for a small reheated slice of pizza is a lot.Sitting on stool, eating with hands.However, it's in line with the unjustified prices in Temple Bar. I will not go back.

29/08/2025: We were hungry after the bars and this place was open. So we figured, why not? It was actually good food! The pizza is on a Chibatta type dough with really great toppings. Give it a try.

08/12/2025: Lovey staff and manager Colin is a gentleman and really nice coffee 👍

06/12/2025: Amazing food the best steak sub ever I had, thanks to Collin

09/04/2026: Had a great time. Staff were so lovely! Food was excellent and portions were a great size for the price. Had some lovely whiskey while there and would definitely recommend. The atmosphere was exactly how you want a bar to be welcoming and lively!

29/03/2026: What a tragedy! The old Porterhouse was such a lovely pub. Now it looks like a fast-food chain.

12/09/2025: Lovely food, great service and great value. A quiet night but that didn't bother us. Nice and relaxed 😊

24/08/2025: Always good. Friendly service. Excellent food

10/04/2026: Great Guinness, handy spot for pre or post match drinks on a trip to Tolka Park.

22/01/2026: Was refused service as soon as my friend and I went up to the counter. This was around 5pm on a Thursday there was about three people in the whole place. The bartender (not the manager John who i know) said “Regulars only” and told us to leave. Ive never heard the likes before in my life. We were well dressed, completely sober, and had just walked all the way from university in the rain to watch the racing. Very disappointing.

04/10/2025: Always serving delicious very well balanced, perfectly cooked breakfast and lunch. Today's brunch with brisket beef on real sourdough, eggs and Japanese flavours is another great taste and value example!

02/10/2025: Bowls is a local food business which always has interesting and healthy food offerings.

15/03/2026: Two dinners were served after 10 minutes of others receiving there's. Plates weren't cleared. There was a crack in one of the glasses.

14/03/2026: Authentic Japanese taste and delicious. Lots of options and vegan also available.

08/08/2025: Nice driving range for a very reasonable price - €11 for 100 balls Charlie was a gent giving instructions and a few tips as it was my first time ever practicing golf

01/08/2025: Class experience. Greens were quite slow. Got my head caved in. Fun course 😁

22/01/2026: Came here for my birthday drinks with a friend and Eva was the best! She not only had the best recommendations but also kindly got us little cakes which was so sweet. Will be bringing my girlfriends back for all future birthday drinks!

10/01/2026: We went there just for a couple of cocktails around Christmas time. Despite the time of the year and the Christmas tree outside, the place didn't feel very warm. The cocktails we ordered were really good and the seasonal offering quite interesting.
