The best restaurants in Dublin

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

31/12/2025: Got the shovelhead (swapped Salame for Italian sausage), the parma, the vegan garden with buffalo mozzarella, and the Salame. They were all amazing. Really really enjoyed, will definitely be ordering from here again :))

25/08/2025: I was inspired to offer a review after three excellent experiences. This is a genuinely terrific Pizza offering (Hawaiian, adding wild mushrooms and sweetcorn). The staff seem to enjoy working there, and that may help explain the great food.

09/01/2026: Had been regulars. Went there for a big family birthday. Place was freezing. Had booked big table ahead for the occasion, letting staff know the occasion in advance. Under the rude instruction of Cristian, the waitresses started trying to move us on after an hour, when we were barely seated. Needed the table, apparently. Cristian impolitely shouted across the table that it was in the terms and conditions when receiving the booking e-mail that tables could only booked for 2 hours, and they began to rush us almost immediately. Brusk and ignorant. Ordered chorizo iberico, and got served some cheap stuff from the economy supermarket sandwich aisle. Pointed out the fraud, and Cristian magnanimously blamed his chef. We had birthday cake to come. Told him face to face what I thought of his manners. Later, received a mealy-mouthed apology, some gaslighting about the music, of which there was none, making it seem like he had shouted, and a large discount. Clown show. Never returned.

31/12/2025: Small portion for the paella, but very sumptuous. The croquettes and beef cheek are just amazing

13/12/2025: food is great, but organisation is lacking so bad that the que for table is so slow. need staff to be more organised. overall good food.

18/11/2025: Pretty busy. Loved it... msybe needs one more staff member

01/01/2026: A group of 9 attended the Ivy over Christmas for a family birthday, 90th, the problems started from the time we arrived, the table we were given only sat 8, we were told by a manager that they were short staffed and there was nothing they could do, we had to squeeze to fit us all in. The starters and desert were lovely but unfortunately the mains were not so good. Several of us ordered the fish which was only warm, on person ordered a steak, they requested medium, but it came out blue. The sides were not delivered until most of us had finished the mains. The young waiter who served us was very nice, attentive and apologised to us from the time we sat down. I have been at the Ivy several times before, as had another member of the party and unfortunately after this experience we will not be returning.

01/01/2026: Food was bland 😕 The service and atmosphere was okay but it’s really nothing special.

24/11/2025: The food is good yes. But the time they say does not match how long it takes. The time is said to be an hour for delivery which is already alot of time but im waited for 2 just to get the food. By the time the food came the sauce was all over the bag and they for my drinks wrong the food was cold too.Im very disappointed.

17/11/2025: Best pizza and spicy chicken in dublin highly recommended

19/09/2025: I had a great experience at this bubble tea shop Ea-Tea! The staff were really nice and very accommodating, always ready with recommendations. I was pleasantly surprised by their dim sum menu — delicious, fresh, and such a good complement to the drinks. Everything is fairly priced, which is quite unusual in Dublin these days where prices are generally high. Great value for money and definitely worth a visit! 💯❤️

09/09/2025: I love Taro tea but not many Tea places does it that taste good. This is one of the few! I usually go to my "reliable bubble tea shop" but decided to try this one for a change and it didn't disappoint. I've stopped there with my two little kids and as it was lunch time we got some chichen pop corn and chips as well with our Taro bubble teas. Chicken is super delicious! What a treat and surprise. We liked so much we got more to take home as the ration is good for one person and we are three so we kinda fought a bit over that chicken 😂 There are few tables inside for a quick stop and snack and it's just on front of Parnell Luas stop. Staff are also welcoming and friendly. My son says the man in the counter looks like one of the guys in Demon K-pop Hunter but I'm not sure about that or who 😅 He also says he wants to come back again. And we will!

27/11/2025: Great breakfast, 👍 lovely food and friendly staff

09/11/2025: Good food, friendly staff and a handy location.

16/12/2025: Foods ok. Not fab but its not terrible. They stopped doing the taco potato an that was prob 1 of the nicest things on thier menu!

15/12/2025: Great takeaway, very reasonable price and always exceptional quality. Deliveryis very quick too. Strongly recommend.

18/01/2026: At last GF fish and tasty chips, it really is that easy to provide a GF variety. 👏🏻

10/01/2026: Lol - just shy of €5 for a bag of chips. Nowhere else is Dublin has hit this. Shocking. Terrible. Unimaginable. Beyond the actual Pale. Get the hell out of our lives. This is not ok.

01/12/2025: it’s a cute little cafe in a retirement home or sth but the people were nice, the coffee good and the prices low👍

02/09/2025: Great breakfast sandwich/roll , warm and fresh best I've found in this area.

19/10/2025: Nice coffee but are we really only offering takeaway cups in 2025?

07/10/2025: Easily the best scones in Dublin. The Parlour in Blackrock is a little gem — great coffee, friendly chat, and a perfect spot to sit back and enjoy by the sea. The scones are traditional and done right, served with the all-important Dairygold (one for each side, as it should be) and proper jam. One of my wife and my favourite spots to wind down — simple, classic, unbeatable.

09/01/2026: Been coming here for 8+ years and the food quality has gone downhill in a major way. The curries lack flavour and more importantly meat. The butter chicken came with 6 shrievelled chicken pieces and the peshwari naan isn’t filled with sugar anymore, a little is meagrely sprinkled on top. In particular, the korma resembled more of a vegetable soup as opposed to a mild nutty curry, very annoying. Cutting corners while simultaneously increasing prices by €3 per main menu item isn’t smart. Thoroughly disappointed will have to search elsewhere for an authentic Indian smh

03/12/2025: Lovely plates, good place to have a dinner.

17/10/2025: Lovely options of salad, fancy price but tasty. Very helpful workers to decide your salad size and ingredients.

09/10/2025: Ordered a sprout from Deliveroo and the salad was freezing when delivered, the portion was tiny with half the bowl empty and they gave next to no sauce. So disappointing given how expensive it is

16/11/2025: Always order from here for years! Amazing food always, always hot when delivered and delivery is fast. Chicken fried rice is too good. Just hope they add vegetables to it like years ago!

22/10/2025: Good portion and nice place. Have to try
