10/08/2025: Has very delicious Coffee, very comfortable seatings and nice screen showing fligt status.

13/01/2026: Great lady at the counter! Nice spot for take away

05/01/2026: Very disappointing experience👎. I placed an order via Uber Eats at 3:07am, well before the 4am closing time, but the food never arrived (the order seemed to be accepted by the restaurant). By 4:40am there was still no update. When I called the store, staff were rude. First, they said there was no such order, then later claimed their Uber Eats system wasn’t working. Because Domino’s uses their own drivers, Uber Eats didn’t give me an order update nor did it allow me to cancel the order myself. After reading other reviews, this seems to be a recurring issue. If the system isn’t working, delivery should not be left open. Completely wasted time and energy, especially late at night while waiting to take medication.

26/06/2025: Tiny, comfy, close to the sea and the 2 guys there are so lovely! Specially TUK 💘 He's lovely!

20/06/2025: The service was below expectations. There was no Wi-Fi available, and it was unclear who was managing the facility. Overall, a disappointing experience.

31/01/2026: I had very high hopes. It was disappointing. The pasta nothing unusual. The bolognese came in a clump and were somewhere warm. The carbonara was ok. The place had a specific smell, and not a pleasant one.

23/01/2026: Regarding the service: The welcome was pleasant and quick. The ordering process was explained to us, and the waiter was very kind. The food: We ordered two dishes (Beef Cheek Tagliatelle and Garlic Prawns & Chilli). They were delivered on time. The beef cheek had very good meat, but the pasta needed more cooking time as it was slightly undercooked. The Garlic Prawns pasta was somewhat oily and only had four prawns. Overall, the dishes were reasonable in terms of price and portion size. We also ordered a dessert (tiramisu), which was very good—well balanced and fresh. 4/5 Atmosphere of the place: The place looks clean, with pleasant music, but it lacks character—everything is black, simple, and minimalist. 2/5

05/11/2025: I went there last Sunday. Everything would have been perfect, but the manager was really disappointing. He was very aggressive and spoke rudely. Honestly, he seemed to be 100% under the influence of alcohol. An older man, with completely inappropriate behavior for a public place.

30/10/2025: Well-kept place, very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent Guinness. Highly recommended.

07/10/2025: I would like to make a complaint about a very disappointing experience at your café. The staff member who served us was extremely rude and unprofessional, behaving as if she was doing us a favor instead of providing customer service. We really enjoy your coffee, but this kind of attitude completely ruins the experience. I hope management takes this seriously and ensures proper customer service training for the staff involved.

27/09/2025: The place is so nice and has lots of variety of beverages and food as well. The staff is so unfriendly and grumpy! No smiles at all , I didn’t feel very comfortable there.

29/12/2025: Is a great spot if you're looking for a very fresh pizza in Killester. The vibe's casual, and the staff is friendly, you can see the pizza being make…

27/12/2025: Good environment Pizza is amazing I loved, I ordered a special one for christmas The staffs are so kind I really recommend that pizza shop to go !!!!

25/10/2025: Excellent local supermarket with nearly everything one would need for a weekly shop. Obviously, physical size is the limiting factor so less commonly used items can be difficult or impossible to find. Staff are friendly and helpful. Adequate car park that usually suffices but occasionally gets overwhelmed. Has an array of 7kw chargers - unfortunately 2 or 3 are permanently out of order and reporting this to a manager (repeatedly) is usually met with shoulder shrugging but no action. Very frustrating. If the chargers were fixed, this store would be a 5* one.

14/09/2025: Every time I am here the staff are so rude. Today I thanked the til operator and said have a good day after he scanned all my items. He looked in the opposite direction, completely ignoring me. It’s not the first time this has happened either. I’m not usually one to post a negative review, but as someone who has worked in customer facing roles for years (so I understand how difficult it can be) I just have always found the customer service here to be appalling it’s so disheartening.

18/01/2026: We had a lovely meal on a Friday evening, found a cozy spot on the couches. The food was delicious, we had pizza the huge goat cheese salad, and wedges. We had one desert between us, apple pie and two coffees. The bill was just over €50 which was very reasonable. The staff were under a bit of pressure, but they did their best.

01/01/2026: They literally saved our new year's eve 🎊 the place where we originally booked a table was overcrowded and we really thought we wouldn't be able to find a place somewhere else.. but in the end we got a table at the dog's house restaurant in 10min 😁 Food and service were excellent 👌 Thank you !

21/01/2026: Great restaurant just looking for a lil area to dance with my partner after the food musics spot on 🤌🏽keep up the good work.

30/12/2025: We visited this evening and your waiter Keith was really kind and helpful with my Mum who is a wheelchair user. He helped her into a comfy seat and straight away got her a glass of water. Nothing was too much for him. It's lovely to see young staff who will go the extra mile to take care of customers. The food was good too. Great portion size. More than we could finish.

26/12/2025: Two night stay. Standard room which was clean, warm and large enough to accommodate two. Breakfast included in rate. Reception and dining room staff all exceptionally courteous and helpful. Good variety of hot and cold dishes available for breakfast. Dinner menu is standard fare @ thirty euro per plate. Quiet atmosphere given the time of year. Few guests. Situated on the busy N81 road in Tallaght so some might find the traffic noise intrusive. Ample compliment ary car parking available. One of the few hotels that remain open for the entire Christmas period in Ireland, seemingly. Only one negative observation - the lighting in both the bedroom and the restaurant area is rather dim and makes reading difficult. Very good value for money overall. Three star hotel but a four star guest experience.

20/12/2025: Bathrooms need updating. Balcony should not be locked

10/12/2025: A really good value-for-money spot. Even though the prices have increased in recent years it's still only €9 for a full carton. I got the chicken lemongrass and it was great value for money. If you want calories per euro this is the place to go.

28/10/2025: Authentic, friendly and a last bastion of affordable street food

22/09/2025: The best takeaway I've had in Dublin!!

26/08/2025: had the best takeaway I’ve had in a long time from Saaep Thai! We ordered the beef black bean stir fry with chips and rice, and it was absolutely delicious. The portion sizes were really generous, the beef was cooked perfectly tender, and the vegetables were fresh and full of flavour. Everything was well balanced, not too heavy, and really satisfying. I’ll definitely be ordering again – highly recommend!

17/08/2025: A good place for coffee, with outdoor tables. Perfect.

07/08/2025: The best coffee in your area, it is an open-air caravan so the weather must be good for the experience to be good
