The best restaurants in Dublin

14/09/2025: Simply the best breakfast in Ireland

10/08/2025: Chicken was pink inside and cold girl working in place was nearly sitting on my shoulder when I asked to see the menu again an kept asking why the child not eating the chicken absolute muck never again

25/11/2025: I was here few times: always as drop in when hectic traffic- to wait for better way- with my grandson. Such warm atmosphere, smiling and friendly staff - I am very happy here when spending few hours.. and.. a beef! .. just melting in the mouth.. quiet music…. What else one would dream when outside windy and traffic jam for hours? BIG THANK YOU!!!

23/11/2025: Good hotel. Very friendly staff (in Ireland, so what do you expect), good room size, quiet, and good location if you are visiting Park West. Quite a distance from the centre of Dublin, although there is a bus that is inexpensive.

03/01/2026: Got a spice bag off of deliveroo and it was the worst spice bag I’ve ever had. The chips were soggy and chicken was very clearly from the freezer. We counted two pieces of pepper and onion in the whole bag and to top it off they gave me two spice bags. Coke was also gone off and flat in the tin. The curry sauce had separated in the container and tasted like O’Donnell’s cheap sauce from the supermarket. Something so simple could be done so much better :(

31/12/2025: Shi Wang Yun, Authentic Chinese Flavors in Ireland Who understands?! Discovering Shi Wang Yun, a hidden gem of a Chinese restaurant in Ireland, was absolutely divine! The freshly fried dough sticks are golden and crispy, with a fluffy, honeycomb-like texture inside, paired with silky sweet soy milk—it instantly transports you back to a breakfast stall in China. The oil-splashed biangbiang noodles are thick and chewy, with hot oil and fragrant chili powder mixed with minced garlic, so delicious you can't help but slurp them up; the pork pies have a crispy crust and a juicy, tender filling—every bite is pure bliss. From soy milk and fried dough sticks in the morning to Sichuan, Hunan, and Northeastern Chinese dishes at lunchtime, this restaurant infuses every dish with the essence of Chinese life. Eating this in a foreign land is truly therapeutic!

08/04/2026: Absolutely horrendous service experience. One out of my room I asked the gormless receptionist if they could check the room for my AirPods. It took him 10 minutes of clicking through his computer just to then ask me “what room I was staying in”. He got someone to check the room for me, where I was then assured that they had “searched everywhere” and my AirPods weren’t there. I then got a call at the airport two hours later to say that actually, they hadn’t looked and my AirPods were there however I would now have to pay a €15 delivery fee. I paid this delivery fee and was told the AirPods would be sent the next day and that I would be provided with the tracking number. Since I’ve paid it’s been radio silence, despite two chases. I’ve been to Dublin many times but I can quite confidently say that I will never stay at this hotel again, and you shouldn’t either if you want to deal with competent individuals rather than this group of clowns.

02/04/2026: The rooms are good and the best things about is location is that it's across the street from Connolly train station. The area is sort of far from the main area of central Dublin and the surrounding sidewalks are full of trash and vomit. The hotel itself was great but would not stay again due to the location

15/12/2025: Food here is awesome. Their burgers and kebabs are amazing…

08/08/2025: Food was horrendous and expensive 17:50 for a collection for one. Dry chips, cheap small cheap sausages, lumpy microwave curry sauce.

28/03/2026: Nice location, great, fast and gentle service. Why the score? Well, you are supposed to eat in there, I heard positive and negative opinions about the food, it seems like the latest were the correct ones. Simply a pizza and fries. Fries were good, but they are fries/chips, it's a serious issue if you miss them, but I must admit that they are slightly above the average. But the pizza... Woah, I tried so many doughs and toppings of pizza in my life, but it is definitely one of the worst. The dough had an instant impact on my stomach, obviously due to the incorrect/incomplete leavening process and, somehow, it was also soggy. Why somehow? Because I can't understand how could be soggy with not generous at all ingredients, toppings were barely enough, had a pretty bland taste and they looked honestly disgusting. I'm not exaggerating when I say that if you manage to somehow find a 50 cents frozen pizza, it will somehow remind you of Romayo's pizza, but it will look way better, dough would be better (since yes, it's worst than the dough in any frozen pizza I ever tried) and it's even possible that toppings will have a stronger taste. Absolutely disappointed, I was looking forward to this dinner and I hoped it would be great, since I could have become an usual, living very close to the place. Well, it is what it is. Free to go of course, if you enjoy it, but I would never suggest it to anyone. Next time I wanted to try the burger, but after this meal I will never go back in there. They do only the pizza badly and everything else is amazing? No clue and I will never discover it, what I know is that if you are unable to do something, you should not do it.

24/03/2026: This is the second time I've tried to go to this place and bring friends, but unfortunately the customer service is the worst.

15/12/2025: Old style family pub in suburbs of Dundrum. The menu had all you needed, very good value and quality was excellent. Give it a go if you are near by, good alternative.

11/12/2025: Balinteer men's shed Christmas party went with a bang .FOOD was excellent and music top class.A great night was had by all .Definitely recommend it for a gathering. Thanks to Tomas for everything Owen

19/07/2025: As we are creatures of habit, we strolled in to Starbucks for a coffee and a blueberry muffin. The service was excellent, very polite. Food and coffee were great. Great spot to sit and relax when out and about.

21/05/2025: 2 beautiful Bernese enjoying Starbucks

23/11/2025: Great local, Irish music and a cracking pint

11/04/2026: Not good. While the food is nice the staff is very rude. Won’t come back

11/04/2026: Place - check Vibe - check Food - double check Everything was great, u all should try but only one thing which i did not like was staff There is a girl on first floor who was making rush to order something and felt racism and very disrespectful. We asked for her suggestions in ordering something and she was least interested to help us. It was my first date with my boyfriend where we planned for a romantic date and she spoilt our mood due to which we left the place and went somewhere else for dinner.

25/08/2025: Love this place for years. Unfortunately bar staff Steve came in pints are not the same so the customers say.

22/08/2025: Was there for all ireland football final .. didn't open untill 1230 .. can't believe they don't look for exemption for the 2 finals .. people queuing outside for 2 hours to get in ..

23/12/2025: Hi y'all Small little place, hard to get parking, expensive... But...nice...ish

08/12/2025: Used to be regular in killester supervalu. This one pales in comparison. But only option in walkable distance.

25/07/2025: V nice new bar , “ Broadway “ . Food is incredible, staff wonderful and very helpful

12/04/2025: Best bar I've ever been to. Pool table, excellent service, and amazing pizza (perfect NY style pizza). I've been at Harlaxton for 3 months, and it's the best pub I've had while I've been here. I highly recommend it.

06/01/2026: Unfortunately, this restaurant has closed permanently. It will be sadly missed by regular happy customers. See my review below: The best breakfast / lunch restaurant in Monkstown bar none. Everything on the menu is delicious it’s so hard to choose. Super service too! I’m a regular and always will be. Highly recommend an early G&T.

06/12/2025: 3 stars max because the place is cosy and the coffee is good, but I wouldn’t return there for the brunch menu…branch menu is just average and not a good value for money.

05/04/2026: The selection was very limited and the food ended up being very oily.

26/03/2026: Have had positive experiences in the past but my partner and I were severely disappointed this time around. He ordered the beef cheek ragu and it arrived entirely uncooked, the pasta was rock solid and inedible. I ordered the garlic prawn pasta and the sauce was entirely butter with little to no seasoning. My partner got a replacement dish but the staff are extremely inattentive and very difficult to get a hold of, overall not very friendly. Will not be back.
