The best restaurants in Dublin

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 ..

08/12/2025: Anju made us the best gingerbread coffee at Nespresso in Dublin! Love coming here to get Nespresso!

08/12/2025: I had the gingerbread espresso and it was fabulous! Anju took really good care of us. I will definitely return!

06/11/2025: Had takeaway. The seating area seemed nice and clean, but wasn't in long enough to get a good feel for it. The food was good, but the order got messed up and we one dish was lost. Double checking the bag would've been a good idea.

22/10/2025: Lovely food plenty of it. Good service too.

06/10/2025: Well-priced, tasty food, and a generously sized pot of tea! The second time I visited, it took a little while to get served because of how busy it was in there (this is not at all a complaint, it's just how it goes sometimes), but the manager was very apologetic and even offered a complimentary drink to make up for it. This was not at all necessary, but it shows that they care about the customer experience here. The other staff members were also very friendly.

01/10/2025: The owner is so rude and uses foul language. The products are not safe, hygiene-wise. Be careful!

29/11/2025: Didn’t have the stone steak this time which would have given it 5 for food!

29/11/2025: Excellent meal this evening at Scotts, Charte and Sinead made it special, superb wine insights by Charte!

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!

18/10/2025: Toastie was fine but the indoor sitting area is very scruffy and dirty

18/10/2025: Toastie was very nice and a decent price but the inside seating area was very dirty with bird poo on the tables. No effort made to clean it.

28/01/2026: Best fried chicken I've had in my life, it's amazing!

19/01/2026: Mix and chicken kebab from Max Takeaway is unreal — massive portion, loads of flavour, and perfectly cooked meat fresh salad and plenty of sauce. The staff were really friendly and welcoming too. Great value for the size, Me and my girlfriend order one or two every week xD can't go wrong

06/06/2025: First i stepped on dog poo out side her shop i asked her for water to clean it of but when i had tisue and got it off by stepping on puddles i was just trying to tell its ok and I got it off bit she started acting cheeky wont even let me speak saying it not my problem and leave my store now and sighed steppingcon some dog poo and asking free water bare in mind if she would asked me it cost money i would pay because i dont have a problem with it cause she wants to bisness and she was very cheeky and I went there before and the Coffee was so bitter and disgusting i would not recommend it for anyone.

03/06/2025: Cute and traditional café located in the center of Dublin. Here you can get a traditional Irish breakfast among other options like bagels, sandwiches and wraps. The staff was very friendly and even brought the food to our table. The food was sensational and gave us a sense of tradition inside of a modern city like Dublin. We would recommend this place to have breakfast or coffee any day!

04/12/2025: Gotta be honest I’ve gotten from here a few times now and they not once gave me what I actually ordered, they always get my order wrong and give me something else, the saving grace is that the food is very nice. the service is very fast which is great and convenient but if getting the correct order once in a while meant waiting a little longer I wouldn’t mind haha take your time lads!

21/11/2025: Perfect food and perfect service.

29/11/2025: A retro roadhouse feel restaurant. The food was tasty and I'll come back to try some other dishes.

27/11/2025: Always a varying experience here. Sometimes staff are amazing, next time they are quite rude. They never come over to ask about desserts and are very slow to clear the table. One thing that remains consistent is the food which I suppose is the most important part.

30/12/2025: Wonderful, only complaint is that I had not visited sooner

29/12/2025: The delivery guy showed up 2 hours later. We tried to call the restaurant but they never picked up the phone or called us back. Absolutely disgraceful. Worst service ever

19/11/2025: The chips were a bit dry, even though I asked for salt and loadsss of vinegar. The kebab in pita bread was also very spicy than I expected.🥵 Overall, I don’t really see the hype, so I wouldn’t be rushing back. :/

27/08/2025: Does exactly what you expect, Good Food served fast with 4/6 seats and a high tables in store

24/12/2025: Good coffee, good service. The no substitution on food was pretty poor for a standard café

23/11/2025: The mexican eggs were so delicious, and the people I was with enjoyed their brekkies too, pancakes and a mini irish. Coffee was done beautifully, though it was on the pricier side. Cute cozy little spot!

16/12/2025: Food is very good and the place has a nice atmosphere. However, paying 7 euros for a pint of Guinness, you would at least expect it to be a decent pour. I would excuse one bad pint, but I ordered 3 pints in a row, from three different bar staff and each pour was progressively worse than the previous. Guinness is one of the most popular, if not most popular drink orders. The place is lovely, but at least get the basics right and teach staff how to pour a pint of Guinness properly.

10/12/2025: Walked in on a Wednesday night, place wasn’t busy at all but the bartender was so slow to serve us, mainly because he was to busy trying to be cool for his mates. We order 3 whiskey sours that tasted so bad. We just left without finishing our drinks. Don’t recommend it!!
