The best restaurants in Dublin

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.

11/06/2026: Excellent breakfast prepared fresh in front of you, and Teresa, the owner, is a lovely person.

10/05/2026: Delicious food and great experience for our first real restaurant in Dublin. The staff was wonderfully nice, welcoming, and accomodating of our level of english. 100% recommend !

10/05/2026: The food was very good and the staff were friendly. The garlic butter fries were delicious and crispy. I really enjoyed it.

06/05/2026: Probably the most filthy establishment I've ever been in. Disgusting. Staff always look unkempt and greasy looking.. The whole place is covered in a layer of grime boardered by a triming of caked on filth. Gross. Disgusting. Putrid. Gordan Ramsy would have a full on rage induced panic attack of a nervous breakdown it's so filthy. Wow is it a pig sty.

20/05/2026: The burgers are freshly made so it does take time during peak hour so do order online for collect and dine their . Variety of different burgers and all of them get a smash 😁 . Excellent quality and taste. Would definitely return to try out all their burgers

16/05/2026: Unreal, food was beyond expectations. I heard it was good but that was an understatement. Great portions, brought two hungry girls and they enjoyed every bite especially the chicken tenders

14/05/2026: We eat Kites regularly, somoly because it's excellent. .

08/04/2026: If you’re hunting for authentic Cantonese flavors in Dublin, this spot is a must-visit. It’s easily one of the best in the city. The star of the show is undeniably the Roast Duck, the portions here are very generous. You definitely get your money's worth

29/05/2026: Lovely food but has gotten very pricey as of late

28/05/2026: Good Mexican cuisine if you like it

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.

02/05/2026: Excellent service and delicious food, very well served. I ordered the combo for 12.95.

01/05/2026: danny makes the best doner fries so yummy😋

14/06/2025: Friendly staff nice pint of Guinness

03/04/2025: The grattan pub and staff are amazing Simon olga and amy very nice people.. the sushi is for me the best in Dublin I've been all over but uts. Y far the nicest

07/01/2026: It was a celebration for family and friends, The staff were excellent,the party food was fresh and it just kept on coming.The beer was first class and no hanging around.All in all they really did our family proud.Many thanks

17/11/2025: Great put we didnt have food but the band and atmosphre was brilliant

31/05/2026: They should really focus on cleanliness, the tables are not cleaned at all it seems. Only one bathroom was operational. Overall they need to improve the service standards.

28/03/2026: Today, we asked few couple of milk shapes and pink pops for kids...the guy who took deliberately tried to fool and did charged extra items and was reluctant to give the receipts. Starbucks is very famous and got great reputation...they shouldn't allow such stuff... However the drinks and chocolates are too good ...kids loved it..

20/03/2026: Lovely staff ,reasonable prices,great food,can get busy sometimes so must be patient

19/03/2026: Meh, its just meh. Itll do if youre hungry enough but its nothing special. Did find a curly blonde hair in the curry which kinda wrecked the whole thing after. Driver took ages to deliver, bag wasnt closed so everything was already tepid when it arrived

26/12/2025: We arrived at The Port House Cava for our booking at 1pm Christmas Eve. The restaurant was empty except for one table. All the other tables were vacant. The server greeted us and immediately warned us he needed the table back at 3pm. That’s fine. We sat. We waited. The same server was down the back chatting with the kitchen over the pass. We waited a little longer, still no drinks order was coming. I decided to draw some attention to our table by going up to the empty bar. The only occupied table gave me a glance that I read as a comment on the hopeless service as they tried to get the same servers attention. He was still chatting at the pass while the only two tables were both waiting for some attention. Up to the bar he saunters, I ask if we can order some prosecco. We only have Cava he says “they are the same thing”. No there not I reply, but ok let’s have a bottle of cava and if you don’t mind 6 glasses for our table. Back at our table he produces a wine list which would have been handy when we were seated. The cava arrives. It’s barely chilled. I say nothing. Again the same server reminds us that he needs the table back at 3pm. My blood is boiling at this stage as my family as I are made feel like we are an obstruction of sorts. The food arrives and it’s delicious. Well presented. Well cooked and a delight. The first bottle of cava is empty. I’d like to order another but the server is back down at the pass chatting again. To command he attention, again I get up and venture to the bar. Another server has started his shift just before 2pm. He’s more attentive. We order another cava and a bottle of rosé. 2.40pm and the 2nd server starts clearing our table. 2.50pm and they are hovering around our table to let us know it’s almost time to go. The restaurant is still empty except for one other 3top table. The bill arrives and I settle at the bar leaving half the tip I normally would. I ask the server why the hard push on getting the table back while the restaurant is empty. He has no answer. Which points me toward the owner or manager who I know will read this review. So, dear sir or madam, your pockets would be better lined if you spent as much time on encouraging your staff to deliver a good experience rather than a punctual one. You’re employing bus boys, not servers. We’re paying for the experience of which the food is only part. The atmosphere was dead just like the bookings. What’s the different between The Port House Cava and Tapas Del Lola? The staff. The staff. The staff. You’re doing Camden Street no favours with this diabolical customer service. I strongly suggest you consider adding some charm somewhere because you’re just not at the level of some of your good neighbours.

23/12/2025: Amazing place. Prices too high.

01/11/2025: Coffee and food are excellent, and staff are very helpful. Highly recommended.

01/11/2025: My favorite cafe around Sandyford. Mark and Jerry are super nice and friendly. The coffee is really good and the food is always fresh and tasty. You can see why there are so many customers every day — it’s just a great local spot! ☕🥐!
