The best restaurants in Dublin

19/12/2025: Changed my original review because service has gone downhill rapidly for delivery orders. Ordered delivery tonight and most of the items missing from the order, tiny amount of beef, no guac, no sour cream, no chips, tiny amount of rice too. They used to be great, but wouldn’t recommend this anymore. Made a complaint about the order and was basically told “sorry, can’t do anything”

13/12/2025: Really tasty burrito, great service! Lucy was super nice and makes a mean burrito also.

31/10/2025: Great venue. Was there for the Lost Sunday Skalloween ska and reggae event which was brilliant. The Last Lane venue allowed for different acts to be performing at the same time, like the DJ in one section and live band in another. Highly recommend both Lost Lane and the Lost Sunday gig.

31/08/2025: I’ve come many times already. I have allergies and they’re always super careful and nice. And the food tastes delicious. I was attended by Sarah and Carol

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.

26/01/2026: I did not enjoy my experience here at all. For starters, it looks very grimy/dingy as you go up the stairs. Not clean, with chipboard shoddily nailed to the banister. The DIY looks very haphazard. I could have done a better job myself. This spot itself is certainly very popular, we went in and it was absolutely mobbed…. with children. I can only liken it to a crèche! The age demographic appeared to be 17-20, and potentially below 17. I saw an inebriated girl in there and in my opinion she definitely looked 15. Queued for ages for a drink as my other half wanted to have one there, I’d have happily left. No way were there enough staff to serve all of those customers. Also, while queuing, several very insecure little girls with fake everything; personality, hair, eyelashes, tan, Chanel bags etc, thinking they are Fergie from the black eyed peas, cut into the queue because they feel super entitled and superior to everyone else, causing even more delays to get a drink. Couldn’t get a seat then for love or money. Not for me. They do a very nice cocktail though! One star for the drinks!! ⭐ (Not worth the 30+ minute queue for them though!)

26/01/2026: Not as hip as it once was, but still a cool bar. A little cold in the winter as the rooms are so large especially when their is not a lot of people in.

01/08/2025: Disappointed with my order from Bell Pepper, Kimmage I work as a delivery driver, so I know how to handle food properly to avoid leaks or spills. This time, I ordered for myself via pick-up — a soup and a spice bag. Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. When I got home I saw that the soup was already leaking underneath, I did put it in the termal bag with support, to do not leak but still, and it didn’t taste good at all. The spice bag was shockingly small for the price, and most of the potatoes inside were undercooked and few pieces of chicken. On top of that, it was extremely spicy — far beyond what I’ve experienced before. I’ve had plenty of spice bags from other places and they’ve been amazing, but this was the first time I ordered from Bell Pepper in Kimmage, and sadly, it will also be the last. Very disappointed. I would not recommend.

18/07/2025: Ordered a thai green curry and jasmine rice for delivery, food came well before the estimated delivery time, was piping hot and most importantly tasted delicious, excellent job, would highly recommend this place 😋

25/08/2025: Delicious coffee and croissants - Raul is a great host

04/10/2025: I used to have a 5 star review on this place, however yesterday they completely ignored my dietary requirements and put mayo on my burguer. This is serious because i can’t eat egg. They refused to refund.

29/09/2025: I had this recommended by someone I usually trust on Instagram but was thoroughly disappointed. The buns are dry and quite hard, the pattys lack a proper Maillard crust while having several tendons in them. The burger tasted of something I can best describe as fish sauce (?). The staff was friendly though but I can't recommend a visit here, unfortunately.

20/08/2025: We had food and drinks couldn't have asked for any better great service aswell from Jeremy highly recommend

26/07/2025: Lovely place, quiz night is a lot of fun

16/07/2025: Ordered a acai bowl which had mould fruits. When we complained the server just removed the mouldy fruit and said it is fine to eat now. Not sure if they practise any hygiene in there. If you don’t want to get food poisoning than avoid this place.

25/06/2025: just love the place... the halloumi wrap is just to die for

15/10/2025: Nice place, very pleasant atmosphere, delicious beverage and really friendly staff. I really enjoyed being there.

08/10/2025: “Relaxed, welcoming and delicious — everything you want in a park café!” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An absolute gem in Herbert Park! I have been coming to Lolly and Cooks for years for their amazing coffee and sweet treats — but lunch here is next-level delicious. The fresh salads made by Christina were bursting with flavour, and I even bought extra for home! The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. My toddler loves their cosy kids’ corner with books and toys — it’s the perfect family-friendly café to relax after a play in the park. Beautiful food, great coffee, and such a lovely atmosphere every time. 🌿☕🥗

05/02/2026: Good pizza. Bad kebab. Customers good.

23/12/2025: Good pizza but very unprofessional stuff that changes too often,not worth going

17/08/2025: Great food. Spotless clean. Great view

22/02/2026: I love the Malaysian vegetarian tofu curry here, flavours are delicious but I don’t find the sushi options like the rolls and maki dishes taste super fresh. A little disappointing on the sushi front but love the curry !

05/02/2026: We purposely drive here to get Sushi because the meals are fresh and delicious. One of the best Sushi we have had to date.

25/05/2025: No matter how I think about it, the taste is not worthy of the price.

16/05/2025: Incredible burger, staff and atmosphere.
