The best restaurants in Dublin

21/05/2025: Take away. Disappointed as very little veg in the dish which was vegetarian An awful lot of noodles Carrots thinly grated and not much more veg. Delivery charge at nearly 5 euros is too high for a short trip

19/05/2025: The vegan spice bag was delicious as always, 11/10!!

20/05/2025: Order beef short rib and seafood chowder. Amazing!!

18/05/2025: fish and chips was perfect. the atmosphere is perfect. 23.50 eur may 2025

05/05/2025: Very nice people , good service and very quickly ! Recommend to everyone

26/03/2025: Best pizza around, delicious, and firewood baked freshly produced

13/06/2025: Stopped into O’Brien’s for a quick breakfast and left with a full belly, clean hands, and deep respect for a spotless bathroom. I went for the cream cheese and bacon bagel — a classic combo that rarely fails. It was almost perfect, though the bagel itself was just a tad undercooked. A little on the doughy side, like it panicked halfway through baking and gave up. Still tasty though — cream cheese covers a multitude of sins. Staff were lovely: friendly but chill, the kind of people who’ll greet you warmly but won’t judge you for scrolling on your phone with one hand and demolishing a bagel with the other. Tea was grand. The whole lot came in under a tenner, which in Dublin is practically a miracle. Throw in a pristine bathroom (seriously, it was so clean I briefly considered moving in), and you’ve got yourself a great little breakfast spot. Would return. Might even bring the bagel a pep talk next time.

27/05/2025: Loved this place. Came in with a group of five and everyone thought it was great. I had the triple-decker Chipotle and it was really good. Extremely friendly staff. Highly recommended!

09/05/2025: Excellent coffee, the cookies are great too 🙂

26/06/2025: Lovely place owner very nice but one member of staff named jess not very welcoming

07/06/2025: Experience is super cool. Music is also up zo par

26/05/2025: Was in late Saturday around 12.45am. Ordered a bacon hotdog advertised as €12.45 but was charged €13.70. Rang today and was informed there was a 10% late fee but I was not notified of this at any point which is fine if it’s there policy. Was sat on the right of the staff door and the woman who served us couldn’t have been any ruder and gave me and my friends horrible dirty looks.

13/06/2025: Chicken tenders, scallops and a garlic sauce. heaven

27/05/2025: Rude staff, even if you try to speak proper English they answer you with condescension.

01/06/2025: To expensive for weak, very sweet cocktail and the food isn’t tasty.

31/05/2025: Disappointed with the bottomless brunch. The “cocktails” were awful - consisting of syrup and prosecco. The food was terrible. Only 3 breakfast options and the eggs benny was a small cold slice of Serrano ham on a dry English muffin. We had some potatoes on the side which were decent but nothing special. One persons meal came out and then another 10 minutes went by before the other 2 dinners meals came out. This brunch cost us 55 euros each with a 12.5% service charge. One of the biggest rip offs I’ve encountered. Save your money and go elsewhere.

27/02/2025: I got a donut and coffee before a bus tour leaving nearby. I appreciate that the shop is open at 0630 even on a Sunday. The donut was fresh and the coffee was delicious. I went back a couple of times during my week.

05/02/2025: Bonitos dulces en las ventanas, no puedes resistirte a todo. Tantos donuts, que no es fácil elegir, todos son tentadores. Te gustaría volver

28/05/2025: Elaine is great always has the chats with the customers

23/04/2025: Decent, decent. The bubbly scuttery spice bag is bangingg, cheers chungs 🙏

06/06/2025: I had high hopes for Shanai, given its promise of authentic Indian flavours, but unfortunately, the experience fell flat. The food was underwhelming – lacking the bold spices and richness you’d expect from Indian cuisine. Dishes tasted bland and uninspired, missing the depth and warmth that define a good Indian meal. Service was equally lacklustre, with staff seeming disengaged and the overall atmosphere failing to make up for the culinary shortcomings. Compared to other Indian restaurants in Dublin that deliver on both flavour and hospitality, Shanai simply doesn’t hold up. If you’re looking for an authentic and flavourful Indian dining experience, there are certainly better options elsewhere in the city.

06/06/2025: What a terrible experience! The staff were extremely unwelcoming. We ordered a set meal that included a starter, a main course, and a dessert. The starter portions were ridiculously small—just a tiny piece of each item. The main course was also disappointing, with barely any meat in the dish; it was mostly sauce. And for dessert, there was no choice at all—just ice cream. We considered ordering an extra dessert, but after checking the menu, we found nothing interesting—and none of the options were Indian, which was surprising. To make matters worse, the cutlery were extremely old and poorly cleaned, which made the whole experience feel even more unpleasant. When my ice cream arrived, they gave me a teaspoon to eat it, showing a total lack of attention to detail from the staff. As for the food itself, it was overly sweet and completely lacking in seasoning—nothing like authentic Indian cuisine. Honestly, it was the worst restaurant meal I've ever had. I would never recommend this place to anyone looking for good food and decent service.

20/05/2025: Good pints and good pool table near tv screens with sports on. Can't go wrong 😁

20/04/2025: Best pint of Carlsberg in Ireland

12/04/2025: In the current circumstances, the owners here have done everything possible to make their premises safe, with clear signage and appropriate screening in place - the food is great too!

08/03/2025: most grim takeaway of my life, pizza so under cooked it stuck to the box, it was only held together by the inches of cheese on top, most appetising part of the meal was the pepperoni. we ordered onion rings and only 2 came in a portion, these were undercooked and had about 7 layers of onion, on the inside you can see there’s raw batter, also came drowned in grease. the chips were bendy and undercooked. overall a rank takeaway i would never eat her again please save yourself.

22/02/2025: Worse service waiting for delivery got a call said he was outside nobody was there then he rang again said he was outside nobody was there told them we don't want it it will be cold by the time we get it how hard is it to find a house

06/01/2025: Great food great place staff so so nice best food and great sevice thank you
