The best restaurants in Dublin

08/09/2025: What can I say its butlers best chocolate in the world

27/07/2025: Lovely coffee especially after the renovation There's enough room for more customers

11/10/2025: Staff very Friendly. Food Fabulous. Would highly recommend Vincenzos Takeaway to anybody...

11/10/2025: At the heart of the community serving locals for the last 30 plus years the finest fresh fish & chips to a simple cup of tea or coffee this takeaway or sit down takeaway has it all under one roof 👍🏻

28/09/2025: When the staff shout at a customer across the room there is a problem. Serious hospitality training required here. With only one till they are a limited operation. Not a good experience. Go up to Shoe Lane or Two Beans and do yourself a favour.

03/09/2025: For some staff everything is more important than serving customers

08/10/2025: Very good food, the menu changes everyday. Prices are alright for the portion you get. I got the morrocon chicken tenders with couscous which was 7 euro and it was so refreshing and nice. The queue was quite long though and many of the seats were taken up

06/10/2025: The overall experience is positive but there is a lot of food and service quality issues here. The food ranges from good to poor and it's like a lotto depending on which chef is working. The catering staff are inexperienced, some of them have no idea how to prepare food so you sometimes get very sloppy serving and inconsistent portion size depending on who is serving you so there is no "standard". The final thing is, and usually it would be fine but considering this is a food business in a university catering to students, it's terrible that they are earning tens of thousands a day from students but yet still charge .30 cent fee for takeout boxes + .50 cent for wooden cutlery with every purchase!

19/10/2025: With group of 17 people, I visited this travelling all the way 1hour from Newbridge because local Indians told good Indian food is served in restaurant owned & run by Bangladeshi. Though I was bit reluctant because of Bangladeshi angle told by people but found to be quite better than many restaurants run in the name of Indian restaurants in Ireland by Pakistanis & Bangladeshi. Alu Tikki chat, Samosa Chat , Paneer cuisines, Dal tadka, other veg dishes , Roti, Naan, Biryani etc were good and tasty and didn’t disappoint as normally happened with restaurants branded as Indian restaurants in Ireland, UK. I chose Keema Pav for myself and I was highly satisfied with taste and content & I just forgot my apprehension that I had before visiting restaurants. Serve was good and serving staff took well care of us. Suggest do visit for better experience.

05/10/2025: There is a new menu, and from what we were told a new chef. There is also a severe price hike when dishes went from ~20 to ~25 with clearly no improvement on the quantity or quality. This is strangely correlated with the opening of a Pakistani restaurant across the road. Also the lady serving us tonight was… not great. Anyway, this is all very disappointing. We used to come regularly, tonight was the last time.

05/09/2025: food was nice but staff are very rude and unhelpful

24/08/2025: food is not very fresh unfortunately

25/06/2025: The food is to cold when receive order.

14/02/2025: Have to say my last review i was a bit harsh with these lads but they are amazen food is great the staff are nice can't wait to order again tanks for amazen service

29/09/2025: Lovely selection of coffees and food. Very friendly staff!

13/06/2025: Great little spot highly recommended 👌

10/08/2025: Warning for travellers looking for a nice coffee, avoid this place. Google maps suggested here for a coffee for us on our journey. After ordering a cappuccino and latte and waiting over 10min I was handed what I can only describe as what looked like 2 half cups of muck! When I asked which is the cappuccino I was told they are both basically the same, they are instant coffee! They used instant coffee and warmed milk in the microwave and that's what we got, with a lovely layer of milk skin on the top of it might I add! I paid 7e for this and regret accepting it, we drank 3 sips, found the milk skin, felt ill and threw away the rest, it was honestly the worst coffee we have ever had. What annoyed me most was I wasn't told this when I ordered. I worked as a waitress and I would always tell my customers that ordered decaff coffee that we only had instant and if that is OK with them. (We had coffee machines with regular coffee for those who didnt want to drink nor pay (3.50) for a watery instant coffee u get free in a sachet in hotel rooms!). I expect transparency at the very least as a customer when ordering.

10/08/2025: We stumbled across this place as we were traveling round the area and ordered the half portion dinner's which were delicious and very good value. Would highly recommend the food in this little gem.

26/09/2025: Very small portions especially the kids meals

20/09/2025: Food is excellent. Very tasty and great value. I've been searching for a good Indian in the Dublin 1, Dublin 3 area as I've moved into the area recently and this is the best I've found. Chicken Tikka Masala is great, the chicken always very tender. Highly recommend

03/08/2025: We were not allowed to enter because one of my friends was wearing sportswear, we all have normal jobs and were intending to have a pint. DISCRIMINATION based on appearance. Shame and disrespect together with rudeness from the manager. At the same time security manager was smoking vape while talking to us (apparently it was ok according to their policies). The lowest hospitality standard I saw in Dublin.

18/07/2025: Just illegal behaviour, not allowing me to pay cash that the ATM gave me 'just because'. It is illegal to refuse taking cahs, that, and I was refused to be served when I told them. I'm not surprised that the previous company that owned that place went bankrupt. I wanted to buy drinks and pay, and I was refused because of using a 100 euro.

19/07/2025: Me and my partner came here on Thursday , the Bouncers wore extremely friendly and nice and the atmosphere was great but unfortunately an extremely rude bar person is the reason why I will never go again, I was waiting at the bar for at least 10 minutes and he eventually turned around to me and said he doesn’t serve my kind, then continued to serve everyone else, will not be returning.

18/07/2025: It's a shame that in a place with such a good vibe and even better entertainment, there are such arrogant bouncers who yell in your face for leaving your bag somewhere you didn't know you weren't allowed to leave it. They even touched my belongings without permission—really awful behavior.

04/10/2025: Poor/Disrespectful Service I was there, and the service was terrible. It was a cold day, with several girls at the table getting cold from the wind. It took over 25 minutes to turn on the heater. They turned it on gradually, but they didn't even notice where we were. It was disrespectful. I asked if it was broken, and they said it wasn't, but they didn't. It took a while to clear the plates, and because it was a large table 12 people, the waitresses seemed to disappear. I don't recommend it...

07/09/2025: All came together perfect food was wonderful. My only knock was the parking. Otherwise I enjoyed every moment.

13/10/2025: Highly recommend this snack! Super crispy wafer rolls! The white chocolate part is sweeter. Dangerously moreish!

17/09/2025: Always a good vibe here! there’s a Turkish lad working who’s great craic, always having a laugh. Don’t know his name, but he’s sound. Lately the meat’s been really fresh too, hope it stays that way! but the fruit and veg often look a bit old. Would be great if there was more care put into that. Also, the prices are fairly steep.

04/10/2025: Absolutely beautiful food and great service 👌

12/09/2025: I've eaten in Howard's in Rathgar prior to Covid and Howard's in Churchtowm for Many years. The restaurant in Churchtown offers great food and offers an all day Breakfast which is great Value. The owners Declan and Majella are always on hand. The restaurant offers daily specials and excellent food. Staff are always very pleasant. I would definitely recommend visiting Howard's.
