The best restaurants in Dublin

26/10/2026: This is a down to earth low cost restaurant. It has a varied menu of simple everyday food with good sized portions at reasonable prices.

17/10/2026: Superb prices, plenty of food to choose from . Recommend to everyone

23/10/2026: food is amazing, workers are kind and professional, the best prices near biomedical institute and business school

30/07/2026: never opens on time. Waited outside for 15min but staff did not come out when it was supposed to be open

11/08/2026: Quick service, good coffee, and is very well-located (being close to the Jervis Luas stop).

17/07/2026: It’s really good nice chairs 🪑 and hot chocolate ☕️ nice place for you ✨

25/09/2026: RUN AWAY, YOU POOR FOOLS!! An hour's wait at a barely cleaned, unset table in the cold, only to be told it would take another 20/25 minutes to get our meal.

28/07/2026: I mentioned that the price of the rice wasn't explained beforehand and that the dishes were extremely unpalatable. The restaurant showed no remorse or apology whatsoever; instead, they desperately tried to justify themselves. So please, everyone, don't go there unless you want to be abused and subjected to inhumane treatment.

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.

07/10/2026: The foods is top tier especially the fish box. The staff are what really make it excellent tho ! Mae and Petra served me and they are a breath of fresh are so friendly and warm

23/08/2026: Been a long time since I got a proper sized portion of chips, nice burger too, recommended 👌 😋

07/10/2026: Dear KFC Customer Service, I am writing to make a complaint about my recent order. I ordered a meal that was supposed to include 10 pieces of chicken wings. However, when I got home and checked my order, I found that there were only 8 chicken wings in the box. I am very disappointed and honestly quite angry about this. I paid for 10 pieces, so I expect to receive the full amount that I ordered and paid for. It is frustrating to get home and discover that two pieces are missing, especially when I have already left the restaurant. I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and provide an appropriate refund or compensation for the 2 missing chicken wings. Please let me know how you intend to resolve this issue. Kind regards, Darren

05/10/2026: Fairly busy as we were a group of 11. Seated all together. Staff friendly

30/09/2026: Absolutely disgusting service. I ordered food from you and, once again, items were missing from my order. I tried calling at least 50 times, and nobody bothered to answer the phone. You literally have ONE job: to put together an order correctly, and somehow you still can’t manage to do that despite getting paid to do it. How difficult can it possibly be to check that everything is actually in the bag before handing it over? What makes this even more frustrating is that this is NOT the first time. No matter which McDonald’s I order from or go into, the same thing seems to happen. Missing items, incorrect orders, and absolutely no effort to fix the problem afterwards. Is this the standard you have been instructed to provide, or are you simply hiring staff who are completely unqualified, careless and don’t give a damn about customers? Because there is clearly a serious problem with the way your orders are being handled. I am absolutely done ordering from McDonald’s. You have lost me as a customer, and I will certainly be making sure that the people around me know exactly what kind of service they can expect. You still own me €8. Thanks for nothing!

28/09/2026: Really cozy McDonald's. Food and staff great.

24/10/2026: This is what I expect from this type of "restaurant": fast, fair price, no complaints about the quantity, and the food is still good.

25/09/2026: Great spice bag, especially after a few pints!

12/09/2026: G0t a takeaway from the Phibsborough branch and the staff did not put the whole order into the bag, and I only knew when I got home. When I returned to the shop they refused to replace.my chips which would have.bwen stone cold by the time I arrived back with the burger they had forgotten to put in the bag in the first place. What a stellar example of customer service. Never will i darken their door again

06/09/2026: Here with kids a few times, decent service, and food served fast.

05/08/2026: Highly recommended, very good quality products

30/07/2026: Parking is the only criticism- great store

13/09/2026: The staff is unable to make a simple coffee or cappuccino. I’m not used to write bad reviews but it is happening all the time.

07/09/2026: Dear Insomnia Carpenterstown Team, I would like to take a moment to share how happy I am with the service at your Carpenterstown café. I am a regular customer and I am always so impressed by how friendly, kind and welcoming all the girls are. The café is always clean, tidy and beautifully looked after, which makes every visit a real pleasure. I usually come with my children, and I honestly feel that the half an hour we spend together there, surrounded by such lovely staff and a warm atmosphere, is my little daily moment of relaxation. Having my coffee every day in such a wonderful place has become something I genuinely look forward to. I would especially like to mention one wonderful member of your team, Aneta. She is always smiling, incredibly friendly and helpful, and she makes every visit even more enjoyable. Her kindness and positive attitude really make a difference. Thank you to the whole team for creating such a lovely atmosphere and for always making us feel welcome. You are doing a fantastic job, and I just wanted you to know how much it is appreciated. Warmest regards, Alicja

30/08/2026: This was the default go to place for my housemates and I during the 2 years we were in the area. Can't say we've ever been disappointed with the food. We like our food spicy so when we asked if they could make it extra spicy for us they very kindly obliged and did so each time. Our favourites are the village bag, the munchie box and the house special fried rice. The staff are very friendly and after a while remembered us by name and our usual order so that was nice.

15/06/2026: We are not from around but stopped on our way from Greystones. The food was very fresh, very tasty and very quick. We shared a meal A and there was plenty in it for 2 people. The curry is unbelievable, probably the nicest we have tried. Will definitely return again.

25/09/2026: yummy yummy brown sugar boba with tapioca pearls and coconut jelly!! good price and very friendly staff

27/08/2026: I had a bubble tea and chicken teriyaki and the bubble tea was great. It was tasty and refreshing. The food was only „okay“ the teriyaki sauce was too salty and the chicken didn‘t taste that special. It also didn‘t feel fresh and I guess it‘s just reheated food. The server was kind. The ambience was okay but not my taste

12/11/2026: Was looking for a delivery order,i was waiting for 1h 30 minutes,then,they just cancelled the order

09/11/2026: Food is always cold and waiting ages on it too. Also, always check ur bag b4 leaving drive thru window as stuff is always missing 😕
