The best restaurants in Dublin

20/11/2025: Lady behind the counter is extremely rude I pass by this coffee shop and I ask for cake and coffee + sandwich I regret to go to that place coffee shop . Extremely rude customer service must of the stuff was rude . Bad experience never go again there . Lady behind the counter. look like owner or manager she is rude face and no smile no respect customer . I’m glad See that truth colour of this place . Never go again . Give rate to this place 0

11/09/2025: Staff are extremely rude. Lady at the counter has a chip on her shoulder and takes it out on the customers

24/05/2026: Back here again this evening. Owner is a gent. Place still a solid 5 out of 5

09/05/2026: *Portions reduced *Macros questionable Received our order and noticed only 6 small/medium pieces of chicken and the rest was full of vegetables in both portions. I called thinking this was a genuine error but I was advised they now weigh their Chicken. That leads me to question the marcos displayed that's advertised to suit healthy option/ gym enthusiasts as they are the same as previous size portions. I advised I order weekly and I wouldnt be ordering again if that's going to be the case but they just finished the call with nothing more to add other than its now weighed. Although the quality is good the quantity doesn't reflect the price. Customers should be advised of this new menu concept and their macros updated as unfair for people counting protein/kcals.

11/02/2026: Bad smells in store, tables are dirty.

22/01/2026: Probably the best Starbucks in Dublin. Very chill atmosphere with decent coffee and fast wi-fi. The Staff are Friendly and helpful, especially the American barista.

21/11/2025: The worst taro milk tea I have ever tasted, it was just straight up milk. The server was kind enough to add more taro powder but still it tasted just of milk.

27/09/2025: I'm a seasoned Taro drinker and this places Taro boba was really bad. The milk was watered down and very little Taro was used in the drink. Go somewhere else folks there are other lovely boba places in Dublin.

06/06/2026: Awful pizza, dreadful sauce and base.

23/04/2026: Service in the Ballyboden/RathfarnhamPizza Hut has been declining steadily for many years. Yesterday when I dropped in there was one person working there. Yes, 1 person taking orders, answering the phone, taking payments, making pizzas, cooking and boxing food. Really the place should have been closed up from a health and safety point of view but you guys wouldn't pass up a days profits of course. Therein lies the problem, cutting corners to increase profits and the customer then is the victim. I may return once more, but if it's not a drastic improvement on yesterdays 30 minutes for a pizza then I will be gone for good.

20/12/2025: Pretty sure I got food poisoning from this place last night. Delightful.

09/11/2025: We went there twice in a row and were very satisfied each time.

01/07/2026: The food was fresh, tasty, and served quickly. Customer service was good, specially the girl serving us was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful.

19/06/2026: Great takeaway, very friendly staff

13/04/2026: Lovely food most of time thay dont use fresh chilli its dry one would give u 3rd degree bruns one is a nuf thay put 20 or more Iv noticed thay new drivers indin kinda lada thay never bring little change to ur door if o u 1 or 2 have to go car so u let them go.SCAM

02/04/2026: the spicebag is one of my favorites needs a bit more chicken in it but besides that great

21/03/2026: How are you I just placed order for 5 people and I just got a spice box with a curry sauce and there was literally 4 pieces of chicken and the rest chips I’m really disappointed since I order from here all the time

12/04/2026: Order from here frequently and it's always good but this time the service was awful. 10 minutes waiting on the phone and then ordered Singapore fried rice and crispy shredded beef (among other things). The lad on the phone called it back to me correctly. The order was collected by a family member and when they arrived it was Singapore noodles and Normal beef (not crispy and mostly vegetables). Mistakes happen but I called to let the lad on the phone know and he said "I called it back to you" trying to put the blame on me. He called back my correct order. Food is good when it's the right order and the staff are normally great but this time it was very bad.

03/04/2026: Ordered a delivery for a 4in1 with Shredded chicken and the chicken tasted and smelled like fish. Rang the shop and the woman on the phone was so rude and cheeky. She told me they don’t have any fish products in the shop which is a lie as there are prawns on the menu. She then said “well what do you want me to do about it” in a very cheeky tone and stated that she hasn’t had any other complaints about it. I told her I can send the food back if she doesn’t believe me and she said make sure I get there before they close knowing I had ordered for delivery and no way to get to the shop. She then said she will assess the food first and then decide if they will refund me my money (she did refund in the end after going back and forth). The customer service from this worker was awful. I usually only order from here but I’m not sure I would recommend it now after this woman’s attitude.

08/05/2026: Was super hungry & ordered katsu fries online. Specifically asked for a good amount of curry sauce in the fries. The order was an hour late & had ZERO sauce. Not ordering here again. The temple bar branch is really good though.

03/04/2026: The amount of food compared to the price was really small, and was not the tastiest.

11/03/2026: Very good food and customer service

01/03/2026: Their food is nice but unfortunately it took two full hours exactly for our order to arrive last night. Their phone was constantly engaged, when it did eventually arrive at 9.45 there wasn't even an apology. We order many takeaways from Kimmage and Terenure and unfortunately Mr Chen is the only place that we've ever had these disastrous delivery experiences. That was out last time ordering there.

02/06/2026: The burgers were of very poor quality. The beef patties were completely overcooked and burnt, and the cheese was not even melted. The food looked and tasted as if no care had been taken in its preparation. To make matters worse, we were charged extra for 1 small portion of mayonnaise that we requested, despite already paying for our meals. This felt unreasonable and disappointing. both my son and I felt unwell for the rest of the evening and had a very unpleasant night afterwards. Overall, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences we have had. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place.

17/05/2026: The hamburger was little even if I order a large one. The other things are Good! It's a must have a card to pay there.

03/06/2026: Very nice place....very traditional irish pub....lovely people and staff are very friendly...really recomend this place..👍

02/03/2026: Used to drop in there now and again over the years and it was ok. Then a few years ago it was being run by I'm not sure who but it was a trendy sort of bar and was very pleasant. The latest incarnation is however a slide down the scale from pleasant to ugggh. Visited the other day around 4pm. The table we sat at was not clean - sticky beer stains all over it; Its not like the place was so busy basic table management was not possible. I counted 11 other customers in the place Sat on a low stool (thankfully) and fell off leaving me on the floor - turns out the seat was not attached to the base - I mean seriously ‽ There are better places in the area to spend your money so don't waste it here.

22/09/2025: Great food and service with very reasonable prices, worth a visit for something to eat

27/07/2025: Place is gone to the dogs lucky not to close down soon
