The best restaurants in Dublin

31/08/2025: A great pub and the staff are chatty.

30/08/2025: Wonderful pizzas. The best was the one with shrimp, meats, and cheese.

01/02/2026: I had been there more than ten years ago. It has been a pleasure to find out that the place has not changed. Lovely place, delicious food and friendly staff.

25/01/2026: Excellent food, friendly service with a smile.

13/10/2025: Lovely place and delicious breakfast

09/10/2025: I like this place. I've eaten here before and I'll eat here again. I've recommended it before also and I'll do so again. But PLEASE PLEASE remember that NOT everyone thinks rocket is an acceptable substitute for lettuce! I absolutely HATE rocket. It's the most disgusting excuse of a green around. It has such a deadening taste on any plate. MOREOVER, if your menu says LETTUCE and you order a Bacon LETTUCE, Avocado & Tomato sandwich, there should be NO rocket on the plate at all! And there should be some lettuce at least. AND hopefully more than the smidgen of tomato & avocado you put on this sandwich! If you have no lettuce please tell customers or call it a BRAT instead of a BLAT!

23/01/2026: For a pint it’s a good place, but the food it’s awful

24/12/2025: Walked in at 11am on Christmas Eve with my wife and two kids. While it was Christmas Eve the pub was not yet at its usual busy trade. This was the reason we arrived at 11am to enjoy a couple pre lunch drinks and There were two small tables free down stairs on the left which we organised and pushed together. Despite two staff members walking by with no issue but the then, just as we had ourselves sorted a tall, slim grey haired bar man then came out, looked us up and down and said “you can’t do that” and walked back in behind the bar leaving us standing there with 2 kids a folded buggy and shopping bags. We had to just leave. While we understood that they want to keep their set up we would have expected some decency and basic customer service to assist us especially with the cost of food and beverage in Dublin these days. Awful 10min experience which is a pity as it would be a pub we would frequent a bit when in town….possibly never again.

12/01/2026: Excellent Indian restaurant! The food is so good, and I discovered so many new flavors. I ordered a dish with goat meat, which was excellent, and their cheese naan is superb! The decor is beautiful! The service is very good.

06/01/2026: The best Indian restaurant in Dublin! We went for the tasting menu and while very pricey compared to other Indian restaurants in the city, it is well worth it. Each dish is executed flawlessly, particularly the duck and lamb. The service was so friendly and accommodating, with each dish explained in detail. I think this restaurant is well deserving of its success thus far and I will definitely visit again in the future as the flavour is absolutely unrivalled to anywhere I've tried previously.

18/09/2025: After indulging a bit too much in bar food and BBQ yesterday, I craved veggies. Chopped saved me today with a delicious salad bowl and service that put a smile on my face. I even got a wrap for dinner later.

06/09/2025: I recently visited this café and was genuinely impressed. The atmosphere is warm and inviting—perfect for catching up with friends, working on a laptop, or simply relaxing with a book. The décor is tastefully done, striking the right balance between cozy and modern. The coffee was excellent—smooth, rich, and clearly made with care. I ordered a cappuccino and it came out with beautiful latte art, which was a nice touch. The menu also had a great variety of pastries and light bites; I tried the almond croissant and it was flaky, buttery, and absolutely delicious. What really stood out, though, was the service. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made me feel genuinely welcome. It’s clear they take pride in what they do. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a quality café experience. I’ll definitely be coming back

11/01/2026: Ordered through Just Eat, rider said he was outside and wasn’t, said that he could see me though - wouldn’t come to the door. Called to tell them all of this and they couldn’t give a toss.

06/01/2026: Take away order, collection. Absolutely stunning meal tonight from Thamel. Best meal deal in the area by far! In terms of quality, portion sizes and most of all TASTE! and not forgetting value for money! .. Poppadoms and dips, starter (chicken tikka), main course (lamb saag), pilau rice and a coke zero, all for €21. I'm blown away! Can't fault a single thing .. if you haven't tried Thamel yet, you're missing out! 💯 Recommend!

17/01/2026: Excellent menu, relaxed ambience, really good coffee, great food, service so-so (our tea was completely forgotten about and I had to repeat my order several times and point to menu items as staff couldn't understand - basic order, nothing extraordinary). Still, I would return

12/01/2026: We were served by a girl who spoke Spanish and she was wonderful. We felt very welcome.

30/12/2025: Really nice cozy pub. Rumour has it you can sometimes see Colin Farrell there. Didn't seem him, there. 😅 Cherrs 🍻

15/12/2025: Irish pub, very large and typically warm. Nice family atmosphere in the evenings. There are six rooms, located just above the main building, but they're still quite well soundproofed. They don't serve breakfast in the morning, but there are other places nearby.

23/01/2026: Pizzeria with typical good pizzas, well made, with a multitude of varieties and ingredients. Delicious, flavorful, and generous portions.

18/01/2026: Considering the price, the dish was disappointing: both the quality and the quantity were lacking! Furthermore, the waitress wasn't very friendly. At the end of the meal, the dessert menu was placed on the table without any prompting to ask if we wanted dessert, which I found rather abrupt. Finally, when it came time to pay, a tip suggestion appeared on the card reader without any explanation. Unfortunately, I pressed it randomly. The tip would have been gladly given under other circumstances, but given the reception, it was done reluctantly.

07/01/2026: This place is the best for ramen! Such great value for money, I ordered the seafood ramen and had so much fish😁 Podge was a pleasure to have as our waiter, such a lovely and welcoming person thank you for making an amazing meal even better!

07/01/2026: A spur of the moment dinner which left us impressed with value for money and happy to enjoy a Dublin institution. After work, we wandered in and were seated quickly in front of the windows with a view of George's St. The service was impeccable and friendly. I ordered the Chicken Katsu Curry and my partner the Regular Dinner Bento. We were very pleasantly surprised with what came out, the curry was delicious with a generous breaded chicken breast on top of steamed rice and served with a luscious curry sauce. Pickles and a cabbage salad on the side brings freshness and crunch. His bento was even more impressive, lamb curry, teriyaki haddock and huge pieces of cod karaage with the usual bento accompaniment of sushi, miso soup, rice and salads. I hadn't been in such a long time and it's wonderful to be pleasantly surprised by an old favourite.

07/01/2026: A classic Irish pub with a long history and authenticity. A huge, beautiful, and welcoming place. The food is excellent, some of the best I've had in all the pubs I've visited across Ireland.

07/01/2026: Excellent food in a traditional Irish pub with years of history. The atmosphere is great, and the place is huge and beautiful.

10/08/2025: An unpretentious vegan Lebanese restaurant with a casual, fast-food-style atmosphere, but excellent food. I'm a huge fan of baba ganoush, and I have to say the one I've ever had in a restaurant is the best, and that alone is worth five stars. The other dishes I ordered were also excellent, and the staff was young and friendly. They don't serve alcohol.

07/08/2025: Great vegan options. The falafel sandwiches are amazing and taste superb, some of the best I've had,unfortunately the bread wasn't quite as good. Would still wholeheartedly recommend this place for any vegan.

24/12/2025: A labyrinth of flavour. Who knew chips could hit the spot this hard.

24/12/2025: Much to name sake: the spot was hit. Delicious chips on what could be described as a beautiful christmas eve. Merry Christmas one and all. Yuletide.

25/10/2025: Really nice pub, worth a visit. Away from the chaos of Temple Bar. Much more reasonable prices. Toast and Guinness €10.

22/10/2025: Lorna and Ger are some of the most amazing staff I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Bibi made me the best toastie I've ever had in Dublin. We won't mention Steve but all in all great establishment! highly recommend and I'll certainly be back!
