The best restaurants in Dublin

19/04/2026: Very small portions considering cost. Staff are friendly and helpful.

24/01/2026: Very poor experience. We were given a voucher as a gift to use at this restaurant. We arrived to the Gibson at 7.45 for our reservation at that time - got seated etc. We got our menus and waited for someone to come back to take our order or even drinks order. We had to get someone’s attention (at this stage it was after 8pm). She came back to us and asked us if we wanted “the good news or the bad news”. She told us the bad news was the kitchen is now closed (??) so we can’t order but she can bring us to the bar and we can use our voucher there. I told her i thought this was absolutely outrageous because someone just sat us down and never told us about having to order before 8, nor did anyone try to get our order in before the deadline, and she said she agreed with me but that she wasn’t the person who greeted us at the start. Food in the bar was fine. We eventually got our first drink at 8.30 - 45 mins after we arrived. When the bill came they knew nothing about our gift voucher which we handed to the initial lady, and they had to go searching around for her and the voucher. We couldn’t help but laugh at how poorly this night had gone. If you’re getting dinner in the area before a concert, would recommend Ruby’s, the Mayson or Cill Airne over this establishment.

25/05/2026: Very disappointing experience at The Bagel Bar café in Omni Shopping Centre. If you’re a person of colour, be prepared to feel unwelcome. Some of the senior staff were rude, dismissive, and made us feel uncomfortable with their attitude and eye-rolling throughout our visit. This was our fourth time visiting, and every single time it has been uncomfortable. Today we ended up going there because O’Brien’s toaster wasn’t working. We spent around €30 and honestly left feeling upset rather than relaxed. The bagels were average, and the coffee was just okay — definitely not worth the experience. Good customer service and basic respect should be for everyone. Sadly, this kind of rude behaviour seems to be becoming more common in Dublin lately.

09/05/2026: I visited this café early in the morning while waiting for a nearby car service appointment. The café had not opened yet, and I sat quietly in the seating area intending to have breakfast and coffee once they opened. A staff member approached me and informed me that the seating area was private before opening hours. I completely understand that businesses have their own rules and procedures. However, I found the interaction unnecessarily unfriendly and dismissive, especially considering I intended to become a customer. The situation could have been handled with a little more courtesy and professionalism. Unfortunately, the experience left a negative first impression.

01/07/2026: Do not order from them. It is a scam. Our food never arrived

22/03/2026: Avoid this Chinese at all costs!!! Wish I could give this lower than 1 star. Used to order from here about a year ago and loved the shredded chicken, ordered again for the first time since and the chicken is completely different to before. It was disgusting, stringy, purple????and completely raw - it went straight in the bin it was inedible, I genuinely don’t know how they can serve food like that. Afterwards I came and looked at the other reviews because I actually thought I had made a mistake and ordered from the wrong restaurant by accident but unfortunately not, it just seems to be a common thing that they don’t cook their chicken for any of their customers now 🤷‍♀️

13/04/2026: Got a severe dose of food poisoning from here last wed Avoid

09/02/2026: Chips were horrible and the hole lot in general was cold waited over an hour for delivery

12/04/2026: A warm welcome, and a calm and friendly atmosphere. Overall, a very good experience.

22/01/2026: I order large cappuccino, but about 70% of it was disgusting foam that just stayed in the cup. Terrible coffee. I will definitely never come back.

26/05/2026: Went there before 7:45 pm staff is at break came back at 8pm still not back from the break if the closing time is 9pm Ur on break before 7:45pm and then never return till the store closing at 9 so better just close it at 7 and update the details online

12/05/2026: Subway is absolutely my favorite fast food restaurant, so it was definitely a nice surprise to find one here. I like the way you can customize your sandwiches, and the staff were kind enough to help me choose. The space is quite narrow, but still enough to move around. You can't eat inside.

25/05/2026: They don't have a card machine, only accept cash, don't have a website, delivery driver can't deliver to anywhere "outside of D12", even if it's an EIGHT MINUTE drive from the Takeaway. If they are looking to destroy their own business they are doing a fantastic job. I wonder if they are paying tax 🤔

12/04/2026: I orederd 2 4In 1s a while back salt and chili chicken tge chicken was pink and very dry i rang up and told them they gave me a credit for these items so i orderd again 2/3"weeks later that was ok now i havent ordered from here in months i went to order my dsughter 4In 1 tonight and was told i cannot order anymore what a disgrace just because i complained about the chicken how dare they do that i will blacking your name dont worry about that i have a right to complain about raw chicken

21/04/2026: worst place to go avoid old woohomen. Over price

17/03/2026: Good people and good food to dine. Amazing atmosphere. 💯% recommendation

03/07/2026: Ordered late at night , didn’t receive the order, horrible customer service We didn’t receive the pizza or a refund

10/06/2026: Absolutely awful ordered pizza at 1 am, cheese was lumpy and not properly melted, dough was hardly cooked way to much garlic shake ruined the pizza and smell was awful, shouldnt be opened that late if the quality is going to be muck

06/07/2026: The order arrived on time, but the quality is crap. The sandwiches were crushed, dry, and cold. We ordered toasted sandwiches, but they didn't. The nachos were cold with a piece of cheese. The cheese balls were incredibly spicy, and they didn't warn us. The potato waffles were soggy and in one piece. One cookie was bitten off, leaving teeth marks!!!

11/06/2026: Great food and nice staff, say so far it's one of the best subways in Dublin. Was helped how to use the self-order kiosk by the staff. Sadly it was interrupted by poor deliveroo drivers shot gun passenger who abuse the staff. There should be a policy to protect staff… also if someone who's shotgunning for the deliveroo driver is picking the order. Doesn't seem like my food is being delivered safely if I'm the one orderifn food. Who will hold responsibility if the order isn't right. Shouldn't be the subway staff but the deliveroo driver for sure.

15/05/2026: Chicken fillet baguete was very poor........ Im still chewing the chicken....same piece, 7 mins in

12/04/2026: Absolutely 💯 per cent awful man this evening bald man and (Polish maybe) ORDERED 10 bags of chips online got a call to ask if salt and vinegar was wanted....great customer service from a female! Went to collect the man tried to joke about the amount ordered my husband said it was for the guys protesting.....the man didn't take kindly to it and told him 20 mins to wait! 30 mins on still waiting and left with no food husband demanded a refund and left we spent our money elsewhere!!. This place was always amazing the food was wonderful for the last 20 years!! Management need to look at who they're hiring! Never again will I or family members revisit

22/03/2026: 3 times iv ordered from here in recent weeks and this was the last as there has been something wrong each time. Ordered through the app which never went through to the store, A colleague rang to confirm order and then they made the wrong pizza and it took over an hour to get here. Mistakes happen I get that, I would have been happy with a replacement pizza, but when I rang a colleague basically said it was my fault! TERRIBLE customer service in this particular shop. Giving the amount of bad reviews it is clearly being run by bad management. Avoid!

02/03/2026: My son ordered with cash delivery around 4pm today, and the driver didn't have enough change. He was short 5 euros after the tip, and he said he'd come back. My son just forgot about that. At 9:50pm the driver returned with money. Please say thank you to him. What an honest person. Amazing 👏

19/02/2026: Absolutely horrible place. The owner walking around in sandals with his huge toenails exposed while you try to eat. Tables all sticky and dirty. Hygiene is completely absent here and any self respecting Irish person should avoid. I’m extremely ill after eating here!

19/02/2026: Save your health and avoid this place. Food authorities need to take action… fast.

22/02/2026: Thank you, Hazel, for the amazing recommendation ❤️⭐ The black coffee is delicious, and the almond croissant is excellent. I will definitely come again. I think the Google Maps reviews are unfair.

18/06/2026: Waiting over an hour chipper is 5 mins away food was freezing and rotten no salad on kebabs destroyed in sauce couldnt eat it! worst chipper around

30/05/2026: amazing food amazing price, try!!!
