The best restaurants in Dublin

05/11/2026: Don't let tourists from another country in because of thin pants and no avision we came from far to meet and we are barred terrible respectively from the security guards

03/11/2026: Needs better dj sometimes is becoming boring same songs every week

23/10/2026: Excellent wood-fired pizzas, the pasta was also very good. Friendly staff.

23/10/2026: Ordered pizza into Big Romance. Took 60+ min, tiny pizza for a high price but good taste.

13/10/2026: Awkward and rushed experience with staff. No athmosphere. Big step outside the store which is easy to twist an ankle on or fall on. Would not teturn to this location.

11/10/2026: Haven’t been here in years, so I popped in and ordered my usual: a burrito and a drink. I was genuinely shocked when it came to €19.70. They seem to charge extra for practically everything now. It was one of my favourite spots years ago, and the prices honestly made me wonder why I hadn’t been back in so long. This place used to offer such good value for money, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. To be fair, the portion size is still decent and the food tastes great, but the prices have really taken away from what used to make this place so good. A real shame, because I used to love coming here.

14/09/2026: Lovely restaurant and great service, The food is first class 🙏

12/09/2026: Behold Mario! He grew among the ursid folk in the thin air and thickets; there, with that reigning bird-of-Jove circling o'er did he find an appetite for the eye that sees the frost of peaks. Mario with his eagle and ursids took of the eternal tree's overflowing sap. Eternally-recurring, eternally-returning is this tree! Like the rising-falling sun, this tree too becomes weary of its plenitude and seeks to send forth its wonders, so they might prosper through the workings of another beast. O what would this tree be without Mario, his eagle and his ursids! Without their yearning snouts gazing upon its sky-reaching stature! Behold! Mario too becomes weary of his abundance! Like a hive that has gathered to much honey – he needs cupped hands outstretched to take it! He: the cup that wants to overflow! He: Mario! shall send pouring his light 'til the hungry revel in their plenty, and the wise in their folly! Thus began Mario's downgoing, to the town named 'Piety'. When Mario arrived in the valley village with his pots and pans and plants a plenty, the people thought him strange and unsettling. They turned their shoulders to him and huddling in their heaps they muttered thus to one another, and blinked: 'Who is this vile cook who comes from the Ursid peaks?... where those bilious bruins dwell...', 'Yes who! Who is this fool who laughs behind his pots of sanguine sauce? Who dances with his pans, as though instead of pans they were indeed musicians?'. Then an elder near the centre of the huddle piped up, ''And those pots you see, they do not cook our Pious stew. He cooks a stew quite different, Nay! in fact! it is no stew! Let alone a Pious one!' Thus spoke the elder, blinking. And with this the disgruntled mass of Pious folk departed from that scene with a sententious sense of accomplishment. Come evening, when the town had grown tired of its labours, and was quite dormant, a few Piousites with keen nostrils, snook about the town of Piety. Dipping from inky shadow to shadow, they followed that new and curious scent, 'til at longsolast they found Mario at his work, roasting a great boar on his Olympic flame. In raucous frenzy, they greeted this strange foreigner, making Mario merry gifts of herbs and liquors. A set of drunken carpenters carried forth a table long and sturdy, and the potters came clinking down the lane with plates round and fat. All was jovial and drunken! Articulating the senseless sound and merriment, a composed Piousite thumped the hem of her blouse, and spoke thus, 'Noble Stranger! Long have we, in this town of Piety, eaten of boiled meats and valley stew, which neither settle nor discomfort the body. And Long! Long have i longed for a fatty proliferation! For a great abundance! For an impious indulgence! a dance! and a bowl of something flavourful! We beseech of you, O strange chef, a great feast!' And thus began the banquet!

12/09/2026: The savory pastries and pies are very tasty. I also love the hot sauce. At times, the tables are in high demand.

08/09/2026: A little piece of Brazil in Dublin. Yes, the pastéis (Brazilian-style fried pastries) are delicious, crispy, and well-filled. The flavors are very similar to those found at the street market. An interesting feature is the market with various nationalities within the establishment, and when it comes to Brazilian food, you can find fubá (cornmeal), Sazón seasoning, dado no (a type of Brazilian sweet), paçoca (peanut candy), tapioca, and more. Worth a visit!

10/10/2026: Fabulous restaurant, worth a michelin bib. The flavours of every course are divine, mixed to perfection. I wish I discovered this local gem earlier, will definitely go back ! The owner is very nice and welcoming. This is a gastronomic restaurant, not a fast food, and the price reflects that, although it stays much cheaper than many other gastro in dublin that are not as good.

02/10/2026: Amazing place owner very good and well

18/10/2026: So good! Everyone was very nice & the food was excellent. I wanted to try so many items!

17/10/2026: Been in Dublin only 3 days so far but easily the best meal I’ve had so far.

28/09/2026: Great food, great atmosphere, great service! 🫶

27/09/2026: Best Middle Eastern food I’ve ever had! Vegan mezze platter was insane. I swapped the cauliflower for falafel. Most falafel, softest pita, fragrant tabbouleh, creamy and acidic hummus, thick fatty tahini. 10/10

21/10/2026: Conveniently located within walking distance of our hotel, this Lebanese restaurant serves tasty food in rather uninspiring surroundings. The dining room is dark and somewhat shabby, with an overcrowded, rather bizarre decor, and the tables are small. Service was fairly quick, although there was a minor issue with our booking. The food was very tasty, the portions were huge and the dishes, while satisfying, were not particularly sophisticated. The overall presentation was nothing special, either. A good place for an enjoyable, straightforward meal at competitive prices, but not somewhere you would want to linger. The food is definitely better than the surroundings! Three stars for a good, average restaurant.

20/10/2026: Good Syrian food. Grilled chicken with outstanding hummus. The older gentleman was very welcoming and one of the reasons we went back. The younger chap was a bit pushy on the wine, opened a large bottle instead of just a small bottle of Prosecco. The food is amazing so we will be back.

07/06/2026: Very helpful and kind customer service

02/11/2026: Great service from the moment we walked through the door. Attentive staff and great attention to detail. Food was delish. Had oysters and A lovely juicy ribeye. No room for pud! Definitely returning for an irish coffee or two!

01/11/2026: Superb meat and nice atmosphere, we ate upstairs in the bar which was actually cozier than the restaurant

26/10/2026: Typical Irish pub, very welcoming and reasonably priced

25/10/2026: A real Irish pub. Definitely worth a visit.

28/07/2026: I did the beginners female dj class with Ellen Webb on Monday 27 July at ‘This must be the Place’ . Ellen our DJ instructor was so friendly & engaging . We were a class of 5 .. Ellen explained in detail what equipment we needed to start Ellen explained & showed us how to set up the equipment & play music . We all had the opportunity to do the same . It was a really enjoyable fun evening . Ellen was so patient & encouraging . I can’t wait to buy my own decks & get started. I would totally recommend this class for anybody who dreams of becoming a dj . Thank you Ellen x

28/07/2026: Amazing beginner-friendly DJ workshop. Ellen was so patient and encouraging, and made the session really fun. Small female-only group meant plenty of hands-on practice. It never felt rushed and I left feeling much more confident. Highly recommend.

24/10/2026: One of the best pints of Guinness I’ve ever had

20/10/2026: I went on a quiz night and absolutely loved it. The best thing about this pub is how welcoming the staff are and how engaging they are with customers. The quiz although started later than 8pm, which is totally fair when your waiting for teams to be fulfilled and arrive which is the norm FOR EVERY OTHER PUB QUIZ, it was super enjoyable. As someone who has common sense I was not expecting to win the quiz but enjoyed the level and varied ranges of questions. The atmosphere was 10/10 The service was equally better and I can’t wait to come back

11/04/2026: This location is permanently closed & needs to be updated on Google as closed.
