The best restaurants in Dublin

15/02/2025: Had a great dinner at the Carriage restaurant. The chicken Caesar salad was amazing! The steak was cooked perfectly, and everything was really well presented. I also tried a salmon starter for the first time. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the staff were incredibly attentive and offered to change it if i didn’t like it. Even when we said it was fine, they insisted on making sure we had sth we really enjoyed, which was such a nice touch.

21/10/2024: Lovely place for a nice relaxing lunch - Great service and atmosphere.

22/02/2025: If frostbite had a flavor, it would taste like Taystees. Every item in my order screamed “frozen mediocrity,” as though the kitchen’s only appliance was a microwave and its only ambition was disappointment. Let’s start with the burgers: dry, lifeless patties that could double as hockey pucks in a pinch. The “Quarter Pounder” was less “juicy beef” and more “freezer-burn relic,” its texture so parched I half-expected sand to pour out. The nachos? A glacial wasteland of stale chips, topped with a miserly sprinkle of meat so sparse it felt like a garnish for existential despair, just a sad homage to laziness. Even the Red Velvet Cake tasted like it had been thawed from the Ice Age, its frosting congealed into a sugary cement. And the “crispy” chicken sandwiches? Soggy breading clinging to rubbery meat, as if “crispy” meant “defrosted in a hurry.” Taystees isn’t cooking—they’re reheating. Charging premium prices for freezer-aisle rejects is bold, but calling it “food” is delusional. Save your euros. Better yet, save your dignity. TL;DR: A frozen-food fiasco. Dry burgers, nachos that are 90% chips, and zero effort. Taystees is where flavor goes to die—permanently.

19/11/2024: This place doesn't exist. It's a con. They let me you order on their app and then say, use just eat. Even though they take payment on their app. They said they wouldn't accept order so I would get a refund. NEVER RECEIVED!! Also they use a kitchen in a curry house. They trade as a curry house in the day etc and then at night turn into a dodgy establishment. I see they also trade under a different name for curry, day time takeaway and late night take away. (Late night Philliez is the other trading name. Beware!!) I ordered a large wing spice box three wings!! Disgraceful. More people need to know especially as tourists around

07/09/2024: They sell 2€ Lidl burger for 14€

16/08/2024: Music was top class all through the Howth Festival weekend

27/04/2024: My best buffet restaurant for huge salads in Dublin at a good price. Staff is lovely but they are overwhelmed by the large number of customers for lunch. The place itself is a bit messy / crowded / noisy.

16/02/2024: Not enough staff . The food is good but not reliable for vegans. It has happened several times that I found no vegan food available or was told it's already finished. Meanwhile, there are usually up to six different options for non-vegans. If they genuinely want to be inclusive for vegan students and staff, they need to ensure reliability and consistency with the availability of vegan options, rather than treating vegan food as an extra or luxurious option. If they don't want to be a reliable plant-based provider, at least announce days that they will serve vegan. This way at least people don't be left hungry and disappointed.
