The best restaurants in Dublin

02/12/2025: Wow this is a little hidden gem :) It is in a little random place but once you find it, it is a cozy and warm place to be! Great for kids and the food... is one of the best bang for buck deals in Dublin!!

27/11/2025: This place is gorgeous. The food is carefully sourced, well made and fairly priced, but above all delicious. Sitting by the window with a coffee in an enamel cup is a singular joy. I have noticed it is really family friendly also. The owners have created something really special here.

15/04/2026: Best old fashioned I've ever had... And I live on the bourbon trail in US. Excellent an well worth the price. Will absolutely come back

14/04/2026: wouldnt let me and my two friends in claiming there were bookings despite there being plenty of free tables and seats. also had a strange judgemental attitude

08/04/2026: The atmosphere was great, and the food was decent! However, there seems to be a minimum charge, so be aware!

07/04/2026: I really enjoyed the food. They served it very quickly.

09/04/2026: Got a takeaway pizza from here. Very good quality and tasted amazing. Only thing I would say is it would be great if delivery pizzas had better packaging/were packaged a bit more securely.

09/04/2026: Restaurant was empty, Quick to have a table. Then... 30 minutes to get 4 pizzas, no kids format, no burgers, only pizzas and pasta. Pizzaiolo was in shorts, no regular coca cola but a Gaza cola which was annonced as a cola. Overall not so great on the service or menu, but pizzas were good !

06/01/2026: I bought a full tray of baklava from Ella’s Heaven and it was absolutely outstanding. From the moment you open the box, you can smell the freshness real butter, high-quality pistachios, and perfectly baked layers. It’s not overly sweet or dry; the syrup balance is spot on, and every bite just melts in your mouth. It’s been a long time since I’ve had baklava of this quality in Ireland. You can truly taste the care, skill, and tradition in every single layer. I served it to guests and everyone loved it they all asked where it was from. Ella’s Heaven is not just about desserts; it’s about consistency, cleanliness, and top-level quality. I can confidently say this is the best baklava in Ireland. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates real, authentic taste.

06/01/2026: WARNING! This place was served a closure order for having cockroach’s next to food in the kitchen. A mix of live & dead cockroach’s along with cockroach’s at all life stages. Google keeps taking this review down which is shocking considering the state of the kitchen in this cafe

13/12/2025: Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. We were served burgers without fries, which were not included or even offered. The burgers themselves were very basic and quite poor in quality. Considering the price, the value for money was not good at all. We expected much more for what we paid.

28/11/2025: Great experience, delicious burgers and super friendly staff! I highly recommend it.

17/04/2026: To expansive for the portion size.

13/04/2026: Fab little place. Afternoon Tea was delicious. Cakes were devine and the prosecco was a lovely touch. Will definitely be returning.

22/04/2026: Just back from there with husband and kids. Really really good place, food was delicious, kids meals were quite big, very reasonable prices and very tasty, I got Caesar salad and husband got the loaded potatoes skins, every thing was eaten, and it was all so tasty and price for all was very good value. Girl that served us was also so nice. Will be back!! ETA i have to say this place is gone downhill, I think they changed the chef, food is terrible, chicken wings were obviously lying there and then re heated because the meat was hard, husband got Guinness and it was really bad, we have tried this place a few times hoping it was a once off but no, awful so won't be back unfortunately.

23/03/2026: Staying with work in The West County Hotel and went for walk in Phoenix Park. Called in here for bite to eat and a drink on way back. first thing that strikes you is the interior is really nice and the pub has real character. Food was excellent with an extensive menu and staff were just nice people. Will definitely be back and would strongly recommend it. It's outside appearance doesn't prepare you for how nice it is inside.

25/02/2026: My experience was awesome. The service was excellent and the atmosphere, the food. Everything. Loved it

16/02/2026: Worst chicken katsu curry I've ever had, period! Must have been a third of a chicken breast, battered out so thin that you aren't getting a decent portion. Where was the sauce? The little that was there was very, very bland! Even store-bought katsu sauces have 10x more flavour than that. Tiny portion of rice, too. Underwhelming garnish. Just a complete waste of money. Atmosphere is alright, tables are a little too close together. There was one staff member there who, despite us being the only customers ordering at the time, took a long time to take our order. Maybe some other dishes are good, but that katsu curry - please stay away from it is my advice.

18/04/2026: Great Irish pub by our hotel, very busy and great drinks service

17/04/2026: Our favorite pub in Dublin! We loved it so much that we came back several times during our stay. Great atmosphere, historic building, and very friendly staff. A must-visit if you want a real Dublin pub experience!

28/12/2025: I liked the Tom Yum and the pineapple rice. I recommend it.

28/12/2025: Simply put, we loved the food. The service was very friendly and super fast. The portion sizes were great.

16/04/2026: We wanted to have an Irish brunch when we arrived in Dublin and we absolutely don't regret our choice! Everything was perfect, the food was excellent, we were full for €15 each, the place is very cozy and the atmosphere is absolutely lovely, as are Luis and the other staff! We wish we had a restaurant like this near us! Go for it without hesitation, thank you, thank you, thank you!

13/04/2026: this was the cosiest, cutest little nook in the middle of dublin. the service was GREAT, our waiter was very nice (shoutout to the old man) and the guinness stew that I had blew my socks off.

13/04/2026: Always good to be in the igoe great atmosphere.always made welcome and the service is brilliant.

11/04/2026: A beautiful pub in Killiney. We experienced a very friendly host and his team. The Guinness was served perfectly poured. The food was truly delicious. We had a hearty soup and perfectly prepared king prawns Pil Pil style. The prawn sauce was incredibly delicious. The pub has a bright, nautical style. Beautifully bright and welcoming. Long story short: If you're ever in Killiney, you absolutely have to stop by. A clear recommendation. The Pil Pil prawns are especially recommended. Many thanks to the owner and his team for the great service. We'll definitely be back for a pint and the delicious prawns. Best wishes from Germany ❤️❤️

04/11/2025: Beautiful place, it truly embodies the Irish spirit, with plenty of space and floors to share with friends, partners, and family. It has a wonderful bar with live music for dancing and enjoying yourself—highly recommended.

03/11/2025: A lively pub with cheerful music and a huge crowd!!!

20/04/2026: Very nice pub! Guiness is criminally good. Had like 3, then I forgot where I was after that becauae I don't drink. 5 stars, would come again.

19/04/2026: Best venue in Dublin with lovely pints
