The best restaurants in Dublin

18/01/2026: We liked it even though it was quite busy.

18/01/2026: Attended for a work Christmas lunch and had a fantastic time. The food was absolutely delicious, cooked in front of us. Lots of interaction from the chef and a singsong at the end. The restaurant opened early to accommodate us which was really appreciated by us country folk having to travel a distance! Will definitely be back and would highly recommend, especially for groups. Staff were so attentive and friendly.

15/11/2025: A cute and warm soup shop☘️ The soup is delicious with lots of ingredients and the bread is soft and delicious.

23/10/2025: Cozy beautiful little cafe - perfect for a rainy day in Dublin

11/12/2025: We had a corporate event and learnt how to make pizza. Everything from the organizing the event, to the actual event was superb. Great communication, and the host of the event was class. Thank you Pinocchio team!

11/12/2025: Table was not ready for 15 minutes despite an online booking. The restaurant was very loud, with a food-making class happening right behind us. I got the salmon and it was fine but nothing to write home about and the portion was small. The service was excellent once we were seated.

17/01/2026: I came down from Belfast to try this place after some good reviews. The food is very well presented, portions are OK, can be a bit small for some. The service is OK, can afford to be a bit more attentive. Bathrooms are clean.

06/01/2026: Egg tart really crispy and delicious

15/01/2026: What a fabulous refurbishment they have done. The place is amazing, so plush. Great to see it so busy & would recommend a visit!!

12/01/2026: An experience and a piece of old Dublin. Slàn ☘️

08/01/2026: Lovely cafe, delicious food. We went for breakfast, highly recommend the breakfast. We had 1 full brekkie, 1 mini brekkie and 1 pancakes with maple syrup and bacon. All delicious 😋

12/12/2025: Very tasty and really fast. We had a great time

11/01/2026: A nice pub in the centre of Dublin.

04/01/2026: A friendly atmosphere, an authentic pub feel, and simple yet expertly prepared cuisine. A place where you eat well and feel good.

19/01/2026: Wow. The best Italian food I’ve ever had in a restaurant and fantastic service, can’t recommend enough!

19/01/2026: The service was amazing, absolutely zero complaints whatsoever. However, I ordered the Fettuccine ala Carbonara as I have in the past and I was very disappointed. Usually it’s my favourite thing on the menu but this particular time there was an undeniable metallic taste off the dish. I unfortunately couldn’t see past it. Again, service was phenomenal but the food left a lot to be desired.

03/02/2026: Music was disappointing, along with the selection of cocktails. We lasted one drink and left, we didnt eat here. Staff were lovely.

31/01/2026: Spectacular space with a very friendly team.

24/11/2025: On my visit I had coffee and mince pies,absolutely fabulous ambience and service, can't wait to have lunch soon, highly recommend a visit

25/10/2025: A harmonious, cozy, clean place with a fair price.

13/01/2026: It is a great place for a night out the food is good and the entertainment and music is amazing. Always a great night out, guaranteed 👌🏻

11/01/2026: Over from Scotland, and right away we were welcomed in. Staff are lovely. Special shoutout to the Swiss German barman, he was incredible with us and was a good laugh! Live music was very good, when we are back in Dublin, this’ll be our go to.

15/01/2026: Very nice venue ..welcoming staff ..food was lovely

24/12/2025: To start with, this used to be a family favorite spot and we had Mam's 60th here with zero complaints, but after today we will never return as it was a total disaster. I totally understand it’s Christmas Eve and there is going to be a long wait which is fine, but we got there at 10:00 and I had to wipe the table myself. Coffees came out at 10:15/10:30 but the food didn't arrive until 11:15. I asked for water 3 times and it never came. I eventually cleaned the table and put the dishes on the bar myself, and while I was there I asked for water a 4th time only to be told "only orders from the table"—an instruction that comically came from the owner, I later found out. We actually had to go to the shops straight after we left just to get drinks because we were so dehydrated. When the breakfast finally came it was the wrong order. 2 breakfasts came out first with toast but no butter; I asked twice for butter and still none arrived. Then the other 2 breakfasts arrived after we had already started the first 2. I asked for butter a third time and it never came, and we also ordered tea twice which never arrived either. I told the waitress all of this and she was very nice and sorry, but it wasn’t her fault, it was the overall management of the place. Actions speak louder than words and we were charged for the cold coffees and full price for the breakfast, which I can only describe as 2 hours of pure frustration for what was meant to be an annual family Christmas breakfast. As you can see I’ve never left a bad review for anywhere, but this experience wins for my first ever bad review. Paying full price for what was a disaster is unacceptable. Avoid this place at all costs.

03/08/2025: The service is fast and the personal is nice. The food tastes good and is not that expansive. Thank you,
