Brass Bar & Grill
Dublin
16/01/2026: Nice warm comfortable hotel…friendly staff and very good location for appointments in the Beacon hospital
12/01/2026: Lovely one night stay, we'd lunch with family in the bar the following day, food was delicious but service was appalling, it wasn't busy at all but the waiters were more interested in conversing against themselves, we couldn't catch their eye for water, then dessert menus and finally the bill.

Peploe's
Dublin
18/01/2026: Absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. This restaurant delivers an experience that goes far beyond a great meal. The atmosphere in Peploe’s strikes the perfect balance between stylish and welcoming with their staff making you feel relaxed the moment you walk in. The service is very attentive, warm, and genuinely thoughtful and every recommendation felt personal.
The food is where it truly shines. Each dish is beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, clearly made with high-quality ingredients and so evident in their exquisite starter Scampi of Dublin Bay Prawns with the lightest batter wrapping the sweet succulent prawns. From the first bite to the last, everything was perfectly balanced and memorable.
Portion sizes were generous without being overwhelming, the main of Prime Irish Beef Fillet with Fondant Potatoes and Peppercorn Sauce was perfectly cooked with a beautifully caramelized crust that gave way to a warm, rosy center, seasoned simply to let the purity of the beef shine. The Mains Special that night was Barbary Duck with Foie Gras and Cherry Sauce. The Duck Breast had its fat perfectly rendered and foie gras added a silken, luxurious depth, while the cherry sauce cut through with bright acidity and gentle sweetness, bringing the dish into perfect balance. Even the smallest details, like the sides and sauces, were exceptional. Peploe’s menu offers something for everyone while still feeling creative and refined. This is the kind of place you keep thinking about long after you leave. A true gem with excellent staff that are welcoming, professional and mindful. An easy five-star experience and a big reason we’ll be back
05/01/2026: Simply delicious, absolutely fabulous!
Open when most places were closed. Not a table free, and there is a reason why!
Claudia the magnificent took our booking and we would go back again just for that smile!
I had the kidneys to start, sublime! A beautiful creamy rich sauce toasted Brioche all amazing. MBW had the chickpea and aubergine starter, she said it was delicious , it must have been she didn't share any! Sea bass for main also perfect. We ordered two bread baskets, one would have done!
I had the filet steak to follow which was a winner, hallelujah!
We had the Sancere white to start followed by a couple of bottles of Lussac St Émilion, take me away WOW.
SERVICE WAS THE BEST. Claudia and Paul were fabulous and a delightful lady from Brittany whose name escapes me ! All top class
What a night, we are coming back soon I hope. Dinner for 4 cost €440 The best dining experience I have had in a long time!

The Cellar
Dublin
25/12/2025: A nice bar underneath an upmarket hotel. A few nice alcoves to sit in but TV showing darts was a strange choice in this establishment
27/11/2025: Wonderful place! I celebrated my birthday here — and it was the perfect choice. The restaurant has a very cozy atmosphere, pleasant interior, and a comfortable setting that instantly makes you feel relaxed. The food is delicious, beautifully and neatly presented. The dishes are truly worth their price — the menu is in the mid-range category, but the quality is top-notch.
The staff were attentive and friendly, and helped make the evening special. I was left with only the best impressions. I will definitely come back again and happily recommend this restaurant to my friends.

Leopardstown Inn
Dublin
31/12/2025: My family visited The Lepp Inn after the Leopardstown races on 28th December, following what had been a lovely day. Unfortunately, the experience in this pub was appalling and completely ruined the evening
There were several of my aunts present, all women in their 40s and 50s. They were subjected to disgusting behaviour by a group of young men and women in the pub. My family were verbally and physically abused, called names, and mocked. One of my aunts was refused a seat, another had her brand-new phone taken and deliberately rubbed in water.
Following this, one of my aunts threw a drink at the individual after her phone was ruined. He then punched her in the chin, causing her to fall to the floor. Another patron intervened to help my family, at which point members of the same group turned on him and physically attacked him as well. This all occurred in a very short space of time and caused serious distress.
They were called “knackers” and insulted about how they supposedly smelled. There was both verbal and physical intimidation, which was extremely upsetting and unacceptable.
While I understand that the behaviour of patrons does not always reflect an establishment, what made this even worse was the attitude of the staff. Rather than intervening or offering support, they treated my family very poorly and made them feel unwelcome, as if they were not “good enough” to be there.
The behaviour displayed that night showed a complete lack of respect for women and for older people. It was shocking, disgraceful, and deeply upsetting. I live and work locally in Sandyford and am genuinely embarrassed to be associated with these type of people and a place where this kind of behaviour is tolerated.
Ironically, I had my work Christmas party in The Lepp Inn shortly before this incident. After what my family experienced, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this pub to anyone.
27/12/2025: Our sever Izzy was so kind and made sure we had everything we needed. Props to her 👏❤️

Fabi's Grill
Dublin
15/01/2026: Food is great, but I have never seen a restaurant where you need to get up and go to the till while youre dinning to order and pay. Also we sat on the table for almost 20 minutes until someone finally told us how to get our food. Apart from this poor service, food is great.
14/01/2026: The food was good, but the place needs an extractor fan! We left smelling strongly of food.

26/07/2025: Wasn’t expecting to hit the dance floor on a Thursday night but the DJ had us up and moving! Amazing drinks, vibes and music x
