The best restaurants in Dublin

29/03/2025: SERVICE: Really amazing staff. Arrived without a reservation on a busy night and sat outside. They did everything possibly to make sure we were comfortable, and above all warm. Shortly after they found us a table indoors, but we were well set up at that point and more than happy with the arrangement. FOOD: The food was very good indeed. Can highly recommend the Mare e Monti pasta and the scallop starter. OVERALL: Perfect balance between quality and value. I'll be back!

29/03/2025: Three Girlfriends on a Friday Night Out! Casanovas was perfect - fab food & wine, lovely staff & a great buzz in the place! We’ll be back! Thanks

28/02/2025: The Bakery Temple Bar is a cozy corner in the heart of Dublin, ideal for those looking for a delicious breakfast or a snack during the day. Their selection of freshly baked pastries is excellent, with crispy croissants and fluffy pastries. The coffee is quality and perfectly accompanies any sweet or sandwich. Plus, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with friendly service making the experience even more enjoyable. Without a doubt, a good place to enjoy a bite to eat in the heart of Temple Bar. Recommended for lovers of bread and pastries!

27/02/2025: Wanted birthday cake from this bakery but none available. Must be booked in advance. Quaint and old fashioned environment.

23/03/2025: Such a cozy and authentic irish bar with an amazing pool table and spaces !

05/03/2025: Great spot for a late night drink and game of pool.

18/04/2025: Well wasn't Impressed. Had a steak sandwich, rough and though. The Steak knife could hardly get through it.

06/04/2025: Elinoras, for food and drink, the best pub in Dublin 12. Very pleasant management and staff, great food and drink and a lovely place to relax, great atmosphere.

22/04/2025: We visited Perios Grill with a group of friends and had a fantastic experience. We ordered the Double Shish, Chelo Kebab, Sultani Kebab, Queen Kebab, and a portion of wings, along with Ayran and Coke. First of all, all dishes were served with rice, which is a smart and traditional choice for a kebab restaurant. They also served freshly baked bread (nan), made in-house in a tanour oven—adding an authentic and delicious touch. Portion sizes were generous and satisfying. I must say, the Chelo Kebab (Koobideh/minced kebab) was one of the best you can find in Dublin and surrounding areas—grilled over coals to perfection, rich in flavor, and juicy. The wings were also well-seasoned and tasty. A lovely surprise: they offered complimentary brewed tea—not teabags, which I really dislike, but proper loose-leaf brewed tea. It was excellent. We paired it with baklava and handmade Dubai Chocolate (not the original brand, but still incredibly good). We spent around €33 per person, which was reasonable considering the quality, portion sizes, and overall experience. The staff were absolutely wonderful—kind, warm, and genuinely hospitable. I truly respect the way they treated their guests. A heartfelt thank you to the team for such a welcoming experience.

21/04/2025: How can you keep the restaurant closed at 3 pm. That’s my time for lunch I am paying you so u need to be more accommodating and keep ur shop open at my convenience. Else u don’t get my money and a good rating It’s a feedback u need to work on !

10/04/2025: Good food. I enjoyed an excellent veggie omelette. Coffee is very good too.

09/04/2025: All I’m going to say is that the person who helped me gave me a handful of free chocolates. Oh, and the pesto panini was fantastic! I’m a happy boy.

25/03/2025: Tropezó con este lugar. Junto al Liffey. Entró. El personal era muy amable. Recomiendo un plato. Cuando llegué a la caja/check-out. Dijeron “todos los días dan una comida gratis a un cliente al azar”. ¡Hoy fui yo! ¡Qué sorpresa tan encantadora! La comida era increíble. Muy fresco y lleno de sabor! Me encantó. ¡Y volverá! ¡No puedo felicitar lo suficiente! ¡Bien hecho brote& co!

26/02/2025: Love it to bits. Try the Mediterranean chicken bowl!

17/03/2025: Nice place, my kids liked the pancakes. I was personally disappointed that there’s nothing vegan on the menu except one of the desserts, which was admittedly nice. They also forgot to bring my coffee.

26/02/2025: One of the best steaks around and lots of it. Perfectly cooked and falking apart. Lots of trimmings with it too.

21/03/2025: Friday night and was quite inside, sushi was average at best, not what I expected in all honesty...

15/03/2025: Had lovely takoyaki and unadon for lunch the other day. Real friendly staff and great ambience. Will be back for dinner at some point!

06/04/2025: Chicken satay and wings were both delicious starters! The green curry chicken was amazing — highly recommended. Pad Thai beef was just okay.

03/04/2025: I've been coming to this restaurant for five years because I really enjoy Thai cuisine. However, the quality has been declining over time. My biggest issue is with the egg fried rice. I understand that they might keep the rice ready, but the egg should always be freshly cooked and mixed in. Every time I order, I get rice that has clearly been reheated multiple times, making it dry and crumbly. Unfortunately, it's become almost inedible. I really hope they improve this because I used to love this place.

24/03/2025: Quality coffee, friendly and homely location. Hidden gem

23/03/2025: Great cafe and great dancing classes Lindy hop is great

11/04/2025: A really great pub with lovely people. I highly recommend!☺️

18/03/2025: A friend and I popped in here for several pints having completed the Aware Harbour to Harbour walk on St Patrick's Day. A lively atmosphere and charming bar staff. Just be warned - they don't serve food here any longer. But the Guinness is great!

28/03/2025: Great menu, coffee and friendly service.

26/03/2025: Its the best place if you want to buy wine . Paul or Anthony are great with loads of knowledge . Never steer you wrong

28/03/2025: Stayed here for valentines with my girlfriend, room was nice but bath had no hot water and Netflix didn’t work on the TV even when advertised it did, spa was utterly terrible. Sauna, steam room and hot tub were all tiny which meant you were shoulder to shoulder with other people and right next to the pool with screaming children so impossible to relax. Isn’t really a relaxing spa more like a community spa. Food was amazing in earth and vine restaurant but service was terrible, staff are all very amateur and ignore you by purposely looking away when you’re trying to catch their attention. Took us 25 minutes to order before waiting another 15 minutes for a drinks menu to arrive. Will definitely not be back as there is much nicer hotels with real spa facilities such as the Johnstown estate which we have stayed at before and will definitely be returning to.

25/03/2025: Beautiful area and very nice hotel. Staff were very accommodating and the room was incredible. As an unexpected bonus, the Irish National soccer team was staying there, so it was fun to see all the young kids getting autographs and photos with the players.

28/02/2025: Lovely ambiance really nice spot

12/02/2025: Lovely spot , excellent staff and management
