The best restaurants in Dublin

12/09/2025: Great spot - always busy - possibly the quietest, best kept beer garden in the city.

09/09/2025: Kennedy's is a historic Dublin institution with a classic, vintage charm. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, offering a relaxed setting for a pint. The traditional decor and low lighting create a cozy, timeless feel. It's an ideal spot for a quiet drink and conversation, making you feel like a local from the moment you walk in.

11/08/2025: Went for afternoon tea, the setting was beautiful and so relaxing with the piano being played in the background. The staff were all excellent and the coffee was delicious.

01/08/2025: The Art Afternoon tea was such a lovely experience - the food is absolutely delicious and beautifully presented in luxurious surroundings. The second serving of the deserts which are intricately designed to complement the hotel's beautiful art collection is a lovely addition. The service was excellent. Thoroughly recommended.

11/08/2025: Went couple of times. This time was awful. Mussels wasn’t fresh. Waiters did not even try to listen to us when we’re asking them questions. 2 stars only for location!

07/08/2025: Best food of our entire trip. You can’t go wrong with any of the dishes. Would recommend to any one visiting or living in Dublin!

18/10/2025: Great food and amazing service! Loved the atmosphere and the delicious dishes!

09/07/2025: Overall good food great service

12/10/2025: Long wait for food and quite pricey.

12/10/2025: We went to this restaurant and placed our order, but after waiting 40 minutes, we had to ask about our food — only to be told they didn’t have what we had ordered. No one had bothered to inform us earlier. They said they would call the manager, but the manager never came to our table. In the end, I had to go over myself just to ask how much the drinks were, and they simply said, “Yeah, the order was cancelled.” I find it unacceptable for a restaurant to let customers — especially families with a child — wait that long, only to be told there’s no food available. The lack of communication and responsibility from the staff and management was shocking. Definitely not a place I’d recommend.

16/10/2025: Great chilled out little cafe in Killiney Park in a lovely setting. All of the staff were really friendly and the cakes and pastries were to die for (best almond croissant and pain au raisin we’ve ever had) Also very dog friendly and you get meet loads of lovely dogs which was good as we love them and don’t have one of our own!!

15/10/2025: Lovely coffee. Fabulous brownies and protein balls. Interesting and broad selection of teas that I've yet to explore. Great layout where tired dog owners can relax and chat. A favourite switch off with nature. Food a bit pricey. Excellent service from very friendly staff.

12/09/2025: Surprisingly good and if you are a Rugby fan or a concert fan book we'll ahead (like up to a year)

11/09/2025: Loved the convenience, the staff is terrific from waitstaff to housekeeping to the front desk. The restaurant and bar is well run and the food from the entire menu is delivered with exceptionally consistent quality. Over 16 days nothing was sent back to the kitchen with the 32 people who traveled with us. What was consistently aggravating was a reservation system that failed regularly to communicate effectively for over 7 months. The inability to change rates over the length of the stay without making a new reservation (we had to make three separate bookings and then spent several hours assuring we would be remaining in the same room for the entirety of our stay), the repeated email/demand requests for payment that did not include a link to make the payment and at least one of our USA teammates had their request sent in Italian. Despite the nearly daily issues with accounting and reservations, we truly enjoyed the hotel. Be ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that you have a reservation. Make sure to utilize the With Breakfast option.

16/09/2025: Bad service and very rude personnel! don't recommend at all.

08/09/2025: My first encounter with Ireland. Excellent atmosphere, breakfast and staff. They didn't make any problem with my request for a chair and an ashtray. The food was very good and reasonably priced.

29/09/2025: The tagliatelle pasta it was so good, the ragu sauce it’s my favourite now and Diego that served me he’s was such a nice guy and Thoughtful, I’m gonna back more times.

29/09/2025: I went to the restaurant today for lunch and really enjoyed the atmosphere. It was very clean and organized, and the service from Diego was amazing. Thank you, I’ll be coming back more often.

05/09/2025: Well maintained course no bushes or shrubs to loose a lot of balls in large enough fairways even a beginner could hit but when you get to the greens you need to be semi professional they are fast hilly and the pins are in though to hit placement recommended 8/10 would definitely play here again

05/09/2025: Excellent golf course a must visit for golf

13/10/2025: Sea bass was amazing food has got a lot better over the last few mths.

11/10/2025: Always a great buzz here, especially on a weekend or match day! The pub has a brilliant energy, with a good mix of locals and visitors. The live music sessions are top-notch. A solid choice for a fun night out with a great pint in hand.

17/10/2025: Great chicken wings, amazing cauliflower wings - go just to try them! Shout-out to Todd (sorry if misspelled) - fantastic service! Only con being the DJ - he was a fine DJ, I just didn't think he fit the vibe nor did I think he was necessary. That said, will definitely be back!

11/10/2025: Came for some lunch with the family, atmosphere was nice and quiet and food was lovely top marks

18/09/2025: This was the worst dinning experience I have had in this restaurant in the past two years. Food had been authentic until this Tuesday. Since when did Kongpao chicken (The second picture) become sweet, sour and so soupy?I ordered soy sauce braised pork but the dish served (the first picture) was totally different from the picture in the menu. I was stunned to see broccoli, carrots and even seaweed in it. There supposed to be only pork with some fat in between and cooked to a creamy texture with a sweet taste. However, the served dish was light in color and savory tasting. The pork was on the dry side. The texture was horrible. I asked the waitress why the dish was not as shown in the menu. She simply replied:”It is our style.” with a slice of embarrassment on her face. I asked the waiter if they had a different chef to hint nothing was done right tonight. His answer was negative and they couldn’t even bother with these two wrong dishes. I took my friend there, telling him they served authentic Chinese food here. Apparently, it was a slap on my own face.

18/09/2025: Still I like it. Relaxed, friendly and authentic

18/08/2025: Amazing!!! We were here three evenings ensuite. And the best was the singer today (name??) Thanx for the Guinness. Espacially the two ladies behind the bar!! Incredible!! How fast they work and at the same time so relaxed, even singing and dancing during pressing the beer. Sorry for my horrible english- greetings from Ilka and Peter from Berlin/Germany

15/08/2025: 1 of the best places in Dublin City to enjoy not just the fantastic Creamy Guinness along with other drinks. But Carla and staff go really beyond what is expected. Local people are extremely friendly and helpful. I'd highly recommend this place as since in Dublin it's very difficult to find a better place.

12/10/2025: New Coffee shop Babil will be great when they get into their stride

10/10/2025: Terrible terrible experience. Do not waste your time
