The best restaurants in Dublin

25/10/2025: Great little pub. Service excellent. Pints of stout excellent. A few lovely tunes playing in the corner. A real Dublin pub you must visit.

19/10/2025: Such a shame. We had a beer and walked around the city when we passed by this establishment. We could hear the music from the street so we decided to finish our drink and head to this place. When we got inside, the waiter told us that he wouldn't serve us because we drunk outside the establishment. I tried to tell him that if was just unfortunate and we didn't have any bad intentions but he threw us out acting in bad faith. Well, sorry buddy, I'd have loved to visit this establishment but you were rude and frankly ridiculous.

25/05/2025: Be careful if you're going to work here, they're not very professional, and they don't guarantee you any pre-established agreement in the interview. The food isn’t amazing.

10/04/2025: Good catering service with lovely wraps and scones Nice staff

05/12/2025: Keep up the great service and food quality!!!

01/12/2025: We went specifically for the brunch menu, but while it's still on the website https://www.lemonandduke.ie/wp-content/uploads/Brunch-Menu.pdf and displayed on screen above the bar, the brunch menu is off until January. The full lunch menu was tasty but too much bread and leaves for what you're paying.

25/11/2025: Good service, well sized portions.

24/11/2025: Its my Go to places each time I come to Glasnevin

17/11/2024: I was tonight in the restaurant to order and collect my food for takeaway. I did order the cannelloni with ricotta and spinach and also pacchero alla Norcina and I have to say…. It’s the best pasta we had in the Island for sure. 1000% recommended

02/11/2024: Delicious pasta and Amazing staff! I'll be back soon, the tiramisù is highly recommended. Grazie mille! :)

27/06/2025: Laurel in Blackrock is a fantastic restaurant tucked away above the pub—a real hidden gem. The food is absolutely amazing, beautifully presented on elegant plates that make the whole experience feel special. Every dish was full of flavor and clearly made with care. The atmosphere upstairs is stylish and relaxed, perfect for a nice evening out. The only downside is the music, which comes from the pub below and doesn’t quite match the refined setting of the restaurant. Still, the quality of the food more than makes up for it. Definitely worth a visit!

27/06/2025: Pleasant layout above the pub, so you can have a drink before or after your meal. Our party of five can heartily recommend the specials at 35 euros for three courses, the fish dishes in particular were excellent. Service was very good. Interestingly, there were no condiments on the table, perhaps it's a culinary statement but as the seasoning was good there was no issue. Reasonable wine list. Definitely worth a visit.

27/10/2025: Got guff here from one of the staff for using my laptop, although I had a couple of coffees and cakes during the week, although their silly laptop rule only stated at the weekend.

25/10/2025: Hi, I'm a long-time regular here and I really appreciate the quality you usually maintain. I wanted to flag something recently: I always order the espresso but lately, the consistency has been off. The last few times, it has tasted distinctly sour and lacking clarity, especially compared to how great it was just a few weeks ago. Since I order the same thing every time, I can really notice the shift. I tried to tell the staff, but got an exact same sour shot again, I didn’t drink it.

28/11/2025: Walked into Kenny's pub at 7:15 pm for a drink and two thirds of the tables are empty and reserved. And no free tables. If you didn't reserve don't bother going. Go to one of the other pubs in the area.

11/11/2025: as a frequent customer calling anytime on the journey from galway to dublin we called again today...... only to be totally disappointed. we didnt know about revovations and kitchen was closed. we were offered a sandwhich but service chatoic and then a butcher walk through coffee shop woth raw meat oh my god my stomach. next we were charged 27euro for 2 ham and cheese sandwhich a two coffee..... nobody asked how we would like our sandwhich some came on white soft rool with relish which we dont like. my husband walked outside threw his sandwhich in the bin while i complained to be told oh nobody every complained before so basically my opinion didnt matter and cost me 27.50. unfortuantely this is the end of our "relationship" with kennys of lucan

01/11/2025: I have nothing but love for this place! The service is top notch, staff is lovely and welcoming. They treat the customers really nice. Pub quiz on Wednesdays’s super fun. I’d visit this place again and again.

23/10/2025: Haven't tried the food, but the staff are brilliant, and the pint is really good.

15/10/2025: We are travelling in Ierland with school en omg i haven't eat so good in a long time, the music was on fire and the service was so good and everyone was so nice. I would litterly go back to this place, i have to!!

13/10/2025: Dined twice here. Great food and friendly service. Handy location to our hotel as well.

07/11/2025: The nicest scone I have ever had. Absolutely yum. Also really friendly staff.

05/11/2025: We love visiting Farmleigh but we will definitely not be stopping by this restaurant again after paying €16 for two coffees and two very average slices of cake.

27/11/2025: Wow what an incredible stay during the nfl Europe game. Concierge, bar staff, front reception all were extremely helpful, accommodating friendly etc. At one point we were escorted to the recommended pub! Aside from the excellent customer service, the room sizes are massive! Not typical European rooms! Location is A+ with one of the best pizza spots in the world across the street!

23/11/2025: Fantastic stay and experience at the Grafton. From the moment we arrived, we knew it was going to be a great stay as the front desk folks and concierge were warm, friendly and easy to chat with. Room was impeccable and the private terrace was a perfect retreat on our last few days in Ireland. If visiting Dublin in the future, we will absolutely be back. Thanks for a great stay!

03/10/2025: A regular dinner spot. Delicious food and good pint of Guinness 💕

04/09/2025: Lovely Spot for Food, Just get There.

26/11/2025: Food was so delicious, portions are large, flavor so authentic, serves friendly, chilled vibe. Perfect for lunch or dinner gathering with friends.

22/11/2025: Great meal fantastic service from miss Yee and May will be coming again due to how nice they made the experience.

04/10/2025: Chai latte isn’t great, was given wrong food order and had only noticed when I had left, staff dismissive and standing around talking

30/09/2025: My favourite place for Acai bowl and hot chocolate. So far, Tribe has the best Acai in Dublin after testing several of them. Don’t walk, run!
