The best restaurants in Dublin

14/05/2025: Excellent, fast, efficient, I recommend

13/05/2025: I have been to zakura a few times and Sushi is nice here but everything else I have tried is so bad. And it’s so expensive for the taste they serve. Had their seafood ramen today and it was the worst seafood ramen I have ever had in my life. The shrimp in it tasted weird, broth was not good at all, even the fish cakes tasted stale. It was full of noodles and barely any seafood, couldn’t finish it despite my best wishes to not waste food.

03/05/2025: Just outstanding food all round

30/04/2025: If I could give it 10/5, I would. Dining at 3 Leaves in Blackrock was an unforgettable experience! We were a group of six and ordered a wide range of dishes to share. Every single one was absolutely PERFECT. So much flavour in everything, perfectly cooked, beautifully presented. You can tell how much care goes into the food. It was my first time there, but my boyfriend and his family have been many times and always speak so highly of it. I’m so happy I finally got to see what all the rave was about, and even with all the praise, it still managed to exceed every expectation I had. Millie was amazing. So friendly and attentive, and really made the whole experience feel even more special. I honestly wish I could eat here every week. So if you haven’t been, go. I can’t recommend it enough!

30/04/2025: Authentic Italian experience, lovely staff, amazing food!

25/04/2025: My husband and I went to Grano in April. Having booked in early January we were really looking forward to the experience based on the reviews. We were NOT disappointed! It was everything we were hoping for and more. The food was amazing! The different plates (nibbles, starters, mains) were so typically Italian, we felt we were back in Italy. I had olives & deep fried meatballs as starter and delicious Ravioli parcels for mains. My husband's starter was Scaldanduja (a spicy sausage which he thoroughly enjoyed and his main course was a pasta dish, with sausage, and a tomato based sauce. The atmosphere in Grano is exciting - a great ‘Buzz’ to the place, Our server Luna was really friendly (as were all the staff). Luna was very patient helping us choose a wine which would pair well with the food we had ordered (not an easy task as they have a truly extensive, wine list with wines from all parts of Italy). The bottle she recommended was delicious and perfect with our food. Dessert was ‘yummy’. I chose a Choc Coffee Mousse with Amaretto while my husband had an Almond sponge with white chocolate ganache and a Bergamot sauce. I’m not sure of the correct title of either of these desserts but they were both delicious. A very definite 5 stars! We can’t wait to go again and look forward to making another reservation SOON!

11/05/2025: A bit more work on the seating perhaps but food is good, served by a great team! Extra stars for Arianna!

06/05/2025: I attended this lovely cafe in occasion of an afternoon date. My partner and I ordered a couple of sandwiches, coffees and a plate of little pastries. We were particularly impressed by the sandwiches and how tasty they were. We chose to have them toasted and dine-in which was a great choice as we really enjoyed them. The pastries were excellent and our favourite was the caramel flan. We will definitely be back to try more cakes and the ice-creams!

22/04/2025: Beautiful friendly traditional Irish pub. Great service and friendly people. Good pint of guinesd

15/04/2025: Thank you for making my trip. I dropped in for a quick Pint and spent a day in this wonderful pub. Auld Dublin at it's best . Thank you to the Barman & owner and customers for such a great Visit. A proper Dublin Pub.

08/05/2025: I can't explain the joy I felt dining there! The food was truly spectacular. The ambiance was also amazing, it felt like a little time capsule outside Dublin. My friend had many vegetarian options to go for and was happy that all of them were still very authentically Palestinian. I can't recommend the kefta enough, that was seasoned to perfection, we still talk about it! Our kunafa was homemade, cheese included. Our waitress was also incredibly kind and helpful. Thank you for such a wonderful dinner, I will be chasing that high for a while! ♥️ حرروا فلسطين

30/04/2025: Delicious food and lovely staff and atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back and trying more 🙂

01/05/2025: Great food and selection of drinks, great location, expensive, but thats not main issue, it's a contender for worst service in Dublin; if its busy expect to wait about 30 mins for drinks/food. huge staff but seems to be a few running around working manically while loads of others stand around watching. live in area, always been like this

01/05/2025: Very nice place, warm atmosphere and attentive staff! Thank you for this welcome. I will Como back.

23/05/2025: We wanted to try to new A La Carte menu at Mr Fox so booked tickets at the Gate theatre and decided to go before the play. We arrived just after 5 and sat in the outdoor area. It was glorious evening and the outdoor area catches the evening sun so perfect for a pre-dinner drink. We decided to stay outdoors for dinner as it was so warm. We had the beer battered langoustines to start and they're melt in the mouth delicious. They had just introduced the tiger prawn as a starter as we went for it and boy they're amazing. Enormous so one each was plenty for us. I had the short rib beef and herself had the cod. The short rib was incredible and I was assured the cod was equally incredible. We finished off with a creme brulée and it was probably the nicest I've ever had. A perfect end. We then had plenty of time to wander around to the Gate to enjoy the play, Lovesong, which btw was brilliant. Well done Mr Fox.

26/04/2025: A set menu that I would not recommend, food was tasteless the price 100euro per person is absolutely crazy for the little bit you get I would not recommend going here there is so many more amazing restaurants in dublin.

19/05/2025: This is my favourite pub in Dublin, sadly I don't get to visit as often as i like as i live on the other side of the city these days. It's always a pleasure visiting, incredible pints of Guinness, and the service is always great. Would highly recommend it

18/05/2025: This quiet and dignified pub is a real South Dublin gem. From the comfy furnishings to the excellent and friendly staff, to the delicious toasties and best of all a truly cracking pint. One of the best Guinness in Dublin and at a reasonable price. Nothing bad to say about the lovely Galloper

26/04/2025: One of my favourite Italian restaurants in the Dublin area, from now on. Yes... it is so good.

25/04/2025: Myself and my partner had a wonderful time. From the food to the staff it was fantastic. Would definitely recommend making a booking as it is a tiny little restraunt but it was well worth it. Thank you for a fantastic evening guys. We'll definitely be back ❤️

03/05/2025: Little off the tourist path, feels real authentic local place. Prices are very good, great service!

02/05/2025: I loved it!!! A place full of places with a 100% Irish atmosphere. Delicious, abundant food and good price. The service is very friendly and so are the customers.

10/05/2025: Typical Irish breakfast, super good and inexpensive

08/05/2025: We liked this so much my spouse and I ate here twice. The porridge was delicious. The Irish full breakfast was also good but my favorite was the porridge. Price was reasonable for what we ordered. The second time we ate here was on our last day in Dublin, the server gave us Irish bread to try as a gift which was sweet of him. I liked how homey and comfortable this cafe felt.

15/05/2025: Absolutely top-notch restaurant. Beautifully decorated, intimate atmosphere and excellent food. Highly recommended, I'll be back!

06/05/2025: Very unique dining experience. Expensive but well worth the money. Steak was perfect

18/05/2025: The place that makes the best cocktails I've ever had in my life.

17/05/2025: Shocking, can't believe this place is ranked 4.8 on Google, food very average, cheap meats as a meat selection, ok cheese , and oysters with a mild flavourless sauce ....and then when I wanted modify a cocktail by leaving out an item and I was told they were pre-made cocktails out of a packet 😳, I think the pretentious vibe is the attraction to people here.....I can't figure it out tbh.....people in a queue to get in and spend 16 euros on pre-made cocktails????? Cocktails were grand, nothing special at all...junkies from the hostel across the road begging for money from the clients outside and causing issues...great night though, hit pawn shop with a big stick and went to the casino and hit on 6 spins in a row in roulette, Happy to more than recoup my 150 snots bill from Bar 1661💪

17/05/2025: Nuestra primera noche en Dublín y quería experimentar un auténtico pub irlandés ... nuestro hotel recomendó JR Mahons que era un agradable paseo desde nuestro hotel. Nuestra experiencia fue más allá de lo esperado, desde el hermoso interior, personal atento, excelente comida y auténtica música irlandesa! Era una manera perfecta de comenzar o visitar Irlanda.

14/05/2025: The food is very good. We ordered the large plate for three people, which came with everything, and we were full by the time we were halfway through. While we ate, there was live music and Irish dancing. The waitress spoke Spanish, which helped us choose our dinner.
