The best restaurants in Dublin

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.

07/01/2026: I had an amazing work lunch here with a few drinks.. food and service was amazing.. super friendly staff..

04/01/2026: It was fantastic experience spending a day and night in St. Helen's hotel. 2 rooms we got were clean, comfortable and classy. Breakfast in the morning with a fantastic service. Gardens are well maintained even in the winter. Christmas decorations made the place magical and the big Christmas tree in the lobby was stunning. Hotel definitely worth recommending.

17/03/2026: We have eaten in Mao twice in the last two weeks, and each visit has been a joy. We are used to going to Musashi and were hoping it would be on par as Mao is more convenient for us. It exceeded our expectations. The meat (duck, beef, prawn, and chicken) was so flavoursome and cooked to perfection; the vegetables were so fresh; and the portion sizes were great (almost too good, as we couldn't fit in a dessert). The atmosphere was relaxed (perfect for families), and there is a good distance between tables, so noise or overbearing conversations aren't an issue. The staff were also so nice and accommodating. We'll definitely be visiting more regularly. Well done to all staff.

17/03/2026: Amazing food, even better service! ​Had a brilliant lunch at Mao recently. The ambiance is super cozy yet classy. We tucked into spring rolls, fries, Tofu Pad Thai, and a rich Thai Red Curry-all of which were 10/10. ​The real highlight, though, was the staff. They are so polite and truly make the experience special. Plus, parking is a breeze in Stillorgan Village. I’ll definitely be back!

13/11/2025: First visit and was absolutely delighted with the genuinely friendly service. Very relaxed atmosphere too. Food was great except the fish was quite bland, only complaint. Cocktails 🤪!! just to enjoyable, 😁 so again, really nice host and staff, best we've came across for quite a while, so would definitely recommend🍸🍹🍷🍺🥧

02/11/2025: Please update your menu online to reflect actual menu presented. All I was going to order having looked prior to going was not listed on the night I was there. Was very disappointed. What I had in the end was fine however.

25/11/2025: Lovely place to watch the planes flying in and out. Great menu with wide selection of excellent meals.

23/11/2025: Vito the bartender provided fantastic and friendly service

09/03/2026: The food was absolutely stunning. We had a three course meal each, and every dish was fantastic. The service was great too, and the overall atmosphere of the place was lovely. Absolutely worth the trip.

09/03/2026: Lovely restaurant, great atmodphere, delicious authentic food and excellent service. Very reasonnably priced early bird menu.

02/03/2026: some of the best italian food i’ve ever had. i got the ravioli campano & my husband got the carbonara. both of our eyes rolled back from how good the food was. absolutely come here for 10/10 italian food

13/02/2026: A brilliant, totally authentic and buzzy pizzeria that also does other dishes. It is rare to find ingredients that transported me back to Italy - particularly the guanciale on my Rustica pizza

10/11/2025: Never once have seen vegan pizza here. Don’t you feel like clowns putting out an empty tray every day? Just get rid of it and your performative nonsense.

27/10/2025: Very happy with our lunch break, plentiful, inexpensive and the boss is very kind.

19/10/2025: Great Service and price. Vegetarian, vegan and glutenfree friendly. Would recommend if you are looking for an affordable lunch or breakfast menu.

04/10/2025: Great place for some good light lunch bites, friendly staff, fairly cheap, buzzing atmosphere, food was delicious and quite varied in the range of menu items. I'd definitely recommend a trip in here if you fancy a coffee and a chat or a light bite. I'll be returning.

23/12/2025: In the end, I wasn't a big fan of the Bubble waffle batter. I'd recommend the flat waffle that my wife and kids chose instead.

04/12/2025: It’s one of my favorite places to visit. I’ve tried ordering their food before and I really liked it. After trying their waffles, I actually became a waffle lover they’re incredibly delicious♥️. It’s definitely one of the places I’ll keep coming back to. Do you have any kind of loyalty or regular customer discount card?😊

23/02/2026: Great deli and fresh food options.

17/02/2026: Great place for takeaway foods and coffee staff are brilliant every helpful would recommend Donnybrook fair to my pals and family

31/12/2025: Its something different alright

28/12/2025: My second home whenever I visit Dublin post dip coffee and beautiful relaxed sauna selection of treats and nibbles or meal from the dinner .

08/03/2026: Delicious food and a lovely dinner. Giggling teenagers aside, it's fine and fun. Part of a chain.

02/02/2026: Great place to have a nice meal. Service was fast and staff was friendly. Food was delicious. I would definitely come back if in the area. I think 4.1 overall stars don't do them justice. I think if you want American diner experience and tasty food then step inside.

19/09/2025: Great pub great Atmosphere bring me back to when pubs where pubs. Will visit again.

04/09/2025: Best pint of beamish I've ever had ... bar men look the part and know their trade ... really enjoyed it
