The best restaurants in Dublin

08/01/2026: Really disappointed with the food, we had the bruschetta and prawn starters and carbonara and arriabata pasta for mains and the sauce was not a good standard. The sauce was very thick and 'gloopy' lacking a lot of flavour. Can't believe the food given some of the reviews, couldn't possibly try again.

31/12/2025: This establishment consistently delivers the finest pizzas in Dublin, and I hold it in high regard. Best of the best!

20/01/2026: Food is always great here, and always packed with people so make sure to make a reservation.

18/01/2026: Big fan of the French toast and eggs Benedict

26/11/2025: Great cafe 👏 Staff lovely deffo recommended

18/11/2025: I went in here today and was blown away by the value, quality and friendless of the owners. Pots of tea they give filled my cup up three times.

13/12/2025: The hot latte was really good 🩷^_^ The curry was delicious and served piping hot. I would definitely go back. Very nice place 🩷

13/12/2025: Ordered food online at 6:20pm and received a confirmation stating it would be ready in 20 minutes. Arrived to collect at 6:50pm and was left standing there for another 10 minutes with no update. After repeatedly asking about the order, I was finally asked “what was your name again?” and then told they couldn’t find the order and that it must have been missed. At that point it was nearly 50 minutes after ordering. No apology, no explanation, and no gesture of goodwill — just asked if I wanted to wait again while they cooked it from scratch. Very poor service and complete lack of customer care. Won’t be returning

30/12/2025: Visited Indian tiffin seeing the reviews... Expectations not met. Found the food average compared to the high prices. Idli set was worth the price. Didn't feel the authentic texture and fluffiness of bature, probably the wrong dough was used for the bature. The veg thali was average.

25/12/2025: We ordered a Lamb byriany and a butter chicken The food was so fresh and tasty 10 out of 10 absolute recommend literally the best Indian Restaurant I have ever been to my life

04/12/2025: Excellent food and Atmosphere. Always very enjoyable with attentive Staff..

27/10/2025: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem in Foxrock Village From the moment you walk through the door, you’re greeted with a warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming reception exactly what every great restaurant should have. We were shown straight to our table and given plenty of time to look over the lunch/dinner menu, which had a fantastic selection of dishes, all very reasonably priced. This was my first visit to this restaurant in Foxrock Village, and I sincerely hope it won’t be my last. I went for the goat’s cheese to start, followed by the roast beef for my main course, and finished with the apple crumble for dessert all perfectly cooked and full of flavour. The meal was beautifully complemented by a lovely bottle of red wine. From the warm welcome to the attentive service and delicious food, everything was spot on. A solid 10 out of 10.

18/01/2026: I’m Asian and I came to this Irish pub with my friend (who is Black) just to grab some drinks after dinner. Honestly this was one of the worst bar experiences I’ve ever had. First of all, the place itself was already a huge turn-off. It felt dirty, messy, and the smell inside was really unpleasant the moment we walked in. Now let’s talk about the service — or lack of it. I stood at the bar trying to order a drink and was completely ignored for a long time. No bartender came over, no eye contact, nothing. While waiting, I checked my phone for less than 30 seconds (I’m 100% sure about that), and suddenly a big guy in a grey shirt — one of the bartenders — yelled at me, saying something like: “If you’re on your phone, why are you standing at the bar?” Excuse me??? No one was serving me, I was just standing there waiting. Is yelling at customers part of this pub’s culture now? After that for another 10 minutes, no one asked me what I wanted to drink. I was standing there feeling awkward and honestly a bit intimidated — even afraid to look at my phone again in case I got yelled at one more time. Bartenders kept walking back and forth right in front of me and still completely ignored me. What’s even more embarrassing is that a random elderly gentleman sitting at the bar felt so bad for me that he had to speak up for me. He told a young Irish bartender that I had been waiting for a long time. Thank god only then was I finally able to order a drink. When I told my friend what happened she said her experience was basically the same. She also waited forever to order, no one acknowledged her at all. And at that moment, she was literally the only person standing at the bar. The same young Irish bartender still had the audacity to ask, “Who was first?” Like… do you even know what you’re doing? At this point, it really felt like more than just bad service. It felt like clear discrimination. If this place is already this hostile to people of color, maybe just be honest and put a sign at the door saying: “People of color not welcome. Irish people only.” I paid for my drinks as everyone here. I was a customer. What exactly did I do to deserve being treated like this? I genuinely hope the manager sees this review and reaches out to me. I deserve an explanation as to why I was treated this way after paying money to be in your bar.

16/01/2026: Was packed, service was terrible and young lads doing Charlie in the jax while i was trying to have a Jimmy riddle

24/12/2025: great stop for a coffee and cake

11/12/2025: Delicious ham&cheese sandwich 🥪 Fab coffee...quick and easy drive thru with quality products!

03/02/2026: Awful experience owner has no tolerance for babies….. he won’t allow babies to be past a certain area in his restaurant. He sits and stares at you while you’re trying to eat with your baby. I was extremely unnerved and upset while in this restaurant I wouldn’t recommend eating hete No high chair. Food was not up to the standard of a basic Italian take away Save your money and go elsewhere All starters were pre made

27/11/2025: Delicious food and fast service. We chose the three-course menu with a starter, main course, and dessert. Excellent value for money, and complimentary water was included.

17/11/2025: We were a group of 4 having a few beers during a football match 😁🍺 enjoyed the surroundings and place very much 🍺 recommended 👍

08/02/2026: Although it’s very beautiful, you Can’t ever get into the place. Reservations only?? Can’t just go to the pub anymore without a reservation. It’s madness. The food is only ok too.

07/02/2026: Ordered food and waited 50 minutes before it was served. Staff nice but run off their feet. Food was good but expensive
