The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

07/01/2026: First time in here today. Loved it. Steak sandwich was a thing of beauty. Will be back again.

31/12/2025: Have had great meals here, mediocre meals and sub-par meals. Service has always been top notch regardless of the quality of the food and whenever food has been bad the floor staff make up for it massively

18/01/2026: We had a lovely meal on a Friday evening, found a cozy spot on the couches. The food was delicious, we had pizza the huge goat cheese salad, and wedges. We had one desert between us, apple pie and two coffees. The bill was just over €50 which was very reasonable. The staff were under a bit of pressure, but they did their best.

01/01/2026: They literally saved our new year's eve 🎊 the place where we originally booked a table was overcrowded and we really thought we wouldn't be able to find a place somewhere else.. but in the end we got a table at the dog's house restaurant in 10min 😁 Food and service were excellent 👌 Thank you !

01/08/2025: Assolutamente da provare. Si trova nel pieno di Temple Bar ma, a differenza di altri locali, qui non c'è il frastuono della musica live. Cibi squisiti e personale simpatico e molto veloce. Noi abbiamo provato la beef stuve, super buona. Se andate nelle serate di grande afflusso dovete avere pazienza, c'è da fare un pò di fila, ma ne vale assolutamente la pena.

30/07/2025: Nachdem wir 30 Min. auf der Strasse auf unseren reservierten Tisch gewartet haben, war das Erlebte dann wirklich nicht sehr gemütlich. Chaotische Zustände im Restaurant. Bierfässer werden im Gastraum und den Toiletten gelagert. Der Burger war trocken, unterstes Level. Ambiente, ist nicht vorhanden eingepfercht wie Tiere. Das Ganze ist einfach eine gut organisierte Abzocke.

23/11/2025: Lovely restaurant and bar area but really bad food. Completely empty on what should be a busy Sunday afternoon. Tasteless desserts, fatty beef roast. A pity as venue looks great and staff lovely. Fitzpatricks is patchy to say the least - from some angles hotel looks incredible, from others it is semi-derelict, covered in moss and damp.

16/11/2025: The food was absolutely delicios! Service was Amazing. Thank you Thomas and Sara for making our celebration so special! I highly recommend visiting!

16/10/2025: Lovely place, great service. The restaurant in great with excellent space and location. Good options in the menu and food was amazing. Recommended.

12/10/2025: Visited here with my partner and baby. He ordered Lasagna, the lasagna was stone cold in the middle with hard cheese on top. We had to return it to the kitchen and he felt stomach turned so didn’t request new food. I ordered fish and chips, the chips were nice but the fish was slimy and wet, I thought this was normal as it was hot right through. I felt so sick shortly after my food for the whole night. So disappointing…. We also waited 30 mins for a menu my partner had to go twice and ask, also left waiting 5 mins on knifes and forks. Awful food and service.

11/01/2026: We had lunch here one Sunday when out for a walk. The food was lovely with the exception of the fries, which could have been crispier. The service was mostly good and the place was busy with a good atmosphere. On the negative side the coffee and hot chocolate arrived too early and were cold by the time our food arrived. The rustic apple pie we shared at the end was tasty but arrived cold and on its own even though they had said they would heat it up and serve it with cream. It was rectified for us quickly enough.

01/01/2026: Great food for Sunday afternoon !

01/11/2025: Nice food and coffee but the service and clearing of tables leaves a lot to be desired. So many occupied tables with clearly empty plates and cups were not removed. I even saw come customers clear a table themselves before sitting down. Also, the waitress delivered a coffee to my friend and spilled it all over the saucer. Didn't even apologise nor offer to clear it up. Very disappointing.

30/10/2025: Nice cute spot with lots of seating.

08/12/2025: Well, we went there as a last resort because we planned to go somewhere else for a coffee, and my god we were surprised. The place is really great, coffee is fantastic (I had mocha) and their chocolate cheese cake is out of this world. I will be back there again.

07/12/2025: Lovely breakfast spot. Coffee absolutely amazing.

12/12/2025: Good quality fish and chips, as well as some pizza options, such as vegetarian and pepperoni. The place is quite expensive, €20 for fish and chips, which is understandable considering the cost of living there, but not for the portion size. The staff's service could be much better, and at times they were overly attentive when entering the PIN on the card reader (suspiciously, the contactless wasn't working). They're the kind of fixed kiosks you can't touch to protect your PIN. We didn't like what happened. Nor did we appreciate waiting over 30 minutes to be served. It's located away from the main pedestrian area, so the atmosphere in this area is less touristy, and you can find "all sorts" of places. Not recommended unless you go during the day, pay in cash, and order takeaway.

07/12/2025: Family all got upset tummy after our pizza

25/08/2025: Love this place for years. Unfortunately bar staff Steve came in pints are not the same so the customers say.

22/08/2025: Was there for all ireland football final .. didn't open untill 1230 .. can't believe they don't look for exemption for the 2 finals .. people queuing outside for 2 hours to get in ..

23/12/2025: I absolutely love their Spice Bag and the overall vibe of the place! PS: The last time I checked, Spice Bag is not available on Mondays. A friend and I have visited them separately, both on Mondays, to be told it's not available on Mondays.

18/11/2025: it’s such a great place. The more you walk into the bar the more you are amazed. Great live music, good prizes, cool dance floor. I think it’s 23+ though…

04/01/2026: A spot I've frequented over the last decade but not as much in recent years , the food is still as good as ever , big fan of the chicken wings , even though the price has only gone up and the portion gotten smaller . 20 euro for a Caesar salad is also a bit steep even in a cost of living crisis

28/12/2025: Update: (06 11 2025) €2.00 price hike, this is second increase in less than 6 months. So now for a mini meal/half meal it is €14.50 for extremely small portions. Shame this place is getting so expensive now. You are not forewarned either, you are told when paying.

02/01/2026: 8 months pregnant waiting 20 minutes at the bar to be looked after, my uncles funeral and was spoken to horribly and told they were short staffed so there was nothing they could do but staff walking around chatting very bad service horrible staff wouldn’t waste me money here

21/12/2025: Soup and sambos are lovely, decent pint too

14/03/2025: Good food and good service. Very pleasant.

12/03/2025: El lugar era caótico debido al sistema en vigor. Conseguir comida y luego hacer cola para pagar significaba que la comida estaba fría, especialmente cuando la persona continuaba hasta que tomó siglos tratar de encontrar artículos. La comida tenía potencial para ser bueno, pero el servicio lo decepcionó.
