The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

05/07/2025: This is a beautiful popular pub. But it's soo much more. Watching Bar staff interact with elderly regulars was a master class in community care and importance pubs have for elderly members. Food is exceptional. Nothing beats their.roast bit seafood pasta is also stunning. Well worth visit. Not a Whiskey drinker but suspect the bar is the best variety in the country from all the Irish greats to Top Bourbons there's something for everyone. No i was not paid for this but after a bad meal in a 5 Star hotel close by I think it deserved the shout out.

13/06/2025: Amabilidad de cinco estrellas, servicio de cinco estrellas, comida de cinco estrellas y personal de seis estrellas! La gerente, Jacqueline era muy atento y nada era demasiado problema. Para todos nuestros desayunos nos atendió Adithya, una joven con un carisma y disposición maravillosa. Como resultado, nuestros desayunos fueron un punto culminante del día. La elección del desayuno buffet fue realmente excepcional.

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

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.

29/05/2025: Amazing from start to finish. We went for my daughters Confirmation and they made it so special for her with their personal touch and delicious food. Thank you so much.

28/05/2025: THE WORST DINING EXPERIENCE EVER, an absolute disgrace to the so called management. The restaurant was busy with a confirmation when we arrived which was fine but once the group of about 25 adults & over 20 children finishing eating, the restaurant turned into what I can only describe as a circus with both teenagers & younger kids literally running up & down between the tables chasing & shouting at each other. Children are naturally noisy & boisterous when they get together but we werent in McDonalds and not one parent told their kids to sit down or be somewhat quiet & no respect was shown for us and other paying customers who had trouble having a conversation because of the volume of shouting.While the staff had trouble accessing the other tables to serve food, we were amazed that the manageress watched on & did absolutely nothing to address the situation. When we complained she simply agreed that the behaviour in a restaurant setting was out of order & blamed the parents for not keeping their children under contol. I blame the management for their inaction in allowing it to happen. I have no problem with children's parties but I certainly don't want to sit in the middle of one to eat my dinner & pay restaurant prices for it.

01/07/2025: Lovely coffee but charging .50 cent extra for ice is insane, it’s frozen water

31/05/2025: Fabulous brunch spot. Our server joked around with us and made us feel right at home. Delicious soup, toast, sandwiches, and coffee. Decoration is lovely and seating is comfortable.

20/05/2025: Good pints and good pool table near tv screens with sports on. Can't go wrong 😁

20/04/2025: Best pint of Carlsberg in Ireland

19/07/2025: The revival of the historic house is beautiful, with charming buildings and rooms. However, the bar was lacking during our visit. The biggest issue was breakfast — it had to be ordered individually and took nearly an hour. We had a frustrating experience with breakfast. We asked to eat at 08:00, but ended up waiting 1 hour and 15 minutes — with children under 10 years old. This was far from ideal. Later, we found out there's a café less than a 15-minute walk away where we could have had a breakfast insted. All in all, it was quite disappointing, and we will probably not return.

15/04/2025: This property is very beautiful the location is really great however this hotel is not suitable for older people. The breakfast service was very terrible as we constantly felt rushed even though the hotel was fully and we did not get our seat promptly. I absolutely have no issues waiting for a table because I understand that the hotel was fully booked and busy however as soon as we sat down we felt extremely rushed both days that we ate there. The breakfast was tasty though. We asked for clean towels to be set in our room and when we got back the towels that they had replaced were extremely dirty and had brown spots on them. I told front desk about this and I thought they were going to notify the manager but they never did. We went there with my parents who needed help with their luggage since there are a lot of stairs in this property. The stairs are completely fine and it was in the listing so I completely understood. However when we went to the front desk to ask for assistance for my parents to help them with their luggage the front desk person was sleeping in the lobby we did not offer to help us at all. This was extremely unprofessional considering that my parents were older, and we had been told the front desk offer is 24 seven and they did not help us with their luggage at all. Overall the properties very beautiful but the staff is horrendous. I’ve never the type of person to leave a negative review but this truly blew my mind how terrible the service was.

03/06/2025: We recently hosted our Day 2 of our wedding in the river terrace of Ashtons, and to say the team went above and beyond would be an understatement! We went for the BBQ option and the food was incredible (and plentiful!) and every single member of the Ashtons team were so lovely, and so attentive to all of our guests. We had a number of guests coming up to us making comments about how well run the whole event was! I couldn’t recommend it more for anyone booking an event, Gerry and the team were fantastic to work with.

07/03/2025: —- Oh guys what happened? Was going there for years and used to be great but now very disappointing! —- I know your in middle of renovations, but portion for chicken supreme was pigeon leg sized and in red wine gravy and mash… ehh and chicken supreme is usually in a white creamy sauce? Too expensive shrink-flationed portions! Bridges burnt won’t return.

12/07/2025: Fresh fish. Fish really good but very small portions compared with fairly high prices

25/06/2025: no notes about this place. every day i wake up i ask myself ‘is it time for some beshoffs?’. the answer is always yes😂 staff so kind and welcoming!

09/07/2025: This is my second negative review. Having previously enjoyed Cafe Du Journal many times I really don’t understand how the place has deteriorated so much. I am actually quite forgiving and relaxed where service is concerned. People can have a bad day, staffing can be difficult and turnover can be high. However I decided to give them a second chance, having not returned to Monkstown after a bad experience, we decided to give the new Glasthule venture a go. Very poor. Untrained staff. Won’t return again as management really don’t seem to care. No response to my previous review and it seems no response to many others who share my views. Pity as we would be very regular customers, particularly to Glasthule which is local to us. Seems like a missed opportunity as it could be fab with a little more attention

05/07/2025: Food was delicious, great pizza, superb Chianti. The staff were professional but really warm and friendly. It’s rare to get service this good but here they’re in the top two restaurants in Glasthule for great staff and service which coincidentally bookend the main Street in Glasthule.

01/07/2025: For the first time I recently visited it and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing due to the cashier's behavior. From the moment we approached the counter, she was incredibly rude and unwelcoming. It felt as though she expected us to be familiar with their entire ordering process, even though it was our first time there. Instead of explaining to us or answering our questions, she became visibly frustrated. The situation escalated when, instead of simply resolving a minor issue, she launched into an unnecessary rant, making the entire interaction far more uncomfortable and prolonged than it needed to be. The food was very good, but due to the poor customer service I received at the front counter has left a lasting negative impression, and I likely won't be returning to this KC.

29/06/2025: The cashier was very aggressive with my friend

09/01/2025: Have been there years ago . Back in Dublin I would stay there again

09/07/2025: Nice atmosphere, very lovely staff, food was very good as well.

07/06/2025: Well cared for by my waiter, Tam. Had a vegetarian pizza,€17. Very large restaurant and bar.

13/03/2025: Myos ahora está dirigido por "Estudiantes" temporales. Guinnes es una basura. El lugar "BAR" es ahora un lugar de descanso antes de que los clientes PASEN.

12/03/2025: Staff is very kind, beer is excellent and they have 2 environment (young people & music / old people & chill. 100% recommended

18/06/2025: Fantastic experience - we booked a family for a christening 20 people and Khan looked after us, we needed for nothing and the food was superb. 10/10

11/06/2025: I took my father here this evening - to the Terrace - and had a great time. We had tried to book a window seat, but upon arrival there were none available. The wonderful front of house said he would do everything to help us. I had told him it was an early father's day dinner for my dad. We were seated in a non window seat initially, but within 15 minutes, due to a no show, he moved us to a 4-top, but made it for just the two of us. My dad had the Dublin Bay Prawn Scampi, and loved every second of it (his appetite can be off, so it was brilliant to see!). I ordered the burger (without pickles), but it arrived with pickles which put me off a little. I removed them from the plate and one of the hostesses asked if everything was OK (truly I didn't really enjoy the burger..too much sauce and the pickle residue was still lingering on the burger) and I just told her it's lovely but I asked for no pickles (I didn't want to ask for a fresh order bc it seemed ridiculous!). She came back later in the meal to say the desserts were going to be on the house - I tried to protest and say it's not a problem, but when the bill came, they weren't there. As a result I left a very generous tip for the servers. The desserts were delicious. Dad had the sticky toffee pudding and I had the meringue roulade (very sweet, but I had room after not finishing my burger). All in all the service was hit and miss (we were neglected a bit at the beginning in favour of the bigger, more demanding tables, and I had asked for a sauce top up which came after we had finished - but I understand they were under pressure), but the managers really stepped up and made it a special night. My dad, most importantly, has been waxing lyrical about it since. They also had a good selection of non-alcoholic wines for him, which was really refreshing. I would definitely go back again - and order the scampi!! Top top marks to the fronts of house...you made it a lovely evening.

24/07/2025: The food is incredible and the prices are super affordable.

20/07/2025: Came for tea and scones. It took almost an hour for it to come out. They only brought 2 of the three teapots we ordered. When we asked for the third they told us they put two tea bags in one of the tea pots. That just makes strong tea, not more tea. Finally they brought the other tea pot upon our insistence. The Earl Grey was just gross, it tasted like soap. We asked for honey and milk with the tea, they informed us that they don't have any honey at all. We had to ask twice for the milk. The scones were dense and they brought whipped cream instead of clotted cream. For an establishment that calls itself a tea house it was anything but. Very disappointed in all respects. The service was slow and bad at that. The tea and food were subpar. Save your time, money, and frustration by going elsewhere.
