The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

04/01/2026: A great querky bar. First class service and great drinks, other than the irish coffee, probably just not to our taste. Tubes of expanding foam and dcrews on one wall, tins of soup and rice pudding on the other 😀 Would definitely recommend. We didn't have food

26/12/2025: The only negative is that when you're ordering food The receipt printer was not working so you had to remember your order number, and there is no digital display with the order numbers that are ready. You had to hang around and listen for your number.

05/01/2026: What a cool spot. Definitely retro in the best way. The food and service was just incredible for a very reasonable price.

03/01/2026: Why mend what isn’t broken, still the best restaurant in Dublin for atmosphere ,food ,service ,nostalgia . If it is your first time to Dublin treat yourself.

18/01/2026: We had a lovely lunch at Bastible and the food was delicious. The portions however were really small (even for a tasting menu) and we unfortunately left hungry. We did enjoy our experience but it would be good if the staff didn’t rush you out - they took our final plates away and replaced it immediately with the bill and card reader which felt a little inhospitable for a Michelin restaurant. We found somewhere else for a coffee afterwards! Would still recommend for taste of the food.

17/01/2026: Honestly, this place is a total joke! It's not a Michelin star restaurant—more like a delusional minus star spot for wannabe rich people. The food? Absolutely appalling. We waited over two hours for the tiniest portions I've ever seen. I'm talking about plates that had one bite of food on them—there were four of us, and we barely had enough to eat! Every dish tasted the same, and we sadly went through seven of these microscopic plates. It felt like they just divided one sad piece of fish among the whole restaurant. And don’t get me started on the prices! It’s way overpriced for what you get. If you’re looking for a real dining experience, just skip this place and go to Guilbaud restaurant instead. Seriously, save your money and your appetite—this place is a complete ripoff .

03/01/2026: Excellent experience at La Maison! Friendly, accommodating and well trained staff. From the warm bread at the start served with a delicious pesto and Parmesan dip, to the beautiful homemade chocolate served with the bill, the food here is faultless. The scallops, especially the sauce they come in, is divine. We shared the sole and it was so tasty. The potatoes and salad served with it were great. Crème brûlée for dessert was the perfect end to the meal! We had some Vermintino wine also and it was the best wine I’ve had in a very long time. Merci!

03/01/2026: Phenomenal dinner spot in Dublin. One of the best French meals we have ever eaten. Flavors were delicious and complex. Valentina was a wonderful waitress and recommended the apple tart for dessert…wow! We are planning to visit another time before we leave.

06/01/2026: I organised our corporate end of year night in Suesey Street in 2024 and we had to return in 2025. From my first enquiry and booking with Emma to the end of night it is the perfect venue for us. The restaurant itself has a wonderful atmosphere, from the décor and the lovely warm welcome from John, you know you will have the best experience. Under the guidance of Mattia the staff are perfectly attentive, service is very polished and professional. Executive Chef Dino's menu is always above expectation. A considerate menu for all and no dietary requirement is a problem. We will be back in 2026!

15/12/2025: Lovely Atmosphere, Food Lacking This time This was my second visit to Suesey Street. On my first visit over a year ago, the food was excellent and the wine well balanced. Unfortunately, this time the food failed to impress. This is particularly disappointing as the restaurant has a great ambience, with pleasant background music, beautiful Christmas decorations, and genuinely good service. I had the mosaic salmon gravlax to start, which was nicely presented and enjoyable. For the main course, I ordered the cod with saffron sauce—again beautifully presented, but lacking in flavour. Both my friend and I left half of the dish untouched. The praline mousse dessert was also well presented but unremarkable in taste. Additionally, the cocktails were served only half full in a regular-sized cocktail glass, which was disappointing given the price.

15/01/2026: Fabulous food with a great mix of flavours and excellent presentation. Highly recommend.

08/01/2026: This was the second time we ate at the restaurant. It did not disappoint. We had the early dinner menu. I had the veal, cod and date pudding. My friend had the cauliflower soup, pork belly and cheese plate. All 6 of the dishes were very delicious. The wine list was extensive and reasonable. Will definitely go back again!

23/01/2026: Great place for music and atmosphere. The staff very friendly. Even the love birds

22/01/2026: A very nice Irish pub just steps from the city center. I liked both the place and the food. The staff were friendly and helpful, the prices were moderately high, in line with Dublin pubs. Vegan options are available, which is not always easy to find!

09/01/2026: Great place to grab a bite to eat and a cold pint to drink. The beef stew was the highlight but they have great alternative options.

24/12/2025: I had a Brownie! The server was awesome. I visited this place December 24th, at 17:00 and the place was super busy!

10/01/2026: I recently revisited this restaurant after about two years, and I’m pleasantly surprised by how much things have improved under the new management. During my last visit, I remember feeling let down by the service and the uneven quality of the food. This time, however, everything was completely different. The staff were genuinely welcoming and attentive without being intrusive, and the food was outstanding — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can tell there’s much more care put into every detail now, from the menu choices to the cleanliness of the dining area. Even the atmosphere feels brighter and more inviting. It’s wonderful to see a place turn itself around so completely. I’ll definitely be coming back soon and recommending it to friends.

02/01/2026: My husband and I would be a regular to Cavistons but went on New Years Eve before the fireworks, what a great way to end the year. The food was excellent as always, service was great and really lovely atmosphere. Always a delicious treat

05/01/2026: Dropped by here on a Saturday afternoon. Very lively bar with live music and loads of atmosphere. Highly recommend dropping by.

04/01/2026: A central pub where you can eat typical food, have a pint of Guinness, and listen to live music. We ordered fish and chips, chicken with whiskey sauce, and bacon and cabbage (I was pleasantly surprised). It's true that the prices are a bit high, but it's in Temple Bar, the most touristy area. We booked online because it was quite busy.

13/01/2026: This place is huge but also very cozy! Has comfortable seats and tables and great selection of draughts.

09/01/2026: Great gaff Patrick is some bloke

18/01/2026: AMAZING!! Highly recommended, excellent food and service.

17/01/2026: Came across this place breakfast was amazing and staff very friendly highly recommend

31/12/2025: Very impressed. I was out for a drive in howth with my youngest and I started feeling peckish, I decided to give house a try. I got the full Irish breakfast, no egg (I hate eggs) extra sausage and it was unreal. The sausage, bacon and black pudding ŵere amazing and at 12.50 great value. My daughter wasnt hungry but decided after my food had come, she wanted to try the sausage, we ended up placing an order for her. The breakfast was so good I returned two days later and plan to pop back over this weekend.

27/12/2025: After a cliff walk, we arrived at The House without reservations. We were seated and served really quickly. Brunch was great. Eggs Benedict, sweet potato fries, green salad. They were able to carry to my food allergies. Highly recommended.

29/12/2025: Very good place, great selection of drinks - tasty non alcoholic cocktails 🍸 Food was delicious: we tried scallops, they were absolutely delicious, 🤤 Followed by chicken and hamburger. The service is AMAZING! 5 🌟 We had to wait to our mains for around 1.5 h, which is quite intense. Nevertheless we were enjoying our lunch and would come again!

28/12/2025: Always great quality food and lovely staff.particularly recommend the scampi!

11/01/2026: We had an incredible experience! We ordered the 3 course menu, food was delicious and the price was fair. Barbara was our waitress, service was excelent throughout our entire meal. We look forward to go back soon, 10/10

11/01/2026: Very tasty food Liked the Steak
