Bar Italia
Dublin
18/05/2026: Arguably the best Italian restaurant in Ireland! Delicious food, authentic taste and ingredients - the quality of the pasta itself makes it worth a visit. Great friendly service, good selection of wines, really feels like a restaurant in Italy. Excellent!
18/05/2026: I really enjoyed my meal here, staff were very accommodating and managed to seat us even though we hadn't book (I would book though). It's an actual Italian rather than a Italian thats changed it menu to meet the needs of the tourists who pretend their Italian.
Don't order the Guinness.

Sexton's Bar
Limerick
06/04/2026: Heating in smoking area is on a timer. It's necessary to get up , open a door and find the switch which resets every few minutes resulting in an uncomfortable experience. Ambience is good and the staff are friendly. Beer price is at a slightly higher level.
02/04/2026: Pizzas and pints are excellent and staff are friendly, food comes out quickly & you have the front bar or out the back for different vibes.

25/04/2026: Food was magnificent! —Thank you, Giuseppe! You are an incredibly talented and creative chef! The tartufi and carbonara were perfect. And I've never had better sautéed mixed vegetables—so light and fresh and crisp and perfectly seasoned!
The drinks were fantastic! —Thank you, José. Tiramisu martini was incredible!
And the service was top notch first rate! Thank you Miguel!
Wonderful intimate atmosphere. Very nice decor.

The Blind Pig
Dublin
14/05/2026: We visited The Blind Pig Speakeasy twice during our recent trip to Dublin. Andrew was able to find seats for us even when things were busy, which we really appreciated. He was a great host — friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely happy to explain the history behind the cocktails on the menu.
We also requested a Vieux Carré, and he did an excellent job with it. The atmosphere, service, and attention to detail made this one of our favorite cocktail spots in Dublin. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a true speakeasy experience!
14/05/2026: Not sure how I knew about this fun place, but it was on our list to “to do” in Dublin. Omg! It was fantastic ! My friend and I shared the little pork sandwiches—don’t know the Italian name off the top of my head, but they were fantastic! Great great atomosphere! I would definitely go back and highly recommend it! Also probably get a reservation just to be safe. There is another speakeasy near it called the Little Pig that the waiter in the Blind Pig recommended which was also neat and fun!

La Piazza
Bray
24/04/2026: Came here because a friend recommended it,honestly wish I hadn’t bothered.
Walked in on my own and stood at the entrance for a good five minutes, completely ignored. Didn’t interrupt the staff because they all looked so “busy,” but with four people at the front and a half-empty restaurant, can’t help but wonder how you managed during peak hours.
Okay I understood and decided to wait until one staff member finally walked over… and just skipped me entirely to talk to the couple behind me 😂 Sure, they had a reservation—fair enough. Sooner another group of three walked in and were told to wait while she checked for a table (so clearly, tables did exist).Again, ignored me the second time.
Then I finally got the chance to be able to talk with the girl then I was told straight up by her: “We don’t have a table for one.”okay do u need the whole 10 minutes to tell me this information?
Right. Left immediately.Not sure if staff training is necessary ,but the lack of basic customer service and the inconsistency was pretty telling.
I assume the pasta I haven’t able to get is good but the first impression was just awful.
19/04/2026: Ah sure tiz a great place for a bite to eat.. I love it...
Great staff too

Grano
Dublin
03/05/2026: Some of the best pasta and pulpo I've ever had. Everything was delicious!
02/05/2026: Was really looking forward to coming here and was not disappointed. From the moment we walked in, service was great. Waiters were very friendly, one even told me I had over ordered which was appreciated as I was stuffed leaving the place. Very very tasty food, not super elaborate. Just simple Italian food done well. Highlight for me was the ravioli but in reality, everything was delicious. Literally was debating drinking the butter and sage sauce. Had 3 courses, 3 wines and 2 coffees between us. 150 all in with tip and I didn't mind paying it. Will definitely go back and can see how they were in the top 100 list.

Wallace's Taverna
Dublin
12/04/2026: Servers were lovely and the portion sizes were massive. Nice place would come back
11/04/2026: Very nice restaurant in the heart of Dublin. The staff were friendly and helpful. We ordered the Carbonara and the Amatriciana. There was a problem with the Carbonara and the staff was quick to offer another plate or to remove it from the bill. The Amatriciana was delicious with a great sauce and perfectly cooked pasta. We will definitely give them another try. 👍
