12/09/2026: Behold Mario! He grew among the ursid folk in the thin air and thickets; there, with that reigning bird-of-Jove circling o'er did he find an appetite for the eye that sees the frost of peaks. Mario with his eagle and ursids took of the eternal tree's overflowing sap. Eternally-recurring, eternally-returning is this tree! Like the rising-falling sun, this tree too becomes weary of its plenitude and seeks to send forth its wonders, so they might prosper through the workings of another beast. O what would this tree be without Mario, his eagle and his ursids! Without their yearning snouts gazing upon its sky-reaching stature! Behold! Mario too becomes weary of his abundance! Like a hive that has gathered to much honey – he needs cupped hands outstretched to take it! He: the cup that wants to overflow! He: Mario! shall send pouring his light 'til the hungry revel in their plenty, and the wise in their folly! Thus began Mario's downgoing, to the town named 'Piety'. When Mario arrived in the valley village with his pots and pans and plants a plenty, the people thought him strange and unsettling. They turned their shoulders to him and huddling in their heaps they muttered thus to one another, and blinked: 'Who is this vile cook who comes from the Ursid peaks?... where those bilious bruins dwell...', 'Yes who! Who is this fool who laughs behind his pots of sanguine sauce? Who dances with his pans, as though instead of pans they were indeed musicians?'. Then an elder near the centre of the huddle piped up, ''And those pots you see, they do not cook our Pious stew. He cooks a stew quite different, Nay! in fact! it is no stew! Let alone a Pious one!' Thus spoke the elder, blinking. And with this the disgruntled mass of Pious folk departed from that scene with a sententious sense of accomplishment. Come evening, when the town had grown tired of its labours, and was quite dormant, a few Piousites with keen nostrils, snook about the town of Piety. Dipping from inky shadow to shadow, they followed that new and curious scent, 'til at longsolast they found Mario at his work, roasting a great boar on his Olympic flame. In raucous frenzy, they greeted this strange foreigner, making Mario merry gifts of herbs and liquors. A set of drunken carpenters carried forth a table long and sturdy, and the potters came clinking down the lane with plates round and fat. All was jovial and drunken! Articulating the senseless sound and merriment, a composed Piousite thumped the hem of her blouse, and spoke thus, 'Noble Stranger! Long have we, in this town of Piety, eaten of boiled meats and valley stew, which neither settle nor discomfort the body. And Long! Long have i longed for a fatty proliferation! For a great abundance! For an impious indulgence! a dance! and a bowl of something flavourful! We beseech of you, O strange chef, a great feast!' And thus began the banquet!

23/10/2026: The middle fell out of the take away pizza.

11/10/2026: Very nice calzone and good atmosphere.

22/09/2026: Best Italian food in town for sure Amazing people

11/09/2026: Leaving a review because I love the food - I order the carbonara and it's delish! - but also want to warn everyone to order directly from their website because deliveroo charges an additional 5euro as a deposit fee on the garlic pizza bread. Not sure why cuz it comes in disposable take out containers.

07/10/2026: Food was good, garlic bread was amazing. Super friendly staff.

02/10/2026: Love this place. We live in Australia and visited 9 years ago and then again last night for my bday. The staff are so nice and the food is excellent. Wine list is great, really cost and romantic! It’s a must visit for great Italian food if your in Dublin

04/10/2026: Lovely small Italian restaurant, everything feels very "home-mady" you can even see the staff making the pasta on the side before they cook it for you. The food is amazing, super tasty, the tiramisu probably the best I've had, ever. Will definitely go back!

04/10/2026: Front door purposely left open to allow a cold breeze through the restaurant so customers wouldn't linger too long. Customers did close the door only to be immediately reopened by management. Tables too close. together. Not comfortable dining. Portions very small and prices very high proportionately. Won't be back.

08/08/2026: it‘s not there anymore; there is an Asian Restaurant instead. Be Careful!

28/06/2026: Food was good, service was better. Enjoyed taking a break from pub food and enjoying the tastes of Italy. People say the prices are high, but everything is high in Dublin.

16/09/2026: My first time in cafe topolis. Already planning my next visit. Went with a friend who was there before. I was very impressed with the food- really great flavour. Service staff on the ball. Highly recommend.

13/09/2026: Excellent wood fired pizza! The crust was soft and crunchy as it should be 🍕

12/09/2026: great food and prices and super relaxed atmosphere. Pizza was awesome. Will return.

23/08/2026: Really nice local neighbourhood restaurant. Staff were very attentive and really accommodating. Food was very good and reasonably priced. It’s a bit hidden in the village of Raheny as it’s not on the main roads, but worth a visit.

20/10/2026: A true Italian delight in the heart of Dublin. Their Capricciosa is perfectly baked and full of flavor—topped with generous ingredients, among which the exceptionally tasty artichokes truly stand out. Given the high quality, the price of €18 is more than reasonable.

18/10/2026: We had pizza and pasta, and it was delicious. The service was very friendly and professional. We've been back because we loved it. Thank you for your attention.
