The best restaurantsof italian in Dublin

18/08/2025: The restaurant is very good, I go about twice a month, the prices are not that high and the food is delicious. It was 50 euros for two pizzas, a glass of wine and an appetizer. The appetizer was perfect for two people.

18/08/2025: Very good value for money. The food (we ordered 1 pizza Algio Olio, 1 Margherita, 1 Diavolo, and 1 glass of wine) was very good, and the server was very friendly. The starter was quite large and perfectly sufficient for two people. We paid 50 euros, including tips. Highly recommended.

08/09/2025: Highly recommend visiting Wallace’s in the city centre in Dublin. I have been going for years, it’s still really good food, very friendly staff and great location. Not too much vegan options but recommend the Bruschetta and Birra Ichnusa if you’re looking for a tasty snack and beer! Go check it out.

20/08/2025: A little out of the way from the hustle and bustle of the city center (just across the quay!), a great Italian restaurant. The staff is very friendly and attentive!

10/09/2025: Brilliant pizza! And very good value!

06/09/2025: Good and quick service from Dussan

10/08/2025: My partner and I left vomiting all night and extreme stomach sickness after eating here, no manager to speak to, to help deal with this situation, was left speaking to the assistant manager who has no clue what she is doing and accused me of lying just to get my money back, told me to go get proof that im sick from the doctor, said her name was Monica just talked over me the whole time on the phone and acuused me of lying and was shouting at me the whole phonecall, absolutely horrible person, has no place in a customer service job, please dont eat in this dump unless you want to be sick and abused

19/06/2025: Food so good staff are so helpful and friendly

20/08/2025: The food is absolutely delicious and well presented. The staff are nice. It's a very small space but the service and food are fast and good.

19/08/2025: Really small pizza place. Good pizza and pasta.

20/08/2025: the woman working was so nice and friendly and the gelato was so worth the money!

16/08/2025: Functional outlet. The menu selection is ok. Some of the gelato flavours are fun like the bubblegum or the Bailey's.

09/09/2025: Very good, especially the cocktails, very nice outside too, thanks to the team who are great

07/09/2025: Limited menu and not your typical Italian food options. They did have two very good pasta options...one with lobster bits and vegies, and gnocchi with mushrooms. Service was very slow, but not our waitresses fault. Agnes was the only waitress for the entire large restaurant, both inside and covered outside seating. Our foursome felt so badly for her trying to attend to everyone. She did her best but was so unfair! They are working her to death!

07/09/2025: Delicious food (seafood risotto, mussels and crème brûlée 🫶🏻), friendly service and great value. Highly recommend

30/08/2025: Super early bird lunch menu. Reasonably priced too.

13/09/2025: Spaghetti with seafood, good pasta and sauce, fairly neutral seafood.

08/09/2025: Nice standard prices, good pizza, everything was good.

06/09/2025: An absolute gem! Delicious authentic Italian food, friendly service. Well priced.

13/07/2025: Beautiful authentic Italian food, perfect portion sizes, very friendly service – without question one of the best places to eat in Blackrock

31/08/2025: There are many good restaurants in Dalkey but for me Benitos is the best. There is always a good atmosphere and the service is excellent. It's also good value which is not the case for all Dalkey restaurants! We have had several different dishes on the menu over the years and the food is delicious. The pasta is freshly made and SO good. But the real gem for me are the gluten free options. I'm the only coeliac in my family and to have actual choices on any menu is a thrill. I can honestly say that Benitos has the best gluten free pizza I've ever tasted, it's crisp and light with delicious topping choices. It's no surprise that this restaurant is often booked out. Highly recommend for any occasion.

30/08/2025: Great food. Reasonable prices for the area.

10/08/2025: 10% service charge automatically added, even though it was just the two of us, for service that is essentially nonexistent: we were sitting outside and had to walk upstairs to order, and then again to pay (by cash or Revolut). Food is really good though, if a bit overpriced.

02/08/2025: The food is nothing special. It tastes like a frozen pizza. The crust isn't crispy, and the pizza wasn't filling. However, the view of the intersection is very nice. And the candy that came with the bill was delicious.

24/08/2025: The pizza was very fat - too much cheese. But definetly better than a lot of other Pizzerias.

23/08/2025: Lovely restaurant well worth a visit

04/08/2025: A true Italian food treasure in the middle of Dublin. Loved the Bruschetta, handmade Pizza, dessert and lovely service - recommend to call in advance as dough and food are freshly prepared based in demand.

31/07/2025: Amazing food and great, helpful staff, thanks so much for an amazing meal! 💕

03/08/2025: A true taste of Italy in Dublin Caffè Cagliostro is such a gem! It’s one of the few spots in Dublin where you can enjoy a truly authentic Italian coffee experience. The coffee is rich, smooth, and clearly made with care—exactly what you’d hope for in a proper Italian café. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with that genuine European café feel that makes you want to linger a bit longer. It’s the perfect place to pause during a busy day, whether for a quick espresso or a relaxed cappuccino. The only challenge is that it can be hard to find a seat sometimes, which just goes to show how popular and loved this place is. Overall, if you’re in Dublin and craving a real Italian coffee, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

30/07/2025: I'm only posting this photo because... at Caffè Cagliostro you can find good Italian coffee, and for us Italians, this photo represents everything, in my opinion. The Italian staff are very friendly and open to conversation, even about music and instrumentals. When I return to Dublin, I'll definitely be back.
