Eatokyo
Dublin
20/01/2026: Visited with gf, we had: Squid Tempura starter with Tuna Steak (rare) and Tofu steak, both with a side of rice. It was my first time visiting and her second, the food was literally steaming hot when it was served! Did mean I burnt my tongue trying to eat it because I was hungry! But good to know that the food was cooked fresh! The steaks were surprisingly filling and we both ended up leaving most of our rice untouched, so if I go back again I'll just get a main with no side.
I'd definitely go back but get their earlier so I'm less hungry and can wait for my food to cool down more!
Toilets were also very clean - which is surprising nowadays unfortunately! So that is notable too.
Considering how busy the restaurant was, it wasn't too loud thankfully and the background music was nice, also not too loud, so you could hear what people were saying! Also shouldn't be notable but I've been places recently who have the music up way too loud so you have to shout!

Soup
Dublin
18/01/2026: We arrived for Korean food and were positively surprised that they have more of a mix between Indian and Korean ramen, with multiple options aside. Prices are higher, but the content is also much more fulfilling (usually ramen is more meal in a broth, and in this case more broth in a meal).
I recommend the place.
14/01/2026: Really great spot. The fried chicken is top notch (that sauce!). Ramen is great – tonkotsu pork with shoyu is my go to. Chill vibe and easy going place.

Izumi Japanese sushi & Chinese
Dublin
12/01/2026: Great food and very good staff. The udon noodles with grilled beef were excellent, full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The chicken teppanyaki was good, although the menu said it would be thigh meat and it was breast instead. Edamame and the salmon nigiri were also delicious. Overall, a very enjoyable meal and friendly service.
31/12/2025: Lovely, tiny, friendly little spot across from the Skylon. Great hot food and sushi. Very clean!

Aoshima
Dublin
25/01/2026: Best sushi I've had in the city, we're very lucky to have lived within walking distance for years so we've visited countless times. Service is always incredibly quick, with friendly and welcoming staff. Decor and atmosphere are wonderful, it's just a fantastic place to eat. To top it all off, it's actually cheaper than similar Japanese restaurants. Grab a Tiger beer, a spicy tuna roll, and enjoy a wonderful evening my friends
19/01/2026: Best California roll I’ve ever had

Silver kitchen
Dublin
29/12/2025: Few days before I ordered kerala biriani for an event, instead of biriani they prepared and served us fried rice with chicken and the behaviour of staff was unacceptable...they are rude and has no respect towards their customers...will never ever go back there
29/11/2025: They offer one of the best Indian and Indo-Chiese cuisine for takeaway or catering for group parties 🎉🥳🎈.
Had ordered Indian and South-Indian cuisine dishes for 3 of our parties in 2024 and 2025. We were happy, and most importantly all who gathered at our events and parties were very pleased and enjoy their delicious food.

Maneki
Dublin
28/12/2025: Nice place, good location, lovely ambience. The food was good but elements missing. There should have been miso soup alongside two meals, which never arrived. My dessert was ice-cream with tuiles cases and berries. There were 2 blueberries! That's a disappointment. Don't bother saying berries, if you are going to serve two! Don't say you serve miso soup alongside, if you're not going to do that.
22/12/2025: Very poor experience received by management not on the ground staff.
We had booked for 16 people food and karaoke - they charged us a €320 deposit for this booking, €20 euro per person which we thought was originally a bit steep! This was also not redeemable against payments on the day.
We had group of 13 sit down for food, we had 3 friends that were unable to attend on the day due to illness - typical of the time of year close to Christmas with flus etc. In total between food (€870) , karaoke, where we also had additional friends join (€420) and drinks probably €500+ we spent close to the €2000 mark. Food and service were fine but nothing special, expensive as Dublin generally is but there are much better Japanese restaurants in Dublin.
They are now refusing to return €60 of the deposit based on the fact that we had 3 friends not sit down for dinner with us, despite the fact we spent nearly €2000 in Maneki on the night. They are saying this is because we didn't have an accurate number of people for the booking 5 days prior to the date of the dinner - anyone that has an illness surely knows that you can't predict it five days beforehand and you are doing the right thing by not attending and spreading it to everyone else, despite this still 13 of us attended and there wasn't any money lost for Maneki.
They have stopped replying to our emails and it has left an incredibly bad impression on our larger friend group who are all based in Dublin, none of us will return to Maneki again and will not recommend it to anyone in our wider circles based on the experience.
Table was also delayed by 20 mins when we arrived and the karaoke room was also delayed by 20-30 mins. Mics were also way to high in the karaoke room which wasn't very enjoyable but the issue could not be resolved by the staff.
To me, it seems that they take the deposit to make sure that you do not get some of it back, they made us even sign a waiver for the karaoke in case of any issues, seems like an incredibly greedy business model!
Any of the Chinese restaurants on Parnell St are a much better recommendation for karaoke in Dublin :)

Yummy Noodle Box
Dublin
01/10/2025: Incredible spicebag for only €4.90 and it came with a free curry sauce too.
09/09/2025: First time to get a take away here. Portion was smallish and the beef green pepper didn't taste like it normally should.
Disappointing

Honkaku Sushi & Thai Restaurant
Dublin
06/12/2025: Food was absolutely disgusting inedible the salmon was the texture of a leather jacket the salmon was the kind of dry that only comes from being left out all day and the colour of it is grey and it smells like it has been left out my husband called for a replacement or refund and they said no I will upload pictures of the salmon because this is outrageous and disgraceful I wouldn’t feed this food to a dog
08/11/2025: Everything was excellent! Top of the tops ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
