Excellent food and service, a little over priced. Beautiful room but not conducive to muffling the sound of groups

Really enjoyed it. Good service. Perfect ambience. Quiet, but not too quiet. Lovely cocktails. Not cheap. Like €15 each, so 2 people, 3 rounds, share a plate of food, add a tip, and it's €150. But that's going to be the same at any good cocktail club these days. And I thought this one was very nice.

This was our first restaurant on our trip to Dublin and we absolutely loved it! We were able to get one of the last reservations available for the next 2 weeks and had dinner at 9pm. We were greeted and sat immediately and service was wonderful. My partner and I both ordered an espresso martini and it was delicious. We then split the fish and chips for our main entree and it was incredible! For a side, we ordered the Brussel sprouts and roasted carrots and those were both phenomenal. 10/10 highly recommend!
