Fantastic food and service - really top quality. Lovely atmosphere, though a little dark where we were seated. I would have preferred to be able to see the presentation on the plates better. Perhaps Christmas decorations hung on light fittings were to blame? Can't overstate how good the food and service were. All wait staff was amazing. Thanks again for a great evening

This restaurant was a super choice for a birthday treat. The atmosphere, lighting, and ambience was immediately attractive. Service was prompt, and staff very pleasant and efficient. Our food was divine, and we have already spread the word to friends, with whom we will be back.

Delicious food. Everything served quickly. Staff were always checking in (in a non-intrusive way) to see if we needed anything else or top ups, they were really lovely and attentive. Really great experience. Also, it was outrageously affordable for Dublin city centre prices. Looking forward to going back.
