Me and my wife had our last meal in Dublin at Pichet and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The fish was sooo fresh and it was accompanied by some amazing sides. The waiter helped us pair a wine with our fish which complimented our meal perfectly. Very highly recommended.

Overall was amazing. starters and drinks were fantastic. Our steak was a bit salty which we did not enjoy much, but the service (Isa) was absolutely amazing. They offered options to sort out the problem, which I think it was very thoughtful and show great service.
