Beneath the shadow of an iconic Dublin landmark, three masterful chefs have come together to introduce an unparalleled culinary experience to the city. Kaldero is more than a restaurant; it’s a fusion of Eastern tradition and bold, contemporary flair that brings the finest Chinese, Indian, and Filipino flavours to a striking new dining destination.

Under the expert hands of culinary icons Alfred Prasad, Daren Liew, and Richie Castillo, each dish at Kaldero reflects the extraordinary talent and artistry of its creators.

The dining space at Kaldero is a feast for the eyes, designed to complement the artistry on the plate. Rich, reclaimed timber, genuine terracotta tiling, and warm natural materials envelop the room, creating an intimate yet sophisticated setting.

Setting the stage for a truly immersive experience, the music at Kaldero is curated by neo-soul artist Uly, whose selection fills the room with vibrant layers of sound that are as dynamic as the dishes themselves.

From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect tone for the evening. The food was absolutely outstanding—a true symphony of flavors! The dynamite stuffed chillies were a showstopper, bursting with just the right amount of spice and flavor. And the beef ribs? Wow. Tender, succulent, and seasoned to perfection, they left us wanting more. Their cocktail menu was equally impressive—creative, unique, and packed with flavors that complemented the meal beautifully. It’s clear that a lot of thought has gone into curating a truly distinctive dining experience. We’ll *definitely* be back soon to explore more of the menu. Our visit was nearly perfect, though I do have a small suggestion. The restrooms left something to be desired and seemed to experience high traffic, likely from non-dining visitors. It’s a minor point but worth mentioning. All in all, Kaldero is a fantastic addition to Dublin’s food scene. Highly recommend!

I indulged in the tofu kare kare and cherywood pork ribs, which was perfectly cooked. The service was attentive yet unobtrusive, making the dining experience feel special. Don’t miss their panna cotta or chocolate for dessert—it’s the perfect ending to a delightful meal. Highly recommended for a memorable night out!

We have been waiting for a good Filipino-style restaurant to come to Dublin. The decor is calm and cozy and the walls are covered with gorgeous artwork. We were served by Alex, who was very friendly and made us feel super welcome. We ordered the cherrywood smoked pork ribs, scallops, dynamite lumpia and masala fries. Everything was delicious, we left nothing on our plates. We also tried a few of their unique cocktails: Ube Colada, Mango Masala, Pandan Gin Fizz and Tamarind Sour! The Ube Colada was nice, I personally think it could do with a little more ube flavouring and coconut cream but the other three were flawless! We are already planning our next visit!

We enjoyed the small plates to start with (we’ve ordered 4 types). The Baka (grilled rump beef with peppercorn sauce) was tender and perfectly cooked and the Seafood Claypot on the large plate menu was very tasty. Also, their dessert was delicious. It was a lovely shared reasonable dining experience. This place is highly recommended 👍
