    Simply great. Food incredibly delicious. Food was a taste explosion due to the super balanced spices and the meat was extremely tender and enjoyable. And an extra plus point was that the food came extremely hot to the table. No chance for could dishes. There is also something for the sweet palate. You should visit this restaurant. Because the atmosphere was also like a little trip. On top of that, the staff was super polite and you never had to wait long due to the attentive waiters.

    We booked Dada for a saturday dinner, and we were delighted with the food. The starters were delicious, and the chicken fillet tagine was very yummy! Not enough bread for our liking but thankfully they provided more bread after we asked. For dessert we went for the selection of treats and the cookies were amazing. The baklava wasn't Turkish but I still liked it.

    Amazing experience at this fantastic restaurant. Tasty is the word, everything was great. The humus and saffraned chicken were delicius, we were about to ask for another round. The principals were all Tagine plates. My spicy meatballs were perfect as the other three meals, chicken supreme, lamb and brised chicken fillet. The stuff was so kind and attentive, so natural and quick working that we never felt alone in the fantastic place. Nice ambient music, it was full but never felt crowded, lot of space, and very nice aromas of the great food being tasted there, in a place wonderfully designed and decorated. We definitely made a visit to the charm of Morrocco culture, people, food & architecture. Well done Dada. We'll be back.

    This restaurant is lovely! Serve a tasty food full of seasonings and not spicy - the seasoning can be quite strong, which is good if you are looking to excise your palate. I had the early bird menu 2 courses for €25 which is not expensive at all if you consider the portion, taste and atmosphere. The staff were nice, food served quickly. Overall it was a fantastic experience, would recommend.

    I have been few times in this place and I can say this is one of my favourite restaurants in Dublin, the stuff and service are great and lovely, the food is amazing (at least for my taste). I loved the 7 hour lamb shoulder. Last time, they were understanding despite of being late 1h for the reservation.

    Everything here is so different, the food was amazing, the place inside and the outfit of the waiters really make you feel like you are in Morocco. Food came quite fast as well. Definitely recommend the Moroccan coffee too.

    Went here on a Thursday night early in the evening. Availed of the early bird menu, which is definitely good price value. We had a soup and chicken liver for starters. Lamb tagine and sweet potato couscous. The portions are so huge, we didn't had room for a dessert. The dishes are very well flavoured and the meat is tender. Would definitely come back to try more.

    One of the tastiest gems in Dublin 🤤. I didn’t know about Dada until a friend booked it for us. It’s ridiculously good. The staff were lovely and the restaurant has a great vibe to it. It’s also BYOB with corkage fees. Try the spicy potatoes and get extra! 🤩

    This is a nice place to visit with small groups. Although large groups are catered for - its not a great idea. Seating can be very limited and you will end up sitting at the bench type table so good luck if you get stuck in the corner. The food is flawless with plently of options. The waiters will come over with the crowd pleasing traditional tea pour. The rooms are beautiful but not very bright, especially in the evenings. The lighting becomes so poor - far to dark and gives the impression of stuffiness even though its not. Over all this is a nice place to visit more than once - but next time we will try it during the day.

    Good atmosphere, lovely interior. Helpful, friendly service. The dish that I had was absolutely first class. I wanted to eat every last bit of it. Extremely tasty, great fresh ingredients and very well cooked.

    We had a very nice meal here. The dishes were tasty and the service was very friendly. They had good labelling for food allergies (2 of us are coeliacs). I particularly liked the chicken wings on the mixed platter.

    Had a meal here on Friday for the first time and can’t wait to go back. Food and setting was beautiful, staff were very friendly and helpful. We had the selection of moroccan dips with pita bread, saffron chicken kebab, sautéed king prawns and the 7 hour slow roasted lamb shoulder. Haven’t enjoyed a meal that much in a long time. Pictures don’t do it justice.

    Our favourite restaurant in Dublin! The food is delicious and great value for money, all portions are very big! We got the braised chicken fillet tagine which was so good and our favourite dish, the slow roast lamb shoulder which was the best lamb we have ever had!! Great service and really traditionally designed restaurant. We went on valentines earlier in the year and they had really cute decorations and a nice set menu where we could try multiple of the starters - our favourites were the zaaluk and fried spinach. Also love the pomegranate lemonade. Can’t wait to go back!

    I had the lamb slow cooked dish which was just delicious. I’m a big fan of Moroccan food and this restaurant truly delivered. It’s a real shame that service was quite slow and the wait staff kept forgetting our water and drinks which we had to ask repeatedly as they came after the food and some of the guests at our table had no drink in hand for a while. I think the were just under staffed.

    From the outside looks pretty small and anonymous, but inside it's absolutely beautiful with a gorgeous atmosphere! I tried mix dips, seafood couscous (definitively my favorite, intense taste and generous portion) and the tangerine lamb. I recommend the mint tea. If you don't finish your food, they give a little box to bring it home. Lovely experience!

    Absolutely loved the restaurant, the ambiance, the service, the hospitality. The waiter Ali was extremely sweet. The food was incredible. I got the lamb tajin and asked for the harisa to make it more spicy, ate it down to the last bite. Great place and the food is halal! The price is quite reasonable too.

    Loved my dinner here! If you are looking for a beautiful restaurant in the city centre of Dublin, with nice staff and amazing food, pay a visit here. Many gluten free options available, clearly marked on the menu. Also, possibility to make a substitution to make your dish GF.

    We went here for dinner. a group of 10 people. Very kind and attentive waiters, they reserved a room just for us, very nice place. The food quite good. Very very annoying the obligation of having to choose the fixed menu made up of appetizers, main and dessert. So much food thrown away because we were full. No sense! A long time passed between one dish and the next, a dinner lasting more than three hours. We just wanted to get out. Other small points (but we were probably really unlucky) our private room was close to the toilets so bad smell came from time to time and the exit stairs were flooding from a water leak (hope it was water)

    Best Moroccan food place. Food was delicious and staff was very polity and welcoming

  • 4/5 Maxime B. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a nice restaurant. The atmosphere is lovely, the food is excellent, the quantities are good too, and the prices are reasonable. You can even bring you own wine which is super cool. But I can't give 5 stars because the table we were sitting at was quite damaged, to a point it looked really not great. I think these are easy fix that should be taken care of. Also I do no agree with charging groups just because we are groups... I mean.. 20€ extra charge because we're 5, I really don't get it. I know it's not atypical but I feel it's not justified
