    Had a birthday party in Nolita Thursday evening. Place with beautiful interior decoration. Great and funny door man. Good spot for a chilled night out with friends but not good place for dining. very very slow service. Taking ages to get our drinks after ordered. Every time we needed something we had to leave our table for looking for a server. Ordered starters for sharing, they came without extra plates. Ordered pasta, the tagliatelle was very soggy. Left the birthday cake to the staff but they didn’t bring it out with candles after dinner. We unboxed the cake and lighted the candles by ourselves on the table. (Used to work in many different restaurants and the servers always bring the cake to the table with candles and sing a birthday song), and we didn’t get plates for our cake and couldn’t find any server at that moment. One friend in our group went to the kitchen got plates for us. Just think this place doesn’t pay attention to its customers. Most time we were doing “self-service”.

    Rather disappointing. Hostess was cold and not welcoming. We brushed it off and sat down. The server was very friendly but clearly new to service. He took our entire order at the on set drinks, appetizers, and mains. I ordered the burrata as an appetizer & was informed that he wasn’t sure if there was any left. What shocked me was that our entrees arrived at the table even before our drinks (at least 5+ minutes, yes we waited along time). Secondly, he didn’t come back to tell us they were out of burrata. Maybe he thought because he said they might be out that was enough. I don’t know, but he didn’t even come back to tell us or ask if we wanted something else. The margarita pizzas we ordered were mediocre at best. Lastly, I had to go to the bar counter to get a second round of drinks and for water. They did have a good acoustic guitar player in the bar area entertaining. He might’ve been the best thing about this place besides the décor & interior. I do not recommend eating at this place maybe just drinking at the bar. Worst service we’ve experienced on a long time.

    Can only speak for the brunch, the staff was lovely and the place is super stylish and spacious. The food however was rather disappointing, especially the pizza, which to be honest was a surprise, considering the professional set up and wooden oven...

    I've gone to Nolita many times and it never disappoints. It is one of the coolest, chicest bars in Dublin. I've been here pre Covid and the past year, and the service continues to be fantastic. They make perfect espresso martinis and they have a great list of cocktails. They also serve delicious pizza. Not to mention, when the bar turns into a nightclub your night will be one not to forget. The music is insane and they bring in musicians - a saxophonist and drummer.

    Poor service, poor food and abominably overpriced. We arrived here for a Christmas party last week. Our party arrived at 19 15 and our first drinks were served at 20:10. Having paid a hefty service charge, we spent the night hunting someone, anyone, to take orders. When our food finally arrived, every person in our party reported disappointment. Every course- utterly bland and utterly unremarkable and ludicrously expensive. Between us, we had the opportunity to try every item on their winter set menu. 45 euro for three lazily prepared courses. The arrogance would boil your blood. Finally when our sizable bill arrived, only then were we informed that we could not split the bill . This caused huge confusion and stress which could have been better managed had they cared enough to show us the basic courtesy of informing us beforehand. If you think the price is an indicator of quality, prepare to be taken for a ride. It's been a long time since I've seen a party of guests be so poorly cared for in an establishment in Dublin. Never again.  Find anywhere else- there are plenty of other fine places in Dublin that actually want your custom. I strongly advise against.

    The eggs were hard and had to wait to have them done again, the tiramisu was super dry and they forgot my tea. Pretty disappointed by the quality. The service was nice and the place is very cool but I am not sure if they are overwhelmed with the reopening.

    I was here for a evening meal and not only was the service dreadful but so was the food. There was 17 in the group and not one person enjoyed their food or the experience. It was like they repeatedly forgot about us, we had to go searching for the server everytime we wanted anything. Even though we had asked for them it was well over an hour before we got our drinks. Not once were we checked on by the server, they pretty much dropped the food and disappeared. The food was bland and not up to the price tag, we left most of it. The glassware had big cracks or chips out of them, the wooden tables had splinters on the sides that kept on getting stuck on our dresses. When we wanted to pay we were only informed then that they would only take one card payment and refused to split it. It was a big bill for one person to take on. When we got downstairs for a drink the front bar had a leak so while waiting we were greeted by the barman pouring out big buckets of brown water right in front of us and no they didn't wash their hands in-between mopping up and serving drinks. There was three restaurant managers in the group, we couldn't believe what was happening. Safe to say that no one from our group will be going back anytime soon.

    The food has been nice! Maybe it’s a Dublin thing, but before you book the reservation you need to put your credit card / if you don’t show up, they charge you 10€ per person. It’s kinda hard as a foreigner to figure that out with the card but i made it somehow. We were 5 girls sitting on the entrance literally and asked to change our seats, they said they’re full when the table on the front window was empty. Anyway maybe there’s a reason, we were happy overall!

    Can only speak about the cocktails and they were fab. Especially loved the Spanish Harlem. The doorman was sound as were all the staff. Would definitely return and hopefully try some food the next time.

    The cocktail menu at Nolita is very good. They have some unique drinks and will also make the classics for you on request. After 10pm it becomes more of a club, everyone is dancing and they have a DJ/live artists for the music. There’s lots is seating space, mostly indoor. Would recommend booking a table in advance.

    We went to Nolita for Sunday lunch. Everything from our order was fresh and delicious. All our food was ready on our table very fast. Medium rare steak was soft and juicy. I believe we have been served by a manager and he done great job recommending lovely desserts. You have to try tiramisu and chocolate brownie they are unreal 🤤

    We had dinner for 13 of us for my birthday. The food was great and the menu has lots of variety for the picky eaters haha. It broke into a great atmosphere with drums around 11. A DJ at 12 and the place goes public at 10. Big bookings have a surcharge but it's totally understandable. We had a blast

    One of the best meals we have ever had in Dublin. We went for a family birthday and it was amazing! The family said the nicest pasta they have ever had. The portions were very big and every delicious. I recommend the burrata, Alfredo chicken and the spicy wings. The cocktails were also spectacular. At 9:30 the lights dimmed and the music started, really enjoyed bopping while eating desert! 10/10 recommend for any occasion.

  • 4/5 Mr. S. 10 months ago on Google
    This is an very amazing place to meet friends 😀. Food is delicious and there are many vegetarian options available. Price is also reasonable for food. Ambience is nice staff is extremely polite and it is great place. Only thing after 10 music is very loud and one can not talk to their friends. Music after 10 was so loud you can hear it outside the gate also. Giving 4 star because of very loud music which made it difficult to talk to my friends.

    Lovely restaurant. The staff were lovely and the food was absolutely delicious. Can't wait to go back.

  • 4/5 Paul K. 9 months ago on Google
    Great buzz the night we went. Reasonable prices for a club in Dublin and no entrance fee which is a huge plus. Had good music and also a guy playing the trumpet which added a great vibe, I haven't danced as much in a long time! Recommended if you're in the area!

  • 3/5 Anirudh T. 8 months ago on Google
    Went here for a work do. We had the area upstairs referred to as the Whiskey bar. We had a variety of pizzas and some finger food. The Pizzas were not great, very soft and sloppy bases and the vegetarian ones namely the 4 cheese and the margherita were not particularly nice. Atmosphere was great though. I'd say it's a good spot for drinks.

  • 3/5 Ruby W. 1 year ago on Google
    Service was a little cold here. The pizza we had was great and full of flavour we loved the sauce that was on it. Atmosphere is nice and would be nice to take a booth if you were having a work dinner or something as it’s quite private to talk. Cocktails were nice but nothing special.

  • 5/5 Sana D. 2 years ago on Google
    Great staff, food was perfect, every single dish is worth going back for and the price was really good too. Our waiter for the night John was just so sweet and had really nice banter too. Thoroughly enjoyed both dinner and brunch menus :)

  • 5/5 Aoife M. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful atmosphere and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. We had a cheeseboard to start and I went for the sea bass as my main which was exquisite. This was rounded off with a selection of desserts. I already cannot wait to return. 5 stars well deserved

    I've been here twice and each time it has been exceptional. The food and cocktails are an experience not soon forgotten. Stylish interior with a roof terrace.

  • 5/5 Kate F. 2 years ago on Google
    From the second I walked in I was greeted by Julie, such a warm person. Water was brought immediately and the service was prompt. We were then chatted to about the the cocktails and the food. Overall the service was attentive. The food was delicious. We were checked with constantly and our servers were extremely approachable. An excellent experience.

    Great night in Nolita last night. Staff were amazing. Drinks top notch. Espresso Martini 👌👌👌 Big shout out to Siobhan. Dug me out of a hole with a last minute booking and made sure we were sorted all night.
