San Patrizio Italian Blessington

Restaurant

👍👍 Nice ambiance, friendly waiters, fine selection of wines, but most important...excellent Italian food, all cooked to the traditional Italian standards. Our nice and helpful waiter from Turkey even sung Happy Birthday to my wife who turned 50. All in all, 5 stars well deserved.

Dall'Italiano Restaurant Glasnevin

Italian restaurant

👍👍 Amazing food and very authentic. Chef personally took the order and even suggested us a wine to go with it. Had an absolutely delicious lunch on my birthday. Really appreciate the way chef chooses quality of ingredients he uses, that makes the food unique.

La Dolce Italia

Italian restaurant

👍👍 This is by far the best Italian restaurant I've ever tested, the service is fast, the place is small but cozy, the food is so fresh and testy, every bite is an explosion 💥 of flavor, the chef came personally to check if all was good, he is a very nice and cool guy, and the ++, the waitress, Karlota...

Carpe Diem

Italian restaurant

👍👍 A little gem of a restaurant located in Bray and only located a stones throw from the promenade and 5 minutes from the dart. If you want to experience authentic Italian cuisine you will be hard pushed to find somewhere better. A real taste of authentic Italy. It came highly recommended but with a sm...

Falò

Italian restaurant

👍👍 The pizza was so tasty and authentic, better than any of the other pizza places in Maynooth by a mile. Just wish they did more sides!

Pastiamo Truckttoria

Italian restaurant

👍👍 Excellent quality food with great service. I really loved the Penne all’Arrabbiata, it was delicious. It's a simple dish, but is often messed up elsewhere. Pastiamo Truckttoria got the perfect balance, and you can tell they only use the freshest ingredients. Looking forward to my next visit!

Sfuso

Wine bar

👍👍 Sfuso, a lovely Italian restaurant in the Dublin city centre. They have an open kitchen and smells of real gooooood food all the time. They also have a great collection of wine and spirits. The atmosphere is great for a quick date. We ordered a meat and cheese platter which tasted very well with t...

Bell Pesto Café

Italian restaurant

👍👍 Today I had the pleasure of dining in one of Dublin’s finest eateries. I entered the Bell Pesto Cafe with an empty stomach and a craving for something good, and when it came time for me to vacate the premises and move on, I was well satisfied in all regards. I started with the Garlic Bruscetta, whi...

Wood Fire Cafe

Pizza restaurant

👍👍 Wish I can give it more stars. Possibly the best Italian restaurant away from Italy. It was absolutely rammed but service was still great. The food was divinely perfect. Good, hearty portions. If I come visit Dublin again I'll be making a bee line here ASAP. Highly, highly recommended. Book a table...

Riba Restaurant

Italian restaurant

👍👍 Loved the chicken wings. Beef burgers was alright. Chocolate mousse was fantastic. Prices are reasonable for a 3 course meal. Friendly staff. I heard the place can get crowded sometimes (especially during weekend) so booking a table online is recommended. There was some free tables available on Sat...

👍 My date and I had a great experience at the Italian restaurant. The bruschetta and pepperoni pizza we ordered was delicious and very authentic!

Bottega Toffoli

Italian restaurant

👍👍 What a cozy place to spend our Sunday night. Owner/Chef/Servant was such a great and genuine character that made us feel as we were welcomed to his home. Could not help to observe when he took the role as a chef preparing our pizzas and could really see that he put his heart into it. There were even...

One Society

Restaurant

🫤 Not worth the hype, unfortunately. You cannot book so you wait in a queue outside…which is fine. However, when you do get seated the service is incredibly slow and the food is just meh. It looks nice and the vibe is cool - but it’s not a five-star, gotta-go-back brunch place.
