3.5 Belluccis 3.5 star review:
table for 2 - fillet steak excellent; rib-eye somewhat disappointing; good selection of Italian wines - atmosphere somewhat let down by the volume of music which did not allow for comfortable conversation - young lady serving us was very pleasant.

It was a good meal at Belluccis. To improve the wine list and the menu, but at least a decent dinner and a good welcome.

This was my second time in Belluccis the first time was amazing loved the food & athmosphere, service was very good although i did think it was a little pricy. Went back with a voucher deal the second time and did not think the food was as good and we did not get a nice area to sit, the service was still very good but i felt because i had the coupon we were not treated as well yet our bill was still €80 for 2 ppl, i found €8 for a glass of house wine very expensive.

The food, the service the atmosphere, everything was amazing. We booked for four people and five of us showed up and no fuss was made to accommodate.
We used two vouchers menupages, but we would definitely return and pay full price. Great restaurant. I recommend the calamari starter and the calzone, yum!

The pizza that I got for my main course was very nice, if a bit standard. My partner also got pizza, also nice. Our starters were both quite underwhelming. I had the tempura veg and seafood which was bland to the point of tasteless and my partner had bruschetta. Now bruschetta should be an absolute doddle to get right, this one came with hardly a drizzle of olive oil and no garlic at all. Very bland and boring. When I mentioned this to the waitress she sort of shrugged and smiled(?).
The dessert of chocalate and hazelnut tart was great and enough to share between two. Not a bad meal but wouldn't hurry back here.

Efficient charming maitre d' immediately recognized me and greeted us warmly and showed us to the same table I had enjoyed on my previous visit in this large restaurant with different areas for different types of parties and moods, we chose a delicious Red La Madoro Negroamaro from Puglia at €28.
We all four chose the Crostini fungi as previously it had had a thin crispy base and tasty mushrooms, unfortunately they were cool stodgy an uninteresting BUT Immediately changed without fuss to what we had expected . Delicious.
My wife had the hake which was "fine" two of us had the rack of lamb with roasted vegetables which was cooked exactly as ordered and delicious as was the steak with pepper sauce and fries on the side.
The tiramisu was delicious, as were the two panacottas.
My criticism would be that on each visit the kitchen has not been up to scratch BUT saved by the genuine interest of the front of house staff and once challenged produce excellent food, why not do it the first time?
The bill including 2 bottles of wine, the menupages voucher and service was €150 for 4 which is great value for good food, great service in pleasant surroundings. We look forward to returning. Very close to Four Seasons, and Dublin 4 hotels opposite RDS. Very handy. Will be going back more vouchers to be used

Good location, we went there for food with Menupages voucher, however, we could not use the voucher because we did not book the table through menupages. Anyway, we had our meals w/o the voucher. The food was good and nice, but it was super slow service despite only four customers in the restaurant that night. They were not flexible or accommendating with vouchers. Overall, it was fine but we will not go back again.

I enjoyed my meal here. Starters of Caprese salad and fritto misto were both generous, nicely presented. Squid in fritto misto wasn't great but there was plenty of other tasty bits. The pizzas we both had, had nice thin bases, well cooked and full of flavour. Was impressed by the look of the other main courses passing us by for other diners - will be back to try them.,
