Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 3.0 star review: Went here with my girlfriend and was expecting quality food and service due to the prices. Initially the service was very good as the staff went to find us a seat. We were eventually seated at the entrance which was uncomfotable. We both had steak and my rib eye was tough and of not great quality. By the time we got our main, most of the staff seemed to have gone home, and i waited 20 mins to find someone to get me some salt(yea no salt on the table) but I gave up. To sum up my visit, this place was not value for money.

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 3.0 star review: We visited Martine's Wine Bar on Monday 8th August. The restaurant is very basic with formica like tables and very casual.

The food is more expensive than most Dublin restaurants of this type and the menu is very limited. However, the food was good and the service was good. With the location in a street full of restaurants, I would be unlikely to go back.

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 4.5 star review: Stopped in to avail of the early bird menu, two courses for €20. I had the goat's cheese tartlet, which was very tasty. Mr. Mona had the mussels, asian style, was a very generous portion and they were fresh and scrumptous. For main I had tandoori chicken, it was nice but nothing amazing. The other main of chicken supreme was devine, with roasted veg and mash. All in all a lovely meal for €40!

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 4.5 star review: We hadn't made a booking and the waitress seated a couple before us but made up for it by seating us in the main room at a lovely table. My husbands mussel starter was great particularly the sauce and my main of scallops and black pudding was gorgeous. The rack of lamb seemed a little on the small side but was delicious also. We were really impressed with the australian shiraz which @ € 30 seemed very reasonable for such a beautiful wine.The staff really looked after us after the initial error and we would definitely go again.

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 4.0 star review: Went for dinner last Friday. We had no reservation and the place was quite busy but threy accommodated us quite quickly.

We both went for the Early Bird which is good value for money.

I had the Coq au vin as a starter and having lived in France for a while it was not up to what I expected, but the flavours were there and the portion quite generous.

Boyfriend had the chicken goujons and quite liked them.

As mains, he went for the steak with fries which was perfectly cooked (medium rare) and came with the sauce on the side (as requested).

I had the fish of the day Salmon...which was fresh and lovely. Nice garnish and once again generous size.

Service was prompt and friendly.

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 4.5 star review: We had the early bird menu. The food was good and great value. I probably wouldn't pay the full price for it but would go back for the early bird again. Service was very good. The staff were very friendly

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 4.0 star review: went here with my boyfriend he had soup i had mussels to start.. soup was cold and tasteless the mussels were tasty but small portion compared to other restaurants.for mains i had steak which was ok but nothing spectacular. my partner had scallops which were dissapointing they strongly tasted of just oil and were a small portion for the money.. the serice was excellent a great friendly waitress.although i had a booking we were sat at a small cramped table in the bar beside lots of drinkers who were quite rowdy and it was right in the main door so freezing!! thanfully the staff happily changed our table on request... wouldnt eat here again

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 4.5 star review: Went to this place with a bunch of friends. Atmosphere was very cosy. Food was very nice: for starters, try their soup or chicken goujons, and go for the lamb ribs for mains. Other dishes were also great. Service was fantastic, the staff were very friendly and chatty!

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 5.0 star review: Popped into Martines on Quay Street on the spur of the moment one evening for dinner and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent and beautifully presented, the service and atmosphere were fantastic as well. I couldn't recommended it highly enough!

Martines Restaurant & Wine Bar 5.0 star review: Visiting Galway a few weeks ago, popped into Martines. Have not been here for a few years. Glad to see that the food is still delicious and the atmosphere was good, dare I say cosy even. The starters were very tasty(soup and salmon cakes). We both ordered steak, they were cooked exactly as we requested (mine med rare and well done for my wife). Great to eat somewhere where the staff know what wine to select for you to compliment the meal. We thought the meal was good value for money. Nice to see in these times. The waitress was lovely and very professional, we will definately eat here again and I would recommend it.
