Have eaten here twice and both times was for a Christmas party. Food was beautiful both times and service was excellent. Very friendly waiters. It was been very quiet in the restaurant any time I've been there so the atmosphere hasn't been great. Food is delicious however so would definitely recommend.

We first discovered Dylan restaurant at a Dublin food festival and it has since become a favourite destination for us as a special treat. The food has been perfect on each of our visits and the staff are polite and very attentive without being intrusive. Our last meal here was superb, scallops and crispy pork belly cooked to perfection, followed by wonderfully cooked lamb and finished with a raspberry creme brulee for me, with my partner having a fennel soup, sea bream and vanilla cheese cake mousse with berries - having tasted a little of his dishes also, I can say that I was impressed by everything. Its worth noting that neither of us would normally order dessert as we don't particularly enjoy sweet things, however given the level of skill demonstrated by the kitchen in the previous courses, we had to find out if this carried through to the desserts. The restaurant is on the expensive side, so it really is more of a treat but I did notice on our last visit that they had a summer special menu which seemed very reasonably at about €35 (I think!) for 3 courses and included a glass of prosecco. There is an outside area at the front where you can sip your wine / coffee after dinner and also a lovely enclosed beer garden area off the bar which is also very pleasant for after dinner drinks. We'll definitely be back and continue to recommend to friends and colleagues.

Wow what decor - I LOVED this hotel. We had Sunday lunch which was good value for the surroundings. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. I was very disappointed with my starter which was goat's cheese & beetroot salad with a filo top. I have had similar so many places and this has to be worst! I got a good 1/4 bag of lettuce on the plate with a few scoops of non-descript cheese and some chunks of beetroot with a (I would think reheated) filo top. Not a good start. The main was better - I went for pork and it was very nice. The dessert was the ultimate - I had the eton mess and it was swoonalicious!!! I've had evenings since, that I've craved that dessert! One thing that really impressed me was they gave my brother-in-law a sample of a wine they thought he might like, before having to commit to buying it. Would love to stay here - would just go to drool over the fabulous decor!
