We didn't have a reservation but they gave us a table that they had to have back in an hour and 15 minutes, which was more than enough time, as service was very fast. We’d never been to this Restaurant before and on opening the menu we were surprised how very reasonable the Main courses were. I had the Lemon & Thyme Grilled Chicken Salad With Spinach, Chick Peas And Spiced Yoghurt Dressing it was really good, my husband had steak which he said was very good and cooked perfectly. It came with fries but he asked if he could get mash instead and it was no problem. I noticed the table next to us got Fries, if your a real fan of fries you'd be happy with the amount they give you. We didn't have starters but we had dessert. My husband had Crème Brule which he said was good and I had the Baileys Bread and Butter pudding which I'll say is up there with the best I've ever had. We had coffee which was also really good. I found it great value for money and I will go back again.

I visited this restaurant on a saturday night and the place was packed. We got a table in the small room whitout great atmosphere but it was secluded so perfect for anyone wanting a private table. However my friends didn't mind so we settled and ordered food and wine. We all had the sirloin steaks with the fries and washed it down with a great bottle of St Emilio wine. I was disappointed because last time i ordered the steak it was much better than this evening. The wine on te other hand was sublime. We were all stuffed so no one ordered any dessert. Overall it was good value but the wine was a bit expensive.

I found the food and service excellent. Everything else was fine too but they were exceptional. I will and have been recommending it to my friends and colleagues. It was also very central.

Excellent Value! I went here at 8pm last Friday, had a booking, and the place was definitely busy. We had a table just to the left of the door by the window, which was nice. For starter I had potato and leek soup, and my boyfriend had the fried brie. Both were good. We had a bottle of house red, which was fine except they brought us unmatching wine glasses (one smaller!). For main I had the bangers and mash which was excellent - 2 large-ish sausages and tasty mash. My boyfriend had the 8oz steak which was cooked well but unfortunately just comes with chips and no gravy - he ended up using the sauce from my plate. Otherwise it was dry. The creme brulee is up to scratch - but the Baileys pudding was little disappointing - fairly bland. Staff very nice, service excellent. 3 courses each plus bottle of wine came to 66e - unbelievable value!

As a pre theatre treat we decided to go to this restaurant as its only around the corner from the Abbey. I had checked out most of the reviews none of which have anything bad to say so and I'm the same. We did book a table just to be on the safe side as its a fastly growing popular restaurant. The staff were extremely friendly and obliging from the moment we walked in. There were quite a few people there though it wasn't packed but it was Monday night after all. Starters are no more than €7.50 and mains no more than €12.50. I started with the Blue cheese, pear and walnut salad of which there was plenty but could have done with some dressing and my friend had the fish cakes which was also delicious. Then I had the low calorie chicken option of which there was loads of chicken and my friend had the lamb which fell of the bone. Every bit was devoured. Including 3 glasses of wine and the meal the bill was €55 which is great value for money. Would defo eat here again.

I have been to Le Bon Crubeen a good few times now and it's always been great. Friendly attentive service, really good value, and good simple French food. The sirloin steak is great value at €12.50. Also,the pub next door, owned by the same guy is great craic on weekend nights and serves a mighty pint of Guinness. Dublin needs more restaurants like this.

Friendly, helpful staff and a nice pub/restaurant atmosphere. Menu is very well priced (starters may be a bit overpriced though).. We had crab salad to start, it was quite nice but a bit creamy. The duck with bok choy main course was delicious though... a whole leg of duck and the meat was perfectly cooked, sweet and tender. My friend had the steak though, which looked more like a pork chop than a steak - the meat was white (?) but it was tasty enough all the same. The dessert was a bit of a let down, the cheesecake wasn't great and the rice pudding was a bit 'ambrosia' for our liking. All in all, a great meal and at a great price.
