Ciao Bella RomaPosted on 13 January 2013
Ciao Bella Roma never disappoint me!
It was a while since I went there last time, but returned for a girls night out before Christmas, they offer us the early bird option which in December is very rare for restaurant in Dublin to keep it. The food was as usually great, bruschette and pizza plus wine for only 14 euro, and other selection of pasta and meat.
Definitely a place to go if you want to taste good Italian food and not ending up spending a fortune!
Will be back soon!

YumPosted on 13 January 2013
Amazing very nice and friendly place.
Food gorgeously delicious, big massive and tasty burgers accompanied by a choice of healthy salads and chips or baked potatoes.
We went for the smoke beef burger and the chicken fillet one, both were delicious and not heavy on your stomach even though they were huge!
Definitely I recommend the place, the staff was very welcoming and attentive to our needs, they even gave us a free dessert voucher for the next time we would visit them, which would be very soon!!

Rock LobsterPosted on 13 January 2013
Extremely disappointing. Went to celebrate my boyfriend birthday, and it was a complete disaster.
Apparently already at the beginning of the evening, at 19.00, they run out of seafood as well as wine, and waited until we order one of the few wines available to advise that the choice of seafood was extremely limited.
For a couple of starters and some frozen "hand-cut" chips and a small portion of mussels plus the wine we ended up spending almost 80 euro, which was in my opinion a rip off.
Would definitely NOT going back EVER again.

Gourmet Burger Kitchen (GBK Temple Bar)Posted on 30 September 2012
Went for lunch on a Friday and had the Aubergine & Goats Cheese, which I wouldn't recommend, aubergines are soaked in olive oil and not really tasty, while the breaded goats cheese is a bit to much, dint enjoy my selection, but my bf had the beacon burger and it was delicious, the meat was very tasty and not over spiced, the burgers are massive, definitely will be back to try different options

Cinnamon RestaurantPosted on 30 September 2012
Went on a Saturday for wine and something to bite, we got the mixed plate were there were supposed to be meat, grilled vegetables and cheese, overpriced for what has been presented, the olives and the cheese didn't taste as if they were the real stuff. On the other hand the Italian wine we selected was very nice and not too expensive.
The atmosphere was cosy and relaxed although the service should really improve, they don't look very organized, The place really doesn't deliver what you expect from the trendy look, and nice atmosphere.
Would recommend it just for drinks.

La Bodega Tapas y VinosPosted on 16 May 2012
Went on a girls night out during the week, it was busy enough. We expected a wide selection of wines, but not for glasses only, which I found quite strange for a wine-tapas bar.
The differences in size between tapas and raciones wasnt so huge, the food was too salty and I really wouldnt reccomend it, not even for a drink.

RussosPosted on 05 April 2012
Dine with boyfriend with a grabone voucher, I had the mussules as starter and seafood tagliatelle as main, delicious, a bit heavy with
the cream, but amazing! Boyfriedn had the antipasto misto as starter, a huge tagliere of cured meat and cheese, delicious, he had pizza as main, and it was great, maybe too much of the topping, but thin and light as a real Italian Pizza, an Italian waitress was serving us, and she was absolutely charming. I really reccomend the place, it is good food and good value, and the only restaurant that I know that offer you a late bird, well done, keep it up the good standards!

Millstone, A Dublin RestaurantPosted on 30 May 2010
Went with a bunch of girlfriends to celebrate a hen's party. We had an amazing dinner and the service was very glamorous. The atmospheare is always very special and cosy, the food was delicious and we did have a great time, unfortunately the big table beside us was celebrating a stag party and it arrived at the restaurant quite drunk and kept drinking and drinking up to a point that we stopped enyoing our dinner and left as soon as the meal was over.

The Dropping WellPosted on 30 May 2010
I went this morning with my boyfriend for a Sunday Irish Breakfast.I asked the waitress to take out the black pudding from my breakfast and I had been served only black pudding!! When I explain the mistake to another waitress, She was going to change the order, but the first one very rudely explain that I was colour blind and left me with a wrong order, extremely unsatisfied as I am not either color blind or stupid. I certainly wouldnt repeat the experience!And I would never set my foot at this pub again.

The Port HousePosted on 09 November 2009
Lovely atmospheare and very stylish tapas bar. I have been there few times, and altough I think the food is too expensive and the value not worthed the price, I love their wine list. I had an aperitif with a lovely Spanish wine, olives and nuts, was delicious, wouldnt reccomend it for a full dinner evening.

Dunne And Crescenzi (South Frederick Street)Posted on 14 October 2009
I went to D&C last sunday for lunch with my boyfriend, we popped in for a quick salad meal. We had two different salads and a glass of vine each. The food and the wine were good, even though we were expecting more generous portions; the service was fast and friendly. We were both very disappointed by the presentation of the table:a paper table-mat with cutlery wrapped in a cheap paper-serviette, and glasses that looked dirty probably from too much trips to the dishwasher! What a disppointment!

Oliveto RestaurantPosted on 25 July 2009
Went twice already, the first time was great and wanted to repeat the experience! Enjoyed the starters, tagliere vegetariano and cestino di pane were so tasty we clean the plates. Pizza is the best I have ever had in Ireland, thin base and with original ingredients, being Italian I am a fussy eater in Italian restaurants, but I felt at home here, I already reccomended the place to friends and colelagues, the food and the atmospheare are worth every penny.
