One of the best steaks I’ve ever had, hands down the best value for money you will find in Dublin. 30€ 3 course meal left absolutely stuffed! Unlimited chips as well and garlic bread, staff were beyond lovely and so helpful, accommodating as well. Food came so quick, was cooked and seasoned perfectly. I cannot stress this enough, please go to try this place I promise you won’t be disappointed. Will definitely be going there again!

On this occasion we had brunch, two adults and two kids 14 and 9 y.o. Our table was ready on arrival. All food arrived at exactly the same time, and was cooked perfectly. The staff couldn't have been better. It was all very efficient but not rushed. This restaurant is very comfortable and the tables are a generous size. The kids hadn't been before, but want to go back for dinner.

Excellent food with the right size portions for a 3 course meal. The complementary small tasty soup is a lovely gesture and all the courses are beautifully presented and taste great. Warm but unobtrusive service and no rushing customers to get the table back. Highly recommended.
