    First time here and it was a nice experience. I had the roast beef and I have to admit by far it was the tastiest roast beef I have ever eaten, the roast potatoes were the best ever too. It was quiet when I was there and would recommend. It is a little pricey but a different place to eat for me. Will be back again for sure,

    I loved the service and atmosphere, but my eggs arrived very cold. I would go again, it's so cosy and fancy at the same time.

    Service slow and a main course soup was no more than a starter. Disappointed

    I took friend to lunch to celebrate his 76th birthday. I had booked the table beforehand. The food was as good as anywhere but not extraordinary though the portions were generous. Strangely, no starters on the menu? The service from the waiting staff was excellent and the wine also. However the outing was ruined by the lack of involvement from the young lady who met us at the entrance and showed us to our table. She didn’t size up that coming in the door to her were two elderly gentlemen. I asked her to put us somewhere warm - it was bitterly cold day. She showed us to a table in the Atrium with high stools - not great for two past their mid seventies! We asked for a table at ‘ground’ level and she showed us to a table inside the door which turned out to be freezing cold. Every time the front door opened - and it did so frequently - a cold gale blew in on us. Don’t think we’ll be returning to the Grayson.

    We have eaten in The Grayson a few times. Last night, we were a table of 4. Service and food was 1st class, as always. Our guests really enjoyed the view across Stephen's Green. However, both this time and the previous time (we were on the 2nd floor previously with the same view) there has been a large group beside us. The noise from the group overwhelmed our conversation for a part of the evening. Fortunately, a few members of the larger group left and this brought the volume down. So overall, a beautiful restaurant, great food and service but maybe seat smaller groups separate to larger ones!!

    Food was tasty. Sea Bass with mussel rissoto served in a soup bowl which made eating a bit awkward. I will return.
