Our dinner was a joy from beginning to end. The food and wine were sensational but what you can’t get elsewhere is the atmosphere. I put this down to an exceptional staff led by the charismatic and intuitive Zelda. Wow she MAKES the place- loved by all, she is a total pro. Thrilled with the return of this Dublin institution.

I went for brunch with 2 of my friends and we all really enjoyed it. It was a bank holiday Monday so it was quite busy which meant at times, service was a little slow and it was hard to get a waiter's attention (but nothing major!) The food was really good, would definitely recommend the pancakes with seasonal fruit. I think it is good value for money too, we were all comfortably full by the time we left. Bonus: it is dog friendly!
