Marco Pierre White’s idea of simple is old school: elegant dishes prepared using the finest ingredients by chefs trained in London by Marco himself. The deceptively simple menu demands every dish earn its place: the choicest cuts of meat, freshest fish, classic sauces. The vibe? Grown up, relaxed, playful. The setting? An opulent room you’ll feel at home in, only better!

Dublin's most famous pub, certainly in a literary sense, with its Joycean associations. Always classy and fashionable. It's the original Dublin gastropub at over 100 years old.Anybody who is familiar with Dublin pub food will be aware of Davy Byrne’s food reputation, in which seafood is the speciality.If you visit the premises at lunchtime and evening time, you will witness the huge trade which is done in fresh Seafood, Wagyu Burgers and pub classics like Fish & Chips. There is also a full range of Salads and Sandwiches to compliment these and, as often as not, you can enjoy Oysters and Guinness.The classic Gorgonzola sandwich with a glass of Burgundy as mentioned in Ulysses is available every day.Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate strollers/buggies indoors at Davy Byrnes but subject to availability, we can at our outside terraced area. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Wow! Exceptional service and top-quality food! We can’t believe we’ve only just discovered this place. The waitstaff were incredibly friendly and attentive from the moment we arrived until the end of our meal. And the food — absolutely phenomenal! We’ve dined at many restaurants around the world, but this was hands down the best steak we’ve ever had. After dinner, we enjoyed some time at the bar, soaking in the live music, sipping cocktails, and admiring the beautiful garden view. Huge thanks to Fire Steakhouse for the impeccable service and an unforgettable experience!

Food was okay. A bit pricy for what you got, but it was Christmas, so that was okay. Service was kind, but very slow. Again it was Christmas so that was fine too. They added a service charge which is not customary in Ireland. Not cool. I was going to tip because again it was Christmas, but I don’t appreciate when it’s added already. We didn’t have a large group.
