Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Ballsbridge

Delicious food and friendly service. Plenty of atmosphere, not a place for a quiet conversation. Highly recommended

Really enjoyed visiting. The food is slightly overpriced in and of itself but more than made up for by the experience in terms of ambience. Overall, first time going but not the last!

Booked an early dinner for 2 people midweek. It was a small anniversary celebration for us. The restaurant was very quiet and we were greeted warmly and friendly by the host who assured us we could store our wheelchair without needing to bring it down to the table. Server was super friendly and personable. Our drinks and food came extremely quickly - right after our bread (fresh focaccia and olive oil) and drinks had just been brought. The food overall was delicious and very high quality. I had pork belly and sausage bucatini and got a full piece of pork belly on top of the pasta which had a delicious creamy sauce. My husband had pizza and ate every scrap of it. Also had a side of cheddar bacon fries. Yum! We got 2 desserts - mulled wine poached pears and a caramel sundae (couldn’t convince hubs to get the Christmas putting parfait with eggnog anglaise!) and a couple of cokes and a mocktail. Value was good for what we got - I did note a few items on the menu were quite highly priced a steak over €40 for example but that seems to be the norm now of extremely overly priced select items. Overall a delicious meal, friendly, attentive staff and a nice interior / vibe / decor in the place. My only small complaint was it was pretty cold - needed my jacket put back around my shoulders during the meal, It was the start of the freezing cold weather outside this week so maybe hadn’t thought to get heating going inside just yet! Otherwise no real complaints and will certainly be back ! Thanks for a lovely evening at Isabelle’s.

Amazing food and amazing staff. From the second we were greeted at the door we received the best experience. When booking I put in that it was our anniversary, and they gave us two glasses of Prosecco to celebrate! It was so thoughtful and really made our night. The food is delicious and we both recommend the Oreo cheesecake it’s to die for. There is good music playing and the decor is great too, lots to admire. Staff are extremely attentive and made us feel so welcome. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you Thunderroad!!

Outstanding night at Bobby’s last night. Incredible service leading up to and during the night. Great location for a large party and food and drink were tops. Gina was amazing helping us choose wines and telling us about each of them. Can’t wait to go back.
