    This is a unique food experience. The Cellar, food and servíce vas outstanding. We were 8 people for dinner and everything we exspected came true. The rack of lamb was one of the best lambdishes we have tasted and also the striploin and the ribeye was cooked to perfection. We all had different starters and they were all very good. In the end a slice of tiramisu put everything into a satisfying bundle of a special dinner. Many thanks for everything.

    This is one of the best meals I have had in a very long time. The food was excellent, fantastic choices and flavours that were out of this world. Beautiful rich tastes, every bite layered. A party for the taste buds. As a coeliac I have been extremely disappointed with the restaurant experiences in Dublin, but I think I just found my favourite restaurant last night. The service was brilliant, this was a birthday dinner and we were treated to a free glass of Prosecco on arrival and a mini birthday cake with candle at the end of the meal. The staff was friendly, informative and we were never left waiting. I will be coming back for years to come!

    Booked for Saturday bottomless Mimosa brunch, lovely place with a great vibe. Service was really friendly. Food was tasty but not a huge menu to choose from. Our only "complaint" is that there was quite a lot of OJ in the Mimosas. However I've already rebooked with another group of friends as it is lovely and great value for money in a central location.
