    the ambience is nice and the interior is cozy and all, but hey, its all about the food in the end! so.., the food is, a disappointment, just like all the other fancy restaurants in dublin :) asked steak to be cooked medium, but the one i got was basically well-done; the meat was very chewy and almost no flavour! ordered salmon and tasted like something i can get from tesco. please focus more on the food and less on the interior, maybe that would help :)

    Beautiful Christmas night in Fade street, the food and service was excellent. The place was very busy but our waitress was great at running through the menu and looking after our table.

    Service was so incredibly poor. We sat down at 1 and received our food at almost 2pm. Our mains arrived and sides took 10mins to come and it was all just a bit of a mess. The food was great but because it took an hour to get our main courses we didn’t get anything else. We were there for a special occasion and it was just a bit disappointing

    We were a table of 3 for 12:30 and got put into the far corner of a giant dining room that was freezing cold because the staff had left doors open. A further table of 3 arrived about 45 mins later and were seated at the opposite end to us, and then no one else arrived into the room until after 2pm when a giant office party arrived. So we were basically alone in the restaurant section for 80% of our meal. This despite the higher tier of the restaurant being busy and appearing to have good atmosphere. Unfortunately, despite being the only table in a giant room, the waiting staff were more interested in having a laugh with themselves, than coming over and seeing if we wanted anything. Bizarrely, the meal took nearly 2.5 hours to finish with long gaps between courses. There were a lot of items unavailable from the drinks menu. Starters were nice, and steak was tasty too. However, the chips were overcooked, the broccoli burnt and the mash was a pot of slop. The dessert menu was uninspiring so didn't bother to have any. Finally, when we got our desserts, the manager announced that they were under pressure for our table and would need us to finish up. This despite them taking so long to serve us throughout the

    Food was ok and the Christmas lunch menu was quite good value! The service was extremely bad - we were almost finished lunch when our drinks came (we had to ask multiple times). Felt extremely excessive having a €90 service charge applied when it was so poor!

    We had a fantastic time at Fade Street Social for our work Christmas party! The festive atmosphere was perfect, and the food was delicious. We especially loved the rooftop terrace - what a great way to cap off the evening!

    We went for dinner last night, and it was such a great experience! The service was lovely, the cocktails were delicious, and the tomahawk was the best we've ever tried. Plus, the short rib mac and cheese was out of this world! Highly recommend this place!

    Had dinner at Fade Street Social - The Main Restaurant tonight, and it was excellent! The atmosphere was lively but comfortable, with great attention to detail in the service. The staff were friendly and helpful, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The food was top-notch—well-prepared, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but the quality and overall experience made it worth it. Definitely a spot I’d recommend and revisit!
