    Pleasant experience, and took the pressure off getting to a concert after dining- we were there already! The food was tasty; I had beautiful lamb. The portion size was a little small, I had mains and dessert only, I should have gone for a starter too. But I'll definitely go there again for our next concert.

    Service was very slow. The special meal (pasta with seafood) was tasteless, watery, lacking in any vegetables such as onion or garlic and looked awful. In fact I cannot imagine how any chef/cook could send such a dish to a table. It was a disgrace overpriced.

    Staff are warm and welcoming, made sure we were comfortable even ensured there was a spot for my mobility aid. Food was absolutely top tier, allergen warning s were clearly laid out and the food was absolutely delicious. Utterly wonderful experience and I will definitely dine there again.

    I had Caesar salad, fish and undercooked chips, a mineral, tiramisu and tea. At €118 for two of us it was grossly overpriced but a pleasant evening nonetheless, and the venue is very convenient for the Concert Hall. Service was efficient and pleasant. Menu was very basic and the fish and chips were no better than any decent chipper but considerably more expensive.

    Mediocre over-priced food and very restricted menu. starters in particular ie €17 / 18 for Bruscheta which was cold and the 5 small pieces of battered calamari were rubbery . Mains of fish and chips and Lamb were OK, but not restauraunt quality , in fact not even pub quality. Service was fine . We go to the NCH regularly but won't be eating there again .

    Really excellent food and attentive service. Considering this is in the venue, our expectations were far exceeded, with both service and menu that is better than most of the local restaurants. Highly recommended, even when not visiting the NCH!

    The waitress was lovely. The food was of a very ordinary standard considering the price. The restaurant was quite noisy as well. Despite the convenience of eating there before a concert in the National Concert Hall, I won't be going back there anytime soon.
