Brace yourself Dublin - a slice of the USA is coming your way (don’t worry, it’s not an impromptu visit from a certain blonde-haired, orange-skinned man), but a swanky stateside-inspired eatery.

Mackenzie’s is a new bar and bistro located on the Grand Canal Basin’s edge. Boasting views of the River Liffey and Dublin’s docklands, the vistas run the risk of distracting from the just-as-attractive menu, which is jam-packed full of crowd-pleasing classics.

Well-equipped to satisfy even the fussiest of diners, the dishes on offer here range from hearty burgers to stone-baked pizzas, juicy steaks and decadent sushi platters. Group dining to suit all tastes? Completed it mate. 

The interiors will take the same no-frills approach as the food, with a large open kitchen centring around a copper pizza oven, as well as exposed brickwork, low-hanging pendant lights and cheering soft furnishings.  

Mouth-watering food at affordable prices with a waterside view? This place looks set to well and truly trump its competition.
