Pichet

After good restaurants in Dublin, Ireland? This ultra-chic Temple Bar bistro has been recognised for its innovative fusion of Irish and French cuisines. Acclaimed chef Stephen Gibson spent a decade working all over the world, culminating in Pichet's exciting à la carte menu that simply must be tasted. 

Chapter One

One of the best Michelin Star restaurants in Dublin city centre, Chapter One is offering dining experiences like no other. The chef's table is the ideal way to celebrate a special occasion, with impeccable service, a view straight into the kitchen and a seven-course tasting menu made up of Ireland's finest ingredients.

Isabelle's

This South Anne Street spot offers a touch of class right in the centre of the city, with a long sweeping bar, contemporary art and an open kitchen for peeping at your food in anticipation. Topping it off, Isabelle's vast à la carte menu makes it the perfect place for a family gathering.

777

777 is a mini slice of Mexico in the heart of central Dublin; leave your inhibitions at the door and dive into their insane (and somewhat scary) selection of tequilas whilst chowing down on tacos, quesadillas and fiery sides. Mexican wrestling masks are, of course, encouraged.

Balfes

This bright and airy brasserie boasts a chic aesthetic to please even the pickiest of Instagrammers. With lofty ceilings, marble tables, and a sunny outdoor terrace, Balfe's is great for any occasion, offering everything from weekend brunches through to date night dinners. 

Brookwood

A supreme spot for steak, Brookwood is a haven for meat-lovers seeking out dinner in the city centre. It's here that you'll find a menu of gastro and grilled goodies, made using the finest in Irish produce and paired with an expertly curated selection of wines.
