    We decided to share a VCC Sharing platter and it felt like it was the right decision in order to get the best of everything. It was all freshly prepared and delicious, the only word of caution would be that the sliders are more on the juicy side, so plate and napkin advised! The playlist was also very enjoyable and the staff were incredibly kind, always cautioning us if a drink was going to be spicy or bitter. Overall it was a marvelous evening.

    One of my favourite dining experiences in Dublin. The food was excellent, particularly the seabass. The serveice was great too. Only issue was the guinness seems to come from a can as the glass was never full on any pint, which is a shame for the price they charge. Other than that the value for money was great. Highly recommend this place

    My wife and I had the pleasure of celebrating Valentine's Day at The Wine Cellar at Fallon & Byrne, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we stepped into the cozy, candlelit basement, we knew we were in for a memorable evening. The ambiance was intimate yet lively, striking the perfect balance between elegance and warmth. The exposed brick walls, soft lighting, and the extensive selection of wines surrounding us created an atmosphere that felt both refined and inviting. The wine list, as expected, was outstanding—carefully curated with an impressive variety to suit every palate. The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, helping us select the perfect bottle to complement our meal. Their recommendations were spot on, and their attention to detail made us feel truly valued. As for the food, it was simply divine. Every dish was crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. From the artisanal cheese board to the perfectly cooked mains, each bite was a delight. What truly set the evening apart, however, was the service. The team was attentive without being intrusive, ensuring that our glasses were never empty and that we had everything we needed for a seamless dining experience. If you're looking for a charming spot for a romantic date night or just an exquisite wine and dining experience in Dublin, The Wine Cellar at Fallon & Byrne is an absolute must-visit. We left with full hearts and happy palates, already planning our next visit!
