Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Drumcondra (D1)

The food was amazing and much better priced than most steak restaurants in the area. We also loved the casual atmosphere. My only knock is that they don’t have any salads, but then it is a steak restaurant. One of my favorite items (other than the steak) was the arancini appetizer. The flavors were wonderful.

Great experience, food was amazing food was delicious loved our experience here we will definitely be back we had a great night, espresso martinis are fantastic also

Every dish was completely nailed-on. Utterly delicious, adventurous and classy cooking, served by stylish, knowledgable, engaging and engaged staff. Cracking wine list - whites served from magnums?! Wonderful! I had heard from friends and colleagues that this was going to be good, and what had promised to be excellent was over-delivered on at every point. A seriously enjoyable and enjoyably serious experience!

Hawksmoor Dublin is always a great dining experience. It’s my favorite steak place in Dublin. I like how they have all the daily available great steaks listed on a chalk board by size. The steaks and sides are wonderful. The service is great, and I like the upscale but relaxed environment there. I look forward to my return for another great dinner.

Overall, the dinner was lovely. The interior is beautiful and gives a great first impression. The food was gorgeous, pricey but you pay not only for food but also ambiance so I absolutely don't mind! However, the only downside was the service. On a quiet day, there is absolutely no reason to put the only two tables right beside each other, it was rather awkward. One situation that left quite a bad taste in my mouth was when the staff argued about an order. It was a genuine mistake - I ordered a lamb bao, and received a lobster one. Completely different but I had the staff argue as the lobster bao is called "Lambay" and tried to tell me I was the one that ordered wrong... Just a mistake however it wasn't handled great. The food was gorgeous, the spiced margarita with the lychee foam one of the best ones I had, but overall experience was a bit tainted and unfortunately I won't be rushing back.
