My husband and I showed up here on a Saturday evening around 6:30 without a reservation because it was close to our hotel and it had a good rating. I knew it was a gamble but I thought we'd try anway and I'm so glad we did. Upon arrival, we explained to the hostess that we hadn't made a reservation, fully expecting to be turned away. However, after reviewing their bookings, they graciously offered us a one-hour sitting.
Initially, I was put off by the loud music, a seemingly common feature in Dublin restaurants. Nevertheless, the exceptional service and delicious food quickly overshadowed any initial reservations. As more patrons arrived, the music became less noticeable, allowing us to fully enjoy our meal.
We started with soda bread and butter, which was flavorful and satisfying without being overly dense. While my husband's venison dish was mild, my ribeye was rich and savory. Personally, I wasn't a fan of the mashed potatoes, finding them too smooth for my taste, but this may simply be a personal preference for more textured mash.
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the service. The hostess (I think her name was Bridgette) who seated us exuded professionalism and warmth, clearly a seasoned hospitality professional. Her guidance and support were evident in every interaction, as she patiently mentored the younger staff members with gentle instructions. It was clear that she took pride in ensuring guests had a memorable dining experience.
