We were very impressed with this little gastro pub, bistro, steak place; you can decide what to call them. We read both Alex S. and Philippine W.'s reviews and decided we needed to come here. It also helps that we were staying very close by, less than 50 meters. LOL When you enter, you are greeted and given a few seating options. We chose nearer the small bar area (photo), opposite a group of ten German tourists. Because of the mirror over their seating, it also gave us a nice view of the open style kitchen. Bread promptly appeared and since this was our first meal in Dublin, we decided to share a bottle of Pinot Grogio, only €27.00. It was was a great start. Our entrées were Cod on top of a bed of Risotto €18.00, and a Crispy Herbspiced Chicken €17.00 (photos). Both were delicious and we finished our evening with their signature (photo), no pun intended, Cappuccino. Our server Lydia was very professional and friendly. Our bill, with gratuities and VAT came to only €65. Incredible. Enjoy! read more

Well, JP is still there, and he is as charming as everyone says he is! The food at 1900 is very good. I had the halibut (delicious), and my husband had a steak (tender, moist, and perfect temperature). All the servers were extremely polite and attentive. JP checked on us several times and chatted with us briefly at the end of our meal. This is a great place for a couple to have a nice quiet meal together. It's definitely worth visiting. read more

excellent food, service, ambiance, prices, you won't go wrong. Visited as a single person and still provided excellent service!!

It looks pretty fancy, I actually felt slightly underdressed when coming in. Ssssst - shall I tell you a secret? ...... It's. Not!! It just looks really really nice, the food is good and not expensive at all. I was really surprised! That's just to sum it up folks... Now here's the extended version: Lunch break + hungry + not much time so we decided to have lunch just around the corner from our office. One step in and we were immediately welcomed with a witty joke, how nice is that?! Tab water on the table without asking, very friendly waitress and good food! Beetroot salad with goat's cheese made me felt healthy instantly, flavourful chicken soup to warm my heart. Everything plated nicely and the portions are huge! When they state "light bites", well let me tell you: huuuuuge portions. And again, let emphasise that it's NOT expensive!! I wouldn't say: travel all the way through Dublin to go here, but if you're in the hood - definitely go here for lunch!! read more

What a fantastic little bistro this was. It was rainy, it was cold and I had a massive lunch time hunger - and helping me out was the fantastic looking 1900 just 2 mins around the corner from our office. I'm definitely more of a soup or sandwich type of guy for lunch time but when away with work I do tend to eat more as you're never to sure where your next main meal is coming from, especially if a trip to the pub after work beckons and your evening meal just basically becomes a late night burger or kebab on the way home. I ordered a fantastic braised beef rib (12 Euros) which literally fell of the bone, served with fantastic veges and mash - I don't even mind admitting that I stole a few of my dining companions amazing fries to dip into it too (double yum is what that's called) Overall a fantastic little place - I'd be interested in seeing what it's like at night. read more

What a pleasant find! The staff was welcoming and polite. We were a group of four women and we were treated well. Our waiter was attentive and solicitous of our needs. The starters and entrees were delicious and we appreciated the care with which everything was served. The manager gave us information about the restaurant and it's history, with humor and charm. I would recommend 1900 to anyone looking for a great dining experience in Dublin. read more

What a pleasure to eat in a restaurant like this. It's a lovely, comfortable spot, decorated with dark woods and dimmed lighting. Despite being very busy on the day, the staff were attentive and friendly and always seemed on top of it. Then there's the food. Incredible value and really very good. I had a pulled pork sandwich with tomato soup, for nine euro. Absolute bargain. The pulled pork was lovely and I really enjoyed the combination of the apple and celery slaw. The sandwich was made out of a soft bap which was also fresh and soft. I suggested that perhaps it would be a good idea to have a wholewheat / brown bread option, as many, like myself would like the choice. I also thought the bread to filling ratio was a little off - needs more stuff inside! The star of the show though was the desert. I ordered banoffi pie which came on a board with a piece of fresh banana bread, toasted, and a little jar of pie - loaded with cream, carmelised bananas, and general deliciousness. I would love to return and try out one of their mains to see if they live up to those exceptional deserts. Incidentally, the restaurant is named after a crash in 1900 when a train crashed straight through the wall in the Harcourt Street station into Hatch St, with the train left dangling in the air. The restaurant is in the middle of adding little touches in homage to this historical incident. They have some subtle etchings on the walls, and some artistic images echoing it, without being too theme-like. Being based just around the corner, I am certain that I'll be frequenting this place quite a lot from now on. read more

Meh, take it or leave it! That's my opinion here... I've been here on a few occasions for lunch, with my office being just around the corner so it's handy however the food for me is just average. I've opted for the grilled chicken sandwich once, it was ok though some ingredients made the bread get soggy which by the time it was served to me I didn't quite get the sandwich feeling about it as it has soaked up the juices; my latest visit I got the fish cakes, there were ok, lacked seasoning to bring out the best of the flavours plus the breadcrumbs had a greasy look about them so perhaps could be left to stand a little longer. Service is general quick and efficient, for a lunch venue they do have the turnaround timing sorted here. For 1 hour lunch break, you can be in, seated, ordered and fed with plenty of time to spare, so massive kudos for that. Works nicely for all the businesses in the area. Staff have always come across friendly and welcoming. read more

We dashed in here from the pouring rain looking for a table for 5 people. I didn't feel like we were given the warmest of welcomes, and we were made to stand and wait at the side of the dining area while the waiter got a table ready for us, making us feel like we were in the way and generally unwelcome which wasn't the best start to the meal. I'd have been happy to take a seat and have the table cleaned around us. Anyway, onto the food. The lunch menu is pretty reasonable and has a bunch of decent sounding options - I went for the chicken supreme with mashed potato and ordered and extra side of chips (I mean, I'd been in the rain in a morph suit, I needed all the carbs). When it arrived, it was actually served with gnocchi which I thought was really odd as the menu and the waiter both confirmed it came with mash and no one had come to let me know they were making a swap. It didn't matter too much as generally it was still a good dish (although the gnocchi was on the gluggy side). The basket of chips was a good addition and made for a good sharing size between two. I really wanted to enjoy here more than I did -- the service being a little gruff and the food being changed without checking was a bit frustrating, but all up I'd give here another go when I return to Dublin as it's so handy for our office. read more

I've been back to 1900 many times since my first review and each time it has impressed. Most occasions have been with sizeable groups and they've handled it well. Today I had the Smoked Salmon bagel with fries. They indulged my request and removed the capers. It was an excellent and very tasty sandwich. I really enjoyed it. Staff were nice and very prompt with their service. Also you can get a free tea or coffee, Monday to Wednesday if you check in on yelp! I didn't avail of this today, but next time I can, I will. read more

We live in the USA and this is the second time in two years that we got to eat at this OUTSTANDING restaurant. The food and staff are phenomenal. Let me speak about the staff first. The first time we ate there we had an incredible waiter named JP. I thought after two years he will not remember us. As soon as we walked in the door, JP said "my friends from New Mexico are back". We that made our night. The steaks and sauces were amazing and we had an incredible wine. All very affordable priced. We can't wait to return to Dublin and eat there again as well as see our friend JP Jim and Terry Albuquerque, New Mexico USA read more

I had the pleasure of having two meals here during my week-long stay. For lunch with a co-worker, the special "sandwich" of the week was a pasta carbonara. Yummy al dente noodles with creamy, salty, white sauce. Tender chicken topped the dish - it was well seasoned. The sauce had loads of pancetta to give the egg-creme sauce a wonderful salty bite. I was disappointed that it wasn't served with soup or salad, but for €9, it's hard to complain. For dinner, I had the roasted salmon on top of creamy mash. The salmon was cooked perfectly medium, with crispy skin. Theash was fine, and it was creamy as described. The plate was dotted with a sweet yam mash - perfectly balancing the saltiness of the dish. My meal paired well with a delightful Sauvignon blanc. This was by far my favorite meal in Dublin! Service was standard - polite and quick. The space is very elegant, yet not stuffy - a great inviting space for a casual meal or a nice date. I will be back to dine here when I come back. Kudos to the chef! read more

John Paul was a great server I loved the veggie soup of the day! I will say the crab salad was a bit smaller than expected but I'm also American so maybe I'm just used to bigger portions all in all a great dinner! read more

Best service and food I've found in Dublin! Dennis and JP were our waiters as we enjoyed the best wild rice risotto my wife and I've ever know!The service was outstanding and the food was legendary! It reminds me of some of the smaller restaurants found in tucked away nooks in Italy. These delightful finds have the freshest ingredients and the chef who knows how to bring it all together. This is one place you do NOT want to miss when you come to Dublin! If you have the good fortune to find either Dennis or JP on duty when you arrive, you will know that you are going to have an enduring and endearing feast! read more

This place is better than their 4 1/2 star rating. Quieter than the typical Dublin Restaurant. Acoustic music playing over the speakers, food was amazing, great friendly servers, food was presented well and very fast. If you're near here and want to have a great eating experience, please give them a try and give them a high rating! read more

We were in Ireland for a week. The food and ambiance were great. We ate there a second time on our last night in town! The steak was wonderful. The pork belly entree is awesome! read more

Yummmy lunch was had here by non other than myself. I had the carrot and coriander soup which was divine and the stake sandwich which looked too big to conquer but actually was just perfect. The steak was thinly sliced and tender unlike most steak sandwiches. Really flavorsome and cheap as chips! read more

1900 never fails to disappoint especially when it comes to chicken wings. Service is always quick which makes it a great place to visit on your lunch break, the portions are generous, the food is tasty and the prices are reasonable which ticks all the boxes in my book read more

Had to reduce from 5 to 3. Really disappointed with the food in here the last few times. I loved the chicken supreme first time around but yesterday I had it again and there was nothing to it at all. The chicken wings have also decreased in tingling my taste buds. Staff are friendly enough and price is standard for around the area. read more

Thanks so much Kevin, manager and his crew at 1900 for making our dinner celebration for our wedding such a memorable event last Friday. From the initial meeting to arrange the event to on the day Kevin was attentive and arranged everything in collaboration with us to meet our needs, Everyone was raving about how great the food was on the day. Definitely would recommend this venue for an intimate dinner or group event. read more

Was so looking forward in coming here after reading all the good reviews about it. But was very disappointed. My steak was so chewy that i could not eat it. I also asked for my steak medium but my steak looks like it was medium rare as it was very very pink. So, i ate only half of it. No one asked our table if our meal is ok. Won't be going back. read more

This was a true find on our trip. My husband, daughter and myself had dinner here. It was one of the best meals of our trip. We each got the 3 course meal for €26. We each got a different starter: mushroom soup ( excellent - rich and creamy ) goat cheese salad ( warm goat cheese -very good ) and pork cheek ( braised cabbage was delicious ) For entrees my daughter and I both got the free range roasted chicken. It was moist and flavorful. Hubby got hake a fresh water fish. It was flakey and seasoned well. Dessert was 3 sticky toffee puddings. When dessert came I was sure I couldn't eat anymore --- but one taste was not enough and I cleaned my plate. The staff was very attentive, the bartender knew how to pour a Guinness and the decor was inviting and relaxed. A wonderful evening in Dublin for sure. read more

The food for dinner here is fantastic and presented very beautifully! Easily a 4 star meal. I had the salmon and really loved it. The only reason I am rating it so poorly is because of the overall experience of the night. It is unfortunate that the two clubs on either side (all connected) are not as exceptional as 1900. After our dinner of a party of 7 we decided to go to one of the two clubs next door. We first tried the bar to the right and were refused as most of us did not meet the age requirement of 28 years of age, I have never heard such a thing. I am 25 years old (all of our party was 25+) and from New York City. I thought past 21 I was in the clear, guess not. Once we began to leave the doorman said that he has spoken to his boss and they would let us go in. At the stage we figured it was best to go to the other bar since we had others meeting us and didn't want them to be refused when they arrived. We spent the entire evening in the bar to the left of 1900, which apparently is more of a college hangout, as I felt like the oldest person there. It was no bother to us anyway we had a great evening drinking and dancing (really good music). Around 12:30 I had to run across the street to the hotel I was staying in to grab something for a friend. When I left the bar no one stopped me or notified me that I needed my hand stamped to return. I had no jacket on and was wearing a sleeveless blouse. When I returned to enter the bar I was refused the the bouncer who has seen me walk out just 10 minutes before. He then told me that if I had no stamp I had to go downstairs. I agreed even though I was freezing and the entire party I was with was right inside the front door. When I finally got through another bouncer, who went on to criticize my passport, I went to the downstairs door where I was told I had to pay in. I had no money with me nor was my cellphone in use as I was visiting front the US. When I told him all of this he said "Not my problem, there is an ATM around the corner". Since I couldn't get in downstairs I went back upstairs to again ask the bouncer there to let me in. He again refused. Luckily as I was speaking with him my boyfriend and entire party came out. When I told them the situation two of my Irish friends asked why he has not let me in. He went on to tell them that I had called him a very profound name, which isn't even in the American vocabulary, and was completely untrue. I have NEVER been treated so RUDELY at a bar or club! We were all totally shocked by there behavior and they have lost our business in all three of their establishments. read more

So I called into 1900 the other day thinking it was super posh and might be a bit expensive, but was surprised to see what good value the lunches are. I got a pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw and apple sandwich with chips on the side. The whole lot only came to €9 which is amazing value. The pork was tender and delicious, and the chips were nice and crispy. Great place, will be back. read more

I had a nice soup and sandwich combo here yesterday. Both very nice, well presented, decent value and good service. Menu is reasonably basic but I work close by so it's actually a bit of a niche to have somewhere good for a sit down sandwich. Will most likely become a regular haunt. read more

Lunch was good. Very tasty, gorgeous chips! Slightly over priced in my opinion for what you get and the other options in the area. The staff were lovely, polite and attentive to begin with, impressive especially during the lunch rush but unfortunately it took forever to pay. We finished our meal, flagged down a waiter to run back to work and were left sitting there waiting for the bill for 10 minutes and another 10 to get the card machine. Will definitely go back but maybe not on a limited lunch break!! read more

Didn't realise this was a hotel restaurant until we arrived. For some reason I tend to avoid these types of joints (prefer to support the little guy) but I'm glad we went through with it. Arrived around 9 PM on a Friday so I was expecting to wait for a table but it was actually quite empty. Again, I was worried I was making a big mistake. Much to my relief, we ended up having a gorgeous dinner-- caesar salad to start (so, so good without being too heavy), gnocchi (divine) for myself and chicken supreme for himself. Server was the perfect balance of courteous but personable. We were shocked when the bill came at how reasonable the prices were-- what a joy to not feel robbed after a nice dinner in Dublin! To top this all off, we went to the lounge next door after dinner and were treated to some great acoustic guitar. However by about 11, the cougars were arriving in droves, so we quickly made our leave. Will absolutely be back for another fantastic meal at 1900. read more

Amazing meal for both my wife and I start to finish! Braised pork cheek, Beet and Goat Cheese Salad; Duck and Ribeye; and then the icing on the cake (literally) was the Sticky Toffee Pudding OMG. Flavors across the meal were very well balanced and many were locally sourced. Service was punctual, efficient, but not over bearing. Kudos to the entire team. read more
