Service was great, prompt and friendly. Restaurant is pretty cool, loved the vibe. Food was tasty. I thought it was a little expensive but later realized we drank a lot of the margaritas. lol. Make sure to have a marg, they are great! read more

The vegetarian tacos were not good. They lacked flavor and salsa. Not even a close attempt to Mexican tacos. Also, I wanted to get tortilla chips and salsa and it's not available certain day. read more

Cool spot for food and drinks in Dublin! They don't take reservations, so you might have to wait, but we went around 5:30 on a Saturday and didn't have to wait. They have an indoor section with a larger menu, and then an outdoor, covered area where we sat. They offer an array of tacos and chips and guac with fun drinks. The tacos were amazing! We got the pork and avocado ones, and I'd recommend both! Music was a little loud, so its definitely more of a fun vibe, but we enjoyed it. read more

We attended the night of their Halloween party, which we were not told about, and treated like filth. They honestly shouldn't have opened for service ahead as I think this was the main issue. That is, however, not our fault and they have done nothing to resolve the situation. I sent the attached email, which has been ignored so am now leaving a review: Hello, I hope this email finds you well. I am emailing as my partner and I had a very uncomfortable and disappointing time at your restaurant yesterday evening. I typically do not follow up, especially as I know it was the end of a long bank holiday, but the time at 777 made us feel incredibly undervalued and spoiled the last evening of our 3 week break in Ireland so I felt it appropriate to reach out. To say first, the cocktails were incredible. I am from Austin, Texas originally and I haven't had such a fantastic margarita in a very long time. The Lobo Verde was spot on and I was super impressed. The bartender (a person with sugar skull makeup and long dark hair) was also very polite to us. Unfortunately, however, this is where any positive experience ended. We were sat just before another two groups of two at the bar. We could see that it was busy, and we have both worked as waitstaff, so although we had been sat for around 10 minutes without anyone speaking to us we waited as the bartenders seemed busy and it didn't seem appropriate to order from them. The two other couples near us, however, very rudely waved and raised their voices at one of the bar staff (a man with a black fringe vest and curly hair) to order their drinks and food. Although we had been sat first, this couple proceeded to have their drinks and first plate of food brought to them before any staff ever spoke to myself or my partner. When we finally asked the same bartender if it was okay to order through the bar, we were told we could but that our sever would be with us shortly. When we were finally served our food, it was also very disappointing. The seared tuna tostada was topped with tuna that was so cooked through I thought it was chicken at first, there was no pink left anywhere and it was not flaky or tender. The nacho plate was burnt and served in an incredibly hot dish, which we weren't told when it was placed in front of us, so my partner ended up singing their arm. The nachos were also topped with quite brown guacamole and it was all concentrated in one area, so the crisps were soggy in one place and blacked in others. The potatoes with jalapeño cheese sauce had really nice flavour, particularly the sauce, but there was not much of it on the dish. We ended up ordering another cocktail anyway, because the atmosphere was nice and the drinks were well made. We noticed that about 20 minutes after we had ordered that round from a waitress (whom I had to hail over despite being surrounded by empty plates and drinks glasses for some time) there was a table who appeared to be staff who were grabbing drinks for themselves off the bar and taking them to their own table although we had yet to receive ours. We also noticed that the place was clearing out, and no new tables had been sat for some time, despite it only being around 8 pm. The tables that had left were being left dirty, and despite us being left with no service nor the drinks we ordered that the staff who had been out of sight were beginning to reappear with makeup on. We then flagged down the host and asked after our drinks, which he said had never been put through the till. We asked if they were closing early and he said they were getting ready for the party that eve (which we had no idea about). Whilst I understand that the party was planned, we felt that we were a burden and had been left to the side rather than simply being told there was a party and that service would stop at a specific time. When we were brought the bill we were questioned as though we were trying to not pay for drinks that we had gotten, and told that there was nothing that could be done. I was also told 'I am not giving you any money back' before asking for anything from the host I asked to speak to outside about how we were made to feel. When you don't have much money, are on your first holiday in 3 years in the middle of a cost of living crisis, and have chosen to treat yourself to something for which you are then made to feel like you are not good enough to have it can spoil an entire experience. Overall we were made to feel unwelcome, as though we weren't good enough to be in the restaurant, and as though we were not wanted as customers due to how the staff perceived how we might be able to pay. For an almost €100 meal that we were so looking forward to from the beginning of our holiday, this was hugely hurtful. The experience had a tinge of classism, and the poor quality of the food could have been forgiven if it weren't for this and how it made us feel. ... read more

My first and last time dining at 777, the hostess and waitress were absolutely awful. As a tourist I heard amazing things about this place but it was the service and the overall attitude of the workers that left a bad taste in my mouth. Me and 2 of my guest were ignored the whole night by all 3 women on shift. On top of that our waitress got our order wrong multiple times and when we corrected her ( politely of course) we were given nothing but side eyes as if we were in the wrong. Not to mention she disappeared for the reminder of our meal so we couldn't get more food after the small portions. On top of the shitty service, when it came time for the bill there was a tip included!! They did that on purpose!! I'm a bartender myself and work in the restaurant business, if this is what they think is decent service, then the workers are not as bright as they think they are. I wish I could give them a -4/12 because a one star review is just too generous. read more

I'm from California and this is truly THE BEST Mexican food I have ever had!!! I forget the name, but order the pig head! Our group was blown away by the meal and staff! So friendly (everyone in Ireland is extremely friendly!) we even got to meet the cooks! I tell everyone I know traveling to Ireland that they must stop by! It's a really fun environment - great music and lighting! read more

777 - The best food!! Great decor and ambiance! - Mexican Near Me - Dublin, D

Walked in at 5pm on a Thursday, place was dead, there were only 2 people at the bar. We asked to sit at the bar for a quick drink and an appetizer, the hostess made us sit in the corner of the bar next to the candelabra that was burning 5-7 candles and dripping wax. Horrible margaritas, horrible chips and dips (why put seeds in guacamole????) and the worst overall experience in Ireland as a whole......avoid at all costs if your accustomed to authentic margaritas or guacamole. read more

We got here for Taco Tuesday unintentionally: 2 tacos for 4Euro. We were really just looking to get a nice cocktail but the offer was too good to pass up. The tacos were absolutely fab! Fesh and super tasty. Cocktails were nice and strong. Service was friendly and attentive yet somehow I can't quite give 4 stars. The reason for that is the noise level. The music, although good, was way too loud and therefore conversation wasn't really on the cards. We left after one drink. Pity! read more

I ate a pig snout and I liked it. This is one that's been on the list for AGES, but mediocre reviews from a few people had put me off. Now that I've been, I can see no room for mediocracy in a review for 777. They were top drawer all the way as far as I'm concerned. - Staff were attentive, friendly and the right side of casual - The food was really, really excellent. The ceviche was the star of the show, as were the bife taquitos. The pig's head is definitely a novelty. It was nice, and certainly fun, though a bit too fatty for me. The sauces that accompanied it were lovely, and the tortillas were plentiful. (Eat the snout, trust me! Just remember that it's not for the faint hearted!!) - The decor is really funky, and I love being able to eat at a nice bar area (though this wouldn't suit everyone) Why not five stars? A few minor gripes like the menu being a bit over-complicated, and the bar stools being stuck to the ground, so if you're seated in front of the door, there's not much you can do to be moved from the draft. But they are really really minor issues and hardly worth mentioning, considering the stellar standard of the rest. read more

WARNING : The margaritas are VERY strong! I had a wonderful meal here last night! It was my first visit, but defiantly won't be my last! The atmosphere is verrrry chill and laid back, which is nice! The staff are awesome and the interior is pretty sweet too! The music is way too loud though, but If you can get over that, everything else is on point! Instead of getting a main, I went for a couple of starters, so it ended up like Mexican tapas. Can I remember the names of the dishes I had? Hell no. The menu is kind of complicated, but they mainly consisted of chargrilled beef, mini tacos and I'm pretty sure there was some raw tuna steak thrown into the mix as well! Oh, and nachos with home made guacamole. Seriously impressive guac! As for the drinks, if you enjoy a cheeky cocktail as much as I do, then this spot is a must. The frozen margaritas (2 for 12 on Mondays) are to DIE FOR! Very strong, but to die for! Highly recommend If your looking for something a little bit different! read more

777 - Nachos and killer guac - Mexican Near Me - Dublin, D

I can hand you a number of reasons to try your luck at 777, but a few of the odds are stacked against it: 1. When you name your restaurant 777, you've got to ask yourself ONE question: Do I feel lucky? 2. Brought a friend from Texas and he liked the Margaritas so much that he had TWO. The drinks menu was diverse and delighted most of the party. Unfortunately, the cocktails aren't cheap and the cuisine is just TOO expensive. 3. How do you pronounce the name of this THREE digit restaurant anyway? Triple-seven? Treble-seven? Or, Siete-siete-siete? 4. (as in) FOR Mexican food, this place is neither cheap nor authentic, but it is delicious and creative (pepitas on the guacamole). The starter Cangrejo crab tostadas and pork main (Costillas) that I tried were muey bueno and everyone else seemed to enjoy their orders as well. I enjoyed the sweetness of the guava, and the ribs were delicioso - even if they did not live up to their billing as "spicy". The service is similarly dichotomous - friendly and often checking at our table, but disorganized with the orders and not as officious at serving our friends in the booth next to us. 5. Is about all the people that can squeeze in at a table/booth, so it's not a great place for groups... 6. ...but they require a minimum of SIX to make a reservation. Huh? 7. The noise level is impossibly loud - in contrast to the monochrome mariachi décor, which is as cool and hip as a Robert Rodriguez film. No fiesta colors here - except in the food and on the tattooed staff and clientele.... If you're looking for a quiet group dinner with cheap Mexican food, 777 does not have your number, but it is one sexy bar. And, 777 may be your lucky number if you're going for alcohol, appetizers, and ambience. read more

I'd been here once before for a marg on a night out. Anyway, I decided to pop in for the 7.77 Sunday special. So happy I did! The cocktail of the day was a delightfully sweet yet sour strawberry and vodka concoction. The shrimp tacos were gorgeous. The pork tacos even better. The chilaquiles were not the best but they were edible, I'm just fussy about my chilaquiles (better ones at Azteca). Service was very good. The biggest drawback was how bloody loud it was! Way way wayyyyy too loud! read more

This has quickly become one of my top favorites in Dublin. The staff takes great care to provide the best service possible. This restaurant is difficult to get into as it's very popular and they don't take reservations, unless you need a table for a large group. Put your name in and grab a drink down the street. They will call you when you're about to be seated. The food is fantastic. With a tapas style menu, you can sample several items and share them all. The streak and chicken are my favs and rival anyone in town! read more

I've been threatening to go to 777 for a long time and I finally went on one of their 777 Sundays. The deal on a Sunday is that there's a special menu with tapas for €7.77 each. It's like a taster for the full menu and it's a great way to get people in! We spotted their tweet about it and decided to head over! So the outside is extremely drab, but it's all an illusion and it really works. You do not expect this little oasis to be inside. The interior reminds me of being in sunnier climates, but remaining intimate. We sat up at the bar and had a look at the menu. Nothing is marked. 90% of their menu is gluten free or can be adapted - I checked several times with lots of people and the 777 twitter account, but the waitress had to check with the kitchen what was what. This is a huge pet hate of mine. Please mark the menus. PLEASE! Otherwise, you end up like me and avoid some places because there are no markings, and, when you venture in, have the staff have to go to the kitchen to check. It's not a confidence booster at all. In fact, it would turn the majority of coeliacs off the establishment straight away. On another pet peeve note, the waitress did actually confirm with my other half that I was a "real" coeliac when I was in the bathroom. I was a bit peeved when I heard, but I understand they get a lot of fad dieters in. Anyway, the waitress came back and listed everything we could have. We had to read the descriptions as she did so and, honestly, she did it so fast that neither of us could remember the first dish (again, this always happens when you don't mark the damn menu!), and decided to order anything gluten free, which was six tapas. She looked at us like we were a bit crazy, and suggested to choose four... so she listed them again to us and we chose four and the cocktail that was on special. (Again marking the menus would make it clearer!) The food arrived pretty quick. It was freaking awesome! We had taco campeon, el gringo, huevos rancheros, and chilli con carne. We had to ask for more of the corn chips for the chilli because they got all mushed in the bottom of the bowl. The 777 Sunday menu changes every Sunday so the pictures above may not be available on a particular Sunday, but it was all scrumptious. I would most definitely be trying more the next time! We devoured the food on the plate. It was all so flavour packed and delicious. We were seriously hungry monkeys! I was so so stuffed leaving. I even had a food baby that I was thinking of naming with the 777 Twitter account! (They're also on Facebook.) I will definitely be back for more! Small observation: You have to go through the kitchen when you go to the bathroom, and you can hear all the conversations that the staff are having. Two in particular were quite disgruntled about being there! It didn't affect the food though so it's all good! Also, ladies and gents they have somewhere to hang your bag/coat/hat while you eat up at the bar! Little hooks are the best thing ever to keep everything within reach.. including the camera for awesome food photos! I'm giving it 3 stars out of five, just because of the logistics and my peeves about the menu markings. Took forever to order because of it. The food was awesome. www.dublinglutenfree.ie read more

777 - finally got a taste of the ongoing hype. Yes, it's a jewel box of colors when you walk in and the eats are delicious. But the price tag is hefty my friends. Nine euro for chips and guacamole is up there even if the guac is amazing (and I make my own so that says a lot!) It's a gourmet take on Mexican eats and they do it well. I'd say the only item I'd not revisit are the fried plantains which arrived smothered in cheese and sour cream - come on 777 you can do better than that! The margies were wonderful - yet smallish for 12 euro a gulp! They encourage you to order three small plates each but you can get away with two each, including chips, unless you're mighty hungry. I'd return on one of their promoted discount days (777 Sundays / Margarita Mondays / Taco Tuesdays) or if I'm not famished. We walked out spending over 100 euro on four small plates, chips/guac, and two margaritas. Like I said, that's up there for Mexican food, even here; I was in 777th Heaven until we got the bill... It was a great night nonetheless - plus it was Cinco de Mayo even if the staff was clueless about the American/Mexican 'Holiday' ... but, hey, we're not in America, nor are we in Mexico compadres, so let's take what we can get! I'll take it 777! read more

When a work colleague visiting from the UK asked me where I'd recommend for Mexican in Dublin 777 instantly sprang to mind. I'd been twice before for their great tapas-style Sunday menu (where everything is €7.77) but last night was my first time trying their dinner. The place fills up basically every night so we took two seats at the bar. We decided to get a selection of small plates, 5 in total between two of us with 2 sides. When asked if our order size was okay the waiter used the word "substantial" - he wasn't wrong! The food arrived very quickly and highlights included the amazing guacamole accompanying our tortilla chips as well as the chicken tostados which we were both tempted by and went down very well. If you order one thing make sure to get a side of elotes, which are corn on the cob cooked in spices and cheese. Sounds simple but they are delicious. Also have to give a mention to the great margaritas. Overall a lovely meal and good value as we benefited from the Tuesday special offer of plates of 2 tacos for €4! read more

777 - Selection of small plates and sides from the dinner menu - Mexican Near Me - Dublin, D

I've only ever been for the 777 brunch, but I haven't been disappointed. The food is all really tasty and the general service is good. Some of the dishes might be a little pricey otherwise, (although the portions may be bigger, I don't know) but for brunch, especially sharing some dishes, it's great. It's probably best for two people/a small group - we were at the bar and a conversation between more then two people would be impossible, most of the tables aren't that large, and they didn't seem to be much room to move them around to accommodate larger groups. One thing though - the menus are photocopied from a hand-written original, and some of the dishes are really hard to read. My first time, I had to ask the waiter to explain several of them, which sucked and meant it took way longer to order. read more

777 - Peach and Raspberry Daquiris! - Mexican Near Me - Dublin, D

TEQUILA One of my favourite places to get a margarita in Dublin. Limey, sour, bitter perfection. Absolutely potent all the same one is nearly enough would knock you for six. The sorbets are sexual try them all. Star lost because of.... Rude head of house on the day. He made myself and my friend feel like an major inconvenience in an empty restaurant by seating us at the waiting area at the back of the bar that had a wooden ledge just wide enough to place our drinks on. Would have stayed for more if he hadn't made us feel like such a burden. Requested to sit at the bar with the promise that we would move if they got at all busy. Still it seemed that we were asking him to climb Croagh Patrick and back again! We were seated close to the door as in drink up quick and get out. This was followed by a beaming have a lovely evening which came across as uber fake. Somebody please inform this man of how he is coming across and that he is not adding to the cool factor. Enjoyment of tequila tainted unfortunately. read more

777 - Classic Margarita, Wall of Tequila - Mexican Near Me - Dublin, D

I'm a little torn about this place. My issues are with the slow service, the small portion sizes and some of the food isn't very Mexican. Positives for me include the cocktails, the €7.77 Sunday brunch deals and the atmosphere. The first time I went for brunch with a friend and we sat at the bar beside the candelabra which has a Do Not Touch sign. My impulse control while hungover is low so I have to admit this distressed me slightly. The service was friendly but a little slow, I was ravenous and in serious need of water to quench my hangover, so everything seemed to take forever. The food was tasty but the portions a little small, luckily we got nachos to share as well as a dish each. The second time I went with a group of five. We were too early for brunch, they only open at 2pm on Sundays so we got some prebrunch across the street at Bewleys, a delicious coffee and a pastry. Our earliness meant we were first in the door and had our choice of table. We were informed that they do seatings every 2 hours so we'd have to vacate the table at 4, this seemed fair. The service was again slow but this didn't mind me as much this time as I'd already had prebrunch, we were a larger group and I had a delicious cocktail in front of me. I got the same thing both times, pork butt and home fries topped with a fried egg. I can highly recommend it. read more

777 - Margaritas make me happy! - Mexican Near Me - Dublin, D

I've been wanting to come here for ages but it's always busy! So we caught a break at 6pm on a Thursday. The house margaritas are so nice, I'd definitely recommend. We had 'totopos': tortilla chips and a to-die-for guacamole. We both loved the 'bife' taquitos (sirloin steak) and chorizo taquitos (it is a spicy housemade chorizo). We also got the 'tinga' tostadas, were ok but little tricky to eat, I would always choose the taquitos over them next time. The 'papas fritas' (fried potatos) were ok but I've had better, they just didn't taste freshly done. Overall, I would definitely come back, but it's pricey so I'll be coming back on a €7.77 sunday!!!:) read more

Great atmosphere, and the best margaritas in Dublin. We live around the corner and have become regulars at 777 for one reason :margaritas. I'm not sure what tequila they use but it is far superior to the battery acid that is put in to margaritas in most Dublin bars.. The food is very good,, especially the chorizo tacquitos and the ceviche. It is a little pricey but not as bad as some of the reviews suggest, somewhere around €17 for a main course, and there's always taco Tuesdays.. . It's a great starting point for a night out, the music, consisting of disco and house is brilliant and there's always a great atmosphere, be careful of the margaritas though as they are lethally strong, resulting in a few cases of the fear the following day.. read more

Coming from California with an appreciation for Mexican food, I was intrigued by this place.. The artistic pieces painted on the white tile walls were amazing. But speaking to the food: 'Mexican fusion' is how I'd best describe it -- pork sliders, and Cuban black beans and rice as a side don't fit into any Mexican restaurant in familiar with. The nachos were also good, but like most European attempts at nachos lack the good cheese. Nothing we ate had much of a kick. The use of lime seemed heavy, and while everything tasted fresh, there was a missing component I couldn't nail down. read more

Can't believe we hadn't heard of this place, easily the best Mexican we've had in Dublin. Margaritas are a must (obviously) but the food was incredible. Crab ensalada, chicken thighs and birria taquitos are fantastic. Service was top quality as well! We'll definitely be back! read more

I don't really get why this place has 3.5 stars.. I think it's the best of the group (SMS, Dillingers, etc.) It's a bit pricey but worth the splurge bc the food is creative and good and the drinks are stiff. If you're on a budget go on Mondays for 2x1 margaritas... or on Tuesday for taco Tuesday (4€ for 2 tacos) or for their Sunday brunch where all drinks and plates are 7.77€. But whenever you go, get the pigs head. It's the best thing on the menu. And even thought 'it's for 2' it will easily feed 3-4 especially if you have sides. read more

Come here for Taco Tuesday as its 2 tacos for 4 euro. You can't go wrong. The irish made Mexican style street tacos are awesome. The blackened fish and the chorizo tacos are delicious. The sashimi tostadas were excellent and they have good hot sauce here. Never got to try the drinks but this review comes from a Mexican who loves and knows my tacos. My wife and I will be back when we come back to Dublin. read more

I was looking forward to the CMYE that Annie L had organised for 777, Dublin's new and very hip Mexican Cantina (this is how it was described to me when I first heard about it). It doesn't look like much from the outside, a bit grim to be honest with the black paint and bevelled glass. But I was immediately impressed by the décor and buzz to the place the moment I stepped in. Even the tiled murals on the wall of a lustily embracing couple are so tacky they're cool. The toilets are unique because you have to walk past the open kitchen to get to them, which is novel. The washbasin is also novel and caught my attention. We started off with cocktails and I was keen to try the Pisco Frisco (Pisco, lemon juice, sugar syrup, egg white and bitters) because it looked extremely similar to a cocktail called a Pisco Sour that I've not had in about six years. It was nice, but alas it not an exact match on the Pisco Sours I've had in South America which were all egg white froth. For a starter I shared the Bistec (tartar marinated steak, citrus and horseradish mayo, coriander stems, onion, chile oil). I'd not had steak tartar before and liked it; it was very nice and tasty. For a main I had the Pollo Pollito (roasted organic chicken, smoked onions, white rice, and black beans). This was also tasty; the flavours of the beans, onion and rice all combined nicely with the chicken. We got another round of cocktails and I went for the Pirata Toxica (Anejo tequila, vanilla liqueur, lemon juice, agave nectar and scorched pineapple juice). It was nice, but the first sip doesn't give you that "woah" hit that I'd expect a cocktail to give me. Also there was a lot of ice in the glass which I am sure the cocktail was meant to have, but it was a small glass. Call me a lush, but for 12 EUR I would expect more alcohol for that price. The server we had was very nice and funny too, but we had to ask twice for water top ups and to request the cocktail menu to order more drinks. When the second round of cocktails arrived I had to clear the table of the empty glasses to make room, passing them to our server. The tables are small and when you have five people around one there is not enough room for the drinks, plates and elbows. One of the cocktails was then accidently spilled onto the head of one of our party when he was passing it to the table. Not a good idea to pass a drink over a diners head I think. Also, one main course arrived to our table while we were still eating our starters. Finally the price, the dinner menu is too expensive. 12 EUR for the Bistec, 22 EUR for the Pollo Pollito and 20 EUR for Cocida (braised beef short rib) is a bit mad in my opinion. The food is fine, but I do not think its worth the price 777 is charging. I think the cocktails were fine, but needed more oomph. Also the service needs to improve vastly if they want to charge this much. Will I be back? I doubt it, maybe if we are with someone else who really wants to try it. read more

Lovely restaurant. Not huge fan of mexican food but the food that i tried was really delicious and the guacamole was amazing! Staff was also very friendly - went there on my birthday and the staff sang happy birthday and offered me a desert. Recommend this restaurant read more

Ate here of a Sunday when prices for dishes are €7.77! I thought this was fantastic value until I was presented my dish! I felt a little cheated as I didn't realise it was going to be so small! The food was nothing to write home about in addition to it being quite a small serving. I ordered a wine too. On a Monday and Tuesday they have other offers e.g. Tacos x2 for 4euro or a drink special on a Monday. I wouldn't be in a hurry back. The music on in the background lends itself to a bar like feel. The music is quite loud when you're eating, without it being a bar. It's trying to be something it's not. Disappointing overall so giving this a 2star! Lost marks for food, atmosphere and value for money. read more

Pros: - the chorizo tacos are pretty bomb - the thing to get here is the pigs head which sounds unappealing but is actually delicious and filling - the margaritas are pricey but strong and flavorful Cons: - who the hell calls street tacos "tacquitos"? - who the hell puts those seeds in guacamole? - give us actual chips not the broken crumbs I will say overall the pros vastly outweigh the cons; you just have to know what to get. read more

A really fantastic place for innovative Mexican food and drinks. We had camarones (grilled shrimp), ceviche, and elotes (roast corn) and all were excellently prepared and flavored. The cocktails were really well done and notably stiff. The waitstaff and bartenders were efficient and very friendly. The atmosphere is crowded and loud, but not so much that you can't talk. I'm from the United States and have been to many, many Mexican restaurants and this was simply excellent. read more

Was here for a friends home coming, I've been a couple of time before and I seem to leave every time somewhat unsatisfied. I had the tuna ceviche. I like to think of myself as quite the ceviche connoisseur after spending time traveling in Peru and also in Mexico. I really liked the addition of the watermelon, it went really well with the tuna. I'm a sucker for the traditional lime and red onion Peruvian take on ceviche but I really enjoyed this. My fries were super tasty too. The cheesy corn looked amazing but the corn itself lacked flavour, I was hoping for sweet juicey corn but it was a bit bland and starchy. My michelada was delicious, nobody else at my table seemed to think so but I love mescal, it was smokey and refreshing! The food in the place is killer, the chefs deserve a slap on the back. The service sometimes can be a bit of a let down. It's a little over priced too. read more

My friends and I frequent this establishment, probably too often, espectially on Tuesdays for TACO TUESDAY! As yesterday was Tuesday, guess where we were?!? I love 777 for their delicious food and even better margaritas. Since the last time I was in they switched up the menu. Not only did they get ride of one of the best tacos on the menu, the portobello taco, they changed all of their recipes for their existing tacos. My favorites were the cod taco, steak taco and portobello. As I'm very familliar with these, I was extremely disappointed when they came to the table yesterday. They weren't as tasty, they were less flavorful and no where as appealing. Sometimes when one thing goes wrong, all goes wrong. To top it off, we ordered our margaritas and appitizer of guacamole and chips and less than a minute after our appitizer was dropped off at our table, our tacos were dropped off. I like being able to enjoy a drink over a starter and not feel rushed. Not only was our table packed full of food, you just don't know where to start from. I felt rushed and wasn't at ease. The old saying is don't fix it if it isn't broke and in the case of the tacos, don't go tweaking the recipe if it's perfect the way it is. Although they have amazing margaritas, at €10 a pop and the tacos not being so good anymore I'm not sure if it's worth it to go back! Sad. Very sad. read more

from the outside 777 is pretty non-descript. in fact I walked right buy it when looking for it and didn't even notice it till I was on the opposite side of the street looking back. inside however its a feast for the eyes with funky walls and ceilings decked out in what look like retro tiling and what I can only describe as raunchy, Mexican gang-type art of tattoo lovers entwined and souped-up 50's cars. and there are dozens of different bottles of tequila lit up around the restaurant, which just highlight the extensive range of tequila based cocktails they serve. it is a bit of a tight squeeze in here with a few small booths and a bar to sit at. our group had 10 people with five at each booth. this was too many as I couldn't even get my elbows up to cut my meat! it would defiantly be more comfortable with three in a booth, one on each side and one at the end (two on each side, four in total would be a max). the toilets are pretty cool but its a bit odd that you have to walk right though the kitchen and pass people food being prepared to get to and from them. this just didn't seem hygienic to me! at first the staff seemed a bit off to be honest, probably stressed as it was very busy. it took our server time to warm up to us. she was stern faced and stressed at first but soon lightened up, smiling and joking with us. there was confusion and stress with the other servers too, forgetting orders, mixing up tables and getting flustered by a simple request for water. the food and drink was a bit expensive with main courses averaging €24 each and cocktails averaging €13 each. but in saying that the food was delicious. I had organic roasted chicken with onion, rice and beans and it was all perfect. I couldn't find a flaw with the taste, presentation or portion size. I also tasted the beef ribs and would say the same of that. I know most of what I said was negative but overall I had a really great night here. once the staff loosened up and we all got our food it was brilliant. I will defiantly go again, bring friends and recommend it to others. id also be happy to bring my Mexican friends here which is more then I can say for other Mexican restaurants in Dublin. read more

777 - Tequila! - Mexican Near Me - Dublin, D

Good points. Vibrant place with okay decor. Bad points. Staff are untrained rude and can't even get simple order taking correct. Food is only okay, and is expensive for a Mexican restaurant. Definitely would not go back unless I was with a group of people that really wanted to go. read more

À quick trip to Dublin an some locals took me here as I'm an avid Mexican food fanatic. Rule #1: judge a place by its guacamole. PASS. Rule #2: judge a place by its spicy drink offerings. PASS although they or sweet cherry stuff on top which could be left off. Rule #3: judge a place by the carnitas tacos. Delicious. Judgment: I would definetely go here again! read more
