Decided to drop by because I haven't had any Korean food at all throughout my time in Ireland. It's tucked inside the asian grocery shop, but this place is delicious. 10/10 am coming back tomorrow. The prices are great and the portions are large. Quite authentic food and I really like their kimchi, just spicy enough and not too fresh or sour.

Spicy Portland bulgogi

I had heard a lot of good things about brothers Dosirak, and was excited to finally make it in here after a cineworld date. You will have to walk through the shop first to get to the 'restaurant' part. It's super casual, with about 5 tables and some questionable music blaring from the speakers. Foodwise you can choose between around 8 authentic korean dishes, which come with miso soup and a few sides (scrambled tofu, coleslaw, kimchi) and a teeny tiny taster of dessert. For 8 euro it's incredible value!! There was so much food, that neither of us could finish it all (and we came hungry!) The staff were so friendly and they just introduced a loyalty card , after 7 dishes you get the 8th one free. I have to go more often so, to fill up my card! It's great for a quick bite and exceptional good food.

Salmon Terriaki- some of the best I have ever tasted!
Elaine E.

Stumbled across this little gem on Capel street the other day and I have to say I'm delighted I took a punt on it. I was trying to sandwich in a quick dinner between work and dancing and needed it to be filling but not stodgy and walking past the super Asian store I noticed some people eating. When I checked it out there was a little restaurant built into the Asian supermarket! There are 3 or 4 things on the menu each day, all freshly prepared and I would expect seasonal. I had the salmon teriyaki and it was amazing. The salmon melted in my mouth with just a little crunch on the pan fried side and the sauce was light, a little sweet and perfectly salty. The side of brown rice and barley was perfect with it, and I normally avoid brown rice like the plague. I am drooling just remembering it. The seats were comfortable, the atmosphere welcoming, informal and surprisingly relaxing for the middle of a supermarket and I wish I could have stayed longer. Overall this might become a weekly haunt of mine.

Vegetable soup

A lot of friends have been raving about this little Korean restaurant located inside an Asian market in Capel Street that I decided to try it out with my other friends. I was quite packed when we got there but the staff made space to accommodate the 5 of us. The chef greeted us with his big hello. He said that there is only one item in their food and it changes every day though the price remains the same at €7.95. The chef said there would be a delay with our food since the rice was still cooking which we did not mind and I appreciated the fact that he let us know. He told us to help ourselves to their soup of the day which was vegetable soup. The meal comes with a main course and three side dishes. There were side dishes of salad, kimchi and lasagna. Our main meal was a steak burger with rice. There was also a tiny yet cute dessert served in a disposable shot glass. It was chocolate Guinness mouse. The food was fantastic. We were stuffed. They would definitely see me coming back again! Read my full review here: http://www.esjaeee.com/2016/05/brothers-dosirak-in-capel-st.html

I think I've found Dublin's happiest restaurant!! Brother's Dosirak is tucked away in the back of Super Asian Store on Capel Street. Despite passing by here every day I hadn't noticed it - Yelp pointed it out to me! (Thaaanks Yelp!) We wandered in today, a little unsure of how the ordering process works, etc. The chef pointed out a couple of seats for us and gave us a run through of the day's menu. There were three choices; Bibimbap, pork belly or chicken wings. We opted for the first two. You pay at the till -dinner is 7.95 & lunch is 6.95! Amazing! All the food is made right in front of you - which is a show in itself. The chef and the three other ladies working there are so friendly! Chatting away to everyone as the food is made. The food itself doesn't disappoint either. The bibimbap was delicious, so fresh & healthy (the good healthy, not the 'sad lettuce leaf' kinda healthy). The pork belly was served on a long wooden tray and came with rice, kimchi, courgette, salad & a teeny but very tasty dessert. Although Brother's Dosirak haven't been open long I definitely see it becoming a staple on Capel Street!

Bibimbap!
Tim L.

Korean food is definitely taking off in Dublin and Brother's Dosirak is a great little addition to it. Nestled behind Super Asia Foods, you'll be greeted VERY loudly in Korean upon entering the restaurant which can be overwhelming but you can't help but be tickled by their enthusiasm. The menu consists of the usual bibimbap and a special bento box every day. It was the Korean pork ribs on our day, with kimchi and egg roll sides with free miso soup. Everything was delicious but if I was to complain, everything was too tasty if it makes sense? I would have preferred a bit more balance in the flavours. At €7.95 for the main, it is very good value and I'll definitely return to try out the other specials. Just be sure to turn up before 8.30 pm to make their last orders as the whole place closes at 9!

This is my new favourite Korean restaurant in Dublin. It's a small place tucked in behind a shop on Capel Street and, while hard to find, is more then worth a stop. The food is all extremely well priced at a full main for around 8 euro but it's the service and taste that really sold me. I ordered Bulgogi, a favourite dish of mine that I've had in a few other Korean restaurants in Dublin and to my surprise it was the nicest going. The meal was nicely presented with the Bulgogi and rice in one dish, kimchi and sides in others. The whole serving comes with a small bite of cake on the side to finish off the meal. The staff were all very kind, welcoming us to the restaurant as we entered and ensuring everything was satisfactory as we eat and thanking us for eating as we left. The price, quality and homliness of Brother's Dosirak's has quickly made it one of my favourite spots in Dublin.

Samgyeopsal (pork belly) with rice, ssamjang (chilli and soybean sauce), tofu, kkakdugi (diced radish), salad, soup and a tiny tiramisu
Laura G.

This little restaurant tucked away in the chinese supermarket on Capel street offers a rotating menu with a different dosirak (lunchbox in korean, like bento) selection every day. The samgyeopsal (pork belly) is served with ssamjang (a thick chilli and soybean sauce - a quintessential korean flavour). The food is fresh, tasty, good value for money and served by a friendly staff who love joking and engaging in a bit of banter with the customers. If you want to know what food in Korea actually tastes like - this is the place to find out.

Brother's Dosirak is a very great place for a quick lunch! It is hidden behind an Asian food shop. It is affordable and the service is friendly. I ordered the bbq korean beef dosirak- beef, rice, ham, salad, & cole slaw. It was delicious and it was only 7.95 euro! Excellent price for the amount of food that you get. I had leftovers! Thank you.

Around Paddy's day, someone I follow posted pictures from Brother Dosirak and I saved the picture. I knew I had to try it, so we popped in on Saturday evening for a quick munch. Pleasantly surprised to see it tucked away inside an Asian shop on Capel St. The food was cheap! Two main courses and a drink for less than €20 and it was really GOOD! It's small, it's cosy, no pretence, nothing fancy just good inexpensive Korean food. Definitely going back.

Happy to find this special spot. Such a a nice change from all the pubs. An authentic Korean restaurant with typical dishes like bibimbap and seaweed soup. Very tasty and super friendly. ~

I ate here a while ago, but I recall that it was very good. There wasn't a lot of seating though. There was a vegetarian option.

I believe I should state this disclaimer first: Although I am Pakistani, I am by no means a fan of…read morePakistani/Indian food. Just wasn't my thing, especially growing up and eating it most of the time. HOWEVER, boy do I LOVE me some Spice Guru! I tried them randomly one night, just because I wanted to see how good they were since I had seen pretty decent reviews on other sites. Secondly, they have a great set meal price of 11.49, for a starter, main, naan or rice, and a can of soda. I usually order the seekk kebab hydrabadi, chicken or lamb tikka masala, a naan, and whatever drink is floating my boat that day. Food is good, and full of flavor, and with every set meal order, they give you free poppadom and chutney. Spice Guru not only started making me love Indian food again, but got me ordering from them basically one a week! I'm on a student's budget in Dublin, and if I go broke here, it won't be because of alcohol... it'll be because Spice Guru!

After all it was rated well by fellow reviewers too! The food turned out to be great! On time delivery with smile despite the confusing address we have. Good portion size. The set menu is a great deal. I so wanted to eat good biryani for a long time and glad I ordered it from here. Hubby's chicken tikka biryani was awesome; a bit better than my vegetarian one so I stole his :) All food was flavourful and made with less oil. Would love to try more! Only one downside - The vegetable tikka masala I ordered only had broccoli in it with a few green peas- no other veggies. Next time I will ask them to put more vegetables.

A short walk from the Trinity College Campus sits a triangular, brick and mortar (literally)…read moretriangular "NY Style (sandwich) Deli". With just a few small tables and chairs outside, the standing room only interior is a picture of economy. These were my first impressions as customers steadily streamed inside to place orders and then leave to wait for their sandwich or sit a bit. My eyes locked into the pastrami melt sandwich on the menu and I waited my turn, albeit a bit nervously, to place my order with one of the three gents who were slinging the sandwiches. All the ingredients in the deli case looked fresh, from the lettuce, meats, cheese, etc, to the types of bead on top of the case, like the focaccia. Each sandwich is made fresh, and once assembled, is pressed to warm the roll and melt the cheese. My pastrami melt arrived loaded with the meat, and all the ingredients enhanced by the deli mustard made for a great tasting sandwich. It's probably the best pastrami sandwich I've tasted in a long while. Every employee was patient and helpful, and I found this to be quite an effort since customers kept placing orders without much of a break. The Pig & Heifer is definitely worth a repeat visit.

Loved the vibes of this place and the wait staff, though incredibly busy, still made the time to make sure we had everything we needed as food was delivered to our table. We can honestly say we did not have one bad bite of food. To our surprise, the Spice Bag was the thing we thought was the least impressive of the bunch. Still very good, but everything else was so much better. Wish there was a little more chicken in it. The Pan Fried Dumplings were maybe some the best we ever had. Do not skip the Cucumber Salad, this dish is incredibly underrated. The Chicken Satay was very good, not sure if I would get it again. The Thai Basil Beef was a stunner! Huge flavor bomb! In fact, do not skip any beef dish they have. The Crispy Chili Chicken was the best part of a Spice Bag, without the fries. The Duck Wings had amazing flavor, wished they were served a bit hotter. Everything I am mentioning as a criticism is slight and minor FYI. If we ever come back to Dublin, we are coming straight here! Also, do not sleep on their cocktail menu! Amazing drinks!
