We went to Harbor Master for my husband's birthday. This restaurant was a nice surprise in that it…read morehad much seating than what we thought. We happen to be in Dublin the weekend of a big MMA fight so the bar area was loud but they seated us in a back seating area and it was less noisy. Ryan was our server. He was very good and extremely friendly. Although, they were busy, he took time to chat with us. The food and beverages were delicious. I had a limoncello spritzer cocktail and loved it! My husband had an old fashion. For an entree I chose the Pan Seared Atlantic Salmon. It was cooked perfectly. It was flaky, not dry at all. It practically melted in my mouth. It was served with fresh asparagus, potatoes and mushrooms topped with a beautifully done Bearnaise sauce. My husband chose the Slow Braised Lamb Shoulder and loved it. We both had red wine with dinner. After dinner we shared a plate of sticky coffee pudding with vanilla ice cream and finished our meal with a Bailey's Coffee for me and an Irish coffee for him. Overall, it was a wonderful evening! I recommend you try Harbour Master the next time are in Dublin.

Waiter said he would bring sauces with the food. Then another waiter dropping off food asked if we wanted ketchup & mayonnaise. It was super quiet as noon on Sunday. No real excuse. Table sitting next to use had to give their order a second time because waiter lost it...& couldn't remember what they ordered. They arrived before us and got their food as we were leaving. Choice of sauces with wings. I had spicy butter which tasted like franks wing sauce. Blue cheese randomly €1 extra. Only 1/2 stick of celery with wings. Highly recommend the goujons with rainbow slaw and chips & pepper sauce...

It was a nice day so we day outside. We ordered oysters, fries, and a sandwich with some Guinness. My oysters weren't bad (I had better ones on the west coast of Ireland) and the rest of the food was pretty standard. The restaurant itself is neat inside and our server was good. There is a large parking lot nearby if you are struggling to park. We would return here if visiting again!

McGills food was hearty and portioned well, Our party had the short ribs which were very salty, hamburger was very good so were the fries and children's chicken strips. The service on the other hand was not good. We had to ask for everything all the way through dinner. No one came to check on our table unless we called them over. No cutlery was brought to table until we asked. Food was already delivered and still no forks. 3 Tables around us were sat after us and got their food before us. They had same type of food we had. Soup was delivered with no spoon. We had to ask two different people until finally someone brought one. So for food I'd do 3 for service 2, Will I go back? Yes because the servers all though not attentive were kind and apologetic. That deserves a second chance. Will update next time I go!

Boy am I glad, as soon as we walked in we were greeted and seated. Service was quick and the food and drinks were delicious. I ordered the Irish Stew, my apologies about not providing a picture, it was so good I forgot to take one. The portion sizes are very large and very filling. My mother had the fish and chips - she was so surprised that she enjoyed everything on the plate, including the green peas. My sister had the Vegetable Curry Soup- delicious as well. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting, which was a relief after leaving the other place. 5 stars for the food, service, the layout and a clear indication where the toilets are. Oh and the kitchen closes at 10pm.

I enjoyed the cheese dish, chowder soup and the soda bread. If you're not a fan of smoked salmon, then this place has the right chowder soup for you. They also have a good variety of beer. I requested for a drink not on the menu and they were able accommodate my request. They made me a surprise non-alcoholic mixed juice drink and I believe it was part cranberry and something else. Overall, I had a positive experience and I suggest here as an option.

We were also told about the lunch special, a fish burger with fries. We ordered the fish and chips and the special fish burger. Our order came quickly and everything was very hot. The fish and chips had a large fish filet, tartar sauce, a small container of peas (not mushy peas as was expected) and a metal container of fries. The container was very hot and helped keep the fries crispy. The fries were unique in that the shape had a celery shape with a valley to keep the ketchup in place or as I was told by the server mayonnaise for her. The fish was well fried and very hot. The fish burger was unique in that from what I could tell it was flaked or mashed fish filets then surrounded by a flat filet to keep its shape. It was served on a soft bun with lettuce, tomato, and red onion. The 'burger' was very large and thick that it almost made it hard to eat, but I managed! The batter was very thin, light and crispy. Again the fries were super hot and crunchy and there was a small container of tartar sauce. Both meals were good but lacked seasoning. Not sure they would be ordered again. The menu is small but would have enough for most appetites. They do offer an all day Gorgonzola and bread appetizer which, if we were going to spend time drinking, I would have ordered. Atmosphere was very loud with plenty of bar noise (dishes, silverware, and glassware being knocked about) which sometimes made it difficult to hold a conversation. Seating was a combination of booth, tables, and chairs. This is a large establishment with another bar area to the rear, labeled Molly's Room (Malone perhaps?). All in all an ok visit not sure we'll pop back in on our next trip.

The service was friendly but nowhere to be found for most of the meal..totally acceptable as it was a full house. Ordered the lamb stew which came with one cube of carrot, two and a half bites of potato, maaaaybe 2 oz. of meat if we're being generous and a normal serving of mashed potatoes. The photo included is before I took a bite. It was a shallow dish-what you see is what was served-nothing hidden below the thin, runny gravy, there was no side or bread or anything not pictured either. The flavor was good but there was nothing to it-I left and went elsewhere for another dinner because I was still very hungry. On a positive note the burger at the table next to me looked good.
