I regret not complimenting his great black beard lol. The food was some of the best Italian food we have had anywhere, it was simple in its execution but well thought out and developed. The visuals were very nice. In comparison to the hustle and bustle outside, I felt like we had just walked into someones family dining room. Much darker, quieter, and inviting. We will certainly return upon returning to Dublin.

Having visited for lunch one day with a pal from out of town, en route to the zoo, we stopped off…read moreon the main Castleknock Road to this spot. Formally Trentinos, this restaurant seems to be buzzing all of the time. It's not too badly priced, maybe a little dearer than the norm but the food, Italian and tasty as hell, you'd let it slide. They have lovely friendly staff who will entice you to endulge more than you should, great coffee and sizeable portions of food. Tasty Italian food from pasta to pizza, but could vary thr menu from season to season I think. Suitable for large groups or a quick spot of lunch for two, coffee is great and so is their wine!!!!

Also had fish and chips for lunch. It came with smashed peas! It was great. It came out really hot. Fish and chips were crispy and good. The service was good but a little slow. I think it was still early and there were enough people working at that time. But the server was very sweet and friendly.

Yes! La Dolce Vita!…read more Cozy and welcoming family owned restaurant. We visited 3 times during our stay in Dublin. That's how much we loved it. The presentation of the food is spectacular. Even something simple like garlic bread was beautifully displayed. The food in itself is incredibly tasty. We only came here once for lunch. They offer a great lunch special for €10.95. It includes a 2 course meal. I love the cheesy garlic bread. I enjoyed everything I tried, but I think the penne carbonara was my favorite. It was so creamy. I wanted to drink the sauce. Their Caesar salad is delightful, the homemade dressing is divine. Desserts are scrumptious and purely decadent The Nutella brownie is a must have. The restaurant is small. When it's busy it can feel cramped. It's perfect any social situation like a romantic date, a business meeting or a big family gathering. 5 stars. Beautiful food, cordial service, and pleasant ambiance.

This place shocked me!…read more I found San Lorenzo's via Yelp, so thank you Yelpers! It is one of the few places in Dublin that takes American Express cards. So you can leave home without it when you come here When we asked if they had a table they said only if you are up from the table in an hour. We were hungry so we agreed The environment is dark and tasteful and lively The wine list is not good, but the food and the staff make up for everything The avocado and caprese salad was awesome The shrimp in wine sauce was off the charts delicious The chicken breast wrapped in prosciutto was delicious and the polenta and creamed corn were spectacular The monk fish wrapped in crispy pancetta on a bed of pesto basil was amazing To top it off we had the Nutella cheesecake with Carmel sauce and gelato with biscotti crumbs on top- this was surreal!!! All this and we were done with all the food, a bottle of wine and cappuccinos in an hour and never felt rushed If you are in the mood for Italian food, come to San Lorenzo's
