Gourmet Grill Rathmines - A friendly place with tasty food and great prices to boot,…read more I was looking for an escape from the cold and rain when i saw the promise of a meal for 7 Euro and good value (like an honest politician) is a rare find these days! I would like to add here that i studied the menu with vigor and possibly a photographic memory but i didn't, i choose the first thing i saw which was a bacon burger with chips and a coke (not entirely true the first thing that caught my eye was the bubbly serving girl - but she wasn't on the menu anywhere) i took a seat and while there was a bit of a wait the food was delivered down to me. The freshly made burger was juicy & tender (the wait for the meal mentioned previously is due to the care taken in preparing and cooking the burger) and this is encased in soft light bun (made locally that morning in the pretzel bakery {i think its called} - in Portobello) and there is a secret sauce and onions and a rasher, which made the burger mouth wateringly good. The chips are proper potatoe cut and add to the value of the meal, with your standard fizzy beverages available. Now if the burger had been the usual flat pancake affair with with a few out of date leafy greens in a sesame seeded bun (typical in a lot of fast food joints these days) i would have just nodded to myself, as that is what value meal generally means (and i sure as hell wouldn't be writing this review), but the gourmet grill is so much more and on a busy street with Saba, Bombay pantry and Abrekababra as neighbors it will have to maintain its high standards if it wishes to stay around for the years to come. And no for clarification i do not work for the place, the manager or possibly the owner asked me at the end if i enjoyed my meal (which i thoroughly did), and it is from this brief chat that i learned about the fresh made burgers and buns. (the manager/owner actually recommends the chicken in the pitta bread meals over the burger meals) which i will have to try next time. If i have any regrets its not taking any pictures of the food or venue and not bringing home a menu/waitress to better explain the food/meals available (and they don't seem to have a website yet either) The rest is up to you to discover, enjoy.

Staff were extra friendly, and anxious to get any feed back, as I think they care!!!! I promised I'd give a review on Yelp so here it Is... ordered a burger, Cajun Pitta and an Oreo milk shake. Have to say the burger was real class, would have liked Cajun Pitta a bit more spicy( personal preference) Chips better than a real chippers.... great value on the milk shake 3.50.... I would recommend stopping in and trying as I certainly will again.. Well done to Gourmet Grill

More surprising was that it was pretty busy almost immediately on opening. So last night I decided to give it a shot. The area is pretty well served by takeaways, and has lots of chippers, but with the notable exception of Borza, they tend lack a certain lustre. So its a pretty bold move to open a takeaway in an area saturated with takeaways and only a few feet from one of them. So Hillbilly's is basically american style food - lots of fried chicken. They also seem to have pies, which I didn't order this time. There are a few high stools but this really is a takeaway. I went for chili chicken breast in a bun meal, which cost about 7 euro - so certainly comparable price with the other local takeaways. However when I got it home I was happily surprised to find that it was much better quality. Everything seemed fresher and even the bread was not your packet bun usual standard. I can see why it got so busy so fast. I just hope they keep it up.

I decided to take an early flight from Donegal to Dublin a day before I was due to fly back to the US and was staying with my loverly Yelp sister Edel N. who lived a street away from this place. We ran out and did some last minute essential provisions shopping for me to take back to the US (Tay Bags, Bisto, OXO cubes) and on the way back to hers spied this place, open. Dinner!!! Standing at the counter of this regular chippie I commented that I haven't had a real Eyetalian/Dub fish and chips since I left Ireland when I was a pup, or was that when Methuselah was a pup. In any event, it was a long time ago. This place was SPOTLESS. Immaculately clean. And they have a vast menu with a little something of everything. Course, the eyes were bigger than the belly and I ended up with TWO smoked cod and chips and a battered sausage for good measure. I was sorely tempted to order a spice burger but my Ulsters (as the auld wans at home would say about indigestion) would have been giving me a hard time on the plane the next day. So I'll have to save that for the next trip. Well, the chips were delicious and so cleanly fried in fresh oil and fluffy, and the smoked cod was HUGE, hanging over the plate and also fresh and delicious. Like an eejit I underestimated and ordered way too much. The first bite of the battered sausage surprised me too cos I forgot that they don't cook them first before battering them, so its kinda like a boiled sausage, but then it was lovely. Well, standing there waiting for "the feed" I cracked me arse laughing at the woman who came in beside me and her and her fella asked for the "special". Hamburger and chips and a can for 5 Euro. Then she looks up at at the menu board and spies the Dublin Bay Prawns special and turns to her chap and says "here, would ya not go fancy with tha?". Ahh Dublin.

I'm biased in a way because this lovely establishment was my first 'chipper' ever. In my 3 years in…read moreIreland now this is still my favorite. I've been to a few more over the years, but somehow there is still something more special at this place. Is it that it's nestled in a cozy neighborhood out here in Clondalkin? Is it because the lads who work there take the time to know your name and ask about your family? Is it because everything is battered and fried with love? All of the above are more than dear! I like the donner kebab if I go for dinner, but after a proper session of drinking the night before chips smothered in vinegar and a battered sausage just can't be beat. If you're feeling properly healthy, try the fish and chips and don't be shy with the vinegar. I'm all about healthy eating and fine dining, but every now and again don't we all need a little chipper in our lives? :D Treat yourself to the best!!
