My friends, it's been a while since I've criticised a humble food seller.. I have been away and…read moreback again, distracted by a fair wench that I have now made my wife..Anyways, I'm back to excersise my creative wordology in 2025 and hopefully continue on with the book I'm writing about my misadventures. SO, Without further adue, let's lay into armPitts Brother's BBQ... It was a Saturday morning when uncle Phil arrived at my door, 6am as agreed, the gentlemen are back in Ireland so we thought we'd celebrate with a full day drug fueled pig out. No, I'm not talking about the kind you might arrange with the chubster mauling her lipstick stained fish bowl glass in Whelans at the end of an evening of debauchery.. I'm a married man now, Sir.. No, we were on a mission to consume as much smoked dead animal, coffee, pints, and antibiotics as we could before his dad came to collect him. FOR HE IS A MAN OF LIMERICK, and a kind soul - rare to find in those westerly parts. My spouse and sprog were also dressed for social warfare determined to keep up with the appetite of the warlords recently returned to the Fatherland.. Seated in the middle of the hall, a pedestal raised for the show ahead. My woman spotted her kin working the rounds and bent up to query her nationality. A match! A southerly piriguete ready to do our bidding and translate everything off the menu - CORN ON THE COBS for everyone in the audience. Do I have your attention?! Do I still have your attention? .. my meat is getting cold resting on the table while the kitchen gremlins in the back fetch water for the table next to us.. Eventually, it arrives, and I'm not surprised.. It's exactly what I ordered.. The same brisket that keeps popping up on my youtube feed every time I look for bbq recipes.. yeah, OK, it's grand, it melts in my face.. job done. I'll take the bloating diarrhoea to go, please, and a can of Fantana for the babee.. Hold up, there's 1 plate not touched.. Uncle Phil's better half. Sitting there with half a dead cow in front of her that's so dry, I wouldn't fuck with it myself without a ramicken of boner marrow to lube up that bitch. Send it back! Feed it to the animals! I'm not paying! My wife's new friend drags it's off by the ankle to have a whine and a moan about it with the chefs and pop! Another one comes sliding across the table. I look back, and cheeky Little Miss Fortaleza has already left, not even a goodbye.. We're all done at this stage too so Uncle Phil's wife has a choice, walk around town with a dead animal in her pocket all evening til munch time, or eat it in front of us while we counting down the minutes before Phil's dads gotta come and pick him up.. tick tick tick.. decision time.. "Table service of 10% is included with groups of 4+.." Oh, that's reallll clever.. Raaeeell bad man.. what if we're not satisfied? Well my friends.. this is where yelp comes in.. the customer is king in the world.. You! small businesses.. You will never be able to silence the disgruntled pedestrians.. I hearby call upon all mammals of Dublin City and visiting beasts of Limerick, do not accept the surcharge! Also, ask for water when you walk in, all the free sauces and all the kings men - I'm gonna shit up the walls in your restroom again.. and fill my bags with complimentary toilet paper! Maybe even a lucozade bottle of soap while I'm there.. Today, a valuable lesson was learned.. Small businesses are ready for you when you walk in the door, like lambs walking into a slaughterhouse.. how didn't we see it coming.. we all know the landlords have em all by the balls, so they gotta pass it on to us and squeeze you, we're at the bottom of a pile of sweaty men, and when it's lunch time, it's crunch time.. but now.. I'm pissing upstream.. Next stop is Bah33 for my wife's birthday.. all you can eat.. mother fcukers.. I'm coming for you.. I'm gonna eat the day before to stretch my stomach, then eat nothing on the day, just hit the park beforehand for a run and a doobskin. Is there a limit on how much tap water they'll allow you? Cos I'm filling up a 5L.. custom briefs to keep tight you take aways around your saucey ghoulies.. the revolution is here and will be televised! The revolution starts neigh! Speak out and cream out! I won't stop until all small businesses are shut and we're all cooking Nigella and ordering bulk meat on the Internet! Why eat out for 30 bills when you can spend that on poteen and kill your own venison in Phoenix Park! I'm telling ye, there's some quare things in Dublin- Between Howth and Crumlin, down in ringsend there's a 3 legged cat.

We purchased the platter which included Ribs, Brisket, Pulled Pork and Wings. Came with two sides, so I had to try the Mac n' Cheese and Baked Beans and it also included fresh dinner rolls. Ribs - smokey and tender. I would love to go back during the lunch rush when they come out fresh, but since we were there around 20:00, they had been sitting for a while. But even though they had been sitting, they were still amazing. They were glazed perfectly, and the tender, juicy meat was amazing. Some would say "fall of the bone" are the best, but that just means they are overcooked. These ribs had just the right amount of tenderness. So amazing. Brisket - also amazing. Had a perfect smoke ring, and was tender and juicy. The slices had the perfect pull, and were so deliscious. Pulled Pork - tender, juicy and succulent. Not mushy as sometimes can happen if it sits too long. This pork was simply amazing. Smokey, moist and perfect. I added some of the BBQ sauce, and it was simply deliscious. Chicken wings - cooked to perfection. Also asked for them to be dry so that we could try the different sauces. So tender and juicy. Mac n' Cheese - sometimes places will have a big pan and will just scoop it out onto the plate. Not here at Smonin' Bones. They make it fressh and put it into a dish, add some extra cheese on top and then broil it. So yummy. I could have eaten a lot more of it. Baked Beans - probably my least favorite of the night. The beans were a little under-done, so they had a little bit of a crunch. But the flavor was good. Keep working on that. Overall a wonderful, delightful surprise.

But this place advertised Texas style BBQ so I decided to give it a try. The service was good, friendly, and fast. The interior was quant, simple but gave off vibes of being a BBQ spot. As far as fresh, grilled food goes, I would give this place a 3/5. But as far as BBQ goes, this ain't it chief. We tried the beef ribs, pulls pork, quarter chicken, and sides of coleslaw and Mac and cheese. Hands down the best thing was the Mac and cheese. They say the test of BBQ meat is that you shouldn't need extra sauce on top; I'll just say I couldn't get enough sauce.

Similar to American BBQ but different…read more I was greeted quickly and Even though they had a reservation for a large party (the whole main dinning area) food came out quickly and was fresh. I ordered a mixed meat box and unfortunately they were out of several items. Common in a BBQ place later in the day and especially with a large party. The pork was kind of greasy and had a liquidy consistency which was odd. Flavor was ok. The brisket really excelled cooked perfectly!! Sides were pretty good and as expected. I like the the bbq sauce which was unique, possibly horseradish mixed in. Beer list was pretty good. I would definitely recommend and suggest come earlier when menu is all available

While overall this hit the spot for my need for Korean food in a foreign country for myself, I felt the combo of the high prices and non-kbbq entrees that seemed catered towards individuals was slightly off putting.

Once my food was dropped off, no server came back, not even to give me my bill. Had a server stopped by it would have been clear that something was wrong as I had a pile of potatoes on my tray. I had to hunt down a bus boy to ask for my bill after 20 minutes. Then he didn't know what to do, and everyone seemed confused that I was paying cash. Avoid this dump with terrible service.

I confess to not knowing much about Brazilian cuisine but as it was a concise menu in English, this wasn't an issue. I went for the picanha, which is a traditional Brazilian steak cut which was accompanied by chips and rice, picked onions and peppers and some sort of seasoning (salt, ground black pepper, something else probably) It was.......grand. The meat saved it mostly. Not the best cut but cooked as I had requested, medium rare. The sides........bland and ate out of hunger more than want. I wouldn't completely rule out a return visit but with a bit more research on my part next time!!

Ok, let's be honest here. This is your every day type of place (sure, I get, it's not everyday that…read moreyou're paying 8 Euro for a lunch. But don't take your girlfriend there with the intention to propose). Given that, it's a pretty good offer. They have their menu, but I usually go with the special of the day, which is different for each day of the week (also usually means you'll wait less for your order as well). Also offered is a Brazilian PF (ready-made dish, which just means you get your plate with several pre-picked choices - but isn't it like other place? Yes, a bit too much to explain in a review ;) ), which is more aimed at students. So, don't expect you'll get the feeling of being on a beach in Rio, rather the feel of an office lunch somewhere in a busy city in Brazil, and that's totally fine!

My ribs were like chewing gum. I had to throw them out. The fries were soggy in oil. I will never eat here again. And I do not recommend the food. There are so many nice places in town.

We were running out of time on our hunt to find them when I realized, 'I've got my trusty guidebook!!' And that's how we ended up here. It was 12 Euros for 6 oysters and a glass of wine. Since there were four of us, the lady was nice enough to give us 4 cups of wine (yes, plastic cups - it's a farmer's market, what do you expect!) They even threw in an extra oyster! SO FRESH! SO BIG! (cue that's-what-she-said joke). Compared to NYC oysters, these babies looked like they were on steroids! They also have this dipping sauce (had onions and was really vinegar-y, but good. But if you don't like the sour, you should just take the oyster straight.) Didn't eat anything else from other stands because we just had lunch. However, I believe they had shish kebabs, crepes, and bread. Oh and FYI - Sheridans Cheesemongers was there (saw this place on Anthony Bourdain when he went to Dublin so thought this might be worth mentioning). Definitely check out this farmer's market!
