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.

Service team remembers me and are very friendly. Everything they have, from appetizers, to pastas, to steak, to dessert! They are all fresh, high quality items and meals. This place gets packed everyday for dinner, so try to call or come early to book in advance if you are coming for dinner. I'm addicted to this place!! Like I said; I tried other places but this one tops them all.

The great thing about this place is that they're open late and they make the food pretty quickly…read more We ordered the pasta funghi which was very creamy and the pasta was cooked perfectly! Could use more seasoning, I added 1 packet of salt and pepper and it definitely took it up a notch. We also got the Boston BBQ pizza. Have no idea what any part of the pizza had to do with Boston - but besides the point. There was a decent amount of toppings, however, they must come from a can and sit in water because the crust of the pizza was soggy, especially towards the middle where the majority of the toppings were. If I was in the area again, I'd definitely try other items if looking for a late/later night meal.

You can't go wrong with this place, everything my friend and I ordered was good. What attracted us…read morewas the "early bird" special they had, which essentially was just if you ordered a starter, entree, and glass of wine anyways...but we saw deal and were fooled. It ended up being about 19 euros. Anyways, everything was timely and delicious, with the white wine option being a little bitter and not the best, but the food really hitting the spot. Our server was very nice and accommodating. On a Saturday night, it wasn't very busy and that was good if you were looking for a more intimate place to talk and catch up. I would definitely come here again! Try the carbonara and the Italian wedding soup, it's to die for.

Yes This surprising shop serves decent enough Italian food served at reasonable prices.

Located right across Busaras (the central bus station), the place is a hidden spot and also very central. They have a set menu with pasta and pizza for 10, sides for about 3 and desserts for 6 euro. Wonderful roof decor with romantic atmosphere. For starters, I would suggest the goat's cheese and sun dried tomato tartlet and for the main, the 4 cheese pizza. The cheese is of good quality and the size is fair. The fish and chips is not so big and a bit expensive for 12.50 if compared to other places in town.

Our burratta appetizer was enough for four. We had one more appetizer and three desserts. One friend ordered primi and a secundi plate. He was stuffed and couldn't eat dessert.

Ok, the food here was superb. I'm going to start there. Because it's true, and that's important…read more The service was great, too! Normally, this would be a five star review. "But why, Brian, is it not," you ask? Many of you may know that my wife uses a wheelchair, so that is usually first on my mind when visiting any establishment. We check to see if it says its accessible. And Wood Fire said it was! Yay! Except, well, sort of yes, sort of no. We were able to get in the door. The first door, to the outside covered seating area. No chance of getting in the second door into the building proper, because that had stairs. But that was ok. It was a nice night out and we were happy to sit in the covered outside area. But is a place really accessible if the toilets are not? Not only would the stairs have been an issue, but there's no way her wheelchair could have navigated through the restaurant to the back, and once there, forget it. Way too small and narrow for a chair to get in there. So yeah, great food, nice people, we had a good time. But I'm not sure "accessible" is accurate.

After landing in Dublin from the States at 5 AM and walking 13 miles around the city in a desperate…read moreattempt to stay awake until bedtime GMT, ordering take out pizza to have in our hotel room seemed liked the perfect solution. And it was. Did a little research and found this gem a block and a half from our hotel. Called an ordered a 4 frommagi "mini calzone" and was told they didn't have that on the menu any longer, so I asked why they did have for calzones and he said "we have one with mozzarella, Parmesan, scarmorza and salami". I said "could I order that but without the salami" and so it was done- tre frommagi. I couldn't decide between the Bianca and the "Lucky Tom" but on the owner's suggestion, went with the Bianca, a pizza with an olive oil base, topped with tomato, mozzarella di buffalo, Parma ham, shaved park and rocket (a.k.a. Arugula). When I went to pick them up 10 minutes later, they were ready and had a lovely char from the wood fired oven. The "mini" calzone would've been more than enough for the two of us, and I wished I had ordered just that since we do not have a refrigerator in our room and have to get creative with any leftovers. Anyway both hit the spot, but there was so much cheese in the calzone o ended up having it on the crust of my pizza and there was too much rocket on the pizza, but overall a win and a nice finish to the evening before we drifted off to sleep.

The food is just as nice here, ok maybe not as nice, but it's a nice change of pace. They've got quite a few tables to sit in the shop if you want to gobble down all your food before it gets hold. Otherwise take it away and enjoy it at home!

The Fusciardis have been serving fish n' chips to Dubliners for close to 80 years now. They've no…read moredoubt seen a lot of changes in those times. Italian/Irish fish & chips have gone from being an everyday staple to dietary minefield in that time. I've found that my tolerance for a bag of chips has become almost entirely dependent on a state of drunkeness. Unless I have a pint or two onboard, I can't eat this stuff. That said, Fusciardis isn't bad, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything other than late-night fuel.

We have had good food all week, and were wondering if we should try an Italian restaurant in Ireland. Well, this place which serves Sardinian food, is a gem. There are no other restaurants I near the hotel, but, of course, the hotel does have a restaurant. We ate there last night, but our server literally disappeared and left us without checking out and I gen the staff could not find him. We wanted to eat somewhere else, and the food was fantastic. Yummy, hearty, flavorful, and as the menu said, with a Sardinian twist. We have never tried Sardinian food and we were not disappointed. Hubby had lasagna, and the sauce was definitely a gravy. I had the bus atino which was creamy without being moist and swimming in a sauce. The staff was super friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant.

It is a cozy little restaurant and very small. No more than 10 tables inside probably.
