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.

While out my friend and I were hoping to grab a meal and while looking up places noticed this…read morerestaurant. We walked over and you can see it was busy and a small restaurant but they luckily had availability and got us a table quickly. Once there we were given break, oil, and vinegar as well as water to enjoy as we looked over our menu. The server recommended a great wine my friend never had and we ordered an appetizer and meal. For the appetizer we ordered: Calamari in crosta and it was honestly one of the best if not best calamari I've had in a long time. It was light, crispy and not oily. Also loved that sauce they paired with it! For the main meal I ordered: Tagliatelle ai frurti de maré e bisque di gamigri Rossi. It was delicious and my friend ordered Tagliatelle al Ragu di cervo Irlandese and she said it was incredible and savored every bite. We didn't order dessert, but would absolutely pop back over when in town. The price was extremely reasonable as well! Lastly the restrooms were clean!

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.

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.

This place is a pretty decent fish and chips shop. I'm a a fan of Leo Burdock's, but alas…read moresometimes it's nice to have a bit of a change. 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. The service was exquisite by everyone and it is a white table cloth restaurant, the prices were moderate and the food was very tasty.

While in Dublin, we were just looking for a restaurant nearby with great ratings, and this came up…read more We walked in with no reservations on a Saturday night, and we got seated immediately in a very packed restaurant. It was super snug - like really close seating next to other parties. However, it was really nice and intimate, and the service here was great and friendly. We got the salad with a baked block of goat cheese, and oh my, it was heavenly. Served with mixed greens, tomato, garbanzo beans and drizzled in olive oil and balsamic. The pizza was really great too, really simple and the bread on the pizza was perfect (the restaurant has a huge pizza oven so you know the pizza here is made legit). Saving the best for last, the past of the day, which had prawns, zucchini, tomatoes with bucatini, and the sauce is white wine, but it was like a creamy red, and no complaints. This is probably the best pasta dish we've had in a while and we were so satisfied. So glad we found this gem during our short stay in Dublin, and if you're craving good Italian food, check this place out.

The neighbourhood has been decidedly gentrified in the past number of years but the North Strand is still, shall we say, different. We were seated pretty much immediately and then reseated because I wound up sitting beside the door which, every time it opened, sent a cold draught down my spine. It didn't help that the door never properly closed without manual intervention. Anyway, one cocktail in and I didn't notice any more. The room was small but very cozy, service was efficient without being pushy so all good. The food was fantastic it has to be said. Italian, as the name suggests, throughout. My companion and I shared a bruschetta al pomodoro which was so moreish I was sorry we hadn't ordered one each. Two of the party opted for monkfish with pappardelle which was cooked to perfection. I had the penne with salsiccia which was superb and plentiful. A couple of bottles of montepulciano reserva later we headed back across the river sated and satisfied. We'll definitely be back, visas or no visas. Highly recommended.
