I was greatly surprised to find an authentic BBQ joint in Dublin, but here you have it. Don't miss…read morethis place if you are craving smoky meats, creamy Mac 'n Cheese, and sweet & savory sauces. 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.

Walked in around 7:30 on a Wednesday night and it was packed. Couldn't get a table so I went across…read morethe street to Gushi and had a few beers and two bottles of soju. Around 9, went back and got a table. Ordered pork belly and jjam bbong. Quite surprised with the strips of pork belly for just one serving and for the price! Great portion size and it was delicious. I was able to grill it myself which I prefer. The side dishes were though limited, but the kimchi and seaweed were tasty. Was shocked they didn't have any soju or even Korean beer even thought the restaurant across the street did... The jjam bbong was nice and spicy. Good chunks of seafood. Overall, not bad for the price ~ 48 euros with two bottles of beer and the food was quite good. Oh, they don't accept AmEx and they close at 10 pm on Wednesday nights.

This place felt like every other Korean spot, as the space was welcoming and cozy. I think this restaurant was specifically catered towards those wanting kbbq, because their portions for their regular entrees weren't that great considering the prices and they don't give you much banchan. 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.

The mains are all around 10 euro and come with two sides. We got a very unwarm welcome though, and also when we left no thank you, no smile. Maybe it was because we came in with groupon vouchers, I just felt they didn't want us there (even though we were the only customers!) Also we were seated underneath the speakers and some radio channel was on, with a dj constantly blaring, which was just disturbing. I enjoyed my meal. Not the atmosphere.

Got take-out from this place so didn't eat in. Seemed nice enough though, and BYOB!…read more The only guy working there when we popped in was really friendly and helpful - had to laugh though, the deal online was 2 pizzas for which you can choose 3 toppings each, and when we got the pizzas home and opened them up, all 6 toppings were on one and the other was plain cheese! Really did chuckle a bit, fortunately didn't make too much of a difference to us. Their chips are phenom, the wings are SUPER nice - really have some meat on them, plus tender! - and the deals they run are also great. The pizza was just so-so. However, for the amount we got for the money, it was kind of a miracle so no complaints! Would def give the place another go.

The "potato" was inedible, and that was 80% of the roll. I pulled that out and haphazardly ate the rest. What was edible was OK. 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.

The host and waiters are top tier and extremely knowledgeable. Something we wish we knew before going is that it is a pre fixe menu. We went for the 6 course with 6 wine paring. Everything was exquisitely prepared and had very unique taste. Until we got to the pigeon... which was definitely not our favorite. :x The desserts were some of the best we've ever had. It was definitely a dining "experience". Not a place to go to have a few pints with your pals and get a hearty steak. But if you're an adventurous eater and willing to spend around $500 for a 2 person dinner, then it's worth checking out. Also I think it is worth mentioning again, the staff were amazing.
