    We had such a great experience at Boxty House! The food was absolutely delicious, and the boxty…read morefries were a standout--crispy, flavorful, and definitely one of our favorite things we ordered. Everything we had was so good and made for a really memorable meal. The service was exceptional as well. Our server was so friendly, attentive, and welcoming, and really made the experience even better. If you're visiting Dublin and looking for delicious, traditional Irish food in a fun and welcoming atmosphere, I definitely recommend Boxty House!

It was not too loud in our seats by the window where we could watch the action in Temple Bar. Boxty - think of a potato version of a crepe (a little thicker) - Gaelic boxty - 4/5 solid offering with a generous portion of steak on top of the boxty and with mushrooms and mushroom sauce - Chicken boxty - 4/5 chicken breast wrapped in boxty with a roasted red pepper on top and slice of chorizo (I didn't care much for the chorizo but my partner happily ate it) with tasty sauce with cooked chopped onions - concannon - 4/5 basically mashed potatoes on top of a little bit of cooked kale (said cabbage too but I didn't see it) - green beans with lemon and goat cheese - 4/5, tangy lemon forward I know people say this is touristy and that is likely since it is in Temple Bar and I don't see why that's a problem! Definitely worth trying when you're in the area.

    The service was great and the servers were super friendly, even though we showed up (unknowingly) 5…read moreminutes before the kitchen closed. Great ambiance, and it felt like a solid Irish bar. Loved our Guinness, but the fish and chips were maybe the worst we have ever had. The fish was gray (not flaky, forget even being fluffy) and oily/greasy. The mushy peas were flavorful and the chips were great and we thoroughly enjoyed them with our pints. The burger looked terrific but tasted like two dried meat pucks with cheese. Might be one of the worst burgers I have ever eaten. I'm not sure if the food quality was this bad because we arrived so late in the evening or if it was because we were not the local patrons, either way it was really disappointing as our first meal in Dublin. Maybe go for a pint or maybe go earlier in the day but definitely don't go at night expecting the food to be good. Three stars because the servers were friendly enough, though nobody checked in once our meals were dropped off. I've traveled all over Ireland and this service and experience was lackluster at best.

    Staff...awesome and professional. Food...so good...the fish is excellent and those ribs, get some…read moreof those too. Ambience...the cozy down home feel of old school cool is definitely real and appealing to those that appreciate an authentic experience. When in Dublin again I'll definitely be back at the MC.
