We came here without reservations and sat at the bar. My wife ordered the 8 ounce fillet and my son and I split the tomahawk. When our tomahawk arrived we removed the onion strings. The steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly. There was no need for the bearnaise or garlic butter sauces that we ordered. The mashed potatoes were the perfect side dish. I ordered the corned beef mash and it was just too flavorful for a side dish. My wife's fillet was perfect. We had the sticky toffee dessert which was awesome. The atmosphere was dark steakhouse and the service was excellent. read more

Scallops were tiny but tasty especially the mashed potatoes Broccoli was good but very seasoned and a bit salty The steaks were delicious! Twice Baked potatoes were super dry. Cute spot, easy to talk, not crowded at all but they require a $50 deposit for no shows. I would t rush to go here but good quality steak and solid service. Ambiance is bright chill and funny as all the pedestrians peer in the windows to see what it looks like as you're eating your meal. read more

First of all, don't make our mistake of walking right in. Call and make a reservation as soon as you can! That being said, the maitre d' was able to sit us at the bar where we got a lovely show of watching the talented cooks prep meals all night. The bartender created his own signature cocktails and offered to modify one to our tastes. What we ordered: - 30 oz Tomahawk steak for two - broccolini - spiced sweet corn This was a FEAST of yumminess. The steak came out perfect (medium rare). Excellent service, amazing food and a great restaurant all around. read more

Food was absolutely outstanding! We are from Chicago and the steaks rival anything we've ever eaten there. I would highly recommend.

Delicious steaks, we ate here twice (once for lunch and the other for dinner). The staff were really friendly and engaging. The lunch special was a fixed menu and was excellent. For dinner, my son wanted to split the tomahawk for 2. It is cooked on the wood fired grill right out the open at the bar. Definitely a great steak and cool venue. read more

We had a fabulous meal - ourfirst dinner in Dublin. Shared a perfectly cooked Tomahawk steak, oysters and some sides and good wine. Thoroughly enjoyed it! read more

Walk-in, no reservation, mid week. Sat at the far end of the bar. Restaurant was busy with several large groups that came in just after us. From our seats, we enjoyed watching the front of house work, and plate each of the meals. The warmth from the wood fire used to cook the steaks was pleasant. Split the Tomahawk steak with my son. Also got fries, and the cauliflower. The front-of-house chef double confirmed with us directly how we wanted the steak, medium-rare, and it was perfect. Wonderful evening. Great for our last night in Dublin. Good service, great food, nice atmosphere. Wine/beer menu was a bit limited. Took to my third choice for a glass of wine. Highly recommend. read more

Good steakhouse, albeit a little hard to find, in the Temple Bar area. Start with the steak, had to order the Tomahawk, given the restaurant's name. It was good to the perfect temperature, my most important criteria, and was quite tasty and well prepared. It also came with onion straws, which were excellent. As a starter, I went with tomato and mozzarella, very good though a little small (not a big deal given the size of the steak). I also enjoyed the many options of wine by the glass, as my friend wasn't drinking. The atmosphere was less formal and a little trendier than your typical steakhouse. Overall, a very nice meal. read more

Great service,wine, and steaks! The fire is hot if you sit at the bar. But the food was amazing and worth the heat. Walked in alone on a Saturday night, during a bank holiday weekend, without a booking so that was the only seat available. They were still very happy to accommodate me. read more

The food was great. We asked for rare and got it! The presentation and service were also top notch. Felt like a real old school steak out with the decor and styles. Great spot! read more

As many have said, the steaks are excellent. The meat is of a very high grade and the chefs cook them perfectly. We paired our meal with some of the suggested wine, Chateau Lacoste and enjoyed a lovely meal. Personally I was only missing some green vegetables as their only offering was brussel sprouts. I do highly recommend Tomahawk Steakhouse. read more

sooooooo good we split the tomahawk steak and my son had the filet. The drinks were good, wine was awesome and the sides- potato mash with bacon, asparagus and mushrooms were the best!!!!!!! read more

One of the best steaks I've had - wish it wasn't an ocean away :-) Husband and I went to Ireland for a week and this was one of the must eat at stops. We googled best places to eat in Dublin and Tomahawk Steakhouse came up repeatedly - and we both love red meat so it was a win win. Tomahawk Steakhouse is right off the busy, popular Temple Bar area. It's a small, cozy restaurant that serves an array of Irish beef and a handful of other main courses if you don't want beef. The service was top notch - I've noticed that service in other restaurants is not very good. I'm not sure if it's just a culture thing. The server came with the meat tray and explained every cut but we had been eyeing the tomahawk cut all week. We started with spicy Korean calamari for appetizers with a beer for my husband and a daiquiri for me. The calamari was spicy and delicious - wish I could have had my own bowl of it without sharing. We got the 30 oz tomahawk steak to share and a side of mashed potatoes. They grill it over an open fire and it does take a few extra minutes - but it was absolutely worth it. It literally just melted in my mouth. Highly recommend! If you're in the area, stop here! read more

I loved this place and the experience I had here. Girls' night out for steak and wine post-exams and boy, was it necessary - and excellent!! The ONE thing keeping it from getting 5 stars was that you pay for what you get - and that kept a touch of realism to the otherwise dreamy night. That being said. Not one of the three of us ordered anything that we didn't absolutely drool over. I got the Delmonte, basically a deboned ribeye, rare of course because that's how one must eat a good steak, and I found it cooked perfectly - red in the middle but a really nice, solid texture outside, just the barest hint of what could have been char. Topped with the crab meat and asparagus, it was truly a treat - and worth the extra bit for the toppings! They actually bring out the different cuts of steak for you to look over before you order, which I found to be a nice touch. We did spend some time with heads together debating what they actually DO with those cuts at the end of the night - cook them up and serve to the staff? Give them to the local dogs? Some sort of steaky witchcraft?? The wine came soon enough to distract us from getting our questions out, and both bottles we ordered (both Italian reds, as one must, I feel) were excellent choices. Our compliments to the sommelier! Although we were initially given a time by which we had to vacate our table, it was never mentioned to us and we ended up staying for dessert and chatting almost an hour past the initial time, despite being on a Saturday night. The restaurant was pleasantly busy the whole time but didn't feel overcrowded - and had nice, intimate but not strain-your-eyes lighting which complemented the restaurant's setting, basement-style but high ceilings mean windows at ground level. More than a few tourists peeked in, but it wasn't too distracting even being seated facing the windows. REALLY nice place, good service, GREAT food, and exactly what we wanted - quieter but the casual side of upscale, with great wine and excellent steak! Would recommend. read more

Tomahawk Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Dublin, D

Tomahawk steakhouse located in Dublin is a unique restaurant. This restaurant is uniquely designed that is in the sub level of a building or basement. They have a unique entrance with a white neon sign that says tomahawk. I am assuming they are know for their Tomahawk steak. When entering through the doors we were welcomed and was seated by the host. The menu was great that gave steak options from a T-bone steak, filet minion, tomahawk for two and many more selections. Before ordering, the waiter brings out a tray of meats to show to guest the different type of meats they are serving. They also serve complimentary bread and butter. What we ordered: Ice teas 4/5 Tomahawk steak 4/5 rating Parmesan fries 4/5 rating From my opinion the steaks in this establishment cooks their steaks towards the rare side. Which means if your use to ordering a medium well (slight hint of pink) steak this establishment medium well is more like a medium. That's based on my tomahawk steak order. I asked for a medium rare and it was more on the rare side on my opinion. The steak was cooked beautifully and comes in precut before being served to the table. They top of the steak with fried onion rings and a side of au jus sauce. Parmesan fries was plentiful that's good to be shared with. It was really good coming out fresh and warm. The fries came in a ceramic bowl topped with Parmesan cheese. The serving staff (host, waiters, servers) are polite, has good personalities, kind, and amazing. They were really nice and helped me as a first timer in their restaurant. I would recommend this place to friends! read more

Was okay. I had the burger as a test. The dish was good. The service was great. The place was busy. The staff was nice. They did not have Guinness which was a bit off. Overall the place was good. Nice the lower level restaurant. read more

I hate to leave this review because the steak itself was very good. The rest of the experience was awful, mainly because of the server but not exclusively. The server was absolutely terrible though. Possibly the worst service I've ever had. We are here March 20, 2023 at 8:30 pm and the woman who serves us took our order and basically never came back. They were out of all three of the wines my ordered, but even when we finally found one they had we could never get a second glass. No one ever came over at all to see if the food was ok. We literally had to wave our arms around in the air to get them to come over to get more drinks. We asked for a little more bread because the Brussels sprouts were really bad and we're still a little hungry and the server literally slammed a tray down, went over to the other servers and talked trash about us openly. This place is horrible and I wouldn't recommend to anyone which is sad, because the meat was good. read more

Great steaks, horrible service. My husband and I went here on our last night of our holiday. Made a reservation, host was friendly, atmosphere was great, greeted by our server and she provided visible representation of the available steaks. (Love this!) They were out of the three wines I chose so I took her recommendation on a Pinot Noir. Ordered and received our drinks, it was just okay but I wasn't able to express that or order anything else because she disappeared. The expo delivered our food but we never saw our server again until we were completed finished with our meal. She came out onto the floor and totally ignored us and the other table she was serving next to us. After waiving her down for another glass of wine (again empty plates with the exception of a full dish of Brussels sprouts) she did not ask how our food was, even ONCE. I think our wave offended her because she was very rude after that. Visible frustrated and talking about us to the other servers...We did nothing disrespectful, in fact, I am a VERY polite person in general so I'm not sure what the issue was. As a high end steakhouse, I don't think its an unreasonable expectation to check on your table to ask how their food was. Had to ask the host for the bill. The food was the only thing positive about this experience. What I'd recommend if you choose to go here.... 5/5 - house bread & butter 4/5 - house salad 1/5 - Brussels sprouts (I prefer a different preparation style, I believe they were boiled in Parmesan/milk, they were slimy, maybe okay for others if you're into that) 6/5 - strip steak with add on prawns (this was amazing!!! We ordered medium-rare, came out medium) For reference, my husband and I have both been in hospitality/service industry for 20+ years. We are understanding of mistakes and errors but this service was completely unacceptable. read more

No idea the reviews here. Mediocre, at best. Sat at the kitchen counter and watched the chefs talk gossip back and forth. Steak came, after being pushed, and was meh. Sides, the recommended potatoes were so over and poorly seasoned that they were actually inedible. Tried the sweet potatoe gnocchi. Taste was ok but watched them make it into a tough doughy weird dish. Staff is very nice. The wine list is a joke for a "steakhouse" Help me out with in what world can your wine list be stored under the same kitchen hood next to your deep fryers with a few bottles of liquor mixed in? I rarely take the time to review restaurants but felt inclined after the great reviews here then a just blah meal. read more

Tomahawk Steakhouse - Wine next to deep fryers must help with the aging? - Steakhouses Near Me - Dublin, D

Walked in to try and get a table and the man in the front basically scoffed and laughed at us. He said they were full and didn't give us the option to wait or anything. Worst customer service in Dublin. The place was not full btw. read more

One of the best steaks I've ever had! Everything was delicious. If you are in Dublin I recommend adding this to your dining out list.

I had the burger and my rest of my family had the Tomahawk steak. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the Parmesan fries were excellent. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I had the crème brûlée for dessert and it was delicious. I recommend this restaurant but the atmosphere but the only thing I didn't like was the side of spinach that came with the steak. My parents say this is the best Irish coffee they have ever had! read more

Kind host found a spot for us at the bar at 9:30. Had the house specialty Tomahawk steak and it was superb. Whipped mashed potatoes were light and fluffy as was the side of Bernadine sauce. Onion rings were crunchy without being greasy and well seasoned. Also noteworthy was the fun, bright and surprisingly complex little dinner salad. The bartender Doug was fun to chat up while we asked a million questions. read more

TLDR: a very good steakhouse, but with a few changes could be excellent. I was greeted by the host to a mostly empty restaurant, an odd sign at prime dinner hours on a Friday, but I was seated at the bar where I had a view of the entire kitchen staff working. My waitress was friendly and introduced me to the wine list and drinks menu, as well as brought a tray of the raw steaks to talk over the different cuts. The wine menu had a unique variety and included tasting notes. My one recommendation here is that since based on these tasting notes I assume a sommelier is employed, send them out along with the review of the cuts to recommend pairings and it would really enhance the experience. I started with the tuna ceviche and it was by far my favorite course of the meal, which is both good and bad for a steakhouse. The tuna was extremely high quality and was one of the better ceviches I've ever had, but it should not outshine the main course. I ordered the delmonico and asked for it somewhere between rare and medium-rare, topped with the port blue cheese butter, and a side of the spinach and artichoke. When it first came the presentation was nice, though the steak looked to be overdone from the outside, so I was hesitant when cutting in, however it was cooked absolutely perfectly and my knife went through it like butter. I was so very excited for my first bite, but was left a little disappointed. The quality of meat was obviously excellent, and again cooked perfectly, but I just felt the steak was extremely under seasoned. And this is with the blue cheese butter, which while was good, I felt wasn't the best pairing for my steak. Personal fault, not the restaurants, but I can't bring myself to order a sauce on a steak at a nice steakhouse because the steak with a little butter should be good enough. This is one of those instances I just wish I had gone with a sauce. Recommendation here would be to up the seasoning on the steaks so you don't need the sauce. My side of spinach and artichoke was nice, but nothing to write home about. I would recommend going with one of the heartier potato sides. Finally I closed out my meal with a nice, moderately expensive glass of whiskey. Now, again, I was sitting at the bar so I could watch it being poured, and had the displeasure of watching the bartender pour it into a metal shot glass and then into my glass for serving. Now, I'm not snob, and don't mean to come across as such, but there is something to be said for simple barcraft and being able to eyeball a measure, especially on a nice whiskey. It's all about the experience that separates the good from the great and this was just a simple thing that shouldn't be overlooked. Probably being a bit harsh, and ultimately the meal was closer to 5 stars than 4, but I really think this place has great potential and I'd like to see it fix the small things to be great. read more

Outstanding! The ambiance here sets the mood for an upscale but laid back experience. The food is outstanding. Ravioli app was very unique and tasty, salads were also great while reasonably priced. Had the filet with Jameson Peppercorn sauce - WOW was it good! The way they prepare their steak is unique, the flavor is outstanding! Sides were good size and quality as well. Hannah did an excellent job as our server! Go here! You won't be disappointed! read more

Well being from the US i expected the tomahawk to be like Mastros or better.... it wasn't... not even close. Half of it was over cooked and there other half was undercooked. We asked for medium rare.... had to send the second half back to be cooked more and then it came back tasting like oil! We didn't complain, ate it and left.... too much hype. Nice place but under delivered. read more

Outstanding service and love the presentation of bringing out all the meats to pick and choose! The meat itself is pretty good quality yet I hope they seasoned the meat alittle bit more. Cooked very well though and the price is comparable to similar cuts in the US. We had the tomahawk ribeye and the filet mignon. read more

Somewhat of a mixed experience. The service was very good, the app was excellent (had the short rib croquette). Drinks were good if a bit small. The sides we ordered were also excellent (broccoli, pan fried potatoes, and fries). The primary complaint I would have was with the beef. For a group of 3 we ordered a tomahawk to split, and a delmonico for one. The delmonico was ordered medium-rare, it came nearly blue (though it was corrected with a re-fire). The tomahawk was ordered medium, came very rare, and they serve it sliced off the bone after a brief rest. Both steaks were also served with an unspecified Cajun rub- which wasn't unpleasant from a flavor perspective, but was unexpected. The dry-aged flavor on the tomahawk was very intense, and a bit unpleasant when combined with the very large portions of unrendered fat. If you're used to a US steakhouse you may find the meat disappointing, but the rest of the experience was quite enjoyable. read more

Loved it. Great steak, liked how they showed the options you can order and it was cooked to perfection on the open flame. Sit at bar and watch em do it! read more

Amazing. Being from New York, our expectations were pretty high; especially since we really enjoy a good steak. The Tomahawk for 2 was cooked perfectly, seasoned perfectly, and served beautifully. The mashed potatoes were excellent and so was the broccoli with smoked yogurt. The service was great. read more
