A fine dining restaurant in the basement of the Dublin Writers Museum on Parnell Square, cooking French technique with Irish produce and long recognised by Michelin.
Because it is the best restaurant in Dublin and has been for a long time, and because the lunch menu makes that reachable for about two thirds of the evening price.
Serious cooking, an atmospheric basement dining room, Irish produce treated with French technique, and a lunch menu that is the sensible way in.

Three-course lunch 95 euros, surprise tasting menu 150 euros, artisan cheese selection an additional 29 euros. Reservations online and essential.

Two to two and a half hours.
The best meal in Ireland. Book lunch, not dinner, and skip the cheese supplement unless you are celebrating.

The cooking is French technique applied to Irish produce, and it has…
