Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Baggot Street Upper

You can't go to Osteria Lucio without having a really great evening whether there are several of you or just you and a friend. Everyone who works there makes you feel so welcome and their service is really 'outstanding'! And, oh yes, the food. Do you know what I love most about this place - they have their own menu. What do I mean by that? You feel that they have sat down and thought about what lots of different people want to eat. And, like so many places around Dublin they haven't ramped up their use of chilli. Oh, it's there where it should be but not in every dish!

First time diner, and it’s a definite return. Walking in you are greeted by everyone. Service was awesome - not over bearing but very knowledgeable and attentive when needed. Food is spectacular and super value. Scallops to start were fabulous but the sausage ragu with paccheri was incredible. Tiramisu was possibly best I’ve ever had - so light but packing a punch. Barolo was just awesome and full team very knowledgeable about all wines Strongly recommend, great experience

We had an amazing dinner at Host. We were greeted on arrival by Chloe who explained the menu to us. Staff were great!

I booked kickys for 6 of us for my partners birthday. From start to finish the experience was 5 stars. Welcomed by lovely staff who took our coats and showed us to our table. They explained the menu to us and took drinks orders, giving us time to decide on our meal. The tasting menu was €79 and gave you a chance to try nearly everything on the menu, which was incredible value when you look at the individual cost of each dish. The pace of the tasting menu was something I was particularly impressed with. I have done tastings in other restaurants and have felt rushed to finish and absolutely stuffed to the gills after, but in Kickys we were given plenty of time to savour each dish and relax between servings. At no time did we feel rushed or under pressure to give back our table etc. The music was chilled when we came in to eat and picked up a bit as the night went on which I thought was a clever touch to pick up the atmosphere as it got a bit later. I told our waiter that it was my partners birthday and they came out with a candle and cake and all the staff sang to him, including the chefs who gave it socks from the kitchen. Overall, the meal was expensive but considering the quality of both the food and service I would say excellent value for money. I will definitely be returning for my next occasion dinner.

Excellent food and even better guest service...our Server, Isa, was exceptional!! Than you for a great night and great memories!
