    Amazing restaurant with great service. The ambiance was sensational and just right. It is a very intimate setting that makes you feel like you are in an exclusive restaurant. Highly recommend this restaurant as the value you get for your money is incredible. You can easily pay more for the same meal somewhere else, but I wouldn't recommend that. If I am ever back in Dublin again, I will come back.

    Had a wonderful meal including the Fish Tower which was super fresh! All five of our main courses were superb and Leonardo our waiter was very attentive. Great Christmas ambience but equally excellent customer service on a very busy evening.
