    Surprisingly good food by the river in Dublin, thought it would be a tourist trap. Highly recommend.

    Started with a variety of aged parm cheeses and honey followed by a smoked fish and pasta dish and the signature bolognese. Could have used a bit more fish - because it was sooo delicious. Topped off this wonderful meal with a shared tiramisu. Wish we ordered two. A lovely Italian experience in Dublin.

    I am a regular at Bar Italia, hands down the best Italian experience in Dublin City Centre , since David Izzo took over as a solo restaurant owner. The new dining area downstairs is beautiful, food and staff never disappoint, attention to details top notch! Thank you guys
