Being from Miami, we were pleasantly surprised to find Venezuelan food in Ireland. Not only were the arepas delicious but they were one of the best I had ever tasted. The meat was tender and flavorful with the right amount of beans, cheese and sauces. I had "La Pelua" and my wife had the Pacheco. Top it off with the perfectly fried yuca fries and a pint of red ale for $14 Euros. Definitely can't wait to go back to Ireland and will have another arepa.

I never thought I'd hear myself type this, but... I think I tried one of the best burritos I've…read moreever had, not in California, but in Dublin. Yes, Ireland. The lady running this place, while being Brazilian, knows how to make legit Mexican cuisine better than most Mexicans I know. The menu is simple, with your typical offering of tacos, burritos, and quesadillas made with all the quality and care of a 5-Star restaurant, but with the love and attention of a family-run business. One of their biggest selling points is how spicy their food can get. Whilst you can definitely go ahead and order mild, the 'super spicy' option tempts most to try it at least once. Given that my friend has a stomach of steel, I got him to try it for me and tell me all about it. He almost cried; most people do when they try this chili. But the flavor is all there, with a slight sweetness that makes it almost addictive. I can personally vouch for their chicken burrito and the quesadillas. The quesadillas are the cheesiest ones I've had yet, and the burrito packs all the flavor you could possibly want from such a concoction, with or without the sauces. However, if I may suggest a compromise between the super spicy sauce and nothing at all: They also have a homemade chipotle sauce and a jalapeño one, neither of which are overly-hot, yet both still pack all the flavor you could want to add to your taco or burrito. And while I have no complaints about my pollo asado burrito, whatsoever, I was given to try a bit of the carnitas by Tatiana, and let me just say, if you're not vegetarian, you HAVE to order this meat. It's crispy, slightly-sweet, with just a hint of cinnamon, and as succulent as they come. I almost wish I could go back in time to try it all again. I usually don't feel that way about most things in Dublin.

They have the best oysters! The plan for the day was to drive to Howth and explore the town. But…read moreheavy rains and wind ruined those plans. Since we were on this side of the town, we decided to make the most of it and look for a meal of seafood. I had Octopussy's Tapas bookmarked when researching for the trip, so we decided to stop in for lunch. It was a Thursday at around 1:30, and the restaurant was almost full. It's a very small restaurant and it's mostly high top tables with bar stools, so it wasn't exactly looking baby-friendly, since had our 8-month old and a stroller with us. Luckily, they have a small back room (literally a room that can probably seat 4-6 people) that was available, and they seat us back there. It was nice and cozy, and cute - decorated like you were on a ship. Here is what we ordered: -Carlingford Oysters (served in the shell with fresh lemon) - these oysters were everything! They were big, shucked properly, and tasted super fresh. It didn't need anything but the lemon but they did recommend us trying their housemade hot sauce. We did and we loved it, and ended up buying a bottle to take home. We also ended up ordering some more oysters for dessert (lol) -Seafood Chowder (squid, mussels, smoked coley, & prawns served with homemade brown bread) - this was full of seafood. It is heavy though since chowder is cream-based so I would recommend sharing this, as opposed to ordering one on your own. The brown bread was also very nice -Seafood Paella (paella rice, chorizo, mussels, gambas, squid rings, and smoked coley) - another dish filled with seafood. They don't skimp out here! I could have done without the squid rings (they tasted rubber-bandy, like they're from frozen), and the smoked coley. I'm not a huge fan of smoked foods. I didn't really taste it in the chowder - maybe the cream covered it up, but I was able to taste it more in the paella -Whiskey Scallops (cooked in whiskey butter) - very rich but the scallops were good. You definitely want to dip some of the brown bread in this sauce There were so many other dishes we wanted to try but we had to stop ourselves from ordering too much for two people. Overall, it was a great meal and at these prices for seafood?! You really can't beat it.

Thank you for the recommendation, Fodor's! (yes, I bought their travel guide like a true tourist.)…read more My friends and I wanted to try some Ireland oysters because we heard they were supposedly super fresh. We were running out of time on our hunt to find them when I realized, 'I've got my trusty guidebook!!' And that's how we ended up here. It was 12 Euros for 6 oysters and a glass of wine. Since there were four of us, the lady was nice enough to give us 4 cups of wine (yes, plastic cups - it's a farmer's market, what do you expect!) They even threw in an extra oyster! SO FRESH! SO BIG! (cue that's-what-she-said joke). Compared to NYC oysters, these babies looked like they were on steroids! They also have this dipping sauce (had onions and was really vinegar-y, but good. But if you don't like the sour, you should just take the oyster straight.) Didn't eat anything else from other stands because we just had lunch. However, I believe they had shish kebabs, crepes, and bread. Oh and FYI - Sheridans Cheesemongers was there (saw this place on Anthony Bourdain when he went to Dublin so thought this might be worth mentioning). Definitely check out this farmer's market!
