So satisfying. We brought our own wine, corkage is €3. Lovely and bright in warm inside. Service was very friendly and attentive.

We arrived 30 minutes early for our reservation, and were lucky to be able to get seats at the bar,…read morewhere we were happy to stay so we could eat early. Cork is a place you DEFINITELY need reservations for dinner - it's very busy, and popular restaurants like Orso do fill up very quickly. It was bustling even at 6:30PM, and was great to see a busy and thriving restaurant. The food and service was phenomenal, so good that we chose to dine at their sister restaurants across the rest of our visit to Cork. Highly recommended.

Walking into Orso, we were greated by our wonderful server Gabriella. She has a most friendly and…read moreinviting smile and she was very helpful. Though she was literally the only server for the entire restaurant this evening, she never made us feel rushed and was always patient with every group that came. This is a relatively small space with only about 6 tables inside. There was a large group sitting outside, they probably put together 2 or 3 tables. It's a relaxed place with some beautifully framed artwork on the wall. The menu provides a wonderful selection of Middle Eastern food. We didn't choose any drinks other than the water that was offered. My wife and I shared the Grilled Halloumi salad to start. The salad was delicious and the halloumi was superb. For the entree we both chose the fish of the day, a grilled sea bream with some sort of slaw. The fish was fantastic, prepared perfectly. It had wonderful flavors in addition to the excellent taste and texture of the fish. We ordered a side of sweet pea hummus with pita, which was absolutely delicious. We succumbed to ordering dessert because they too sounded so good. What made them totally special was that birth the Pear Tartin and Mahalabia were flavorful, not too sweet, and we didn't feel stuffed after enjoying them to complete our meal. The fresh mint tea that accompanied dessert was delicious.

You order at the counter and then they bring the food to you or you can get the food to-go! There were also a lot of people going in and out for deliveries, which is a good sign, I thought, as there are a lot of people eating there, and that means that the food must be very good. I ordered an halloumi wrap and sweet potato chips (fries). I was disappointed with the chips (fries) but the wrap and coffee were pretty good. I would love to go back to try out something different

Spotted Shouk on Dublin's The Eater Essentials and we booked this dinner res as our first night…read more Overall, the food was fantastic, great price point. and portion sizes were fantastic. Shouk's interior is very cute, with high ceilings and an open set up allowing you to dine outside, in a room connected to the outdoor space, or a darker, "indoor" area. food: Fantastic. As someone who is GF and was worried about this when traveling abroad, the GF options where fabulous and the restaurant is very accommodating. The food was fresh and served warm right as it was finished - huge plus service: Servers were kind and lovely :) Every table reservation gives you 1hr and 45 minutes to dine. if you're running late, you won't lose your table but you'll just be seated for a shorter amount of time - keep that in mind :) ambiance: The only reason I'd give Shouk 4 stars is because of the distance of the tables. In the room connected to the outdoor space where we were seated, things did feel a bit cramped. The restaurant has an "open kitchen" where you can see your food being cooked and come out which is great, but we did sit right next to the kitchen and things got a bit stuffy, despite the doors being open outside. Not sure if this was ventilation or the fact that there were many tables and folks dining that night, but that's the only thing i'd change about our experience.

The restaurant is right beside Drumcondra railway station, tucked into a corner of the Old St Vincent's Centre for the Deaf. Inside a cosy but buzzy dining room greets you with an impressive number of hungry diners tucking in to the Middle Eastern/Lebanese fare. We ordered a large mezze to share together with a Batta which is mostly roast sweet potatoes stuffed with lamb mince, yoghurt and spices. Absolutely fantastic. The mezze came with plentiful flatbreads which we hungrily filled with deliciousness and devoured. As it was lunchtime, we decided not to have any wine but I'd be pretty confident it would only be better with a crisp Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc. As it was, we had some sparkling water instead and agreed it was a standout meal that was filing but also vaguely healthy. Service was speedy and attentive and we emerged into the sunshine to begin, once again, the odyssey across the Liffey. We will be back.

Everyone should try out this amazing new Palestinian restaurant, you will thank me later…read more Tucked away in a little side lane, so easy to miss. But trust me, have a look for it. Starters/mezze are around 6/7 Euro and mains only around the 14 Euro mark. There is so much choice, you will have a hard time deciding what to take. There is a lot of vegetarian and even vegan options. Of course, we ordered way too much food as portions are massive. The hummus, halloumi, Baked prawns and falafel for starter came with lovely fresh bread. We were already stuffed when our mains arrived. I got some chicken in fermented yoghurt sauce. The rice served with it was full of nuts and pomegranate, delicious! To make things even better: This is a byob restaurant with only 4 Euro corkage. The waitress was super sweet and made us feel very welcome. Seriously go!

Was inspired by the restaurant name since I'm a lover of the shakshuka I've experienced in Tunisia…read more Their version of it was accurate by taste however far short of the sumptuous varieties of vegetables and meats found in the homemade offerings from Tunisian kitchens. Shakshuka is a small room with a linear layout which when crowded with the maximum number of occupied tables, creates a noise level so high that one must shout to be heard by a friend sitting directly across the table. The interior is somewhat reminiscent of Israeli culture but not representative of a whole lot of planning or investment of time and materials. The bathroom does however seem to be Middle Eastern in that there is one room for both sexes and one stall for each sex for those who are not sensitive to the combined concept.
