We wrapped up our tour along the Irish coast with our final nights in Dublin and decided to have dinner at Pickle. It ended up being the best meal of our entire trip. We started with the Duck and Venison appetizer. The duck was incredibly tender with perfectly crisp skin, while the venison samosa had a crispy exterior, flavorful filling, and just the right amount of heat. For our mains, my wife ordered the Tandoori Chicken with basmati rice, and I had the Junglee Maans with Dilli Wala Butter Naan. The tandoori chicken was cooked perfectly, beautifully seasoned, and paired wonderfully with the fresh red onions, rice, and naan. The Junglee Maans was the standout dish of the night--tender, flavorful, and coated in a rich, spicy sauce that had me scraping my plate clean. The butter naan was the perfect companion for soaking up every bit of it. We finished with the Raspberry Sorbet, served with fresh strawberries, raspberries, and white chocolate sauce. It was light, refreshing, and the perfect ending to an incredible meal. From start to finish, every dish was outstanding. Pickle was easily our favorite restaurant of the trip, and it's the first place we'll return to the next time we're in Dublin. read more

This place was popping on a weekday night. It seems to be popular with locals and tourists alike. The host did not appear friendly, without any warmth whatsoever. (Restaurants take note and hire a friendly person as a host) The rest of the service was kind and attentive. Food was good, albeit too much for a single diner. I would recommend for a try if you are into Indian food. read more

The atmosphere at this place was a bit fancy, definitely nice, and suits dated as well. The service was great too, very friendly. Everything we tried was super tasty, the spices were balanced, the presentation was great, and not too spicy for our pallet. Chicken Biryani rice (€29.9), with a bready top that was taken off by the server, side of yogurt, side of masala sauce. Super tasty dish 10/10. Potato cake appetizer (€13.5), super tasty, it was topped with complementary sauces, well balanced between savory, sour, and tart. Excellent appetizer. Puri Chaat? (€15), They didn't list it on the menu, I asked for it and the chef was nice enough to create it for me. Super tasty and not too spicy We also go the slow cooked Wicklow lamb to go (€28.5), the meat was super tender, the flavors were excellent, some of the best Indian flavored lambs I've ever tried. The price for two people without drinks is (€104.65), which is on the pricy side, but the flavors and experience was worth it. All in all, I tried this place about 6 years ago and it was great and I tried it again and they still kept their high quality tasty food. Definitely recommend read more

On my last visit to Dublin, my friend had one request - to try Dublin Indian food, and Pickle was the top choice. Let me just say, we were blown away. Our order (all of which we split): Drink - Mango Lassi (we each ordered one; I'm obsessed) Appetizer - Chowk Ki Aloo Tikki (Crispy potato cakes filled with cumin & ginger tempered green peas, 3 chutneys - loved) Main - Farmers Butter Chicken (Old Delhi style chicken tikka with fenugreek, ginger, green chilli & cardamom flavoured - velvety tomato & onion masala, finished with fresh cream) & Nalli Nihari (Wicklow lamb shank simmered for 12 hrs with caramelized onion, ginger & turmeric flavoured with saffron & ginger) Sides - Basmati Rice, Dilli Wala Butter Naan, & 1 Pair of Pickle (this one was not my fav) Dessert - Gulab Jamun (Indian milk donuts fried in clarified butter and soaked in saffron, rose sugar syrup, vanilla ice cream) The whole meal was perfection - everything (except for the pickle side that I wasn't a fan of) tasted incredible. There was so much flavor in every bite. We sat in the back of the restaurant which happened to be next to the table where Nick Jonas had recently visited before us. We had this dinner booked before we saw that so great minds! We also were able to meet Chef Sunil Ghai and pay our compliments. Our waitress was amazing (I don't recall her name sadly but the receipt says it was printed by Dexter). As part of our reservation, we pre-paid €50 so our remaining bill was €54.95. For what we got, it was a fantastic value, and I cannot wait to come back. On the way out we spotted Chef Sunil Ghai's cookbook called Spice Box: Easy, Everyday Indian Food Hardcover. I made note because after getting back home, I ordered cookbooks for both myself and my friend. Have I made any recipes from it yet? No, but hopefully I'll get around to it soon. Just a note, when I was looking up their website to complete this review, I noticed they don't offer takeaway service which is a bit surprising. Maybe their thought is the quality isn't as good which I get but if I lived in Dublin, I'd want to be able to get takeout. read more

It turns out you have to go to Ireland to eat amazing Indian food. Okay you don't HAVE to go to Ireland but if you find yourself there and in Dublin, try Pickle, a Michelin-awarded restaurant. We decided to have an early dinner and snagged a reservation at Pickle, which I researched previously but didn't make a reservation ahead of time because we hadn't locked down our schedule. The day before we made our decision to stay in Dublin for the day so I looked at Pickle and found a reservation. The restaurant is a small narrow one and even given our early reservation it was packed. We were shown to our table and quickly greeted with water. After looking at the menu we ordered a bottle of white wine, a Bordeaux blanc. We also ordered appetizers of tandoori prawns and wings. Both were amazing. For our meals I got a pork chop vindaloo and my husband got a lamb shank. We ordered naan, okra and pickles, of course, to share. Everything was beautifully plated and really tasty. The only thing I didn't love were the pickles. I'm so glad I found this exceptional restaurant and would definitely go back. read more

Found this restaurant off the Michelin Guide list. The chef's aim to marry Irish produce with North Indian flavors. They incorporate a lot of pickles in the dishes. I got a classic mango lassi, the paneer methi malai (green peas, fenugreek, cashew nut, caramelized onion) with their garlic coriander naan. Everything was DELICIOUS. Paneer methi malai was a burst of flavors & their naan is unique, it's flat like a roti but still puffy like a naan. Ambiance is warm & cozy & service was above & beyond, the chef came to check in & the server Roshan was great. Definitely want to come back & try their apps. Cheers! read more

Pickle's interpretation of Indian food is one of the phenomenal dining experiences I've ever had. Don't go here for your standards -- you won't find "chicken tikka masala" or samosas. What you will find, however, are the most delicious combinations of flavors and spices ever. I've added some photos of the dishes my friend and I had; I highly recommend, however, that you ask your server what they'd recommend. We had great conversations with ours, and she steered us in the right direction each time. Go hungry. Take your time. Do not waste your limited stomach capacity on white rice -- instead, have the naan or order the variety basket to try different breads. You definitely need a reservation, and with other restaurants in Dublin, there are seating times between which you'll need to fit in. Dublin has become a real foodie town with many places to try. But if I were to return, I would prioritize coming back to Pickle. read more

Definitely recommend eating here if you're in the area. Make sure to make a reservation ahead of time.

Liked how allergen friendly/knowledgeable they were since we are lactose intolerant. - Aloo Tikki - Pork Champ Vindaloo - Choley Bhature - Goat Keema Pao - Roti - Bread Basket (FYA, costs money per) - Basmati Rice (FYA, costs money per) - Gobhi Masala - Bhindi Masala read more

Michelin star Indian restaurant in Dublin, how could I say no? I did my research and everywhere said that this is the best Indian food in Ireland, especially these parts. I asked my local friends too who confirmed it was "the best" and were so excited I snagged a reservation. Booking online in advance is a must. The website hosts a lot of rules but for good reason, this is a spot everyone's wanting to try. They do hold a $25 reservation fee per person upfront. The good news is that's applied towards your bill. That's how busy this place gets and they want to ensure you will keep your reservation. I don't mind an upfront charge as it goes towards my meal anyways. Arriving to Pickle restaurant it doesn't look like much from the outside. You wouldn't be aware what delicious treats await you inside. Once inside we were greeted immediately by a host and taken to our table near the back. This was great as it was more private and gave us prime seating to oversee their semi open kitchen layout. I'd recommend an early dinner if you want it a little more peaceful. Came for 5:15pm dinner service and it was a nice lull before the rush (Europeans eat later). By the time we left though every table was taken. The service was impeccable. Even when we entered the restaurant as we were walked to our table there was line of wait staff welcoming you. Once we sat the pace was great and very attentive service without being overbearing, it was perfect. They even repour your water glass for you even though the glass water container is on your table. True 5 star service. Everyone was very nice and friendly. The menu is pretty extensive and had a great variety of options. I was impressed that for a Michelin star restaurant it wasn't too pricey. For two people having a full course and drinks, it was only about $80 American dollars (and remember with the $25 per person upfront it only came to $30). Girl math hahaha. Again, reasonable. The food was definitely 5 stars and this is great Indian cuisine all around. You must come here if you are visiting! The locals already know about it and love it. To drink I needed a break from alcohol and went with a Mango Lassi, super refreshing and creamy. It was delicious. Super smooth and tasty, cooled me down. For the main course went with the butter chicken, basmati rice, naan, dal, and riata sauce. Every bite was heavenly. Shoutout to my friend Emily for recommending the Riata because it was such a refreshing cucumber sauce which was a great addition to the mains. I forgot to ask for the butter chicken mild and it had a slight kick. Everything was delicious and presentation was classic but fabulous. One of the best overall meals in Dublin and I'm so glad I came here. Everyone deserves to try this spot once. read more

We have to try Indian food in every city we visit. Our first night in Dublin, every local we asked said this was the best. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a reservation through their online booking site. I tried for a couple of days and finally decided to call them. They were wonderful and got us in for the next night. Service was excellent and everything we ordered was perfectly spiced to the level each of us requested- from tongue torch to mild. I'm very happy we were able to get in. read more

We had a really delicious (warning: filling!) lunch at Pickle a couple days ago. The staff was completely on top of things and high quality, and the food was delicious. Their lunch prix fixe is a great deal, tons of delicious food at a reasonable price: It includes an appetizer, a main, rice and naan for a little bit more than an a la carte main. We got the pork belly ribs and samosa chaat as appetizers, both were fantastic. The ribs were a *lot* of food, deliciously flavored with a not-overwhelming mango-pickle-like sauce. The Samosa Chaat was well executed, two crispy samosa's with very good chutneys. For mains we got the butter chicken and chicken biryani, both were executed well as expected. read more

Delicious food and excellent service at this attractive Indian restaurant on Camden Street. My taxi driver recommended visiting Pickle and I was happy not only to find it but to arrive just before they opened and be seated without a reservation. The staff are absolutely professional and accommodating. I am often impressed by the levels of service this community offers and am grateful for it. My butter Naan, butter chicken, and long grain rice were all superb. Was it my favorite butter chicken ever? No. But I can certainly see why everyone loves this restaurant and after opening, they appeared to fill tables quickly. Would I return? Yes. You'll pay a few euros more, but the service and quality of food make up for it. read more

Great Indian food and service! Made lunch reservations prior to traveling to Ireland after reading so many wonderful reviews and am so glad we made it to this restaurant. It was a bit of a cab ride from our hotel near the Docklands area but easy to get around in the city so wasn't a big deal. We were promptly seated on arrival and our servers were friendly and attentive. They have a lunch menu that has both a Prix Fixe menu and a la carte options. We ordered a la carte and enjoyed everything. My son ordered a mango lassi, one of the best I've ever had. We ordered the samosa chaat to start and had butter chicken, lamb curry, plain naan and Peshawari naan. Everything was delicious! We were too full for dessert. Happy we were able to get a table here, enjoyed every bite! read more

This was my favorite meal of the trip!!!!! It was also our final meal of the trip and what a way to close out Dublin. The food was so incredible, the ambiance is lovely and the server was so friendly and nice. You can't go wrong with any dish but we had the wings and a potato dish to start. For our main courses, we had the cottage cheese and spinach vegetarian special and the black Dahl with sides of rice, naan and pickles. Everything was SO delicious. I'll be thinking about this meal for a long time! Definitely make a reservation ahead of time!!! read more

I need to start by saying you MUST try. I'm not picky but I love food. I have very high expectations. This place was so wonderful I can't say enough good things. We looked for places by our hotel. This was highly rated and also had no reservations for weeks. I figured we would stop by and give it a try that someone cancelled. We were so lucky to get a table right next to the kitchen. We ordered the fish curry (stone fish), paneer makhan masala, bread basket, and rice. We also got Prosecco and a bottle of Chardonnay. Everything was spiced perfectly, cooked to perfection, and the service was excellent. I have nothing to suggest and it was perfect. The lively kitchen and the calming dining room was a romantic and energetic environment. Must try! 5 stars and Michelin awarded too. read more

Was looking for a last minute mid-week reservation and got a slot later than I wanted. Emailed them back and received a prompt response accommodating me at an earlier time. The email exchange took place a day when the restaurant was closed. Was promptly seated upon arrival. Ordered the aloo tikki starter (really wanted the wings but trying to eat more vegetarian food) and the Lal Maas (Rajisthani spicy lamb - not turning into a vegetarian...) along with a naan. The food was excellent - I wanted to like the aloo tikkis from the streets of Delhi I grew up eating more, but Pickle's version had a wonderful balance and crispness worthy of any self-respecting tikkiwala. By the time my appetizer was done, the restaurant was full. The Lal Maas was sublime. Despite gorging on the tikkis (2 in a portion), I couldn't stop eating the spicy, tart sauce with the naan. The lamb was (mostly) super tender. And this is a very minor gripe. Ambience was nice and the service was attentive and pleasant without being overbearing. Will be back. read more

I've eaten more than my fair share of curries at fancy and not fancy restaurants around the world....NYC, LA, Atlanta, London etc. Without a doubt, Pickle is one of the greatest experiences my wife and I have ever had. The service is impeccable, the menu is daring but features some classics executed to perfection. The "Masala Ribs" makes this Indian in Texas smile in Glee. The lamb chop and lamb gosht were some of the most flavorful dishes I have ever had. They were kind enough to email me back and confirm a reservation just a few hours before opening! Highly recommended for authentic (I am Indian so yes I can say that) Indian cuisine ! read more

TLDR: One of the WORST dining experiences of my entire life thus far. If I could give it a 0 star rating, I most certainly would. Horrendous service, disappointing overcooked food, and a marked lack of attention and care from service staff compared to the other customers seated around us. Perhaps this may be the best Indian cuisine in Dublin but I can confidently say I've had Indian food that was as good if not infinitely better than Pickle from just my local cheap Indian take-out spot in New York. I was very excited for my dinner reservation at Pickle as I had read many positive reviews on Yelp about the service and food. My sister and I ordered the Fauzi Chicken Wings, Farmers Butter Chicken, Tandoori Pork Champ, Gobhi Masala, Tandoori Bread Basket, and Basmati Rice. Ultimately, the chicken wings were the only memorable part of the meal. They were spicy, flavorful, and crisp on the outside while tender on the inside. The butter chicken was quite lackluster and the pork (which they tout as a "Signature" dish) was so dry and overcooked, it was like I was chewing on a hockey puck. Regarding the service, I could describe it as unfriendly/alienating at best, but that would suggest that there was any service at all? Rather, there was a striking lack of attention and care throughout the entire meal. From the moment we sat down to the moment we left, no one ever stopped by to ask how the food was. No one ever asked if we needed anything. Our water glasses repeatedly stood empty for up to 10 minutes at a time while numerous servers strolled past our table multiple times. The only time they seemed to care about our presence at all was when we asked for the bill without even finishing our meal, less than 45 minutes after sitting down, out of frustration and exasperation over the disappointing experience. One server was particularly rude. I asked if he could take away some of the garbage that had accumulated on our table at the start of our meal, including used moist towelettes and an empty beer bottle and soda can that had been sitting on the edge of the table for over 15 minutes. He didn't stay long enough to listen to me finish my sentence, ignored my request, and walked away without taking all of the items away. They sat there until the end of the meal and were still there by the time I asked for the check. Again, during this entire time, numerous servers walked past our table multiple times without helping us. Most noticeably, there was a clear difference in how we were treated vs. how others around us were treated. For example, 4 women were seated at a table directly adjacent to us. As I timed, I noted MULTIPLE DIFFERENT servers checked in on their table every 3-5 minutes, asking how the food was, whether they needed anything, topping up their water and wine glasses, and cleaning up garbage from their table. Meanwhile, my sister and I, seated perhaps a mere 8 inches away sat ignored and overlooked. In summary, to say I am disappointed by my dining experience at Pickle would be a gross understatement. I most certainly would not return and would NOT recommend dining here. If you're visiting Dublin, a trip instead to literally any pub would be an INFINITELY better use of your time and money. read more

I just logged into my Yelp account after a 6 year hiatus to share about my experience at Pickle. I am hoping this is helpful, especially for out of town visitors who are considering carving out time of their trips for a meal here. I know I depend highly on reviews when planning our meals for international vacations. Pickle was the dinner we picked for our last night in Dublin, and we were very excited leading up to our resy. The general online consensus painted Pickle as a must try, and I'm genuinely confused as to why? The silver lining to this experience is the prompt seating, the standard not rude aka bare minimum service of some servers, and the chicken wing starter which was really delicious. The rest of the food is pretty average. Maybe we chose incorrectly? Butter chicken was incredibly basic. Their signature Pork Champ was also nothing to write home about. It was tough, and the probably once crispy pork skin was chewy and gelatinous by the time we dug in. Btw, nothing comes with rice or breads, so that needs to be ordered separately (which is fine, but be aware that these are indeed extras). Service was pretty non-existent. I don't care for overly attentive service, and just ask for the bare minimum. But Pickle service was in one word - missing. Service in this case just meant taking our orders and bringing the food we ordered to our table. Nothing else. If this was the general vibe of the establishment, I wouldn't even care to write this review. However, it seems as though some Pickle servers cherry pick who they choose to serve. The tables next to us received extremely attentive service while our water glasses took forever to be refilled, no one checked in, and our table was not promptly cleared (used wipes, empty bottles, cans) - in fact, we had to ask one server to help out with this and he grabbed only part of the trash and walked away before we even finished our sentence. We just chuckled at this point. We asked for the check with the meal unfinished. If we hadn't paid the $50 deposit, we wouldn't have even tried to stay for as long as we did. Unless you're coming to Dublin from a place that has TRULY lackluster Indian, Pickle may be a pass for a limited itinerary. Maybe it was an off night, or maybe our later night reservation was a cause? But should there even be an excuse? I think any pub with a pint would've been more worth our time! read more

Server : Kesav (A+)......very pleasant and warm. Everything was on point - coming from an Indian Culinary Family, we were all rather impressed.

Pickle is one of the best Indian restaurants I've ever visited. As usual, when I travel to another city I try to eat at the best Indian restaurant in town. From reviews, I inferred that Pickle was the place to go in Dublin. The restaurant is relatively small, but, cozy. The walls are filled with pictures of vintage India advertisements. As for the food, to start with we got the Crispy Potato Cakes Filled with Green Peas Cumin & Tamarind Chutney. These potato cakes are almost like samosas, but served differently. They were amazing and I highly recommend them. As a meal I got the Butter Chicken. I've never had Butter Chicken before, but I was happy I got it at Pickle. It was perfectly made and absolutely exceptional. My sister got the Cottage cheese in tomato sauce. I didn't try it, but she really enjoyed it. As a side we got the Tandoori Bread basket which had a variety of naan bread. The best was the garlic naan, but lets be real, they were all good. I love Pickle, and it's a shame I can't visit it over and over again. Whenever I am in Dublin again, I plan on making a stop there again. read more

Went because Eater said it was "the best Northern Indian food in the country". I immediately made a reservation after reading this, but was certainly skeptical at such a bold claim. Happy to report, though, that Pickle is some of the best Indian food I've ever had. Anywhere. The ambience is wonderful, the service attentive and friendly. Went for lunch and had the railway lamb curry and the goat keema pao. The food was creative, fresh and packed with flavor.

I had a pretty good dinner here with a group of friends. We ordered a ton of dishes to share family style. Both fish curries on the menu are totally worth ordering. The naan arrived piping hot and the wine selection was good. I definitely recommend this spot in your are in Dublin for any amount of time. The decor of the restaurant is very pretty. I don't eat goat curry, but my entire table was raving about the minced goat curry so definitely worth a order, if you like goat. Lastly the service was great. The kitchen was prompt to bring out the food and the waiters were all attentive to our needs. I would definitely come back if ever in the area again. read more

The service is still a little hit and miss but the food is the real star here and second time round it was even better. The stuffed potato cake was served with once of the best sauces I have eaten and the lamb bone marrow curry was tender and so flavorful.

To me this place is five stars all the way. We popped in for a work lunch - 12 of us altogether - and everything ran just like clockwork. There's nothing worse than going for a lunch with a lot of people and the service being slow and people stressing about getting back to work on time. Not so in Pickle - we were in and out within the hour, and that included starters and mains. There have been some comments on the price point of the food. I haven't been to dinner but the lunch is terrific value. I went for one of the Kashmiri Tiffin Box, which I guess you could describe as an Indian type bento box. It came with several bits and pieces - prawn curry, lentil curry, rice, a gorgeous fluffy naan, some spicey pickle, roast veg, and a lamb kebab. Phew! It came to 14 euro which is more than worth it in my eyes. Currently they just sell wine but are setting up a bar upstairs in anticipation of their full license, so I'd definitely go back for an evening meal and try the full package! read more

This is easily the best Indian restaurant I've been to in Dublin (and I'm a little sad that they weren't open when I lived in Ireland). I visited Pickle for dinner with a couple of my friends and had such a lovely meal. We ordered Butter Chicken, Kadai Paneer, and the Thali with lots of naan on the side. I loved my Butter Chicken, but ended up tasting my friends' meals and really liked theirs too. Pickle also has a great wine/beer menu and I ordered a Galway Hooker which went really well with Indian flavors. To finish off, we shared a Falooda which was just right. I'd love to be back again soon when I'm in town. read more
