I came here for afternoon tea and I was wonderfully surprised!…read more You're taken to the upstairs of the coach house where amongst quirky tea cups, vintage jewelry and dubious taxidermy you're served one of the most innovative afternoon teas you can get your hands on in Dublin!! Very friendly waiting staff and lovely surroundings but the combination of the above and the creative savories and treats make this place a real gem which is a serious value for money spot! Look forward to the salmon cones and the boiled egg. My favourite dessert had to be the homemade Jaffa cakes. Definitely give it a go!!!

Went here yesterday for a family lunch, there was 25 of us I believe…read more It was a nice meal, I had a terrine to start, which was nice, but could have used a bit more seasoning or some sort of "kick" in it. The beef for my main was great, with a lovely bit of gravy. The potatoes and veg were really nicely prepared, and the addition of some fresh herbs in the potatoes and the pine nuts in the veg really worked and made everything just that little bit tastier. The only thing that let me down was the dessert. I had the lemon tart and while nicely executed (nicely done crust, good tart texture) it was overly sweet. There was a wee bit of ice cream which I suspect was homemade, it was super creamy and tasty, but again, just overly sweet. The overall effect was a bit "cloying". Great space, relaxed, service for our large group was excellent. Afterwards we all sat outside in the lovely garden and had a visit. All in all a good place to go for a group.

OK, I've been here twice recently. Once with the other half and once to catch up with three friends…read moreand both times for the early bird/special deals. I haven't been to the one in town so I can't compare but I have to say I really enjoyed both meals. The service at the front desk is very friendly and, like Bronagh, I would agree that our waiter could have been friendlier, I think they just very busy on the nights I was there and were not unfriendly, just efficient. I enjoyed the menu, although it seemed a little limited but that's the risk with a special menu and everyone I ate with enjoyed their meals. There are a few deals with 2 courses for 2 with wine that are also a nice offer if you want to cap your spend as well.

Large group for a family celebration. 2.30 on a Thursday afternoon so we had the place pretty much…read moreto ourselves. Great selection of starters and mains to suit all tastes. I had the chorizo and fish bisque starter which was pretty insipid. The liquid was more watery than it should have been with a few sad strips if chorizo and some chunky pieces of fish. Tasteless. Main was a burger which, with all the trimmings was quite good. Our host had chosen an excellent Sauvignon Blanc so absolutely no pain was felt. All in all, not bad and a more enjoyable alternative to work.

Went to the restaurant atop Harvey Nichols for lunch. They have a great summer special on where you…read moreget 2 courses and a glass of wine for 22 euro. The food is 4 star worthy---I had a great braised lamb shoulder for my main and a really amazing carrot cake for dessert---yeah high end carrot cake, who knew! The desserts in particular were really well presented on these glossy slate boards. I did knock it down 1 star for painfully slow service. For such a high-end place the service was simply not up to par. Sorry but an hour and a half for lunch in a shopping centre is simply too long. To the waiter's credit, he did give us each a free glass of wine and coffee to make up for the delays. Tip---worth a browse through the expensive (alright very expensive) food hall just next to the entrance---some great finds there...

Dundrum Town Centre is a place that I often frequent and while I am usually disappointed by what's…read moreon offer food wise (see other review on the disastrous Frangos) this sleek café has proved to be a shining beacon. Located at the rear of the centre, it is on the precipice of the Pembroke District, a wonderful setting on a warm summers evening. The cafe sits just beside the main entrance to the upmarket store and is nestled neatly beneath the HN restaurant, all encased in glass. The cafè is surprisingly spacious, yet compact and stylish. The kitchen is visible, something I always favour and the dining area is not cramped but relatively comfortable. They've recently disposed of the meretricious multicoloured chairs and replaced them with sturdier and more comfortable seats, albeit they are a little clinical and insipid. Fortunately the same cannot be said about the food on offer. The menu is fairly extensive ranging from soups and sandwiches to the more fulfilling burger or fish and chips, all with the midis HN touch. Personally, I'd recommend the club sandwich, though at €12.95 one may struggle to find justification in paying such an extortionate amount. Portion over extortion for me, as well as being mammoth in scale, it's fraught with excellent quality ingredients. One of the most important things for me when dining in such a facility as this, is the quality of the coffee and once again it doesn't disappoint. The reason being that they use their own Harvey Nichols beans, subsequently sold in the shop above the cafè adjoining the restaurant, which are superb, even if a little weak for my taste. The staff are wonderfully genial as is the atmosphere. The only thing that sullies this cafè is the price of the food. But remember, this is Harvey Nichols, what did you expect? So I shan't throw stones in this glass house, it's too damn good.

It suits Wild Lily's not to be situated in the heart of Dublin City Centre, a place where often the…read morecharisma of the once most treasured eateries can become disorientated in the tough context of the city's hustle and bustle. Instead it can be rightfully found in the South county suburb of Rathmines, a more settled, modish district south of the city flurry. Within this milieu the overall French-boudoir chic that they're going for, upholstered rich purple velvet iron chairs and quintessentially English glass and steel cake-stands flourish instead of being trounced by the city burger giants. Downstairs only seats 2 small tables and you could be forgiven as a passer by for thinking that it was simply a take-away bakery but once you ascend the stairs you enter a whole different milieu that is jam-packed with oodles of dark wooden tables, black-painted floorboards that beautifully compliment the dark purple upholstery, dog-eared looking mahogany cabinets to maintain the flawed French chic theme and waiting staff doing their utmost to keep up with the large contingency of customers baying for their attention so they can lay their hands on all of the mouthwatering offerings as soon as possible. The modest conservatory looking out over a wrought-iron terrace with gravel would be my preferred place to relax with a pot of breakfast tea. Myself and a friend visited this rather enthralling little eatery on three occasions for brunch, and separately for tea and to experience the scrumptious cakes on offer - I opted for the delectably moist and plentiful chocolate cake which featured the captivating tag-line, 'as Grandma made' (scones and cookies are also too frequently commented upon as being utterly yummy). Brunch was a wholesome delight, having both gone for the Full Irish we were treated to substantially-sized ceramic plates of the full works, upon arrival on one of the occasions we were rather ravenous to say the least after a big one the night before and the waitress kindly gave us extra toast free of charge. Wild Lily's has since acquired a very well thought-of reputation as a charming bistro after 6pm serving such gems as seared scallops, roast chicken supreme with roast Mediterranean vegetables & basil mash (approx €13.50), seabass, fillet steak with portobello mushrooms and potato gratin as well as the succulent tastes of foie gras with figs. Whatever your requirements, whether it be a gentle hot chocolate and luscious chocolate chip brownie in the afternoon or a more considerable evening meal this really is one of the most charismatic havens you will happen upon in Dublin's fair town.

As annoying of an adjective as many people find it, I have to say that Wild Lily's is cute! Eating…read morethere is a bit like eating in a wealthier aunt's house that is warm and welcoming, but also has some fancy touches. With the main bulk of the seating upstairs you feel like you're in a converted house, but it works. It's definitely a nice place you could take your mom for breakfast or go on a nice, quite romantic date. I only went here for breakfast, but the food was delicious and well-portioned. I ordered my eggs scrambled and wasn't disappointed, as in some places in Dublin finding scrambled eggs is as rare is finding that Leprechaun at the end of the rainbow with his big pot of gold! I can't really comment on the service as it was someone I knew from my building and they of course treated us beautifully. I haven't stopped in for the dinner, but it's a bit pricier, but has still received high reviews from those who have tried it out. It's definitely worth a look if you want to get away from rat race and have a nice relaxing meal in a comfortable environment.
