Myself and my family made a booking on Saturday for Saturday evening, (which I was surprised to get…read morea booking at such late notice) We arrived and was given a table at the back corner, we ordered drinks and food Our starters arrived, which were nice, but then waited 10 to 15 minutes before r plates where cleared when the mains came My husband had ordered a ribeye steak €32. It was bland and quite fatty for a ribeye No one came to check our table And he ended up, just putting garlic mayo on top with the sauce that was on his plate to give us some sort of taste. My daughter got a tagliatelle which was very smoky Yet again, nobody checked the table. It was probably another 10 to 15 minutes for our plates to b cleared The waitress asked was everything okay my husband said about the steak been bland and fatty also my daughters dish was only 1/2 eaten .....she apologised and that was that !!!!!! Yet again we waited about 15 mins B4 I had to call over the manageress to ask for the bill ( we hadn't even been offered dessert menu and we were out celebrating a bday which I'd have said if we were offers dessert) I told her that the service had been really poor and she shrugged her shoulders and said sorry when the bill came It was €192 and my husband put €200 in the wallet and went to get the car. The girl took the wallet and never returned the €8. We were leaving it for a tip, even though I don't think it was deserved, but we weren't given an option as wallet wasn't returned to table I emailed the restaurant on my return home and received a phone call from the manageress the following evening She explained that they were very busy which I had said was great However, that wasn't my problem. We were paying guests also there was 3/4 tables free around us so they weren't really that busy, but when I said that she said they had been busy from 12 o'clock that day yet again, not my problem and then she went onto say cause of were we were seated they They tend not to see us !!!! I had booked for myself and my parents and sisters to go there for Christmas lunch in 2 days time and in my email I had sent I said I wanted to cancel the booking and on the phone call the manageress ask me, would I come in and allow For the staff to attend to us better than they had done on the Saturday night and I said absolutely no way. Unfortunately Mc Goverins has lost its magic and I could tell one from been able to get a booking two hours before our arranged reservation and two there was tables on the Saturday night before Christmas tables available around us when we were having a meal and when we were leaving. For this reason, I will most definitely will not be back to Mc Governs

Even if you don't go for the early bird, the menu isn't expensive and they cater for everyone.

I got the blue cheese burger with chunky chips and fresh garlic mayo on the side.. This was a task and a half to eat it but was so good I didn't want to leave any.

Ate here a while ago, and forgot to complete my review. It is a bit outdated, but still helpful to…read moresome I hope. The Greenhouse seems to be the "it" restaurant in Dublin at the moment. There has been much fanfare with the opening of the restaurant, and its chef, Mikael Viljanen. Although only opened for several months, many are anticipating a Michelin Star from The Greenhouse. Unfortunately, The Greenhouse did not get a Michelin start this year, but they are definitely headed in the right direction. Chef Viljanen is very creative and many of the dishes have a molecular gastronomy spin on them. The restaurant is extremely small, only 40 seats. Eating at The Greenhouse is more of an experience, so they won't rush you out the door trying to turn over tables. With all of the recent publicity, trying to get a reservation isn't easy at the last minute. It is suggested that reservations be made at least one week in advance. I was fortunate to get a lunch reservation. I had tried to walk-in the night before, but there were no openings and the kitchen was closing. We decided to eat at One Pico instead and the General Manager there, Andrew, called The Greenhouse to see if they could squeeze us in the following day. He was able to get a lunch reservation, and the General Manager, David O'Brien, from The Greenhouse even came over to One Pico to introduce himself and said he was looking forward to us eating there the following day. We ordered the Chef's Choice Five Course Tasting Menu. The meal started off with an amuse bouche of a maitake mushroom cream puff. A perfectly light and crunchy cream puff shell encasing, a rich earthy filling of mushrooms. The first course was foie gras, royale and frozen, green apple and candied nuts. This dish is a grab bag of flavors, textures and temperatures. Pairing the earthy and velvety foie gras with the tartness of green apples, and the sweet crunchiness of nuts will keep your taste buds dancing and wanting more. The second course was a Jerusalem artichoke veloute with truffle oil. The soup is silky smooth. The truffle oil adds some richness and earthiness to the dish. A very well balanced course. The third course was cod, smoked mussels and cauliflower puree with hazelnut oil. The cod was cooked to perfection. Still slightly translucent in the middle, the delicate flavor rose right to the top. The smoked mussels were tender and did not overpower the cod. The cauliflower puree added some earthiness to the dish. A great way to start the meal. The fourth course was venison, pumpkin puree, roasted shallots and bacon. The venison was a perfect medium rare. The roasted shallots added some sweetness to the dish. The pumpkin puree added some earthiness, while the bacon added some saltiness and a textural contrast. The meal ended with a dessert of chocolate, carmelized onions, with sorbet and a mousse like dish, and milk solid crisps. The dish just did not work for me. The sorbet and mousse was strange to have as a dessert and was rather tart. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the name of the ingredient and lost my notes, but it is something that is usually associated with savory dishes rather than desserts. To me it did not pair well with the chocolate. The menu at The Greenhouse is very ambitious and creative, but certainly in the right hands with Chef Viljanen at the helm.

The flavours were amazing with tastes to suit all.....but the icing on the cake is W.O.W......Wine on Wednesdays. You get to bring your own bottle of wine and there is no corkage fee.....this is a great way to save money and still be able to eat in style!! The only down side to this is the possibility of over indulgence which ensures hangovers the next day! Definitely a must!!

Also to top it all some other customers who ordered the same thing after us received and ate their meals before we were even able to get ours. I would never want any of my friends to experience this since it tainted my experience in Ireland - avoid if you can :)

My blood was boiling. I tried to sit at the table long enough because I wanted to read those employees and manager for filth but after 25 minutes of patiently waiting and not a soul acknowledging I was there, I left.
