In town visiting from the US and came across this restaurant. It was well worth the crazy taxi ride across town. We had the charred broccoli with the chimichurri sauce and OH MY, it was really good. We each ordered a pizza and they were very, very good pizzas. I had the salami Napoli, but changed it up a bit with mushrooms instead of chili peppers and added arugula(rocket) after it baked. It was so good. So good. My friend had the Revolution and really enjoyed the variety of meats. Good wines and nice owner that we chatted with. If we are ever back in the area, we will definitely be back. OH, and the server was very sweet. read more

The Revolution is here and it is happening right now! I have so many good things to say about this place I don't even know where to begin. Maybe if I break it down into sections it'll help: - Staff 11/10 - Decor and ambience 12/10 - Food 13/10 Eating at The Revolution is like eating at your best friends house, except the food is ten times better. I felt so comfortable being there, from the naturally warmed room due to the open pizza oven to the funky selection of music, my visit was a good one. I met Paul there, the owner, and he could not have been more helpful. It was obvious he knew the menu inside out and was able to rattle off some great info about what accompanying beers would suit my food choice. I know this sounds cliché but I honestly couldn't choose from the menu because there was so much I wanted. In the end (after a few games of rock paper scissors with myself) I decided to get a main course AND a 'big bite' which looked, in terms of portion size, like something between a starter and a main which I thought was a really cool idea. You could choose from this list if you were a bit hungry but not starving. I was starving though so I ordered the mac & cheese with smoked chorizo. Sweet merciful jesus it was one of the nicest things I've ever eaten. Thinking about it now makes me want to throw my laptop on the floor and sprint back for another taste. For main I ordered a pizza with caramelized onions, bbq dressing and pulled pork. Yes you might read pulled pork and say in a whiny voice 'oh wow pulled pork, how original', well it was. Just like you and everyone else, I've had my fair share of pulled pork over the last year but this stuff was beyond tasty. I'd almost ring them up and get them to change the menu to 'super special pulled pork' as it would be more apt. As you can probably tell by now I enjoyed the pizza a lot. I also thought it was a really nice touch that you could see the chef making the pizza from scratch and cooking it right in front of you. For busier times there's even a cool bar counter area right in front of the stone oven pizza with high stools where you can watch the dishes being created, almost like a live episode of Masterchef (but with better chefs and food). I've been there and I've been back and I'll go back again. This is what a real revolution looks like. read more

Very nice pizza place in Rathgar. We came in because there was a fire at Monelli's & Coman's. The place is very clean, and the staff is quite friendly. The owner Paul is quite accommodating. I had a salad and the mac & cheese. Loved it. My husband ordered a fire baked pizza and he said it was very good. They offer beer, wine, and dessert. We look forward to going back read more

Butter. Scotch. Pudding. Got that? Good. I could go on forever telling you of the wonderfully friendly staff, the pop-up like surroundings or the great atmosphere. I could tell you about the wonderful pulled pork sliders I had, nearly toppling over had it not been for the wooden steak holding their contents together. Or even the gorgeous taco's we had for €4 each on Taco Tuesday (recommended!), three each and we still probably could have had another. No, let me instead tell you of the most beautiful desert I have ever had....the butterscotch pudding. A three-hit combo of pudding/ice cream (maple, I think) and hot chocolate sauce that feels like so sugary, so bad...but so right.... I dream of going back there simply for the desert. You should go, simply for the desert. Whenever the wind blows, I will hear the name: Butterscotch Pudding. read more

So it might not be fair to rate a restaurant based on their delivery food but pizza should be the one exception, right? I ordered food from here a few weeks ago and was really excited based on the reviews and the number of interesting pizzas available. My wild boar pizza arrived hot and looked amazing. However, there was something missing. Perhaps it needed more pizza sauce or a bit of salt but overall it was quite bland. Given that there aren't a huge number of tasty pizza delivery places nearby I might give them another try, but this first experience did not impress. read more

The Revolution - Wild boar pizza - Pizza Near Me - Rathgar, D

I have only eaten the food from here as a takeaway from deliveroo but it was very impressive! (Also, about 25 mins for a delivery, unreal?!) Slightly on the expensive side for a takeaway, which is why I have docked a star, but the pizza and truffle chips were to die for! Would love to try the restaurant itself, it's always busy enough whenever I pass by! UPDATE: went for dinner here about a month ago and have decided to up to a 5 star. Everything was perfect, the service, food, drink selection, setting, comfort. Would highly recommend. Myself and my brothers had pizza while my dad had the fish tacos, which looked unreal. read more

We used to be regulars here! It's such a cozy, lovely little place. Parking is tricky in the area but once you find a spot it's easy to walk everywhere. It's quite small, but we've never had to wait too long. Once, we had to sit at the counter and it was a bit cramped but didn't detract too much from the experience. I've tried the Classic (tomato, basil, and mozzarella) which is always delicious, and the Big V without mushrooms and goat cheese (leaving tomatoes, peppers, onion, mozzarella and lemon pesto sauce). Everything is always really amazing- the cheese isn't dry and semi-warm but actually so dynamic- that's a weird description for cheese but I feel like it encapsulates the feeling. On one occasion I had the Toasted Sunflower salad, which was nice and zesty. We've also tried several beers that have been great- they switch up the menu so they don't usually have the same types. We once tried a Belgian one (I can't remember the names, unfortunately!) that our server recommended and it was great! We've always been too full for dessert but I'm looking forward to trying the butterscotch pudding. The service is top notch, everyone we've encountered has been very lovely and talkative. Prices are very decent for quality and service. The only negative in my view is the slight lack of space, but it's not any big deal. read more

The Revolution was exactly the kind of restaurant my friends and I needed after a long day of exploring Dublin. Besides having excellent food, one of the best things about The Revolution is that fact that you feel right at home as soon as you walk in the door. The owners, Paul and Kristin, are so friendly and accommodating, and their staff is extremely knowledgable about the entire menu as well as the extensive and diverse beer list - not your average run of the mill kinds of beers, either! Even though we were tourists in Dublin, we felt right at home. And the food! Our table of 6 shared quite a few plates, which I would highly recommend because everything is so unique and delicious. We started with: - pan fried calamari - expertly fried (crisp but not overdone), super fresh tasting - chorizo mac & cheese - a nice spin on a classic; perfect warm, cheesy comfort food for the rainy evening - slow cooked chicken wings - we got the buffalo version, which were JUST spicy enough; a great pair with a cold beer or two... For pizzas, we split the Local, the Big V and the Basil Fawlty. All had excellent crust, soft on the inside and crispy on the outside - perfected California style stone baked pizzas. The toppings were plentiful. My personal favorite was the Local, though we were a split table between all three. I know we had dessert, I think the chocolate espresso cake, but I can't remember because I had already fallen into a deep, blissful food coma. I do remember not wanting to share, though. read more

Honestly I don't have any bad thing to say about the place. Waiters are absolutely lovely and are very good when it comes to recommend a beer to go with your food. They have loads of IPAs and other beers. They do small bites like sliders, chicken wings, fries. Bigger bites like tacos, macncheese and pizzas. I went for the chicken wings which were tender and delicious. My friend went for the portobello mushroom and I got jealous as it was so well presented on the plate. I then had the special which was spicy lamb tacos with mint sauce, served with beans and rice. The meat was cooked perfectly. My friend got the stirloin steak taco and said the same thing about the meat. Highly recommend the place - think about booking a table though. read more

Delicious food- small and sweet. Hidden gem in rathgar. Seems like the owners are there every night which I like to see. Small venue so make sure to make an appointment- esp for groups. The revolution pizza is yummy!! Definitely be back again. read more

Bottomless Mimosas are the best and so is their wild board Mac and Cheese. Will and have recommend it to everyone going to Dublin. Can't wait to go back. read more

A complete rip-off, grilled cheese - €9 for toast, bread, cheese and a few chips. Luke warm cappuccino in a tiny cups for €3. Server was rude and obnoxious when asked anything. Avoid this place at all cost. If I could give it minus stars I would. read more

Excellent restaurant - cannot recommend highly enough. Food: There were four of us. Starters were all excellent, with the chicken wings and the calamari coming in joint first, followed by a delicious sliders and very good portobello mushrooms. Mains - The pizzas were superb - great base and very good sauce - they are reason alone to come to this restaurant. They had a chicken burger as a special that they should really add to the menu full-time as it was delicious. Desserts - we were all too full for desserts but we did order a bottle of a caffeine type beer (13% alcohol) and we shared it as a dessert. Beers - a large selection of craft beers but none of them really blew me away. The wine was good and good value too. Will definitely be back -quite a small restaurant and a huge number of people were turned away on the night so bookings essential for weekends. There are seats at the bar too. read more

This place is fantastic, staff are friendly and attentive and one of the best pizzas in Dublin

After having less than stellar food in Trim days prior, getting a real pie and a good salad here was truly a welcome change. Small, local vibe - perfect for a pint and pie cooked in a real pizza oven. read more

Best California style wood fired pizza I've had since I left there (Bay Area) 12 months ago, to return back to Dublin after many years there. Dined alone, sat at counter and received a great welcome from Kristin and Paul who'd never laid eyes on me. They have customer service down and know how to welcome and receive guests with a view to guests actually wanting to come back for more great welcomes and awesome pizza. Had the BIG V (veggie pizza), it was to die for:)! As I was dining alone they offered me the option of a smaller pizza (9' v 12') and it was so good I ate every last piece. Kudos to the Chef, Arianno (sp?), he know's how to make beautiful pizza. I can't recommend this place enough. Long may awesome pizza, made with quality, beautiful, fresh ingredients, served up with a large dose of friendly customer service last in Rathgar. Keep up the great work, Paul and Kristin, and the lads and ladies working to keep Rathgar customers pizza happy. read more

Just had the breakfast burritos and bottomless mimosas at brunch. Everything was amazing and tasty especially the friendly and attentive staff. Would highly recommend! read more

Went there for pizzas as we really like the previous pizza place (Manifestino) that was in the same place hoping the quality would be similar. The restaurant looks cozy and they have a fairly good beer and wine selection. However, we really did not enjoy the experience and will not be back. The service was rubbish (there is a reason for the section system in restaurants). They forgot our starter. The manager took our drinks off our bill to make up for this but they must have apologized half a dozen times or more; we got it after the 2nd time. The pizza was crap; doughy crust, cheap mozzarella and tomato sauce and the topping were not up to scratch in either quality or quantity. I would have forgive the rest if the pizza was good but it just wasn't. read more

Poor service, priority given to delivery orders. Food was cold and mushy when arrived. Overpriced.

I have twice rang ahead for pizza for collection from here and both times they have only started cooking when I have got there. This most recent occasion I gave them 45 minutes notice but still they couldn't manage to do it. Having an order ready when a time is agreed is important. I won't be back read more

Finally made it here last night after looking in the window for months! We were there just after opening at 6 so very quiet at that time. Waiters were great and were happy to recommend beers and menu items. We had the calamari and the pork sliders to start. Both were excellent. Shared a spicy pizza which was plenty for us. Top class pizza. I changed to wine with the main and again the waiters recommendation was spot on. Highly recommend, looking forward to going back read more

My husband and I came into Revolution for the first time today and we were so impressed by every level of service - calling for a reservation last minute, the amazing service as we made our selection (with recommendations from the waiter), and the quality of the food. I'd specifically like to mention our server, Todd, who went above and beyond for us. We will definitely be frequent visitors because of his amazing charisma. read more
