    This was the best gluten free pasta dish I’ve had in Dublin!! The prawns were so fresh and the entire meal was delicious! We also enjoyed the burrata salad. I’ll be back!

    We went for dinner for my 30th and had an amazing experience, food was fresh and gorgeous with attentive staff in a location not only close to 3olympia but a naturalist venue that really complimented the scene!

    Good food and very good service. Wine list is limited to medium body. It was Saturday night so it was fully booked and noisy.
