    Have eaten in Carluccio’s a number of times over the years and it never disappoints. Our waiter has worked there he said for 18 years and served us on past occasions. He was delighted we remembered him. The food here is stunning, the ambience is amazing and we love the location, it’s perfect.

    Our group agreed the food and drinks were good and the pricing was very reasonable - location is great. We were hosting colleagues who had travelled from US that week and were excited to experience dining together in Ireland. While still eating a main course we were asked if we wanted any desserts, tea or coffee because they close at 9pm, to which we declined- feeling rushed. We were finishing our drinks and were approached to finish up because they were closing. It all felt too rushed and was a negative experience for us and our guests. There was also a lot of noisy banging beside our table at one point as a staff member loudly threw cutlery into something. Overall it wasn't the best experience.

    Pluses: Cosy, warm, clean. Food was fresh. Minuses: I would not say that it is minus, but it gives you the idea of the level of the place. For example they proposed to choose ketchup or mayo for burger. Why not to bring both? Burger was without any. After starter they took all dirty cutlery from the dirty plates and put on the dirty napkins for the main dish. Which was very weird. There were five of us and all of us were very confused. Tips are included before you decide how much to give. I always leave tips. But to push me to do it was also weird.
