                                  If you want to break away from the pubs and have a five star experience, go to Rosa Madre. The owner served us. He was from Italy and truly had a passion for your dining experience. The meals were pleasing to the eye, well proportioned, fresh and absolutely delicious. The best meal we ate in the city. And its just off Temple Bar so quite for dinner but then lots of fun and play after dinner. I can’t recommend it enough.

                                  We had a fabulous meal, food was excellent, service and staff went above and beyond. We shared the scallop and crab starters, both delicious. Mains we had clam spaghettoni and truffle spaghettoni, pasta perfectly cooked and both yum 😋. Tiramisu to share and finished off with two cocktails that were divine. Definitely returning to this gem of a restaurant, rustic with a wonderful atmosphere.

                                  This was a random choice when we were on vacation in Dublin and it turned out to be awesome! I luckily made a reservation not knowing and would never have got in on a Thursday evening without one. The vibe is very East Coast USA small Italian Eatery! White tablecloths, they speak English to you and argue with each other in Italian. Good wine list from $50-$3000! I had the Octopus Appetizer and their seafood ravioli! Both were excellent!!! Not inexpensive but very much a delicious meal and excellent experience!
