Lovely food but service was terribly slow. Desert menus were dropped and no one came back to take our orders for 25 minutes. The staff are lovely. Another thing, upstairs when they seat you at the windows, it’s so drafty, make sure you have your coat with you.

One of our favorite Dublin meals. Excellent alternative to Irish traditional food (which was also generally excellent). Wallace's food stood its ground with the fine Italian food we experienced the 3 weeks prior...in Italy.

Starter platter was delicious and we would definitely order again. One pizza was cold, mine was fine however. One prosecco seemed very flat and we asked to have it replaced (which was done) one waiter (ours) seemed to be doing all the work!
