Reviews of Darwins Restaurant
J. T.
Every course was 5stars. Service was perfect and the food was phonomenal. Delicious tasting experience. Pork belly was to die for. Steak was juicey and tender cannot fault the quality of anything I have eaten tonight. Bravo!
G. G.
Absolutely lovely restaurant with amazing dishes. If you're a steak lover, you just have to come here and try them! I had fish and wild mushroom risotto, but everybody at my table ordered steaks, and even looking at them was delightful. Beautiful wines, beautiful desserts, beautiful dishes... And staff is so amazing and nice! Fully recommend!

They are gorgeous, the food is fantastic and the staff are always great and professional.
100% my favorite restaurant in Dublin 🍴😋!

I first went to Darwin’s with a group of approx 12 work buddies quite a few years ago. It was very good. As a result it became a favourite of all my family. A few years ago at Christmas while having drinks with another group I rang after 8pm on the off chance that we might get a table for 6. We did and got such a friendly welcome that since that time various members of our group have frequented this great spot with friends and family.
We went again a few days ago and, as usual, the lady who does Front of House was there making us laugh and making us welcome. We had a fabulous night with great drinks, fine food , lovely service and great fun. Highly recommended!!

Another gorgeous meal in Darwins. Our family went for a meal there and everything was perfect. The service was excellent and the food delicious. Everything felt safe and spaced out and there was a lovely Christmas atmosphere. Well done to all there we will be back!!
C. H.
Excellent restaurant we stumbled upon.in Dublin
We had our steak prepared "blue" as opposed "rare" upon the recommendation of the waiter. Excellent choice. Great wait staff. Interesting dining areas. Highly recommended
F. S.
Just finished a lovely meal from the pre theatre menu. Food was excellent, everything was so well cooked and very tasty. Lovely relaxed atmosphere and very friendly staff. We will definitely be back!
M. F. O.
Gorgeous food, fantastic service. So accommodating for our dietary requirements too. The pork belly and steaks were especially excellent. Many thanks.
S. S.
This restaurant surprised me and my boyfriend. We found and called many steakhouse but they didn't have any free tables, we were hungry and dispirited. When we decided to go back home, I made the last call to enquire any free table, which was to Darwins Restaurant.
so, we got there right after the call. The food was delicious and waiter was kind. We were very enjoyable . The T bone was huge and tasty and bouillabaisse was fresh. We both were agreed that the fried mushrooms and spinach with butter is the most delicious dish ever.
Will definitely come again!
M. M. C.
Great to see Darwins open again. Had a very tasty meal again served by very a friendly team. A real family business environment, looking forward to going back.
I’d recommend the Pork Belly and the Hake.
a. m.
Awesome steak, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable. All the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable and we definitely felt pampered when we left, out of pocket for €127 for some amazing sirloin, some wonderful rib-eye and great entree's accompanied by excellent whiskey sours and wines. I'm sure we'll be back.
R. D.
Brilliant vibe in the restaurant. Staff on top form and could handle our bunch of reprobates. Steaks are the best in town.Would highly recommend
B. C.
Porterhouse sharing steak was amazing. Good sides and sauces. Starters were only ok which is why 4 and not 5 stars.
A. T.
Went here end of January based on reviews. Did a last minute booking online and one of the few places that still had a table. The place did not disappoint. The steak was perfectly cooked to order. Had a huge t-bone that I could barely finish. Would recommend a light side of spinach with it. The starter of baby squid was very tasty too. Unfortunately had no room for dessert. Service was very professional and good too.
W. B.
The best restaurant I have ever been in and that is saying a lot seeing as I am in different establishments every day as a driver/guide in the tourist industry.
The staff are exceptional, the food is Devine.
Their own in house butcher where in the world would you get that.
A family run business by mother and daughter Dolores & Amy.
Specialises in excellent Vegetarian food.
When you are in Dublin be it on business or vacation you can not leave without visiting Darwins.
When you go back a second time and it is better than the first then you know you are on to a winner. You have to visit Darwin's.

Best dinner in Dublin! Omg very classic and clean meals don't waste your time looking for anything else this place is the one I totally recommend! My plate and service was first class thanks

Amazing. Amazing amazing. We had the black Angus beef and the famous lamb dish . Very high class cosy and little loud restaurant. We loved every part of everything, highly recommended if you like a good steak and professional service
E. A. G.
So fab! The staff were very attentive and the food was incredible! I had the fillet steak and it was cooked to perfection! Absolutely fab! The decor wasnt to my liking but everything else was fab 😍😘
h. l.
Steak and mash were phenomenal. Dessert looked lovely but I was too stuffed to eat it. Waiter was a bit narky, so unfortunately that put a bit of a dampener in the evening.
A. P. C.
good dish, good atmosphere and very friendly reception!
S. C.
Great hosts and super steak! Well done, Darwin's.
J. L.
Dinner in Dublin alone. Found this family-run restaurant with rave reviews and it amazed me really. 20 oz bone-in Irish Black Angus ribeye steak (but the bone was totally insignificant in size and weight), medium rare, fantastically cooked, served with red wine jus + buttered mash potatoes, perfect is just not enough for me to describe it. Blissful !!😋😌😍
J. B.
There's really not a bad thing that can be said about this restaurant. The staff are exceptional, polite, knowledgeable, friendly, but non-intrusive. The food is fantastic, great selection of wines, it's comfortable, and welcoming while also being relaxing. This is the best steak in Dublin by far, but also does amazing vegetarian food. Don't come to Dublin without eating here!
P. H.
Our first time at Darwins and it was well worth it! The service was warm and hospitable and the food absolutely excellent. When staff overheard we were celebrating a birthday, they brought us a candle and a round of drinks on the house. What a lovely touch!
c. k.
We went here as we couldn't get a booking anywhere else so was not our first choice . Food and service was excellent. Went again a couple of weeks later and it was just as good . Will definitely be back. We even got extra mash with our steaks as it was so good
F. N.
Quality food in a lovely atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful staff. A wonderful dining experience.
V. L.
Let me tell you about Darwins. My boyfriend and I stayed in Dublin recently and wanted to go to a nice restaurant on our last night and Darwins was the absolute TOP choice. I looked through so many places and this was the one that stuck with me. The fact that everything is locally sourced is so amazing and such a great aspect. Our server Arthur was so nice and funny and has such a wonderful personality. We met the owner, Delores, and she is just the best. She cares so much about the restaurant and the customers that come in and it shows. The food was amazing and the look and feel of the restuarant are so calming and warm. The price point of the food was amazing and we loved every moment of our time at Darwins. I watched the video on their site about how they source their food and it made a huge difference upon choosing this place. 10/10 would come again!
S. N. D.
Had a lovely evening last week in Darwins with a friend visiting from the US who is vegan. Darwins is famous for its steak but we were curious to try the vegan steak.. (Chickpeas and lentils based..). My vegan friend was so impressed. I could not believe it had no meat in it!! Loved the presentation of the dishes - top notch. Really quality food at very reasonable prices. Staff very attentive and friendly. Always a big plus in a city centre location. I'll be back.
A. E.
There is always a warm welcome at Darwins. The food is always delicious. They adhere to all the Covid19 guidelines and I feel very safe there. I particularly recommend the steak, best in town.
S. R.
Excellent experience last night. Table of 8 served by the excellent French assistant who made the birthday celebration very special. Food was outstanding and obviously a very hands on management as every staff member were warm and friendly. Would highly recommend.
p. O.
Was in Darwin’s last night for a very different staff night out
From the minute you walk in the door you can see the effort made by the Darwin’s team
Very safe and compliant in every way
The food amazing
Service amazing and overall a great night
Lovely owner who takes time to chat to you
The restaurant itself is a favourite of mine and it never disappoints
Wonderful
Well done - if you get the chance visit
d.
We have eaten at Darwin’s many times over the years. The food has always been of the highest quality. You feel welcome always . On more than one occasion Dolores has brought a drink on the house to the table . Indeed once she brought my wife on a small tour of the restaurant ... it is the small (but big) touches that keep us coming back time after time
C. K.
Absolutely gorgeous, would highly recommend, the homemade bread and dips were delicious, i particularly liked the pesto, I had the burger, very, very tasty, for dessert I had the banoffi, one of my favourite desserts, and it didn't disappoint, would definitely go again.
S. H.
Food was great and the staff were excellent. Our server overheard us making a little celebration to ourselves and surprised us with a complimentary dessert and Bailey's, it was a great touch and very unexpected.
S. D.
Excellent food. Had a small wedding party there recently and everyone was delighted with the food wine & service. Great t bone!
m. a.
Omg. I had the nicest steak here. 22 oz T-Bone steak cooked to absolute perfection. I also got to talk to the manager/owner who was super nice and chatty. I would recommend it 100%.
D. S.
Lovely atmosphere, great steaks and friendly staff. A booking is recommended as its very popular.
E. A. A.
I went there with my wife and we had a early bird dinner. The starters were ok, my wife had the mushroom risotto which could have a little more seasoning and I have the selection of breads, it came with three dips and some butter. For mains we both had surf and turf, the steaks were cooked perfectly as we order it was excellent. For desert we both had Eton mess, it was ok again, could have a little more merengue and less fruit. The environment is very old style and the staff is really nice. Overall an enjoyable experience. I recommend it.
R. N. H.
There's a reason that this place is touted as having one of the best steaks in Dublin.
Delicious cuts, well seasoned and perfectly cooked. Had the 20oz ribeye on the bone; it was perfectly balanced between firm, flavoursome flesh and melt-in-your-mouth marbling.
My date had their lamb rack, which was equally well prepared and had an absolutely gorgeous flavour.
Plenty of seafood and veggie options exist. They look great on paper but my only problem is that I can't get past the steaks!
The staff treated us exceptionally well, we were left wanting for nothing.
Overall it was a lovely evening; been to this place a few times over the years and it's wonderful to see them maintaining the high level of quality and service that sets them apart from the rest.
E. f.
Great food & service. Worth a visit.
K. B.
Food was amazing and the people are lovely. We came in early as they where setting up but they still looked after us. Got chatting to the owner (don't know till after) and was such a lovely women (sorry I forgot your name). 1st time in as we randomly found it on an app but 100% will be back soon. Can't say enough nice things about this place.
D. S.
Great steak, perfectly cooked. Good selection of wines. Nice decor of humans ancestors with little facts about them.
Gets very busy in the evening, so a booking is highly recommended
T. S.
We had a great time this evening. St. Patrick's Day was fun and the food was fantastic. The fillet, the lamb and the bone in steak was great. The meats were well done and the sides were outstanding. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
D. M.
I have been a fan of Darwin's for many years - its steak is absolutely fantastic (a moronic review on here claims that the fillet is the size of a rasher - completely untrue nonsense), yet its other choices never disappoint either - the bouillabaisse, the catch of the day, the risotto for starters, and the mouth-watering desserts, especially their chocolate brownie. An absolute joy of a restaurant and I wish it and its superb staff the very best in the decades of success ahead!
G. G.
Lovely staff, had late lunch Xmas set menu for €29. Starters & main were gorgeous but desserts all seemed to be frozen (like cash & carry type). All round good value & had a good wine selection.
A. Q.
One of Dublin's top tier steakhouses. The confluence of price and quality is great, and it's a real treat even for fussy eaters, as there is some flexibility to your meal, including choices of sides and sauces. As much as I am a ribeye sort of person, the New York strip here was great. A very pleasant place, accommodating, friendly, and easy to access. Perfect sort of spot to bring your father for his birthday or even a nice dinner date with your meat-eating partner.
T. R.
This is my favourite restaurant in the city bar none. The food here, especially the steak, is amazing! I eat here at least every 3 months and have yet to be disappointed. The staff are just brilliant and really go out of their way to make sure you're having the best meal possible. It's not just good food for meat eaters, vegetarian options are amazing as well! If you've not been to Darwins yet what are you doing, stop reading and book it now!!
T. S.
The service and food was good. The meat was a bit charred but otherwise good and the sides were excellent. My only problem is that I booked through First table, a website which splits your bill in half if you go to the restaurant on an off time. The restaurant was obviously aware of this, yet they saw us order from the pre theatre menu and didn't mention that the reduction was only on the a la carte menu. I think it was pretty obvious we went in mind of getting a discount so it was pretty disappointing that they didn't bother to mention this to us. They only said it when we got the bill.
o. s.
Went here for a birthday and it was a really nice restaurant, and I heard a lot of great things about it but unfortunately the steak was way too charred on the outside and it's all I could taste, I asked for medium so I'm surprised this was the case. Their sides like the potato purée, mushroom etc are delicious and the jus also, but I can't excuse he star of the show, the steak, being ruined.
N. D.
Great place for dinner and celebrations! :)
P. M.
Absolutely brilliant restaurant! Was able to handle our large booking for 55 with ease, food was delicious, service prompt, staff wonderful! Very well labelled allergies, those with said allergies were impressed!
Thank you Sandra and the whole team at Darwin’s!! Will definitely be back!!
D. G.
Booked Darwin's for a meal with family following our son's graduation last Friday. We had eaten here before and were delighted that the standards were as good as ever. Great service, great food and comfortable surroundings. Very impressed with front of house greeting on arrival and exit. Hope to be back again very soon.
T. B.
Lovely steak. Staff were really friendly. The owner was lovely, got us a table on a busy evening with no booking. Definitely recommend
G. R.
The food at Darwin’s is excellent, the environment is friendly and the staff are extremely welcoming. COVID precautions were fully implemented. Hope to visit again soon
C. M.
We arrived as a group of 7 and had a wonderful evening in Darwins last night. Food was excellent (as usual) and the service was brilliant. It's our 5th time back here - Darwins never disappoints!
G. B.
We had a fabulous meal there last night....yet again.This is an absolutely lovely Restaurant. The food is amazing (simple uncomplicated food cooked perfectly).The staff are extremely friendly and efficient and everything is overseen by the Manager,Dolores who is particularly attentive to all her guests. It is always a pleasure to eat here.
I. M.
Fantastic meal, amazing Steak and superb wine. The team serving us were brilliant. Loved the chat loved the food and loved the wine. I will be back, with many friends!
S. S.
Great quality food and drinks, very helpful and friendly staff. Highly recommended for steak lovers.
R. I.
Great steaks. Strongly recommend
e. g.
Great location, perfect ambiance and incredible food. Large family dinner and we enjoyed the impeccable service and perfectly prepared dishes. Great wine menu and fabulous desserts.
K. G.
Always great food with professional and friendly staff. The place is noted for its steak but there is a good variety of food on the menu including several excellent veggie and vegan options.
K. D.
Darwins is a fantastic restaurant! We always enjoy our time. Dolores and Amy are the epitomy of customer service along with the rest of their team! While being so welcoming they are also extremely professional. We have never had a bad night in Darwins and cannot recommend them enough! Darwins is a place to return to again and again. It's our favourite restaurant! X
E. M. P.
Excellent restaurant with great friendly helpful service, the food is delicious and a lovely wine selection, great for a romantic meal for two or a family celebration would highly recommend this restaurant.
R. S.
Very good steaks.
J. B.
Old world buzz, average age of the clientele is the same as the building. Steaks are okay, no need for default mash on the plate. If your stuck for somewhere, it's fine, don't expect too much!
T. M.
My steak was good, not great.
The service was okay but we had to keep asking for drinks, salt, butter, etc. and the place was too loud to have a decent conversation.
And the prices are too high.
Not a good choice for a Friday night.
A. D.
Darwins offers a very welcoming and safe environment to eat in during covid. It continues to meet the needs of people with different dietary requirements including coeliac. What makes this restaurant so special however, is the ambiance and super friendly and professional staff.
M. B.
So and so, had a steak which was ok, but nothing special. Wouldn't be my first choice to be honest, unless you're looking for an averagely priced steak dinner. Staff is friendly and service is good.
P. o.
We got a love greeting when we arrived and from then on everything was fabulous the food was v good. The staff brilliant and the atmosphere lovely all in all we had a very nice time and will be back next time I will have the T bone looked good
J. S.
Very good meat, would recommend the filet! One of the few places in Dublin where they know how to cook a steak (meaning that rare is rare not medium rare ^^). Service was impeccable, lovely evening!
F. O.
It had been far too long since I'd been to Darwin's, but the quality and service are still as great as ever. They just expanded their premises last week, so there's plenty of room for everyone.
Despite my own inability to read a menu properly (I blame the delicious Cosmopolitan), everything was perfect - my fillet steak was cooked perfectly, and was so large I needed help finishing it!
Still managed to make some room for the exquisite sticky toffee pudding with a poached pear and vanilla icecream.
J. D.
Always a pleasure to eat here. friendly staff, good atmosphere and the steaks are wonderful.
R. M.
Beautiful surroundings can I say querky🤗. Food was amazing . I have recommended Darwin's to all my friends when they stay in Dublin. Staff friendly and efficient . Best meal I have eaten in a long time - Top marks 👍
M. S.
We have eaten many times in Darwin's. It is a beautifully decorated restaurant in a very convenient location, close to George's Street, Grafton Street, Dame Street. Food is consistenly excellent, with very friendly & efficient service. The menu is very good & varied. The pre-theatre menu is particularly good value. The restaurant is run by a mother & daughter, Dolores & Amy. There is a lovely vibe among all the staff. We have been to Darwin's for many occasions, birthdays, work nights out, dinners for 2 etc. Every occasion was so enjoyable & memorable. I can heartily recommend Darwin's, a lovely place to escape to, after a busy day in work, or shopping!
R. O.
Effecient, not overly friendly staff. But that's OK because the food was really good. One will not be overtaxed by the menu. Just the right amount of good, wholesome choices and reasonably priced. I will return. Thank you all for a very enjoyable evening. 😊
N. M.
good food but honestly not as good as some of the meals we had at pubs. the atmosphere was nice but did not offset the price. the steaks were ok but not great, same with the seafood.
A. S.
Small enough menu but what's on it is done well. Expensive, though. A steak shouldn't cost €30!
Despite it not appearing on their website, they do have bottled craft beer as well as wine.
B. H.
This guys know their steak. Probably not as well known as the Butcher Grill, and not as high-end as Shanahan's, but for the money Darwin's offers one of the city's best beef eating experiences. Staff and service are spot on and the decor has improved since they moved from their old premises across the road on Aungier st.
K. R.
Went here for the first time last month and will defo return! Nice atmosphere and the food was amazing, best pork belly i have ever had! Highly recomend!!
D. T.
Outstanding! Very pleasant experience. If ever in Dublin and your looking for excellent steak, this is the place to go. Great staff and great environment.
B. M.
Was there for brunch. Lovely food. So full afterwards. Totally refurbished with lots more space. Looks great
J. P.
Calamari starter excellent. Steak was well cooked but the t-bone was smaller than I was expecting (it was on the menu as 22oz). Fillet steak nice.
T. G.
Very disappointed. Steak came out rare when we'll done was was ordered. Waiter blanked us when we tried to bring it to his attention. Would not recommend
S. H.
Steaks were a little disappointing on my last visit. I have been here before and they were amazing so was surprised with that. The service is good nice wine choices.
C. Q.
This Gem is our favourite place in the world to visit when we go to Dublin, Food is amazing- best steaks and they use organic products and locally soured!! Service is so welcoming and nothing is too much of an ask. Its beautiful inside and so cosy. First time we came across this place we were walking past very late one Christmas Saturday evening, it was freezing and having been refused everywhere else to eat due to not booking, we were new to Dublin, Darwin's opened their doors and couldn't have been more welcoming even though they were fully booked and got us a table with a bit of juggling, we were so grateful and impressed. But we do book since!
Once iv booked my hotel for Dublin- book here also. Pre-theatre menu is fab and prices are very good for Dublin. You will want to sit all evening here!
T. W.
Upscale feeling steakhouse with a few non-steak options. Uniquely offer to cook your steak 'blue'. The chicken dish was also quite decent.
J. R.
Service was good. The Pinot noir was amazing. The risotto was bland and the lamb was cooked according to the chef's recommendation and was chewy and luke warm. Maybe stick to the steaks....
I. O. K.
What a lil gem of a place, fantastic staff and the food was out of this world! Definitely a must for steak lovers. The T-bone was jaw dropping, cooked to perfection.
D. R.
All 4 of us had a wonderful culinary experience, a great night out, facilitated by the best maitre d in town, Dolores! I highly recommend Darwin's.
N. C.
Excellent - late lunch here, ie 3.00pm - with a group of 14, food excellent as were the staff. Highly recommend this Restaurant. Thank you.
P. M.
Delicious food, lovely surroundings. The staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely go again
D. S.
Very nice, quiet and very friendly staff. The food was nicely presented and was amazing! The prices are probably on the higher side but everything we ordered was well worth it.
D. d.
best of the best. friendly. fast. welcoming. this is the most charming place i know. thanks to the lovely team. you make our day everytime plain perfect.
the food is heavenly and if something does not suit you. just ask and they will politely make it your way if possible. perfect. cheers
V. S.
Absolutely fantastic as always 👌
J. I.
Amazing. The meal alone was more than worth it, but add the ambiance of artwork dedicated to Darwin's work and the meticulously hand crafted Beagle Room and it's the total dining package. The Beagle Room is a replica of the interior of Darwin's ship, the HMS Beagle.
Top it off with a friendly chat with Dolores, the maitre d (one of the owning family members) and her amazing staff. If you're not planning your next visit by the end of your meal, we can never be friends 😂
Thank you again Dolores,
Warm regards,
Joe from the States
I'll be back!!!
G. G.
Amazing restaurant, fab food. Love the welcome and athmosphere in Darwin's. Always a winner for me.

J. F.
Wonderful food with terrific selection including vegetarian. The venue is lovely, the staff helpful and, bearing in mind the quality, it's very good value for money.
O. K.
Good food, great personnel, nice interior but it was too crowded when I was there. I sat right in the path where the waiters walked and this made it slighlty uncomfortable. Otherwise excellent.
C. M.
Really enjoyed my meal here. Good atmosphere but that could be because we hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about.
M. M.
We had a wonderful night in Darwin's for our parents 60th anniversary food was amazing and the staff couldn't do enough for us
V. P.

For the quality of the food and service, I'm surprised it wasn't more expensive. Best steak I've ever had, and the starter I had (parmesan crisp with goat cheese mousse) was completely wonderful!
C. H.
Great steak, and the rest of the menu is nice too. A nice upmarket atmosphere - went here twice already with work colleagues.

Menu isn't exactly vast, a good selection of steaks, I had the lamb which was nice but a little on the over priced side in my opinion.

A little disappointed my hubby had mozzarella salad no salad with it ..one tomato....steak for two came out with big bone which we brought home 4 dog..at first the steak was juicy well 3/4 pieces where... 4 95 euros defo not worth money mash was lovely and onion rings but pepper sauce was bland and watery..ambience was lovely
Will not be back pity because previous reviews where the reason we went in the first place...
