We had a great time at dinner here. The food was fabulous and the wine waiting quite classic but with a few twists and going well with the food.
As other reviews mention, come here to enjoy your evening, not if you have plans afterwards. Service can be slightly slow, but we didn’t mind as it allowed us to have a break between courses and have a nice chat.
Our table was very much divided on which dish we preferred which speaks to the quality of the dishes throughout the evening.
I would definitely recommend a visit!

Everyone should go at least once time to meet! I loved the place, a little small but very well organized and clean! The service was excellent at all times, polite staff and always explained each dish, and also asked if everything was ok before removing the dish from the table, asked if we like the dish. About the meal I loved every detail, the mix and match of flavors was wonderful! I tried new things and also what I already knew I saw in a new way. It is very worth going and know and taste these dishes of wonderful quality.

Cosy and intimate restaurant, with a small gathering of tables. Overall the quality of the food was excellent, mainly focused on seafood and fish, desserts were a real treat. Service was friendly and discrete. Would recommend.

Great fine food. Everything was prepared skillfully, with beautiful presentation. The pacing was almost perfect, with only a long wait before the meat. Service was impeccable, but it was too formal for my taste; it's hard to relax when the staff is stiff.

Was expecting to be blown away but really wasn't. As it is two Michelin starred I was expecting great things but this would not have two stars if it was in London.
Several of the dishes were confused with flavour and texture and didn't work well.
There are two set menu options and we went for the larger menu with wine pairing - at over €600 it was eye wateringly expensive. I have no problem paying a lot of money for incredible food but this didn't feel good value for money.
There were some stand dishes including the turbot gnocchi that came as a side with the turbot dish.
The space doesn't have a lot of atmosphere as the room is split into several different levels and spaces so we could hear other diners but couldn't see them.
Wouldn't say it is worth the money for the experience you get

Clean and modern restaurant. Had the 4 course meal with a party of 5. Fantastic food and enjoyed all of it. There was a slight muckup when they served a vegetarian cavier and someone that doesn't take beef, tartar. We did inform them before ordering, but i believe it didn't get passed to all the staff that was serving us. However they quickly sorted it out and the rest of the dinner was a delight. The staff were very friendly and I would love to come back.
I am not usually a fan of foie gras, but their version was fantastic. Loved it, so creamy and full of flavour and balanced. Their lamb dish as well was very different, where we got lamb as well as brioche bread filled with lamb. It was very different having an additional bread piece to soak up the juices and sauce. Their chocolate dessert is probably the best dessert is probably the best I have ever had, and will be forever disappointed in future desserts that I eat.

Food was quite good. Tasting menu of 6 courses (115€) was very good, there was one course that missed the mark for me but otherwise the presentation and taste was exceptional. Oddly enough the real standout dishes for me were game and red meat, rather than the seafood which the menu clearly made a point of presenting.
Overall though a great meal. The staff were extremely friendly and pleasant, we had an earlier reservation so the place certainly wasn’t off the walls busy but by the time we left it was certainly starting to pickup.
As a final note I will say I think the presentation on these dishes is some of the best in Ireland, and there is a fantastic wine list.

Amazing as per usual! The staff are polite, courteous and always on hand if you need anything! The food though 😍 every bite is an explosion of beautiful flavours and the plate is set so decadently, it's actually art! Can't wait until we go back again!

Excellent sumptuous and interesting small dishes, with delicate flavours and textures. Great place if you like experimental food and trying new things, and a small cosy atmosphere. Recommended for a special occasion for a foodie.
Our group of 6 chose the 6 course menu and every dish had an interesting take in either ingredient combination or preparation (E.g. horseradish essentially made into little ice cream balls like dipping dots, Shropshire blue cheese made into a delicate honeycomb-like mesh as a topping to the pigeon breast). All the canapés were beautiful with the right amount of savoury kick to whet the appetite. The fois gras dish was light, with the sweetness and subtle tartness of the apple bringing out the umami richness of the tiny pieces of smoked eel. The scallop dish was good but I thought the scallops that night lacked flavour compared to other fresh scallops I've had before, but they had a wonderful mouthfeel. I also loved the cod dish as it was beautifully cooked and almost buttery (not overcooked like in many places) and paired well with the stronger earthy flavour of the other ingredients (mushrooms, cauliflower, roasted yeast).
Service was excellent. Efficient but not overbearing and not disruptive to our group's socialising efforts.

We had an amazing dinner at The Greenhouse. Even though it is one of the most expensive tasting menu in Dublin I think the experience was worth it and it was one of the best meals of the trip. Some of the dishes were really clever and well thought and all of them were super delicious.
I do have some criticism: The meal was a little too long, with too long of a break between some of the dishes. The second thing is the unnecessary use of gold leaves in a couple of dishes. I just do not understand it, it is very 10 years ago and do not add any prestige (for me it does just the opposite).
