Had a lovely lunch here on Sunday. It is such a beautiful little courtyard, and a real suntrap when the sun did eventually come out!
The food was fabulous - particular mention for the desserts - the Basque cheesecake is divine!
And we were looked after really well by Charlie - thank you so much. A lovely spot to celebrate my birthday.
Tiny little restaurant in a courtyard attached to a bigger restaurant next door. They don't seem separate but they are, even though the food looks like it comes from the same place.
At times you feel like your eating outside and the grown-ups are in a different room. Water running down a small gutter by the back door is also an uncomfortable feeling at times and the place lacks its own identity to the point the restaurant name isn't even on the receipt.
Having said all that, it's still a very trendy space, the service was excellent and the food was really good.
Toilets were beautifully maintained, the overall ambiance is excellent and I wouldn't put anyone off trying this place.
On a short visit to Dublin with my family, this was by far the best food we had all trip.
I had a sneaky brunch here with my husband last weekend. It was such a treat. The food was excellent and great portions. I had Tuna Tostadas which was the nicest I have had ever, a nice crisp perfectly cold Rose, and shared a beautiful Pavlova! A really special boujee brunch spot
