    My experience of this space (previously Solas) has always been that it gets too crowded and too loud to really enjoy. But last night we were seated upstairs (didn’t know it existed), and had a really fun evening. Food is excellent, if just a tad pricey for Irish pub food. Great drinks, attentive service, lovely atmosphere.

    Had a wonderful time at The Dubliner for our 2 year anniversary! We arrived 15 minutes earlier than our reservation and they had no difficulty seating us early at a table in the big bar-room. The Scotch Egg and Smoked Salmon with soda bread appetizers were delicious, as well as the Irish Coffee and Barrel Aged Fashioned. For main course drinks, another Irish Coffee and a neat pour of Glenlivet 12. When placing the entree order, our server Rachel noticed we had lunch menus and promptly switched them for dinner menus then gave us more time to decide. We decided on the Grilled Pork Chop and Sheperd's Pie, which were divine. Absolutely lovely first time at a new favorite spot, can't wait to be back. Special shout-out to Rachel, thanks for awesome service and a special dining experience!

    Food was really really good! They didn’t have enough staff. We went early like 4:45 on a Tuesday and the host was our waitress. That’s no problem, but we were waiting a while for our check after we were done eating.  would definitely recommend and would go back.
