    Every dish was completely nailed-on. Utterly delicious, adventurous and classy cooking, served by stylish, knowledgable, engaging and engaged staff. Cracking wine list - whites served from magnums?! Wonderful! I had heard from friends and colleagues that this was going to be good, and what had promised to be excellent was over-delivered on at every point. A seriously enjoyable and enjoyably serious experience!

    Hawksmoor Dublin is always a great dining experience. It’s my favorite steak place in Dublin. I like how they have all the daily available great steaks listed on a chalk board by size. The steaks and sides are wonderful. The service is great, and I like the upscale but relaxed environment there. I look forward to my return for another great dinner.

    Small space with great ambiance - right away feels like the sort of place that is well run and that pays attention to details. The food and drinks menus are both relatively small, and evidently carefully curated - offering a great selection without over complicating things. The staff were lovely, accommodating and friendly - I was lucky to be seated at the kitchen bar and watched the plates being put together. Everything is organised, calm but highly efficient - and the results are absolutely delicious! I hope to be able to return on a future visit to Dublin
