Take a look at the VT Dublin restaurant tips and see what tickles your fancy - asking what is a good place to eat is very subjective - there is never a right answer :)

Acapolco Mexican Restaurant Tel : 016771085 on George Street (city centre) is really nice and reasonable. Try the deep fried ice cream, sounds wierd but it's lovely.
Also Shalamar Indian Restaurant Tel : 016710738 on George Street too. Bit above average cost but delicious. George Street has a good selection of restaurants so you are bound to find something you like if you go there and have a look around. Or Pad Thai in Portobello (15 min walk outside city centre) Tel : 014759308. Well they're my favorites anyway. Happy eating. Clo.

Hi
Chapter one restaurant is widely tipped to be one of the best - its off parnell sq. at the top of O`CÒNNELL ST , you can a good deal if you do a pre theater meal & get tickets for a play at the gate theater - just google both names for details of whats on & prices. CHAPTER ONE RESTAURANT Restaurant in Dublin City Centre Chapter One Restaurant 18/19 Parnell Square Dublin 1 Ireland . Tel: (+353) 01- 8732266 Fax: (+353) 01- 8732330 Web: Email: info@chapteronerestaurant.com Other restaurants - there are loads , a lot of the temple bar ones are not great so best to avoid , for casual try Cafe Bar Deli on Georges St. South Willian St & Clarendon St both run paralell to Grafton st & have great restaurants For top notch try this RESTAURANT PATRICK GUILBAUD Dublin City Restaurant - Two Michelin Stars Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud 21 Upper Merrion Street Dublin 2, Ireland Restaurant guide Is maith an t-anlann an t-ocras (Hunger is a tasty sauce.) Irish proverb There are scores of restaurants and other eateries in central Dublin; the list below is only a selection, mostly of places we (the local organisers) have been to. Note that smoking is banned in all indoor areas of all restaurants, cafes and pubs in Ireland. The prices are indicated by the number of € symbols: €: Cheap €€: Moderate €€€: Expensive €€€€: Very expensive Temple Bar Trastevere € Temple Bar Square New York Italian, one of the regular eateries of the local organisers. Botticelli € Temple Bar. Italian, more notable for its home-made ice cream than for anything else. Poco Loco € Parliament Street. Tex-Mex Monty's of Kathmandu €€ Eustace Street. Nepalese food Afsana € Temple Lane Cheap, no-frills Indian food The Chameleon €€€ Lower Fownes Street (off Temple Bar). Indonesian, good, expensive and very crowded - so you will need to book. Tante Zoe's €€ Crow Street Cajun food Hô Sen €€ Cope Street (behind the Central Bank on Dame Street) Vietnamese food, strongly recommended by the Irish Times. Not suitable for vegetarians. The Mongolian Barbecue €€ Cope Street Thai Orchid € Corner of Fleet Street and Westmoreland Street The Shack € Boxty House € Oliver St John Gogarty € Irish food, catering for tourists. South of Dame Street Yamamori €€ South Great George Street Almost acceptable Japanese food says Keisuke (aka Jimmy). Juice € South Great George Street. Vegetarian restaurant Jaipur €€€ South Great George Street Indian, very good, expensive. Govinda € Aungier Street (continuation of South Great George Street) Hare Krishna restaurant: cheap, vegetarian and quite tasteful Jewel in the Crown € William Street South Indian, almost as good as the takeaway in Smithfield (see below) Siam Thai € St. Andrew Street Salamanca € St. Andrew Street Tapas bar, recommendable. Larger than average portions for a tapas bar The Cedar Tree € St. Andrew Street Lebanese. Eat here every day says Waseem El Bahia €€ Corner Wicklow Street/Clarendon Street Moroccan, pretty good. Watch out for the belly dancer! Aya € Clarendon Street Japanese Tapas Bar: all you can eat in 55 minutes for 26 Euro (kaitenzushi) Rajdoot €€ Clarendon Street Indian. Good, slightly pricy Pasta Fresca € Chatham Street Another one of our regular eateries, approved by our Sicilian ex-postdoc. Wagamama € South King Street. Some things that resemble Japanese food, according to Keisuke. New Millennium € South King Street Chinese Café Bar Deli € South Great Georges Street and Bewley's, Grafton Street Popular, tasty, inexpensive. Mackerel €€ Bewley's, Grafton Street Good seafood, by the same people who run Café Bar Deli North of the Liffey Ristorante Romano € -- very good ****** Capel Street A good, friendly, reasonably priced pizzeria using organic flour. The interior features bicycle pictures hanging on every wall. Baritalia € Millennium Walkway, Ormond Quay Part of the new, trendy "Italian quarter" on the north side of the Millennium Bridge. Booking essential since it is nearly always full. Enoteca delle Langhe € -- very good ****** Millenium Walkway Another very popular Italian eatery in this quarter. Featured in the Irish Times 100 best restaurants in Ireland. Radha Govinda € Middle Abbey Street (off O'Connell Street) Hare Krishna restaurant: cheap, vegetarian and quite tasteful Beshoff's Fish and Chips € O'Connell Street Dublin's second most famous fish and chips restaurant 101 Talbot €€ 101 Talbot Street Highly recommendable, featured in the Irish Times top 100 restaurants list Alilang Korea € Parnell Street east Korean food. Service can be erratic if you are a big crowd ordering different dishes: barbecue and bo bim bop are safe bets for larger groups Namaste India € North King Street, Smithfield If you are visiting Jameson's distillery or going for a live music session and beer in Cobblestone, get a takeaway from this place. The taste of the food puts most of the Indian restaurants in Dublin to shame (except the naan bread, which is not so great) South and southeast of Trinity College Dunne & Crescenzi € South Frederick Street Enoteca, very close to Trinity College. Also serves lunch. You may have to wait to get a table here. Samsara € Dawson Street More an opulent bar than a restaurant, but you can get fairly good Thai food here to a reasonable price. There is a restaurant downstairs in the same building, but it is quite pricy. Jacob's Ladder €€€ Nassau Street Continental/Irish Tulsi €€ 17A Lower Baggot Street Good food, overhelpful staff. TK's €€ Baggot Street Possibly the best Thai restaurant in Dublin L'Ecrivain €€€ Lower Baggot Street One star in the Michelin guide Patrick Guilbaud €€€€€€ Merrion Hotel, 21 Upper Merrion Street Dublin's grandest and greatest restaurant, with two stars in the Michelin guide Is fearr a bheith ag lorg bí ná goile. (Looking for food is preferable to looking for an appetite.) Irish proverb

Hi Dorrian - there is no need to copy out big chunks of text - the poster can find it online if you just provide a link to the same info. :)
