    It was “ok”. I’ve been there several times because the food normally is great but this time wasn’t great I think was too expensive for what they used to be.

    I really don’t understand why some restaurants just do not acknowledge you when you arrive. Several staff members saw us and simply ignored us - Is it not respectful to even say “ We’l be with you in a moment”? Terrible service and the smallest/more expensive coffee I’ve had in Dublin lately

    Absolutely loved our visit to Carluccio's. Pasta dishes were incredible and the staff were brilliant. Very attentive and super nice. Really nice atmosphere and I think it will be fabulously cosy to visit in autumn. Ideal location in Dublin. Look forward to returning 😊

    This restaurant appears to be authentic Italian. We ordered a starter of calmari to share, it was fine. I ordered the beef ragu with pappardelle pasta. Good portion size, lacked richness in taste. My husband ordered the seafood linguine and he was also under whelmed. We ordered desserts of panna cotta and ice cream. Both were very nice. We also ordered a bottle of Argentinian Malbec which was excellent and a good price too. I would return as the prices are reasonable and service is good.

    Had a lovely brunch with my sister. Ordered avocado, smoked salmon and poached eggs. Loved that they had a deal with eggs and signature dishes. Loved the food and all and will definitely come back again.

    Great food, left feeling full and satisfied. Felt as though the waiter kept trying to upsell and add things we didn't want to the order which slightly put us off. Other than that a good experience

    Everything was perfect apart from the temperature of one or two of our dishes. We complained about them. The dishes were taken back and unfortunately came back Luke warm. However, they dealt with it very impressively and we had a great experience and a fantastic family reunion. Thanks again. We will be back

    Long Live Carluccios! This is a really pleasant place to have Lynch or dinner. Excellent staff, lovely ambience, very 'Italian'. However, this Italian chain needs to remember that its not on Capri or in Positano and that its prices are a little inflated for what is average Italian cuisine annd a very average glass of wine! All Irish restaurants are pitching prices higher at present and I do understand that costs have escalated. The reason to go to Carluccios is for a taste of Italy and its delicious pastas. I wish they'd reinstate gnocchi though, and perhaps add a biscoti to their excellent coffee. These sweeteners make a difference. But long live Carluccios, I still love it.
