    Service was good when we arrived and it was very busy, but as the place emptied out it was difficult to find a waiter. The food was not of the standard expected with three of the 5 diner

    We had a wonderful meal both nights of our lovely stay here. The food was delicious, and the service was fantastic. I also had the best Eapresso Martini I have ever tasted! Colette is a wonderful manager and looked after us so well, as did all the waitresses too.

    This is my favourite restaurant in Dublin as it always welcomes me and my guests, happily and attentively looks after us and the cuisine can not be surpassed. There is always something desirable for each guest on the menu, and their fish is always fresh and finest quality. The dining areas are so spacious and during COVID we were able to enjoy our lunches outside without getting wet and staying warm. I would enjoy Gleesons at least once a week, with different family members or friends. I can happily avail of their restrooms as they are kept in the highest level of cleanliness, to me this is so important. The staff are the best group one could find and make each of our visits memorable. I’ll be back! Thank you all in Gleesons, and I am looking forward to my next visit very shortly. Sincerely, Katherine

    I ordered an egg Mayo sandwich which was basic to say the very least. There is not much you can do with an egg Mayo but this was an open sandwich with a scraping is egg Mayo and a tiny serving of coleslaw on the side. Most uninspiring and unattractive and tasted of very little.

    The food here I have found to be always good. The tempura prawn is excellent either as a starter or a mains. The staff are first class but depending on the evening they. Seem to be understaffed at times. However, this is a real gem of a place

    We are longtime regulars in Gleesons. However, we haven't eaten there for several months and we were anticipating the same type of food that had been our longtime experience - ie: a convenient pleasant place to be fed with familiar friendly and attentive staff. In light of our experience of Tuesday 6th December, Gleesons Restaurant has moved up into a different realm altogether. The menu is both varied and interesting and the quality of our food was very good - fish, steak and pork dishes all well cooked and presented and attention from staff was as good as ever! The upgraded decor, {plus the super Christmas decorations} and table new table lay out is to be commended and Gleeson's tremendous longterm success and popularity is absolutely deserved. We will look forward to being back very soon! Many thank to everyone at Gleesons!

    Overall enjoyed the lunch. The only negative aspect was that the glass of white wine was too cold as if it came from a very cold fridge and the glass itself was frosting up. Had to heat up the glass and cool down the wine with my hands before drinking it.
