The space was cozy and so inviting. The waiter was very polite and happy, offering help with the menu. The food was amazing; bruschetta was fresh and the bread had the perfect amount of crispiness. Th ravioli of the day (venison) was delicious, but a very small portion; it should come with a side salad for the cost. The pizzas were delicious and a much better value for money. The mains are quite pricey. I would definitely return, but for pizza only.

Went on a date with my girlfriend to celebrate her birthday. Service was outstanding, food and drinks were great, and the restaurant itself was very picturesque. And all this for roughly €25-€30. Definitely a nice escape from Liffey Street.

So expensive for terrible food and everything was cold. The chicken supreme came down pink. For no sides it was 23euro for a breast of chicken and 5euro for a side of potatoes. My pizza was cold and bland. The burrata was cold and tasteless. So over priced. Don't go.

One particular waiter seems to think he’s working for a Michelin star chef; can’t make certain changes to a dish because the chef will be unhappy and it’s not how it’s done in Italy. Anyway, we finished drinks half way through meal but was never offered another drink by the 3 severs who visited our table and saw empty glasses, then had to hustle to get the bill. Microwave pasta would be better and pizza was undercooked. Go anywhere else.

A thoroughly enjoyable evening for all 4 diners. Food excellent, if a little limited on the Italian classics. I didn't have the pizza myself but everyone scoffed theirs. I don't think their twist on tiramisu worked but the macaroons were superb. And the place was absolutely jumping with people enjoying their Saturday night!

Early booking as we were going to an event. Staff were lovely. However our table was beside the stairway which wasn't very pleasant. All the pasta dishes were tomato based. When asked if we could have wine based sauce it was very basic, just some olive oil and basil.

Our group has visited an Italian restaurant on th eve of the Dublin Marathon for the last 25 years. This was the first time we had visited Wallace's Taverna. This was the best food we had encountered and was good value too. The staff were all friendly and there was a great atmosphere. Will be back next year!
