Nice spot in Dublin for a late lunch?

    Guys,
    Meeting my cousin in Dublin city centre(haven't seen her in 5 years) at around 3:30 for a late lunch.
    I commute to Dublin for work so not aware of good spots to eat.
    Can anyone recommend a nice restaurant.
    I was thinking of Rhodes on Abbey St.
    I'm interested in places between Grafton street and parnell square.
    Or should we just head to Temple Bar and 'find' a place we like there.
    Thanks
    JC

    That Enotca place in the Italian quarter, The Winding Stair, Elephant and Castle - they are all about 5 mins from Abbey St.

    Never been in Rhodes myself. Wouldn't mind trying either.

    It is the north side of the Millenium bridge - I think it is officially called Bloom's quarter? There are about 5 Italian shops/restaurants. Yer man Mick Wallace built it. http://www.dublinks.com/index.cfm/loc/5/pt/0/spid/8F3A50A8-5388-463C-B0E004661ABEFA38.htm

    There is an Enoteca in Inchicore too... But I'm not tellin where, cos it's getting harder to get a table in there! :D

    Fair fooks to him - The Enoteca places are savage! In Inchicore of all places too.. it's jammers every night of the week. And they have extended it to about triple the original size, and they still fill it.

    We met up in Temple Bar and ended up in Luigi Malones(nearest place).
    Nice food, good price and good service. Although there wasn't many people there, so lacking some athmosphere.
    Thanks for suggestions. I'll keep them in mind for future.
    There is a nice walk way through that Italian 'quarter' . I always stare in through the up-market "beanbag" shop and wonder how it exists-I've never seen any one bar staff in it!
