I haven't been, but The French Table is close by and is reputed to be lovely.

Fair point Cookiemunster!

Haven't eaten there before though - can you recommend?

Thanks timesnewroman, will check that out ;-)

Freddies bistro and brimstone are a short enough walk away. The clarion across the road has food and then you have Dolans itself. Bobby Byrnes does lovely food too and is also a short enough walk.

TBH it's a 3 or 4 years since I was last in there, but I've never heard anything bad.

La Picola Italia isn't far and is good. There's also Thai Gourmet too just up from there. Once you go past the Garda station there isn't much after that bar chippers and a Dominos which is probably not what you want.

They do a mean stew, but anything that I have had there has been scrum-diddly-umptious!

I would recommend Brimstone. Fantastic food and reasonably priced too.

Unfortunately I cannot say the same, tried it twice, food was average at best and service was one of the worst I've ever experienced.

Only been there once myself and I thought the food was fantastic, albeit we were waiting a little longer than expected for the starters.

Brimstone is okay. Takes a bit long to order at times... some people I know really like it. I think it's fine. Some of the stuff there is very good, others not so good.

Changed the menu recently?


I like the food in Dolans itself.

Haven't been in Brimstone since about Feb and was only in the once but found it average. It's not bad at all but not particularly brilliant. I live round the corner from it and even that wouldn't put it first on my list!

Never any complaints wwith anything I have eaten in Dolans.
Great quality wholesome food.

The food in Dolans was always decent enough, haven't eaten there in a few years now though. My own recommendation would be the Clarion hotel, the Asian food in there is quite decent and it's a lot less formal obviously than the French Table which is very good. Somebody mentioned Bobby Byrnes which I wouldn't have considered close to Dolans but when I thought of it it's actually only up the street, very good food in there.

The French Table on Steamboat Quay is very good, but it ain't cheap.
Depends what the occasion is, I guess ...and your budget!

I dont think Dolans food is good at all - Finnegans style food if you ask me. If i was in that area i would go to The French Table, La piccola or Freddys.

Had breakfast in Dolan's a few months back and it was rank. Seemed like it had been under the heat for an hour.
