Lovely staff, food delicious and they could tell you all about each dish. Was a special meal for my first visit to Dublin, loved every minute. Fish to die for, I am sure their meat dishes would be just as lovely. Thoroughly recommend.
Not the usual linguine Alfredo and garlic pizza, nor the typical Templebar touristy attraction, that's an authentic Italian restaurant at its finest, it would be a 5 star rating also in Italy. Cousin made of traditional Italian ingredients combined with the lightest and contemporary style, there is no cream nor sauces to spoil the real freshness. I loved the selection of fish and seafood on display on the counter . Entertening the explanation of the staff on the best cooking options for each dish. Exhaustive the wine list. Elegant the overall atmosphere of the venue with a pleasant attention to details. Reasonable pricing. Balanced choice in the menu for fish and meat lovers. Looking forward to my next visit :)
Probably the best pasta in Dublin. We had an exquisite dinner with my wife. The staff is really nice and the place is lovely.
Loved this place. Excellent staff and service. Specials explained in detail and the food was just delicious. Only little but was that wine menu was not in English and hard to pick what u liked
It is our first visit to Dublin, we came in tonight on recommendation from a friend. Great suggestions from our server from the wine to the food. Delicious dishes and great service. Amazing selection of fresh fish and seafood.Hoping to make it back before we leave!
Great Italian seafood. Fresh as fresh can be. The days catch is displayed on ice and prepared to order. Loved the atmosphere and the wine. Ireland has amazing seafood! Tiramisu to end a great meal.
The staff were really polite, professional and welcoming. The food was really tasty and all freshly made. The manager got the perfect wine pairings and made our visit memorable for all the right reasons.
Excellent service, very attentive and knowledgeable waiter. Food was amazing and well presented. Made our wedding anniversary meal very special.
We just had an amazing dinner here. The food was superb, the service was excelent and the waiter recommendations were definitely worth hearing. My personal favorite: The tiramisu. Everyone at the table was saying we need to go back. And we will!
Fish at its best,
Italienische Küche wie sie in Italien nicht besser zu finden ist. Netter freundlicher Service, gute Weine und Fisch, wie er frischer nicht sein kann!!!

This nice restaurant is in the heart of temple bar. There is a very beautiful atmosphere and the waiters are professional. The price is a bit high but I suggest this place for the quality of the food. Very, very nice tonnarelli astice and cannolo siciliano.
ottimo, e solo pesce fresco. ottima accoglienza. servizio eccezionale. prezzi forse un po' alti, ma perdonabili per la qualita'. in altre parole sono rimasto soddisfatto. E' il classico miracolo italiano all'estero. Bravi ragazzi, avanti tutta!

Amazing little Italian. Staff were so pleasant and polite. Such a great atmosphere and located in the heart of Dublin. Best seafood in Dublin would 100% recommend this to anyone. P.s try the salt crusted fish.
Italian food is one of those things that pleases all, which can delight immensely, yet rarely delights in its common Irish form. An Italian restaurant is usually the safe, crowd-pleaser option, where even people who like "shteak and veg" will be satisfied. We have a huge amount of Italian restaurants in Dublin and in Ireland, but only a handful standout as offering something a bit more special. Especially when it comes to restaurants in the depths of Temple Bar, the most tourist-friendly spot in the country.
Went here awhile ago with friends. Ordered the caprese salad which was delicious and so beautifully presented. The staff was super friendly and they even recommended dishes for the main. For the main I ordered mushroom tagliatelle which was also delicious. The place is so cute and cosy would definitely go back.
This is one of best places to eat in Temple Bar. I've been here a couple of times with mum and the food is always cooked to perfection, the pesto gnocchi is delish!
Another one of my favourite italiens in Dublin; although since its been done up recently I've noticed a slight change in the atmosphere; but dont let that deter you from the wonderful food.
The food, to begin is amazing. Although, not your cheapest italien the food is authentic, fresh and home-made.
The wine recommendations from the staff are always spot on, since the waitors are all or mostly italien, they know exactly what wines would pair well with the dishes.
The cheese and meat board to begin is always a cert, and my go-to main course is always the prawns and spagetti.
A lovely spot for a birthday or special occassion as its pricey enough. However, Im dying to try their early bird/ lunch menu; prices and the dishes look amazing!

Luca De MarzioLove this hidden Italian restaurant in temple bar, was passing by and was drawn in by the DJ playing on a Wednesday night, the atmosphere was buzzing and can't wait to go back for food.
Amazing food really nice service. Have been there few times now and I can tell you nice drinks( spritz aperol) very italian :) very nice service and the most important really good fresh food. Don't miss out on fresh see food :) that they always have on special like DUBLIN bay prawns or seabass lobsters etc. place looks amazing after the renovations
A nice italian joint, reminded me of my days in Milan. The menu is also in italian and thus gives a very italian touch to the whole presentation. The food is alright, nothing spectacular but all in all a good place of you are missing Italy and want to have some nice pasta and insalata:)
Authentic Italian restaurant... Best quality ingredients mostly imported from Italy!
Very relaxing atmosphere great service and amazing wine list full of big Italian producers!
Top!

Temple Bar isn’t my all time favourite part of town I will admit – but there are a couple of places there that make it worth the visit… a nice cocktail or glass of wine in Vintage Cocktail Club, some great Italian food in Il Vicoletto or some top Indonesian cuisine in Chameleon. I recently discovered another little gem to add to that list – Caffe Italiano.
Tucked away on Crow Street, it’s a blink and you’ll miss it spot. I visited early on a Saturday afternoon so it was pretty quiet. It’s a small and casual spot but very cosy and with extremely welcoming and friendly staff. The hour or so I was there had a constant stream of Italians dropping by for food or coffee which is always a good sign!
I started with a bruschetta with Prosciutto, mozzarella and sundried tomatoes. It was about €7.50 and a very substantial portion size. After a few nights out on the trot and a serious carb craving, it really hit the spot!
For mains we chose 2 pasta dishes, a homemade tagliatelle with Italian sausage and fresh tomatoes and a delicious Carbonara. The pasta was super fresh with just the right amount of bite. At just over €10 they were again a good portion and very reasonably priced.
To finish off, a lovely cappucino in a cute little blue cup and saucer.
I LOVED the food here, like a little taste of Italy in the middle of Temple Bar.
