Back to Patrick Guilbaud Terrible My wife and I had dinner on April 17, 2008. For the first thirty minutes, we had good service. Then, it was terrible for the next two hours - the last half hour of which was us waiting for a check after we were done with desert (and out of water/wine). After twenty minutes of trying to get someones attention so we could leave, I was getting up to tell them to send the bill to my room if they ever got around to it(we were staying in the Merrion Hotel which houses this restaurant) when someone finally bothered to bring us our check (probably because I was looking very angry by then).

Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Jan 13 2008 Fabulous Lunch The venue is very modern and relaxing. diners are appropriately spaced out - i.e. you are not too close to each other. We had lunch on the 20th October and thoroughly enjoyed it. We are fortunate that we have excellent restaurants in our home city of Edinburgh but would be hard pushed to find anywhere better for lunch
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Oct 22 2007 Fabulous experience from start to finish I feel I must redress the balance of the previous bad review (which I am genuinely shocked and surprised at). I was very excited about dining at Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud, as it is widely recognised as Ireland's best (and only two Michelin-star) restaurant. I can only say that the entire experience from start to finish was fabulous, and we were made to feel very special.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Nov 20 2006 Absoloutley fantastic The food was amazing in every respect. From the presentation to the flavours, so well thought out and executed. I can see a third star on the horizon
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Nov 07 2006 The best! I was there for lunch in 2004 and for dinner in 2005 and both meals for wonderful. The staff was very helpful. The dinner was a surprise special occasion and the staff pulled it off flawlessly.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Feb 14 2006 AVOID PATRICK GUILBAUD'S Because of our love for great food, when we were in Dublin last November, we made reservations at purportedly the best restaurant in the city, Patrick Guilbauds.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Apr 16 2005 Superb in every way! Staff were very professional and all seem to be French which adds to the authenticity of the restaurant! The surroundings are beautiful which a very elegant atmosphere to the place. The very food is exquisite and while no doubt extremely expensive, in a way very good value for money when you consider all the extras (pre start appetisers/pre dinner snacks/after dinner mints etc)! If you can afford it (or better still get someone to pay!), quite simply - go there!!
