Di Luca — Restaurant in Dublin

Food was amazing here! Unfortunately our experience was not. There was a group of 6 of us and we were told by one of the waiters to be more quiet as there were complaints from another table that we were too loud. This is 7pm on a Friday night around the Christmas period. So it would wise not to come here with friends if you're looking to catch up and laugh together as the waiters will go out of their way to tell you to be quiet instead of politely telling the Karens and Kevins of the world that it is not really appropriate or reasonable to expect a group in a restaurant to be quiet just for them. It might be a good idea for the restaurant to reconsider allowing larger groups if they don't want people to be "loud".

Seriously underrated place, nobody I asked knew anything about it but it turned out to be brilliant all round.

I took my girlfriend here for her birthday and I reserved a spot beforehand over the phone and asked if they could sing happy birthday to my girlfriend at some point during the dinner.

They sang her happy birthday during dessert and she was almost crying with happiness.

Food was 10/10. They had one of the best starters I ever had in my life which was some starter with figs and cheese.
