Embassy Grill — Restaurant in Dublin

I ordered the burger & chips, my dinner companion ordered the chicken goujons & chips, and an Oreo milkshake. Their salads, believe it or not, are magnificent. Stuffed with veggies and coleslaw. Service was attentive, portions huge, comfy seats. The quality of the food is OK, not great but in light of the fact it's the only sit-down chipper in Ballsbridge that's open late, it's more than enough to compensate for its occasional slight blandness.

This is more like an American style diner than a restaurant. Personally I like the no-frills decor - you can easily imagine security guards, builders and elderly local men congregating here in groups over a fish and chip platter or a burger. It's a refreshing antidote to the stuffy arrogance in some of the nearby D4 eateries and hotels.

The coffee is actually better and they do serve dessert so if you're tired of overpriced Starbucks-like cafés, this may be ideal. They have clean and comfy loos. They also deliver on Just Eat but wouldn't bother with that as their food is best eaten fresh out...

Gave this place 1-star a few months ago, after I felt standards were too inconsistent and, in some cases, not as they used to be - with products missing items, sauces, or parts of orders etc.

That said things have become consistently good once more and, with that, I'm upgrading the review back to where it belongs.

Definitely one of the best places for takeaway-style food in Dublin. Might be a little bit pricier compared to others, but it's worth the extra cost - when it's done properly!

Update

Like most other places, Embassy should consider stapling the bags for delivery. An item was taken from my delivery yesterday and this is preventable if the bag is stapled beforehand. Only takes a few seconds and helps prevent item theft among Deliveroo drivers (which is known to...

Kebab kiddies checking in for quickie here Was expecting a lot of embassy workers in here due to the name, sadly just a lot of questionable characters wearing matching tracksuits, false advertising :/ Kebab itself was a mixed package as we're the efforts of John on the till tonight :( the meat held it's own and can't complain, chewy, flavorsome and hard to swallow, kind of reminded me of something. To compliment the large meat on offer, they kindly added some lovely sauce that just hit the back of your throat in exactly the right way. The veg itself was a nice added touch aswell, crispy and clean, which might help stave off the state my hole will be in the morning. In conclusion, solid kebab but watch out for John's antics if you...
