Years ago, i spent a day in dublin with my mom. We lived far and rurally and travelled to spend the day in the city and go back home. we stumbled across this place completely randomly while looking for a place to have an authentic italian pizza. It was the best pizza we had ever had up until that point, and since that point. My mom kept the receipt so she could remember where this place was, but she lost it, and forgot the name. We returned to dublin and searched for it, but because we had no idea of any street names or how we even got to this restaurant or the name, we couldn’t find it anywhere. we moved to dublin years later, we thought about this place ALL the time, constantly bringing up how it’s the best pizza we’ve ever had and the shop “mysteriously vanished” my mother found the receipt TODAY. all these years later, and we cried when we found this place. so dramatic! but it was one of our favorite memories and long time mysteries. i hope you guys will re open soon, so we can finally have the best pizza we’ve ever...
Read moreLocated on Dublin's Capel street Ristorante Romano is only a brief walk from the shopping district hubbub. As far as eateries go it appears somewhat unassuming and rather compact on the inside, but don't be deceived Romanos is like the venue that keeps giving.

For the mains we had pasta salmone and Pasta Il pollo, simply and beautifully done, served in portions that won't leave you begging. Personally If I could get the chicken cream sauce on tap... I'd buy it by the gallon. Simple. Rich. Delicious. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere welcoming, it may not be fancy pantsy but it is definitely worth...
Read moreWe decided to try Ristorante Romano. It's located on Caple street. The staff were friendly. I got a prawn Cocktail to start. It was very nice. My son had meatballs and spaghetti. But he didn't think they were cooked enough. He wanted more spaghetti too. My uncle had the Bruschetta for starters. He was surprised it was toasted. He also got spaghetti with pesto. But he didn't think there was enough pesto. For dessert we had a Banana Split. I thought it was refreshing. I also got a Cappuccino too. I thought the staff didn't take our orders properly. They seemed more preoccupied with the cleaning of the restaurant then the people in it. Overall the service wasn't great. I thought they could have been more attentive to their customers. Then they don't serve alcohol either. We asked for Liquors. But they don't have licence to...
