The Irish House Party — Restaurant in Dublin

Visited on Feb 2nd 2023 with two upper secondary classes from Denmark to mark the end of our visit to Ireland prior to flying home the next day. I asked one of my classes to review the experience, and here is what they had to say: Daria and Julie said, "This was an amazing experience! We had a lot of fun.The food was delicious. We had the opportunity to try traditional Irish food, which was a great way of experiencing more of the Irish culture.The performance had immense energy, and they were great at incorporating us in the audience; we felt a part of the show. We will definitely recommend this experience if you want to experience and learn more about Irish music and dance." Damien and Mathias: "What a great experience we had! We had a very good evening with good food and great vibes from the staff. The only issue we had was that the food could’ve been served in larger portions because a couple of us were still a bit hungry afterwards. The performers put on a great show of Irish music, culture, and dance, with some comedic elements in between. It was all in all a good experience, and we would recommend anyone checking it out." Jonas and Alex: "The waiters were always available if you needed something which was great. The rooms we were dining in were very pretty, clean and it had a very Irish vibe about them. There was enough space to fit all of us around the tables, so it wasn’t cramped. The food itself tasted very nice, althoughthe portion sizes were on the smaller side. The basement where the show took place was very cozy and it had a nice vibe. Again, there was enough space for all of us. The show itself was very entertaining and comedic. We don’t normally listen to Irish folk music, but this was very enjoyable even for us. Overall, a nice place with nice and friendly people who performed a great show and gave good service to our group." Andrew and Rasmus A: "A very lovely hotel with a nice selection of good dishes and a lovely dessert. The performance downstairs was impressive, and we thoroughly enjoyed the music and dancing, which was a wonderful experience. Not only that, it was also a cultural experience, from which we learned a lot about the Irish culture, and the musical instruments of the island! Marvellous experience that we would definitely try again." Smilla and Signe: "The Irish House Party was a very interesting experience. First of all, the food was delightful and it was a good thing that it was possible to choose between a couple different dishes. The music and Irish dancing were a very entertaining experience. The music was beautiful to listen to and the dancing was impressive and very well executed. It was fun to be included and learn how to dance together as a group. Overall it was a great experience, with pleasant and funny hosts." Celie and Stefan: "Great food and a good atmosphere. The show that was after dinner was fantastic. You couldn’t help but smile and clap along to the songs." Raghu and Rasmus V: "The experience at the Irish house party was splendid, we thoroughly enjoyed the food and the accommodations. The show was an incredibly joyous experience, and we loved the musical instruments used by the performers. It was an unforgettable experience, and we especially loved the interactions between the audience and the performers. The dancing was also marvelous (especially the one with...

Over the top entertaining! By far, the BEST VALUE for the price of any excursion we have taken in decades! Whether you go as a group or on your own, this venue values you! The employees are exceptional, attentive, and accommodating. We loved the pub cellar before the show, a great atmosphere. Comfortable, clean and relaxing. Dinner was next and I must say, I was not expecting the quality or quantity of food that arrived at our table. We have eaten a lot of salmon in our days, BUT THIS WAS THE BEST SALMON WE HAVE EVER EATEN, NO LIE! Simply out of the world! People around us also complimented the Guinness Beef stew as having been the best they had eaten. The Quality was simply outrageos, we tip our hat to the chef! Lastly, but certainly not least was the Irish House Party band. I have been to several venues and listened to Irish bands for over 40 years, but this was by far unique and so entertaining. My comment to the band was " you have a comedy show with a concert and dance show that breakout in the middle of your session". They are entertaining when they talk and play! These 4 musicians put on a show so absolutey entertaining. Each musician and the solo dancer is an accomplished world -renowned and genuinely talented performer. This was a major highlight on our stay in Dublin. Don't miss it! You will walk away with memories that will keep you smiling! Save cash money to buy their CDs after the ...

We went there for my father's birthday for dinner and the show, and we weren't disappointed! Our reservation got lost (along with some others), which led to a bit longer wait to be seated until they added a new table, but it was fine.

The dinner was ok, nothing extraordinary. The set menu usually includes 3 starters, 4-5 mains and 2 types of dessert. The portions are decently sized, although the beef stew could have been a bit bigger (I've had bigger portions in some pubs) and the food is very good.

The show was really nice, and the band is really good. They crack jokes most of the time and take turns explaining the history of Irish music and its instruments. The dancing part was really nice (and there's quite a lot of dancing) although it would be much better if there was also some dancing in pairs/groups, not only a single dancer.

All in all, I would suggest this show to friends and family who want a nice night out, with good food and...
