Historic location, below a museum; impeccable services as per expectation; menu is creative, a combination of exotic ingredients with a unique twist on preparation and combination. While there is no must-have to recommend, every course is a journey of its own.
Fine gastronomy with very well worked products.
The dishes are very well presented and served with a smile, the setting is pleasant and it is spacious.
Delicious food and wine! The mushroom amuse-bouche wasn't the nicest and the salad a bit plain. However the rest was absolutely fantastic and would definitely come back for more!
Food was amazing, service was amazing, and the ambiance and decor were fantastic too. I will definitely go back and would recommend it to anyone. We went for lunch, three courses for 39 which was great value. The atmosphere was fairly laid back (I was wearing jeans and a shirt). If you go, order an Irish coffee, they make it in front of you at the table.
Beautiful restaurant with professional, helpful staff. I have frequented this restaurant for some years, it never fails to please.
A very special place. Food amazing, staff know their stuff. Hope to visit again soon
Best meal I have had in last 5 years. It's not unusual to have a great appetizer, a great main course or a great dessert. But how often do you have all 3? Nice atmosphere and attentive service. Highly recommended.
One of the best dining experience in a while. Fresh ingredients, excellent and tasty dishes, friendly and polite stuff... Worth every cent and more...
Very good time spent
Inventive cuisine
High quality product
Impeccable service
O M Food ... Incredible... really just amazing... I'll dine on the memories of dining here for a long time to come. And I'll be back...
Top tip... try the white wine "Moment of Silence", Wellington, South Africa.
Food and wine was just fabulous and atmosphere was so relaxing and refreshing. We had reserved our special birthday and anniversary booth which made the evening more private and romantic. We went for tasting menu with matching wines. It was the best choice we could have made because wine matched food just perfectly, taste was so complementary and made food pop even more. I recommend everyone to try out the tasting menu as the food was just unreal. All my tasting buds were excited. Just amazing.
We always dine here whenever we are visiting Dublin. A bit expensive but worth every penny.
Absolutely delicious. Very friendly service, food to die for with perfect sized portions
Superb experience. Just keep room for dessert. Totally recommended!
The food and wine pairing were amazing. The value of the pairing is debatable, but no one else in my group wanted to try something new. While in Dublin it is definitely worth a visit.
Finest fine dining experience in Ireland barr none.
Gorgeous food, a symphony on a plate . Staff were incredibly kind, attentive and friendly . Great value for the sort of service and food that is provided . 10/10 would come again
This restaurant is fantastic for anyone who is looking to experience a Michelin Star meal. The staff and atmosphere is amazing and the price is very affordable for a Michelin rated restaurant.
Fabulous Tasting Menu at Chapter One Restaurant in Dublin. Go try it!
Fabulous restaurant and well deserving of their reputation. Already looking forward to our next visit.
Went to this restaurant at least 5 years ago. Remember thinking the food was very bland for a michelin star restaurant. Friendly staff. Beatiful views and decor
Excellent food, service and ambience. Recommend the Irish coffee
An explosion of flavours and service as if you are the only people in the restaurant. Spectacular, can't wait to return.
A superb dining experience from start to finish. Service was top notch, and the food outrageously good.
Went here for my girlfreinds birthday. good food and nice set up
Over from Cornwall for my 30th birthday, absolute food lovers. The service was undoubtedly faultless, polite, kind and curtious. The food along with the wine was second to none! The best 4 courses we have had the pleasure of eating. A small tour of the kitchen was the cherry on top. We even tried to book for the following evening.
Thank you very much.
My partner and I had been looking forward to visiting Chapter One after her son recommended we go.
From the moment you walk in you feel very welcome and there are plenty of staff to look after you. You are not rushed and feel you are the only guests in the restaurant.
We chose from the standard menu and all four courses were excellent. My partner enjoyed the correctly cooked and succulent fish and my lamb was tender and full of flavour.
We also had the coffee and petit fours which were excellent too.
Visiting Chapter One is for a special occasion as it is pricey; however, you will not be disappointed.
Excellent service. Absolute first class. Great evening
Great place for fancy food even if you're not into michelin restaurants.
If you want an eating experience, try the Chef's Table. It is expensive but not only do you get a chance to try the sampler menu and related wines, you also get to see the inner workings of the kitchen and how professional the chefs are. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, each course is deliciously described and explained. A great night made even better by Mirco, Jennifer and Danny. Certainly worth booking but there is quite a waiting list.
Lovely restaurant and very delicious flavours.
Nice place for a private dining.
Outstanding food, service and ambience. The best Dublin restaurant. The two and three course lunch menus are a great cost-effective way to enjoy fine dining.
Great food with cordial atmosphere for that special occasion
Pretty good. Tasty and unique flavorings.Highly recommend, definitely coming back.
Outstanding, down to earth cuisine complemented by a perfect wine selection. Sensational service and a relaxed atmosphere complete the experience. Most deserving star!
Great service, food is relly ok yet I feel, a bit overpriced.
Got mackeral soup and skate main. Both were amazing. Staff were extremely attentive and friendly. I've taken one star off for lack of wheelchair access. In this day and age there's no excuse for it.
There is nothing negative I can think about my experience.
I was slightly disappointed , expecting the wow factor. We went for the pre theatre menu , apart from the tiny flies that hovered over our table . Staff we polished and polite but the clock ticks 7:30 pm your out of there
We asked politely for a second bottle of wine but no they believed it would delay the table turnaround. Then our coats we had to search for. It's a rated eatery. the food yes it's top class it had to be for what you pay for.
It lacked the atmosphere of : we are the people who booked a table well in advance
We expect pampering and interaction with the staff to promote the food the taste the chef. There was no !!! . We look forward to seeing you again.
I can't say I will rush back .
It was to mechanical no personal touch .
Churn churn. We are people and human and expect to be treated better.
One of the best meals I've had in my life. The scallop and crab was amazing and the Irish beef somehow even better.
Possibly my experience was influenced by the level of expectation I had before I came. As I 'normal' member of the public we felt like we were processed through the place. Maybe this place is just for the well-known elites of dublin. Food-wise the starters and deserts were amazing... like fantastic but the main courses left something to be desired, the type of dish that you could probably have cooked better at home... and not had to drop 250 euro in the process!!!
don't think we'll be back, i doubt however that they miss us
Fantastic food. Great service and a rwal treat for lunch.
This is a fine-dining restaurant aimed at people who don't have much interest in food. Service is obsequious and not genuine. Food is terribly underwhelming - what other Michelin starred restaurant serves steak and chicken as courses? Embarrassing stuff really. The dessert looked like something that wouldn't have passed the preliminary, prefilming round of Bake Off. Just bad and tasted only of butter. Resting on their laurels and trading off their reputation - 350 that may as well have been flushed down the toilet.
Wonderful place food and staff. Virginia was wonderful lovely person, very good at her job lovely smile!
Our first time there but considering all the good reviews I was underwhelmed.
The ambience was pleasant and the food was well presented though it didn't deliver any "wow" factor.
The most surprising element of re-telling our experience was the amount of people who summed up their experience of Chapter One as "good but not great".
In short, they could definitely do better.
Would have given a 5 as food is very good, staff are excellent, however, one of the party asked for a glass of Chardonnay and on the bill this was e15 . I felt this was an exorbitant price for what was a small glass of wine
Amaizing experience! Service and food are on the top level! Will definitely be back
Interesting menu and lovely bold flavours. Service was exceptional, will certainly be back.
Chapter one. Ross lewis. Best restaurant experience in country. Says it all really. Lifetime experience.
Excellent venue, excellent food and wine, great staff. Expensive but worth it
The whole experience from the time we entered the restaurant was amazing. We were made to feel so special. The food was amazing and the staff were brilliant. I will definitely be going back here and I will be buying vouchers for family and friends
The early bird menu is great. Top class service. Would totally recommend.
We enjoyed the dinner, but not as much you should enjoy in Michelin star restaurant
My wife and I went here. One of the best restaurants I've eaten at. Staff is very professional and helpful. Highly recommended
A part of 5 girls [women] had just the most wonderful time yesterday in Chapter 1. Martin and all the staff could not possibly have done more for us.The food was wonderful, the service super, super friendly. Martin even led us all around Parnell Square and hailed taxis for us.
We will be back!!!!
Great day out.

We had a wonderful time at this restaurant, the food is exceptional, the staff are so professional and informative. This is a wonderful experience to be put on everybody s bucket list.
Made a reservation for single guest on the day of. Omfg this place honestly deserves 2 Michelin stars in terms of both food and service... but I believe that they only received 1 because not all the staff is entirely on the same page.. one waitress failed to explain anything in one of the dishes that were served... she only stated the name of the dish and walked away :/ if service and staff knowledge was impeccable this place honestly deserves two stars. I really can t pick a fault in either the food or the wine pairing. I haven t been this impressed with a restaurant since Per Se.. and I ve been to a plethora of Michelin starred restaurants ever since. Definitely a MUST VISIT restaurant if you re in Dublin let alone Ireland.
PS: petit four isn't four small dessert bites as I usually receive. I only received one- chocolate ganache which is to DIE for no exaggeration intended.
Clearly the best restaurant in Dublin with its exquisite menu and dishes. A gem.
It is special. It ticks all the boxes. All are treated with the same courtesy and wonderful service. The food is treated with great care and attention and is fabulous. Worth every cent. Go.
Absolutely fabulous food and brilliant staff a really great place to eat
Ate here for the first time last week and was more than happy. food was great and the wait staff was a pleasure. Would give 6 stars if i could. We will be back
Lovely setting, delicious food and fantastic service. Neighbourhood not as attractive...
Excellent.
Great food. Very friendly service that gave them the 5th star.
Go for the Irish coffee at the end.
For our second year anniversary, we wanted something really nice aside hotel restaurant so we asked friends who recommended Chapter one. Made the reservation and checked the menu online(which i usually do, if there is an opportunity).
Oh my goodness, the food was great and the customer service was fantastic.I cant remember what i ordered for but i love it.
Very good food, upmarket atmosphere, great service.
Almost perfect.
Modern restaurant, service was more than excellent.
With regards to the main I didn't appreciate the association with the pudding.
Amazing food. Absolute perfection from the food to the drinks Great value for a Michelin Star restaurant
