I would like to review the food at this restaurant but they somehow managed to lose my reservation and were very unaccomodating about the whole situation. POOR, VERY POOR more

We ate in this nice restaurant and had a very good meal. The service is friendly and quick, no hanging around between courses. The standard of food is excellent, I never tasted anything like the lemon rice pudding. It was delicious. My husband thought that the portions were a bit on the small side and they are quite expensive, but... more

We noticed their street sign, and made our way upstairs to the quaint little dining room for our first breakfast in Ireland. They served us the most gorgeous representation of the traditional Irish breakfast. The girl serving was friendly and genuine, and when we noticed it was raining, she gave us an umbrella! Great experience, one of our big regrets... more

I visited the Pig's Ear on a friends recommendation and was absolutely blown away. What a city restaurant should be! Good food, great friendly service and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Some at my table thought it was a bit noisy but I thought it was perfect keeping in mind there was a big party next door. Dublin should have... more

My husband booked a reservation for us here for my birthday after reading the glowing reviews on Trip Advisor. Although I really wanted to like this place, I was slightly disappointed. The Pig's Ear gets some things right - a fresh seasonal menu and charming "in the know" neighborhood restaurant feel - but misses on a few points. I had... more

I am so glad I did my research on TripAdvisor and sought out this fantastic little gem of a restaurant. A really cosy restaurant with attentive staff and stunning food. Very reasonably priced with an imaginative menu using seasonal produce. A top choice! more

Originally looked here on TripAdvisor and then did some research on this - wasn't disappointed!! Lovely atmosphere, friendly, attentive staff, great central setting, nice varied menu. It was nice that our group of 4 didn't automatically have a service charge slapped on (de riguer it seems in Dublin) - so we left a tip. Would just say that everywhere, not... more

I had to wonder at the one negative review I read about The Pig's Ear. While visiting Dublin, we found this resturaunt, climbed the stairs, and all six in our party thoroughly enjoyed the lunch. We all had different dishes (except my daughter and I both had the Shepard's Pie), and all had nothing but praise for the food. Considering... more
