    I can’t quite put into words what my visit to Bang was like. They truly delivered the full experience of tasting the very best that Iberian cuisine has to offer. For a moment, I completely forgot I was in Dublin and felt as though I was enjoying some of the best food Spain has. Mussel escabeche, Arroz Cebolla and Wild Brill were personally my favorites!!! The signature cocktails were a real highlight. A huge thank you to Altea and the entire front of house for their warm hospitality, and to Chef Nico for the incredible food. An unforgettable experience and I can’t wait to come back!

    Very good Italian food. I had the beef lasagna, and my husband had the spaghetti bolognese. Both dishes came out hot and delicious. Would go back here if in Dublin again.

    Incredible! The food here was amazing every dish had an amazing flavour and beautifully presented. We were there celebrating my partner’s birthday, and the staff brought out a dessert with "Happy Birthday" written on it and did not charge for it. It was such a cute, thoughtful touch that made their afternoon so special. Thank you for the wonderful food and the fantastic hospitality! We’ll definitely be back.
