The food is good the service is good. Over priced. The menu used to have a lunch option now it is just a la carte. €90 lunch for two is too much. At those prices there are better places in dublin

We hunted it out as it advertised Dublin Bay prawns, but there weren’t any when we got there. How ever, the friendly waitress assured us a seafood platter could be assembled to share, including prawns and crab claws. As always with these meals, it is...a balance between top quality flavour, and actually getting to the meat. A bowl for the shells would have helped. The ambience is very much tucked in a back street. Nevertheless it was worthwhileMore
Claimed to be open online but was closed on arrival. The Old Storehouse next door was excellent compensation ; no oysters but tasty muscles, fine beer and live music.
Klaw is a great little spot in the Temple Bar area. A tiny spot, but so good. My wife and I enjoyed a variety of seafood dishes and they were really good and fresh! The oysters were my favorite, a great selection to choose from....Plus, you can leave a fun message on the wall.More
Delicious crab toast, fish soup, and lobster rolls. Superb service. Friendly atmosphere. Chef was friendly and appreciated our appreciation of his food! Lovely waitstaff. Will come again!
Klaw was so amazing! Everything was delicious.The perfect place to have the freshest oysters and wine (bummed that we just barely missed happy hour). I don't remember the names of the other dishes we got, but they were also damn good. And best of all,...Giovanna and Carlos were just the best and the nicest human beings, and they made our Klaw experience that much better. When I'm back in Ireland, I'll definitely be making a stop at Klaw!More
Went here for lunch to try the oysters. They were probably the best I've ever had. Nice spot.They also do bloody marys, which is good to know.
Where to begin... perhaps the ingredients started off okay! The ambiance, well not really quaint or interesting or even bijous, more bordering on the squalid for me - probably due a visit from the health inspector. As for the service, I saw 2 plates of...food wait for what must have been 5 mins while the service was talking on the phone, and it went downhill from there! Might have been a hard day but that's not really what it's about. As for the food, seafood linguine with seasonal seafood, or what happens to be left over - mussels and a prawn (actually 2!) with too much over salted cream and a dash of .... paprika? Rarely have I been so disappointed. My recommendation, don't waste your money or your time!More
Hi Richard, I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience at Klaw. Could you tell me what day and roughly what time you visited and I'll look into it. Brian
By recommendation I found this tiny restaurant A personal restaurant with a kitchen in the dining area or dining area in the kitchen. 😊
I don't think I ever read so many reviews before visiting place and I have to agree with most of them from Terrible to Excellent. You will enjoy that place if you set up your mind that you are going to Fish shack and not...restaurant, so be ready for very small crowded place, where front door is not closing properly and you will eat with plastic forks and knives. As I understood most people going there for oysters, but as we both are not big fan of them, our goal was lobster. For starter we had Tuna tacos and Lobster and Prawns for Main. If you can call it Main as there is no salad or side. Overall we really enjoyed our food and service was nice and quick. Very nice of them not to overcharge for Lidl Treviso Prosecco, which cost only 7€, considering that food prices are pretty high.More
Hi, thanks for the review. I'd just like to point out our prosecco comes from a reputable supplier and not from a local supermarket.
My boyfriend and I were visiting Dublin for a few days and both adore seafood. We stumbled upon this beautiful, tiny hidden gem whilst walking around temple bar. The restaurant is very small (3 tables for four and a small bar seating area) and doesn’t...take bookings BUT if you’re lucky enough to stumble across a table like we were it’s well worth it. The staff were attentive and helpful. The food was delicious. We had two different types of naked oysters, fish chowder, a prawn dish and the salmon tacos. The food was all delicious! A great find!More
this small but cosy place had it all. The door could not close in this cold windy day. The place is easily packed. There is a small toilet at the back. The menu is adequate for lunch. There are drinks to match. It does a...great chowder. Small portion is a large bowl. You can have a bigger one! Lovely oysters. I like them all. Crab claw stew was very filling. They do have desserts if needed.More
This is a good place to eat if you want to experience a small restaurant environment with some good seafood. The Cook does an excellent job of cooking the food. She brings it to your table with a smile. The place is small and a...little tight. It is a little pricey for the small portions. Good music is played while you eat your food.More
Cheerful and bright place compared to so many dark pubs. Food was great - shrimp po’ boy and chowder and salmon samba (?). We thought it was a pretty good value. This will only let me attach one photo so I chose the ambiance.
Fantastic little spot and highlight of our trip! Great selection of seafood, especially the torched oysters and lobster roll. Was a little pricey but worth it and you are in the temple bar area. Could so easily get carried away the menu is fab. It’s...very small so you may have to wait for a seat but it’s well worth it and adds to the charm to be honest. Loved our visit and would highly recommend to others!More
