Opinions FIRE STEAKHOUSE AND BAR Dublin

What a beautiful Easter Sunday dinner. The ambiance of the glass enclosed balcony was perfect. We are able to overlook the fountain and people watch. The staff were wonderful and the food was amazing. I would highly recommend this restaurant. Next time I would like to sit inside to enjoy the beautiful interior as the room looked stunning. I would highly recommend booking a reservation as we had drinks in the bar afterward and saw numerous people turned away with no reservation.

Kaisa our waitress was super kind and helpful. We had the porterhouse, amazing! Peppersauce was a bit poor but overall we really enjoyed our birthday dinner. My wife got a little cake with a candle, nice touch.

Steak was great food and ambience both are very nice

2/5 only for the slightly above-average food quality, everything else is well below the average and not worth the price.

Let's start from the reservation. I booked our 20 ppl dinner well in advance and on the night of the event we were located in a huge and extremely noisy room with many other guests. Being a team dinner, the location made it impossible to have meaningful conversation, they should have 1) informed us or 2) located us on the terrace as their website says.

Once we all sat at the table, it took a good 15 minutes before we could order a drink. The room was full of staff members but they all seemed not interested in getting our orders. From the order, it took another good 10 minutes to get the drink.

Given the initial impression, we decided it was time to order and again, we had to ask one of the staff members if we could order. There was no proactive service of any sort.

The server that took the order did just that, no suggestions nor recommendations were made. They simply noted our orders on their tables and went away; I understand we were forced to a set menu with very limited options however, I would have expected a server from this location to interact with the customer and/or provide recommendations.

Starters were served in about 15 minutes. My starter - grilled tiger prawns with chorizo - was very appealing and presented nicely. The prawns had a rich, savory, and spicy taste; the chorizo and crayfish condiment was pleasant and buttery, as expected.

Mains came about 20 minutes later and they primarily were sirloin or rib-eye steaks. The plating was poor and did not follow any of the golden "plating rules" like locating the three basic food items (starch, vegetables, main) picturing the face of a clock, or placing the focal point of the disk on either the left or right side of the place, rather than the center. In essence, the main appeared very average and not in line with my expectations. While the meat was cooked as per my preference, no salt or rosemary, or any condiment was added to enrich the taste and flavor. The quality of the meat was notable despite the fact it had no particular taste or aroma; the crispy onions were not on the menu and they should have not been added without asking.

Desserts were served faster, I guess due to their "ready-to-serve" nature. This time plating was better and pretty much the only notable fact. The parfait had a very bland flavor and I could not taste any ginger. Nonetheless, while I was eating my parfait I felt a bad texture, and turned out to be a piece of paper that somehow made it part of the parfait. My attempt to let one of the staff member know failed after 5 minutes of no one noticing me asking for their attention.

In summary, my experience was very negative, and definitely would not recommend this location to friends or consider it for future events. The management should review how their staff deals with customers throughout the service and not just upon arrival. For what pertains to the foreign object in my food, I am speechless not only by the fact itself but also by the total lack of care shown by the staff.

One of the very best restaurants that I have visited. Food, service and just about everything is FIRST CLASS ???? you won't be disappointed

Très bon
Cadre chic
Personnel très sympathique

Fabulous... wonderful experience, everything was super... the decor is beautiful, the tables are large and well spaced which insured a personal and private evening.. highly recommend... Great staff, extremely attentive.

Très bel endroit pour dîner, les serveurs sont au petit soin , un peu plus cher que d autres restaurant mais la qualité est là

Absolutely amazing experience. Top notch service and beautiful decor. And the food was perfect. Rib-eye cooked to perfection, seasoned potatoes and spicy pepper sauce. But the clear winner was the spicy lamb skewers. Perfectly spicy, melt-in-your-mouth tender, and full of flavor. Wonderful experience.

Very nice starter and great steak.
The service needs to be a bit more attentive.
The room itself was fantastic.

The food was ok, I got lamb and it was pretty bland but my mashed potatoes and gravy was good and flavorful. My husband got the steak and it had more flavor, both were cooked perfectly at least. The espresso martini was good but $15 was a bit much. Overall it was very nice and all the staff was amazing, it was worth going but it won't kill me to not go back.

A truly culinary experience ????????????????????

Wow, one of the best places I've eaten in Ireland, because despite being a steakhouse, not only they offer a vegetarian/vegan menu, but each course has multiple options to pick from. Often I'm stuck eating the only vegetarian option on the menu, which is 99% of the time goats cheese/walnuts/beetroot in some form or garlic mushrooms ???? which was not the case at the Fire Steakhouse. Definitely will be back, as there are meals to be explored

Excellent meal with top service and a nice 'surprise' touch for a birthday. Really nice cocktail bar for pre (or post) dinner.

Fantastic place.. Will be back...

What a beautiful venue, and the food is incredible, but the staff are just great. we had Tom serving us tonight, and he was excellent and couldn't do enough for us, I will go again just for the service Tom. You were great

El sitio está genial, tiene un ambiente elegante. El servicio súper agradable.

Der Service hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben und war sehr aufmerksam. Die Vorspeise war in Ordnung und hat auch gut geschmeckt. Die Fleischqualität (Filet und Ribeye) lies sehr zu wünschen übrig. Mein Ribeye, bestellt Medium Well, war komplett durch und trocken. Lt. Karte sollten es 350g sein, was auch bei starkem Gewichtsverlust beim Braten nicht hinkommen konnte. Für Über 50€ hat das definitiv nicht gepasst. Service, Ambiente Top, Essen leider Flop!

I’m so torn when I think about Fire. It really is one of the most visually appealing restaurants in Dublin, with contemporary decoration in some classic rooms, and a very comfortable bar. However, the past two times I’ve eaten there, catching up with friends, the food has left me wanting, and the service has not been reflective of the price of eating there.

Most recently, when eating with 3 friends, I had a steak for mains, medium rare, and it was served as such. A friend asked for a steak medium well, and it was cooked beyond being edible. This was accepted by staff, and returned to the kitchen, with a request that the next steak be more on the medium side. It too was cooked beyond ‘well-done’. At this juncture the rest of us had finished our dinner, so we made no more of an issue of it. Further, when booking the table, we were told we could have it for the remainder of the evening as there’d be no more bookings by the time we finished. We were however asked to vacate the table at 9:30pm as ‘the table was required’, despite the fact the restaurant was at approximately 50% capacity at this stage. We moved to the bar to be greeted by impolite serving staff.

I’m not giving a lower review score than average. I feel that the last couple of times I might have been unlucky with serving staff. It remains, nevertheless a stunning looking restaurant.

Nous avons dîner avec mon épouse dans ce restaurant au cadre agréable.
La salle principale est spacieuse avec une grande hauteur sous plafond. L’ambiance parvient ainsi à être calme malgré le nombre de tables.
Les viandes étaient très bonnes et les cuissons respectées que ce soit pour le bœuf ou l’agneau. Le service a été agréable et professionnel.

I’m a bit late to the review, but it’s important to let my opinion and many thanks to the team, especially for Marcos, who was such a lovely and kind waiter/manager. Since me and my friend arrived there he came to give us a very welcome dinner and he was very kind during all the night. Everything was perfect and for sure we’ll come back. We had such a great experience. Marcos you made our night extremely special. Fire steakhouse congrats for the employee and look after him, he’s a great staff and he makes a big difference in the company. Our visit was on Valentine’s Day. Cheers

Lovely decor and atmosphere, staff was very quick to respond if we needed anything and food is excellent. We both had steaks ( sirloin and fillet) + seafood with fries.

Excellent value for the early bird or the weekend 1-5pm lunch, €39 for choice of app and main. Fresh baked bread. The 4 briney oysters were fresh and well presented. The sirloin steak was a bit overcooked for medium-rare but still delicious; I didn’t care for the sauce (but who puts sauce on their steak anyway?). The cauliflower gratin side (extra 6€) was the winner of the night. The included coffee and the white chocolate praline was the perfect way to end the meal. Pro tip: arrive early for a cocktail in the very elegant bar. We paid less here for a pint than at a pub in the Temple Bar area! 2024.03.

Dissapointing service, I emailed asking if the Free Range Chicken could be deboned due to my girlfriends dietary restrictions and was informed they could and just to ask the server on the day but when I did the server said that could not be and my girlfriend was forced to get the pasta that she couldnt eat, as the chicken was the only suitable dish, hence why i emailed in advance. They also forgot our fries and a coffee i had ordered with desert and charged our party 36 euro for water.

Einfach fantastisch. Angefangen beim Empfang im Restaurant, dann das Essen. Richtig richtig gut. Und der Service aussergewöhnlich aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Wenn man im historischen Teil sitzen will, sollte man reservieren und den genauen Wunsch äussern. Dann gibts keine Missverständnisse. Ich war spontan da und sehr zufrieden mit der Terrasse gewesen.
