Sole Seafood & Grill

Dana Davis★★★★★★★★★★4.03 weeks ago

Dinner at SOLE Seafood & Grill was one of the standout meals of our Dublin trip. The atmosphere felt upscale yet comfortable, and the seafood quality was excellent throughout the evening. Shortly after being seated, someone came by offering warm brown soda bread or sourdough bread, which was a great touch and a nice introduction to the meal. We started with the Guinness Smoked Salmon and the West Cork Rope Mussels, both beautifully prepared and packed with fresh flavor. The Fish n Chips arrived golden and crisp with tender flaky fish inside, and the Fish Pie was rich, creamy, and comforting without feeling too heavy. For dessert, the Dark Forest was decadent and beautifully presented, while the Mango Mousse was light, refreshing, and a perfect way to finish the meal. Service was warm, attentive, and polished for most of the night. The only disappointment came at the very end. After we finished dessert, our server never returned to close out the experience. Another waiter eventually brought the check without acknowledging our original server or checking in with us, which made the ending feel abrupt compared to the otherwise excellent hospitality. Overall, still a fantastic seafood experience in Dublin with high-quality dishes, beautiful presentation, and a memorable atmosphere. I’d happily return.

We had a wonderful dinner at SOLE Seafood & Grill in Dublin. The seafood was incredibly fresh, and the Captain Seafood Tower was outstanding. The oysters, prawns, lobster, crab, and mussels were all delicious and beautifully presented. A special thank you to Patrick, who provided exceptional service throughout the evening. He was friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, and made our experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was elegant, the food was excellent, and the dessert was the perfect finish to a memorable meal. We highly recommend SOLE to anyone visiting Dublin.

I celebrated my birthday here and honestly couldn’t have picked a better place. We had the captain’s table and the experience menu was absolutely outstanding — beautifully curated, full of variety, and every dish was exceptional, especially the scallops. I also added caviar as a special extra, which was a lovely indulgence and made the evening feel even more special. The service was genuinely warm and attentive, the cocktails were perfectly on point, and the overall atmosphere was fantastic. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone, especially if you’re planning a birthday or a special event — such a memorable experience.

A very unique and genuinely pleasant place. The fish was incredibly fresh and full of flavour! I truly enjoyed the salmon, the depth of taste was impressive. The oysters were as fresh as they come. The waiter forgot to bring the sauce for the oysters, but after trying one, I realised it wasn’t needed at all. The quality spoke for itself. The rest of the dishes were just as good, with perfectly sized portions, satisfying without being heavy. The atmosphere is warm and relaxed, making the whole experience even better.

Overall a decent experience, though the food itself was closer to 3 stars. The seafood was fresh and tasted good. However, the non-seafood dishes were disappointing. The steak was overcooked and quite tough, and both the fries and the fried risotto (arancini) were excessively oily, with the oiliness noticeable in the taste. The fries also lacked crispiness. We also had a reservation but were seated at a table in the middle of the restaurant where staff constantly passed by. There were several better tables available during our meal and even after we had paid, which made the seating choice a bit frustrating.
