- Liam O HannrachainNovember 30, 2018A large fun space with great energy especially during the weekends. Always a great mix of people with fun music. Tip: Try the Rag Trader bar facing Drury Street which is linked to Dakota.
Great value lunch for €9.95. Have the chicken wings. Not quite Elephant and Castle but really good!
Mia JakobsenOctober 11, 2014The drink "dark and stormy" is neither dark, nor stormy, but sweet and fruity. But the rest of the drink are awesome :)
Thomas RuschkeJanuary 9, 2016Lots of room and a cool and relaxed atmosphere. Great for large groups.
Roberto AmatuzziNovember 5, 2014Chicken wings were great. I liked the service and the place is really cool.
Raj S.October 19, 2014This is where bros in their mid-20's in Dublin will go to pick up women, or at least try to do so. Godspeed gentlemen.
- Nichole QuinnMarch 18, 2011The 5 euro cocktails are amazing value, not all of them are good, the best is the Whiskey Sour

ValfsSeptember 1, 2013Clients should be called "waiters" here, as they wait a lot for service. The penne pasta is excellent though.
I like the food, v buggy friendly place but service is exceptionally slow. Waiters are usually too busy standing around chatting & pretending not to see you.
Ece Irem ArslanAugust 13, 2016Bodyguard first asked us about our age(we are 25) and when that excuse did not work,he said my friend was drunk(we hadn't drunk anything yet!).They obviously have something against tourists. Don't go!
DaveDecember 12, 2012Slow service. Very slow service. 10 mins from ordering to pint on table. Also, those craft beers you see advertised on the chalk board? They don't actually have them in stock!!! Shoddy.
Jason KinsellaApril 12, 2014Service is extremely slow. Poor customer service. Overpriced. You'll find much better places in the area.
Darren ByrneOctober 13, 2010And the award for most expensive pint in Dublin goes to......Dakota. Well, I hope there's nowhere more expensive than this.
