I had a wonderful experience at Grano restaurant for a friend's birthday celebration. The service was truly outstanding, and every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. It's such a charming and cozy atmosphere, perfect for a special occasion. I can't wait to return for another meal. I highly recommend this establishment.
Our visit to Grano was probably the highlight of our Dublin trip. The food , service and atmosphere were fantastic. The front of house staff were very friendly and helped us with an excellent wine suggestion. We were seated right next to Giovanni who was on pasta duty, and it was wonderful watching him work - he is a true pasta master! A word of warning - make sure you leave room for desserts! We had to narrow down our choices from 4 to 3 as they were all so fantastic. It's not often that the desserts outshine the mains, but at Grano that might just be the case - well done to the pastry chef! We stumbled upon Grano in the Michelin guide, but I truly can't think of a single reason why this restaurant doesn't already have a star - it's surely on its way! Thank you for a magical meal
I’m a huge food lover, and Grano has never once disappointed — we’ve been here more than 30 times! If you’re lucky enough to get a table, consider it a blessing. From the moment you walk in, the warm, welcoming atmosphere sets the tone. The staff are consistently friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. The food is always made with the freshest, highest-quality ingredients, and the prices are spot-on for the level of service and excellence you get. The wine list is extensive, and the team are incredibly knowledgeable — I often just ask for their recommendations, and they always never fail.
Had a lovely time in Grano. The place is small enough but very cosy. The staff are wonderful and personable. The food was amazing! Even not being a pasta lover I loved the special pumpkin pasta. They didn't look like much but they were very filling! Dessert was so good even if we did have to scarf it down. Make sure no one in your party is late because they are always booked and you have a 2 hour slot for your table. The staff are lovely about making sure you're able to enjoy the food within that time frame though. Definitely looking forward to coming back!
This is a special place for us. I don't know how I can put this into words. There's a certain feeling of home when you walk into the restaurant. A sense of grace, something that's just so comforting and familiar. My wife and I have been multiple times and every meal is exceptional. The pasta is made fresh and if you're lucky you can get a seat right next to them making it! My wife and I got lucky on our honeymoon and did just that. The staff is excellent, the food is divine, and the wine selection is superb. Don't forget to make a reservation in advance!
