The Seafood Cafe is one of Dublin’s treasures and an essential visit for any seafood fan who happens to be in the area. Stylish design, a quality menu and great service await. I recommend the chowder, crab claws on ice and the lobster rolls, all of which are superb. All of the food is expertly presented and full of flavour. One of the best places in Dublin for seafood. Highly recommended.

The food was really excellent! We had 6 oysters and were able to get that split between 2 different types. For mains we got: garlic prawns, sea bass and monkfish. We got two bottles of wine that were great with our meal. It’s a super small place so I’m glad we’re got a reservation. Unfortunately being a small place with an open kitchen meant that our clothes did smell quite fishy after leaving the restaurant. (A small price to pay for an excellent meal)

I just had the craziest craving for oysters and couldn’t have had a better way to solve it by having dinner at Niall’s.
For drinks we had Serrano and the Homemade Lemonade, which was so nice.
Despite going for oysters, we also had the Caviar Potatoes — 100/10 — and my partner’s favorite for the night, the focaccia with smoked cod and anchovies. Both sides were nothing but perfect.
For the oysters we wanted to go for their Deluxe selection but unfortunately they were not available at the time we were there. That was really no problem because the Dirty Dozen was just as good as it could be.
Everything was fresh and gorgeous.
We also had to try the lobster with garlic butter, which apart from the divine taste was such a nice experience to choose a fresh live one straight out from the tank.
We were definitely more focused on eating rather than registering everything, but our experience could not have been better.
We’ve got to thank the very professional staff. Incredibly nice and welcoming people.
Whenever I go somewhere it’s usually pré-booked, the restaurant is very cozy but I would just not show up without a reservation unless it was a very quiet time.
Must have in Dublin. Thanks for such a great dinner.
Happy Christmas to all the staff, team and suppliers!

I had fairly high expectations from the raving reviews of this piece, but was still pleasantly surprised.
The quality of the food was high and it was clear everybody was dedicated to and knowledgeable of their craft. The staff made the time and effort to introduce the menu, including their selection of locally sourced oysters. And they were some of the freshest and best oysters I’ve had in a while. Same goes for the lobster.
The price point was very reasonable especially when considering the quality of the food and the service. Definitely would recommend

I had the pleasure of having lunch at The Seafood Café by Niall Sabongi, and it was an amazing experience! I tried the linguine with crab, some scampi, and fresh crab claws — everything was incredibly fresh and full of flavour. The quality of the seafood was outstanding, and the service was exceptional: friendly, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what they do.
We paired our meal with a French Chardonnay, and also enjoyed some Bloody Marys and other cocktails — all perfectly made. We’re already planning to come back on Monday for the Happy Hour with oysters and champagne. Definitely one of the best seafood spots in Dublin!

The best seafood I had recently. Fresh, delicious and tiramisu at the end was amazing. Really nice service and lots of choice. Make sure you book in advance to guarantee a seat.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.
Can’t decide if the food was more amazing or the customer service. If we ever visit Dublin again, we will 100% be eating here again.
We were new to seafood and got some help with the menu. Decided on the bucqtini ai frutti di mare pasta dish and scallops. It’s really cool watching the chef prepare the food in front of you and the dining experience is very calm and enjoyable.

We had an amazing experience here. Felt really well taken care of and got great recommendations for wine and fish. We came to Dublin to see a show this time, but our next visit will definitely be just to eat here again!

This was hands down the best dinner I had during my 2 week visit to Ireland and I will not soon forget it. The Dublin Bay prawns were so fresh and delicious (and very messy)! I had never had double fried chips (fries) before and could not stop eating them. I can’t remember the name of the dessert, but it had gooseberries and mascarpone and it was incredible! Our waitress was very nice and attentive and we enjoyed people watching in the outdoor seating.
