For our final night in Ireland, my wife and I made reservations at Host in Dublin and decided to try the Chef’s Menu for Two. It ended up being one of the best dining experiences of our trip. We paired the meal with a bottle of Luis Seabra Xisto white wine, which was excellent. To start, we enjoyed the burrata with peaches and the shiitake mushroom arancini. The burrata was fresh and creamy, while the arancini was perfectly fried with a rich, comforting flavor. Our pasta course featured the Pumpkin Cappellacci with walnut and sage and the Pappardelle with lamb shoulder ragu. Both were outstanding, but the pumpkin cappellacci was our favorite. The highlight of the evening was the pork chop with mushroom gravy, fried potatoes with aioli, and a fresh tomato salad. It was hands down the best pork chop either of us has ever had—perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and packed with flavor. To finish, we had the tiramisu, which somehow managed to top everything else. We both agreed it was the best tiramisu we’ve ever eaten. From the exceptional food to the attentive service, Host delivered what was arguably the best meal of our entire trip. If you’re visiting Dublin, this restaurant is an absolute must. We can’t wait to come back.

Amazing food and friendly staff! I really recommend the chefs menu, you get to try a bit of everything and it’s good value for money.

Some of the best food I've ever had in Dublin!! We booked this place months in advance, however it was definitely worth the wait. I would recommend getting the chef menu for two if you're going. A little expensive, but the quality of the food really does make up for it. The pasta dishes were some of the nicest I've ever had, and the steak was sensentional

5-stars but honestly go to Uno Mas (UM). Host struggles. Uno Mas dos it better in every single way, so don't waste your money going here.

Excellent service, food and produce very fresh and prepared to exacting standards. Very well selected wine list. Very friendly and well trained staff. Highly recommended, reservations only. Even the Friday late lunch was fully booked.
