I arrived anticipating a memorable meal. I left convinced that One Pico is operating at excellent culinary level. From the very first amuse-bouche, the steak tartare was superb. I was fortunate enough to try three different starters, each outstanding in its own right. The Crab was wonderfully fresh and elegant. The Poached Organic Salmon was deeply flavourful, elevated by a fantastic treatment of peas in both whole and velouté form. The Braised Beef Cheek Raviolo was sublime: intensely savoury and executed with real finesse. As a main course, the Lamb Rump deserves special mention. The cooking was impeccable, beautifully pink, tender, and precise, but what truly impressed me was the extraordinary pairing with the mint foam and the Mediterranean-inspired red peppers. The mint element brought freshness and aromatic lift without overwhelming the dish, while the peppers, cooked to perfection, added sweetness, depth, and an unexpected elegance. It was a sophisticated and brilliantly composed plate. Desserts maintained the same exceptional standard. The famous Passion Fruit Soufflé fully deserves its reputation: light, aromatic, perfectly risen, and balanced by vibrant acidity. The Chocolate Tart was equally excellent. There is clearly an excellent level of talent in this kitchen: outstanding produce, skilled execution and precise technique. Equally deserving of praise is the front-of-house team. The service was polished, warm, attentive, and perfectly paced, exactly the level of hospitality such an impressive kitchen deserves. I must also highlight the excellent recommendations from the sommelier, with great expertise and impeccable manner. One Pico is, without question, an essential dining destination in Dublin for anyone who truly appreciates exceptional cuisine and refined hospitality. I will absolutely return every time I visit the city.

The food was phenomenal and if I lived in Dublin, I would eat there as often as my wallet would allow.
