There are a lot of great places to eat out in Dublin, and one of the best places to go is the Capel Street area. Lying on the West side of Dublin, Capel street is named after the family of the Lord Lieutenant of 1672-77, Lord Arthur Capel, also the Earl of Essex. Capel street and its immediate area boast a number of night spots and hotels and with a fascinating combination of Asian and European restaurants to choose from. The modern city diner is spoiled for choice, and making the decision as to where to eat may prove to be the most difficult part of the night.

Halo Restaurant at the Morrison Hotel on Ormond Quay has been recently redecorated and has created a relaxed approach to dinning through it’s friendly service. The atmosphere of this restaurant is mainly fairly informal and yet it remains to hold onto it’s fashionable appeal and its elegance. Gospoda Polska is a Polish restaurant on Capel street offering the very best of Polish cuisine, a good atmosphere and great Polish music. And long before there was even a hint of the other fashionable restaurants opening on Capel Street, Romano’s was being recognised as one the best value Italian restaurants in Dublin, especially for lunch. There is great diversity on the menu so even people who aren’t nuts about Italian food will still enjoy a great meal there.

Capel street is also getting a bit of an Asian flavour, and If it is Chinese food that you’ve got an appetite for there are also options in the Capel street area to accomodate you, Hilan Chinese and the Jade Chinese restaurant serve up traditional Chinese dishes cooked with the Asian and European palate in mind. Just to make Capel street even more cosmopolitan, Zanzibar; also on Ormond Quay, serves up great African and middle eastern food. So if it’s Asian, European or something else entirely, diners have lots of choice when it comes to eating out in Capel street, in the heart of Dublin.
