Best Casual Restaurants in Castleknock

Beautiful dining area and atmosphere. Delicious food with attentive service. All round Grady experience.

We had a table (booth) just for us two which was lovely. My husband sat on the outside which he got a bit annoyed as people kept opening the door and a little draught came in. This didn’t spoil his enjoyment of the meal and service. Starters - he had beef croquettes and I had Gambas which I’d never had. 5 prawns in a chilli oil with sourdough bread. I think you are supposed to pick them up but I used my cutlery. Lovely. Mains - husband had 7oz Beef which he said was delicious and filling. I had Rotisserie Chicken with rice. I’m not mad about rice but this was delicious that I liked it more than the chicken which comes with gravy. Chicken was oh so tender and too big a portion for me to finish. Deserts - I had lemon tart, meringue and raspberry sorbet which cleaned my palate nicely. Husband had choux bun which comes with pistachio ice cream that they changed to vanilla and jug of chocolate sauce. He’s not a lover of nutty ice cream. 2 bottles of still water and 2 bottles of Malbec. Total €207 which we rounded to €220. Service was excellent. All staff smiling and well presented. I liked how the restaurant was separate from the pub. I’d definitely return.

Wow what can I say, the food at the black forge was the best food me and my wife has ever had. The staff was so friendly and very helpful and a joy to be around. They even let me and my wife have a picture with Conor’s ufc belt. We will definitely be going back again.

Recently had a group lunch booking with Fade Street. The team's attention to detail, from the initial booking to our departure, was exceptional. The set menu offered a fantastic range of choices, easily accommodating the diverse dietary needs within our group. And of course, the food was delicious. Thank you to the team!

We had a beautiful time at Bastible. What a beautiful restaurant just outside the city centre. Definitely a place we would love to go back to
