Rosa Madre is the most authentic Italian restaurant in Dublin. We are located in the heart of Dublin, one of the most exciting and vibrant areas of Dublin with great shops, bars and many five stars hotels.
We specialize in fresh fish, delivered daily by local suppliers and we guarantee to always have the finest quality available. Our seafood cuisine is characterized by the simple quality of the catch. We place our orders during the night, directly from the port where the fish is delivered to ensure we always get the freshest product available.

We got thrown out for not ordering enough entrees - despite ordering cocktails and expecting to order wine with our unacceptable one-course meal. Stupefying - this restaurant needs a bold disclaimer explaining you need to waste food if you want to dine there. Luckily we found another spot that took out £100

The best at what they do in town. Salt baked seafood to delicate pasta and a wine list to die for.
