Getting cold should not be a problem (unless the seasons change) because there are heaters spread around the rooftop area."
"The sister restaurant to the Rustic Stone, Fade Street Social is another critically acclaimed gastronomic gem. Fade Street Social consists of a restaurant, a tapas and gastro bar, and a cocktail winter garden. The menu is created from a number of culinary influences, from Irish to more international fare."
"Coppinger Row is mid-range mediterranean cuisine at its best, featuring exciting takes on the usual mains you would expect of a similar establishment.

Platform 61 opened in 2015, but is a little-known Dublin gem."
"Bastible shines with dishes like this starter with heritage tomatoes, cured sea-trout and smoked roe. Bastible was the favorite answer to our question of which one restaurant we should check out during our second visit to Dublin. This is the chef-driven, bib gourmand restaurant where Chef Barry FitzGerald, formerly of popular Dublin Italian standout Etto (see above), exercises his culinary chops."
"Notoriously hard to get a booking, Bastible is a contemporary bistro that’s reinventing what exactly a ‘bistro’ should be.

They do all the classic brunch recipes while also adding a few more original plates, such as blueberry, lemon, and ricotta pancakes and grilled peach French toast.

"I’ve always loved Carluccios’ Italian fare (I am partial to their ravioli) and my kids now love it too. To families, they offer a kids menu with the possibility of picking the pasta shape you want and the sauce of your liking: a simple thing that makes kids feel engaged and makes eating with fussy eaters immensely easier (especially if the fussy eaters in question are very opinionated about pasta type like my two!). Address: 52 Dawson Street, Dublin 2"
