I love the Dubliner exactly for what it is. It's a great local spot for a bite to eat or to have a few drinks. It's cozy, the ambiance is comfortable. The owner is great and I've never seen anyone in restaurant management work as hard as he does. I've had them host my fiance's going away party and they were very accommodating and made it so much easier on me.
Review Source:The Dubliner sucks! I went there with my girlfriend recently. We went in sat down, it was seat yourself. The waitress came up with plastic place mats which also is the menu. We noticed 80% of the food was fried.
My girlfriend ordered the black and bleu inside out burger which on the menu they acted like it was a "Dubliner specialty" She ordered it medium, and it came out Raw. Not Rare, RAW! Red mushy meat inside, she sent it back and it came out again RAW!!!, sent it back a second time and it came back Extremely well done! She only ate like 3 bites and didn't want it.
I ordered fish an chips and it was extremely greasy and the batter just fell off the fish when you picked it up. Chips were okay but nothing I can't do myself with a white potato and hot oil. I bet if I went to Ireland I wouldn't have been served such appalling food and isn't that the point? Irish pubs are supposed to make you feel like your in Ireland right? Â
Charlee (another reviewer) stated that serving imported beer on tap doesn't make you special and I fully agree. I know plenty of bars who serve Guinness, Harpers and Smithwicks on tap.
In a nutshell I will not be coming back. There are fast food chains that serve better food...which IMO is the worst critique you can give any sit down restaurant.
The Dubliner basically sucks. It feels NOTHING like an Irish pub inside. Irish pubs (on which I've become an expert by proxy, since boyfriend's family name is McGinnis)are supposed to be dark, cozy, and at least somewhat friendly...Dubliner is none of these things. I've now eaten here twice and experienced the bar/nightlife once. I won't be back.
Tables are practically stacked on top of one another on the restaurant side. I was here for Quizzo, and even my little self had to shimmy past people to get to the bathroom. I agree that Irish pubs should have a "tight" feeling, but this was ridiculous.
I thought the prices were outrageous for what they offer. $7 for a "veggie plate appetizer???" You mean to tell me you cut up some vegetables that you bought wholesale and plopped them on a plate with a side of ranch and you're charging $7?? Come on!!!!! They have some "authentic" Irish dishes: shepherd's pie, bangers & mash...I'm not buying it. This place is so damn tacky. The first time I ate here I ordered chicken fingers (I'm 5 apparently), and had some of boyfriend's Dubliner chips. Chicken was okay; you'd really have to be an idiot to eff up frozen chicken tenders that you threw in a deep fryer. Dubliner chips weren't bad, but I've definitely had better homemade versions. Last time here they had what looked like an awesome special: grilled shrimp and scallop skewers with fresh vegetables and rice. At a pricepoint of $8, I was pretty psyched. Until it arrived at the table. The shrimp, no joke, were the mini shrimps I steam for salads. The scallops were equally puny. There were literally 2 baby shrimp and 1 scallop on each of the 2 skewers. That's right, 4 baby shrimp and 2 scallops total. Who is this going to fill up?!?! They were so damn hard to see on the skewers though because the vegetable chunks were friggin huge!!! The vegetables were probably the best part of this meal, which is a shame because it could have been sooo much better if Dubliner chose not to be so cheap. The very thin layer of rice on the bottom of the plate was okay....it was obviously Minute Rice but whatever. The server was actually really sweet and I felt bad that it looked like just her running around to all these crammed tables of obnoxious drunk kids.
Dubliner prides itself on serving Guinness, Smithwicks, and Harp on tap....sorry Dub, but I've been on cruise ships that serve all of these beers on tap. You're not special, and you're certainly not an Irish pub.
The Dubliner is a decent place. There's nothing wrong with it, but there's nothing remarkable, either. It has standard bar food for standard prices, and the usually selection of crappy beers for reasonable prices or decent beers with a high profit margin. Most of my friends seem to like their wraps.
Review Source:I stopped by this place during a whirl-wind tour of the northeast about a month and a half ago. Most of the restaurants I visited seemed to blur together. This place stuck out, though. Â I was there from noon until about three catching up with friends. Food was good, service was friendly and fast. Next time I'm back in the area I would definitely stop in.
Review Source:Being as it's in a strip mall, I didn't expect much. The place is tiny yet cozy. Food isn't bad, very basic, and not very Irish for an Irish bar. However, I go back because they do run some great specials. Saturday nights are 1.75 pints and half price bar food. A friend and I sat there one night for a Yankees-Angel playoff game that lasted a good 4 hours. We had a good 8 or 9 beers a piece plus 2 bar apps and one regular wrap and our bill was still less than 40$$.
Service is just fine. Friendly bartenders who are attentive. I'll go back for the prices.
