Every time I come back to Ireland I visit this restaurant. We had a booking for 20.15 while we waited for our table visited the bar with a great atmosphere. We ordered the steak which was as usual exceptional, the veg wonderful. You cannot go to Shanahans and not order the onions and special fries as for the wine and... More

I'd been dying to try this place for years. Finally, went here with a bunch of friends recently for lunch special for 45euro. This is pretty good, considering the prices for the evening meals. Two of us had the caesar salad, which was very generous and tasty, and the other person had a trio of salmon. Can't speak for the... More

Very expensive, but you get what you pay for. Very good advice by waiting staff, accurate and friendly. Superb steaks. Wouldn't go regularly, but certainly for special occasions. More

Excellent food. The steak was on par with top NEw York steak houses. Yes, expensivw but well worth it. Terrific service And the ambiance first class. Not your typical Irish pub. We had cocktails at the bar downstairs and then proceeded upstairs to dinner. For my 60th, celebrating with a party of 9 and coming all the way from New... More

Traveled to Dublin with three other couple to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday as she was born there and hadn't returned after leaving at the age of 11 mo. Needless to say I wanted to make her birthday celebration an event and sought out suggestions from many people and decided on Shannahan's. It was GREAT. The ambiance, food and service... More

Ok, cards on the table time, Aware of the prices before we went, we came armed with vouchers. Good job too, as the bill was still eyewateringly large. For two of us. And we didn't go mad with wine- only 3 glasses. That said, however, the food is really really good (tbone steak and all the sides), the location immaculate... More

I've been here a few times over the last few years. Cant fault the steaks one bit - very "american style" with great wine list. Staff generally very good. One bad experience: My wife booked a surprise 40th birthday for me with all my friends waiting downstairs for me. We arrived at the reception area where we we're told that... More

There is no doubting the quality of this fine, up market restaurant, but the prices are just out of this world and only for the very rich. I actually used a voucher that I was lucky enough to get, hence the reason I was in a position to go, so it actually only cost me the price of a good... More
