Went for a late lunch. The atmosphere was cool. Good vibe. Staff were exceptionally nice. I had a mai tai cocktail ???? it was delicious I had 2 more. I had a cesar salad which was delicious. Hubby had their burger with real not frozen chips. Would definitely recommend it and I will definitely be back

Stopped in here for a bite of lunch. Everything on the menu looked really good.
I couldn't decide between a Beef Shin Ragu Rigitoni Pata with Basil Pesto, or a Korean style Ham Hock Sandwich with Penut Slaw. I asked the waitress for a recommendation; she instantly recommended the Beef Shin Rigitoni and it did not disappoint.
Wow! It was delicious! Fantastic Ragu, perfectly cooked pasta, drizzled with some pesto and freshly ground parmesan. Pesto was a nice touch, not something I would have thought of.
My other half had the Crispy Fish Sandwich, which was also amazing. Crispy well cooked fish and delicious tartar sauce.
Staff were really freinly and welcoming.
It is a short walk from Killmainham Gaol and Irish Modern Art Museum. About 15 min walk from the Guinness Storehouse, so probably about 30+ min walk from the city centre, but there are Luas Tram stops not that far away.
Definitely worth a visit, you won't be disappointed!

The staff is lovely and the place is beautiful.
The food is lacking.
14 euro for a small portion of wings. ???? Was probably like 6 little wings. A bit ridiculous
27 for cod and is coming just with some Beans.
I don't remember How much was the fish and chips unfortunately
Everything including 2 alcohol free Bears cost like 75 I think.
A bit disappointing...too expensive in my opinion. I wouldn't mind paying that if the food was more good quality
Never coming back.

We went for lunch with our toddler. Great food, quick service and everyone was so helpful and smiley! They even have colours and paper to entertain kids and they were very kind and patient with our little one. I'd definitely go back!

Old-school Union/Urban 8 is BACK! No more awful bar nonsense, just gorgeous food, super service, brilliant vibe. If you drifted away, come back. Just had a great midweek feed.

Staff extremely nice. . We shared a starter prawns in a chillie and garlic sauce. €17 5 prawns no bread for the sauce. Prawns under cooked .Main course rib-eye steak 16oz ( not ) medium to well done I asked for . It came with a few chips a few mushrooms and onions on top ( I mean a few ) a tiny jug of pepper sauce and chips. No vegetables. The steak was extremely tough and small . My friend had Raman Curry supposed to have chicken (none at all)
We didn't want to cause any problems with the staff however we told the manager who offered us another option half way through our meal (too late at that stage )
We paid €134 .
We can't recommend this restaurant
One of the worse meals for the price

Had not been here since it was Union8 (yes, long time). A little expensive for lunch, but the area is more gentrified now and big footfall with kilmainham jail around the corner. Staff friendly. Food tasty. Limited menu, but good options and very well prepared and great quality and taste. It was a little quiet, but this was lunch on a Wednesday so probably to be expected. Ham hock sandwich really good, as was Southern fried chicken sandwich and ragu. Apple crumble desert was also really nice. Great coffee too!!

Fantastic dog friendly bar & eatery. The food was delicious, and the service was friendly but, unfortunately, a bit slow serving our drinks. I also would have liked a choice of IPA beer, but the only one they had available was lovely. We will be back again soon.

It's cold inside. Promised leaf tea is teabag-tea instead. Shakshuka out of a tin mainly, no garlic/cumin/olive oil or love added. Service okay but impersonal.

Nice place where to eat good dishes. Staff is very kind. Maybe inside is a bit too cold, toilet also colder, at least for us tourists. It was a pity because we wanted a warm place where to seat and rest a bit. A part from that, the place is cozy and nice.

We were looking forward to nice dinner out before Xmas but unfortunately apart from ourselves there was only 4 other people in the restaurant for the night, no atmosphere at all and very loud not so good music pumping out. Food was ok, drinks ok, no specials available. We felt we were rushed as starter & main course done in under an hour, the staff were friendly but when giving the bill just stood there waiting for payment rather than give us a couple of minutes. Altogether very disappointing and we were glad to leave, went over to the Hilton and enjoyed a few cocktails in a place with some Xmas atmosphere. We won't return to urban 8.
