Da Mimmo's

Top choice in Dublin


The son of the original owners converted what was once a traditional fish-and-chip shop into this sit-down restaurant, now serving some of the best Italian food in the city. Everything here – from the Caprese salad to the lasagne – is as authentic as if you were dining in Tino's hometown of Casalattico (between Naples and Rome).
