Carluccio's - Dun Laoghaire

One of my favourite places. Food always beautiful, great staff and cosy atmosphere. I always recommend it to my friends when they are arround that area.

Had lunch here. They do a really good lunch deal, 2 course for €14.99. The place is really nicely laid out and has a good atmosphere. The staff really know their stuff and the menu. I had a mushroom soup with planetta and spinach ravioli. Both dishes were top quality. Can't argue with the value, service, or food. Definitely recommend.

If you like to share food this is a good place to go. The menu has a lot of sharing options you can try any three pastas between two in case you can't decide between the 12 options. They also have a small section of tapas type dishes which are three for twelve euro. Portions are generous and very reasonably priced all pastas are around 12 euro. I had smoked mozzarella to start which was amazing and a spicy sausage pasta with a Verde salad for main so that just made my evening! And our waitress was really attentive and friendly. Really enjoyed the food here, would go back for sure.

Last weekend my family and I celebrated my Grandpa’s 86th birthday in the new location for Carluccio’s Restaurant in Glasthule. I’m a big fan of Carluccio’s of Dawson Street so I had high hopes standards for the food at their new restaurant. I shared starters with my brother uncle, and they were pretty delicious! My lobster main was quite tasty and my dessert was plentiful, though they did fall short of their usual standard. The staff was excellent in catering to our needs (two young children and a vegetarian amongst a party of 13) and the final bill was rather reasonable considering we all ordered a three-course lunch with drinks, cocktails, wine coffees. I do recommend trying Carluccio’s though, especially with their new close-to-the-sea location.<br/ <br/ Tried Tested: Bellini cocktail, Tonno e Fagioli (A salad of cannellini beans and barley topped with tuna and dressed with lemon and extra virgin olive oil with toasted focaccia bread), Pepolata Arancini (Crispy fried pepolata and mozzarella rice balls served with a pepper mayonnaise for dipping), Lobster Spaghetti (Lobster tossed in spaghetti with crab, fresh tomato, basil and chilli), Salted Caramel Chocolate Ice Cream Sundae.
