riba

simple and enjoyable menu. food is always great & thestaffare fantastic. couldn't ask for more from a local gem like riba. we keep going back. it's nice to go somewhere where the people working seem to enjoy their job and treat their customers so well.

loved everything about this place form start to finish. interior, ambience andstaffare all on point before you even touch a bite of food. we had the prawns and bruchetta to begin, lamb and stonebass for mains and the nutella brioche and semi-freddo for dessert. everything was extremely fresh and of superb quality! the brioche in particular was one of the best desserts i've ever tasted in dublin. would highly recommend to all.

i'd seen riba many times driving through stillorgan, it's just up from the cinema. the front is sleek and welcoming and i kept meaning to try it out.

so i did. last friday night myself and a friend went for a late dinner. thestaffwere lovely, the table wasn't ready immediately so they seated us at the bar. i ordered a freshly pressed apple juice, unfortunately, from my prime seat at the bar i could see it was poured from a standard juice carton. not ideal. but the waiter did seem to have a good knowledge of the wine list so that was great.

our table was in the front section, the place was hopping and the atmosphere was brilliant.

we ordered the nachos, chicken wings and chips to share. the portions were good and big. our little bucket of wings was delicious, the good old spicy-vinegary kind. the chips weren't as crispy as you might like but they were seasoned well. the main event, the nachos, were generous and pretty tasty but not quite as moreish as i expected. nonetheless, we polished the whole lot off without too much trouble. i must admit as well that i think there main courses were probably where they shine, i saw a few served to tables near us and they looked great.

for our dessert we both ordered the creme brulee. we had wanted to order the nutella brioche pudding but they were sold out. but thankfully the creme brulee was pretty much perfect, silky smooth and nicely vanilla-d.

all in all, despite a few minor negatives, we really enjoyed riba. it's good food at reasonable prices and the next time i'm ordering a main course.

really great brunch menu here. thestaffare super nice and it is in a handy location with loads of free parking nearby. the riba huevos rancheros for €13 are delicious. they have spiced sausage and bean stew with five spice pork belly served with the eggs. they also make some of the best french toast i have ever had. unbelievably tasty and melt in the mouth good.

came here for brunch which was absolutely delicious! it was quite busy when we arrived, but thestaffwere very accommodating and sat us at the bar and had a table ready for us within 5 mins. we ordered coffees before our meal, which were fantastic, and then ordered the fry and a goats cheese and fig salad. the salad was easily the best goats cheese salad i've ever had, a very generous portion of goats cheese, figs, beetroot and a delicious light vinaigrette. the fry was also fab, we asked for no tomato so instead we were given an extra sausage.
for desert we had nutella brioche and butter pudding which was served with ice cream and a custard, the perfect end to a delish brunch
on mondays and tuesday's they have a 'date night' special which is €55 euro for 3 courses per person plus a bottle of wine - i'll definitely be back for it!!

popped in here for brunch at the weekend as we were all keen to try somewhere new. the place itself looks great but really lacks atmosphere. it feels a bit dead. thestaffwere a bit cold and service was very slow but the food made up for it. i myself had the quinoa salad which was really good. the only thing i could fault was that there was a little bit too much dressing. our table also had the prawn salad - the garlic and chilli prawns are in batter which we weren't expecting - but was lovely all the same. the steak sandwich was also a winner as were the chicken wings. a great little eatery like this was needed in stillorgan. a bit more atmosphere and friendlierstaffand this place would be ideal.

nice cafe with a good selection of food. they have a great early bird menu at a decent price of under €20 for two courses and €55 for two people with a bottle of wine. the brunch menu is lovely and the coffee is really great. the place lacks a bit of atmosphere and sitting outside looking over to stillorgan shopping center isn't the most ideal view as it is such a busy area but stillorgan could use more cafe's like riba.staffare lovely and very attentive.
