McG's personal faves (off top of my head) -
 
Casa Pasta in Howth - Great spot for some casual grub. Buffalo wings are top notch and their duck pizza is quality
 
Alcapulco on Georges Street - If ye like Mexican it's the only place to eat. Enchiladas and fajitas are second to none and their frozen margaritas blow the head off ye
 
Yamamori. There's two in town. - Wasabi, say no more Thumbs%20Up
 
Fire on Dawson Street - Pricey and up market joint but great steaks and fantastic service.
 
Cruzzos in Malahide - overlookin the marina and a great place to bring the burd. I go for their pepper sauce alone.
 
The Oar House, Howth - if ye like your fish give it a shot. Buffalo prawns Heart

Also there's an Asian cuisine in Malahide called Kajaal, think it's just been Michelin starred, absolute quality and not that expensive either. 3 course early bird for 18.50. If your into your Indian Japanese or Pakistani food you gotta check it out.

Try the Cedar Tree Lebanese restaurant which is close to the International Bar.................the food is not too pricey and if you're not to sure what to have you can have a platter of their best bits! Tasty stuff too! 
I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

I was specifically referring to Citywest.

On one of it's transformations the interior was more or less gutted and the ambience suffered, never mind it's based in a building that is soulless and bereft of people.

Service is IMHO, far from 10/10. From that sour puss female Maitre'd to the poor minimum wage or less waiting staff you'd be hard pressed to have every dish as ordered served.

We used to dine there at least once a month from 2002 to 2004 and then from 2005 to last year.

Oh yes - someone mentioned Jaipur.

Poor customer service I think, but the food is superb.  If you like your Indian stuff hot - get the Lamb Chilli Masalla here and asked em to add extra chillis.   Literally breath-taking!!!!!!
