I have not tried any other Italian restaurants in Dublin so cannot comment on the #1 status but the place, food, service etc. was very good. Dinner for two at less than €100. We had real Italian food with lots of flavour.

Il Vicoletto really lived up to the reviews! I was organising a Hen party and opted for Il Vicoletto based on previous reviews. Food was gorgeous, staff were a delight and atmosphere was a pleasure. We opted for the all night menu, it was great value and everyone was delighted with what they ordered. The calamari is absolutely divine for... More

Lush real italian food, very reasonable prices, good selection of food, we had the 3 courses with bottle of wine for 60.00 euro washed down with a yummy lemcello!

Went with 5 colleagues last Thursday evening for an early bird to celebrate one achieving her doctorate.

The service was excellent and the staff were very nice and friendly. Our waitress recommended a great red wine to the seafood we had. They served a wonderful dish as a starter -quite hot prawns... They... More

I am a great evaluator of and authority on Italian cuisine so I was surprised and at the same time happy to discover that in Ireland, here in Dublin, it is possible to taste real Italian cooking. The food I had at Vicoletto restaurant is hard enough to find even in Italy other than in the renowned temples of high... More

I would have never found this restaurant if not for a recommendation from a friend who had lived in Ireland. This small, 30-ish seat, restaurant was a welcome find. A bit of calm in the busy Temple Bar area....right near a Tattoo parlor. Reservations seem to be a must. We stopped by on a Friday and booked for Saturday night.... More
