"A polished Georgian-mile basement that has held its room for a decade — Dino Savic's seasonal Irish cooking, built for a Dublin date night."
Suesey Street occupies a Georgian basement at 26 Fitzwilliam Place, where the Georgian mile meets Leeson Street in Dublin 2. It marked a decade of service in 2025, and held a Michelin Guide listing through to early 2022 — a fixture of the city's modern-European scene.
Bar, restaurant and one of the city's best outdoor terraces share the address.
Executive chef Dino Savic builds the menu around seasonality and the freshest Irish produce, reading the calendar with flair rather than chasing trend. Small plates such as the croquettes open at about €16, while signature mains — among them a much-photographed lobster burger — run from roughly €28. The cooking is precise and ingredient-led, the plates generous rather than minimalist.
The dining room is warm and softly lit, a stylish basement that opens to a private dining area for larger parties. The real signature is the terrace — among the best in Dublin — heated and planted, and the reason the room books out on warm evenings. Service is assured and unhurried.
Best for a first date or anniversary — the candlelit basement and terrace read romantic, and the seasonal menu gives plenty to talk over. The private room also suits a birthday party.
Not for a quick, budget weeknight meal — this is an occasion room with occasion prices, and the basement setting suits a long evening over a fast bite.
