Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

A great night out for our annual Christmas dinner for eleven people . The staff were attentive and welcoming and the food excellent. I would particularly recommend the tandoori prawns! We will certainly be back.

Thoroughly enjoyed our return visit to Vermilion, to enjoy the food and wine, the hospitality and the jazz. Food was superb, the service was welcoming and friendly, and the jazz was very much to our liking. Very Highly Recommended.

Lovely venue. There on a Wednesday night and only 4 other people there despite other places in the area being quite busy. Know why though as quite expensive. We had 1 starter one side, 1 main course between us with naan bread and rice. 2...glasses of wine and 2 teas. Bill was 72 euros! Was a bit shocked to sea rice was 4.50E and nan bread 3.95!! Wouldn't be going too often!More

After recently writing a poor review of the restaurant the owner reached out to me which I thought was very good and showed that he took my poor review seriously and wanted to collect more detail as to why I had not rated the food...received. I would just like to acknowledge this as its not the norm when poor reviews are received and normally the restaurant either ignores them or worse still rubbish's them. I will be visiting the Vermillion in the future.More

Food was top notch. The 3 chilli dish we ordered wasn't spicy but was still delicious. Garlic naan and vegetable samosa starter was lovely.

Wonderful Indian food in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The service is friendly and efficient. A group of us shared a number of dishes, and they were all delicious. There's something to please every palate, whether you like it spicy or mild. Can't wait to go...back!More

Visited with 2 friends recently, we had a great night, no rush to give back the table. I went with the butter chicken which was so rich and delicious. Our server was very friendly and professional and happy to make recommendations for us. We added...a few sides the Dal Makhani and Smokey potatoes where our favourites. I'd like to see more wines on the menu but they'd good options and we didn't go thirsty! Will definitely be back soon!More

My family and I got a takeaway from the Vermilion on Saturday last and were very disappointed with the standard of the food. The sauce was weak and runny with no vegtables included in the sauce. This was very poor for a restaurant which prides...itself on the quality of the food and which in the past has been very good. I feel the standards have definately slipped.More

Had dinner this evening and it was terrible. Took 90 minutes for the main course to arrive. Saag was mostly bland sauce - see photo which shows the remainder of sauce having finished course. Starter had abundances of black burnt onions with over cooked prawns....Other dishes equally poor. Don’t know if under new management as have had some excellent meals here previously. Will not be going back.More

Really enjoyed our return visit to Vermilion after a long interval. Delighted that we did, because it was every bit as good as we remembered. Delightful food, full of flavour, served by lovely staff. Be careful, and watch out for the little chilli symbols -...this is an Indian restaurant and can be spicy for Irish tastes. But the flavours ! Poppadoms and a mango (??) dip to start was delicious. Plenty of choice, and everything we ate was superb. Very Highly Recommended.More

We had a wonderful wednesday night at vermilion recently. Laura looked after us really well & we couldn’t have been happier. The food was delish & 2 for one on the cocktails was a big hit! Also being able to bring your own wine is...cool with €10 corkage per bottle. We’ll definitely be back!More

I had such a great time at Vermillion! I attended with my boyfriend and the food was absolutely gorgeous and well worth the price paid for it! The staff were extremely friendly and very attentive to our table, they consistently made sure everything was perfect...which it was, I definitely will be visiting again as this was my first encounter with this restaurant. Very well done to all staff members as this can be a very tough time for staff and business owners due to Covid but this business is doing a great job! Would highly recommend for both service and food!More
