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.

I took my 9 year old nephew here for lunch after the Science Exhibition at the RDS for a treat. We shared wings to start which they split half with no sauce, so helpful. He ordered the steak from the kids menu which was served with chips. "My steak was brilliant, soooooooooo juicy". I had the gambas which were amazing, both served with chips. The lunch menu is extensive ranging from lighter lunches to burgers, steaks and daily fish specials.
Lovely kids ice cream dessert to finish. Our waiter was Valerio, he was super! The hostess was really friendly and took our coats, she helped my nephew into his coat which brought his overall score of Asador to 11/10. They really went above and beyond to make our experience special. Can't wait to get back for lunch again soon.

We ordered several of the cook it yourself bbq boxes from different steakhouses around town during lockdown, but Asador's offering was by far the best available.
We went for the deluxe bbq box, which was made up of chickens wings, 4 dry aged burgers, around a pound of sausages, ribs and 2 delicious ribeye steaks. There were also too many sides and sauces to name them all! We had the neighbours in with their kids and we thought there would be too much food to go around but we ended up cooking it all and it was lapped up!
The corn on the cob was a favourite of the little ones!! Looking forward to getting in to the restaurant when you reopen guys, see you soon, J & M

Good social distancing measures in place. Lots of people in but plenty of space between.
Starter was shared chicken wings (do they count as wings if it's a mixture of legs and wings?). The coating was lovely and sticky with bags of flavour. A good blue cheese dip to go with.
We went for a shared chateaubriand for main. This really was superb. 16oz was easy enough for the two of us. Well cooked and the whole lot disappeared. the chips and salad were fine as sides.
Staff were polite and helpful. Very nice to be given time between courses whilst not getting the feeling you were being forgotten about.

I was tasked to organise a reunion for a company where we had worked together many years ago, all of us had now left U& located in various different industries and even countries and only handful of us had stayed in touch in the physical world.
To pull this off, I felt that the venue and the location had to be 100% perfect. I had been in Asador's before and recalled that it had a really nice terrace. The location is adjacent to the city centre but not actually in the centre, easier for those who travelled from further afield.
I set up a meeting with the manager, Drazen, who was incredible to deal with and the reunion went way beyond my expectations.
A cocktail on arrival ensured that the passage of time was no more and the laughter and chitchat flowed. Asador prides themselves on the quality of their food and the menu was excellent and varied. Their service was impeccable.
The terrace was the real winner that set the tone of the night, Its very tastefully designed, complete with private bar and encourages an ease of social interaction which was so important. The terrace has heaters and windows which were opened which also made it very safe from a covid and health perspective. As we dined on the terrace, proof of vaccination was not required tho the main restaurant did.
The reunion went so well that we are discussing having a reunion of the reunion .. where else but Asador and the terrace of course!
Thank you again Drazen and your incredible team!

Asador is a super restaurant located off Baggot street serving beautiful fish and meat.
Visited twice in august and loved the experience. I had fish on both occassions - both served very differently -once on a pasta tortellini and once roasted. Try the asparagus starter with the quail egg- amazing!
Happily recommend it :
Good or families and groups
Beautifully decorated room
Indoor and outdoor dining options
Book ahead as it’s a busy spot
Friendly and helpful staff ( good with allergies )

We had booked Asador for 8.00 pm, but arrived almost 25 minutes early. Great news, this was not a problem. Great start. The waiter was with us very quickly with the menus, food, wine, cocktails. While the food menu is quite small, it more than makes up for with quality. We choose the chicken wings for starter, excellent choice, then my wife had the burger and I had the 12-oz Delmonico steak. My wife thought the burger was excellent, and my steak was cooked exactly as ordered and was exceptionally tasty. For dessert, we chose to share the cheeseboard, as we were quite full from the starters and mains. We had the Malbec Zorzal wine, another great choice. The waiting staff were very friendly, informative and attentive. I am not sure about car parking in the area, we used public transport, but as it is situated on quite a busy street, it may prove a little difficult. And while this venue is not on the less expensive side, it is certainly great value for money. Would certainly recommend, and will return soon, hopefully!

Fantastic food - at home! Off the charts as we’ve come to love about this place. We love this restaurant anyway (live closeby) but with us having young kids we didn’t want to bring them in as it’s been advised against by their school. So, we ordered wings, ribs, burgers, steak and chips and I collected it. Genuinely it was SIMPLY AMAZING. There was a special collection deal happening too which was an added bonus. Well done to this place. We have eaten here before and it’s always been amazing. Sometimes food doesn’t travel that great but the kids and us loved the food even though it wasn’t as enjoyable as being in the restaurant. Best steak burger in Dublin. Fantastic and highly recommend it 👍

We have always loved this place since it opened nearly 10 years ago. Many of the staff are still there from the getgo. They have recently refurbished the place even though it looked great before this. The food was … incredible. I had a fillet which tasted amazing. My wife had chicken and the kids devoured chicken wings and fish. The great thing is they had the John Dory which was fish of the day made available in the kids menu. The service was only eclipsed by the most phenomenal meal we have had so far this year. I’d highly recommend it to anyone. Best steakhouse in Dublin as well as superb fish and chicken. It’s sister restaurant Lennans Yard just opened last year. It’s just as good as Asador - a real treat for when out without the kids. Asador is more casual but it’s the food that makes them both standout. Only one word describes everything in both restaurants - ‘exceptional’.

I've visited here a few times now. I've always enjoyed it. I usually have seafood when I go as they've always had a nice catch of the day option. We had beautiful octopus to start which was tender and very nicely sauced. Our Halibut mains were excellent; generous tranches of bright, fresh fish from their eponymous Asador grill. Service is always friendly and professional and the wine list has plenty of interesting choices. The room (indoors) is elegant, though it can be loud. They also have a nicely tricked-out terrace area which seems to be very popular. I look forward to returning and will continue to recommend the venue to friends and family.

What more can you want? When a six year old says "I give this meal a 10 out of 10" we all agreed.
Excellent service and the meats were cooked to a nice charred on the outside, juicy on the inside perfection. Definitely worth a visit when in Dublin.

We had dinner in Asador last night. 6pm sitting. There’s also one at 8:15pm but we opted for the earlier one. It was faultless. The food was incredible. The quality of the produce was outstanding. It was a set menu of five tasting dishes. Portions were perfect - not too big and certainly not too small. Iberico ham that tasted like honey. Lobster Risotto. Off the charts. Turbot with beautiful sides. Then fillet cooked perfectly with creamed spinach. My wife had the cheese to finish off and I’d an amazing chocolate fondant. Quality superb and certainly value for money. Would highly recommend it. Places limited to 15 people on the terrace. I’m going back next week!

Had a meal in Asador last week for a celebratory occasion - it was excellent in all regards. We had starters, main courses and desserts and everything was delicious. Steaks were perfectly cooked and extremely tasty. The service was also great - we were made feel very comfortable weren't waiting long for anything. Looking forward to returning to Asador next time I have an occasion to celebrate! It was a great experience from start to finish.

I had butternut squash for starter which came cold unless it was meant to be cold .
Ribeye steak was good but not great for the price. Chimichuri was just oil with few leaves !
I would prefer if steak came with small salad or garnish .
Almond tart for desert was really good.
And restaurant is beautiful and staff is great but I would not rush back for the steak .
Bondiola across the road is nicer for steak !

Hi lollaianna,
thank you for your recent visit and for taking time to write us a review (and advertise our neighbors 😊)
Butternut squash is meant to be served at the room temperature and our steaks do come garnished with chips or salad and sauce of your choice.
We do appreciate your feedback and complements on our team.
See you next time!
Kind Regards,
Asador team

Asador falls into the category of restaurant where I have never had a poor or bad meal. And one that merits my annual strong recommendation.
This is a super-popular barbequed meats restaurant in the popular South City suburbs and is great for lunch and/or dinner. Special anniversary/birthday occasions.
Some people consider the menu options to be on the 'light' side, but I strongly disagree. There are up to 8 starters (you need to try the dressed crab), 10 main courses (fillet steaks are superb) and multiple desserts (I am not a fan since they got rid of the tiramisu although there is a chocolate cake option that has some appeal) options. Certainly not 'light' by my experience of restaurant menu's
The cocktail bar, wine (and beer) choices are wide-ranging. Some of the wine prices could be viewed as expensive but there are many bottles from Spain & Italy that are well within the price range you would expect in a top-class restaurant.
The staff are attentive and make you feel as though your business is appreciated. So many restaurants fail this test.
A class and experience above many of the restaurants around Dublin that have a 'reputation' that is 'bought' through advertising rather than the 'experience' - eg Sole, Fire etc. So for visitors to Dublin who want something special at 'fair' prices, give yourself a treat and visit Asador
