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 thought i visited all the good italian restaurants in dublin, but was mistaken. This little place is great, amazing pasta and desserts. Tables next to rafiators a bit too warm though ;)

Absolutely love this place. Perfect for tasty authentic Italian food in a relaxed atmosphere. The staff here are terrific with children, very friendly and attentive even when it's busy. I will definitely be a regular here.

Salt n pepper calamari without the salt n pepper. bruschetta while the flavours were good, the bread was soggy. And the pizza was average at best. Pretty disappointing overall. Waiter/waitresses were nice

We arrived without reservation on a very busy Saturday evening and were kindly accommodated by the lovely staff of Il Corvo. I forgot to take pictures of the food until dessert but my goodness it was a gorgeous gorgeous meal. I had the most delicious...Surf and Turf Pappardella followed by a white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake dessert. I relished every bite and will definitely return! Also my husbands dessert of ice-cream and Amaretto was very generous with the Amaretto too.More

We visited Il Corvo on Friday 23rd June and enjoyed a lovely meal. However, that is the end of the praise. When paying the waiter he was hooshed away by managment who stepped in to take payment. After two failed attempts with my husband's credit...card I offered mine which were were also told did not work. It was obvious this person had'nt a clue how to use the credit card machine and eventually the situation was rescued by another manager who told us they would ring us when cashing up. Later that night they rang and said the meal had been paid for THREE TIMES instead of the normal once. They apologised and said we would have to return the next day to get a retund of the mistaken payments. Il Corvo - a restaurant as experienced as yourselves - in business since 1992 - this should not be happen!!!! it made a large dent at the end of our evening,the inconvenience of having to return and the inconvenience of delayed refunds. The fault was all on your side and quite frankly it would serve as a reminder to us in any future visit to your restaurant. Get your act together, and please only allow trained staff to accept payments, and don't blame shortage of paper, and lightening strikes for your inadequacies. This experiene of Il Corvo for us was very very poor and all so unnecessary!More

Great atmosphere! The Best Italian food I’ve had in Ireland. Great people I had the Penne chicken and Chorizo. (Honestly the people that write a bad review of this place have a person problem)

We came for a quick dinner. I had the vegetarian papardalle with garlic, broccoli and spinach. At my request they added chicken. My daughter had Creamy garlic and Tuscan Shrimp Pasta, which she really enjoyed. We arrived at about 6:20 pm, without reservations but were...seated immediately. The service was prompt, the food was good, the portions were just right, and I would definitely return.More

This is a well established restaurant, in our experience the food was good (which is what is most important) but the service was less than average. The management needs to put a bit more effort in.

The service was excellent. Really attentive, professional and polite. Food was great overall. My chicken arabiatta was flavoursome and not just tomato sauce with some added chilis as it is often presented. The jumbalaya also had a lovely smokey taste. I mean it’s not a...cheap place by any means, and although everything was yummy I think they are stretching it a bit with some of their pricing.More

This was undoubtedly, one of the best meals my friend and I have enjoyed in a long time. We shared the Brie to start, followed by Octopus and Monkfish/Scallops. We shared Tiramisu for dessert. The flavours of each dish were sublime, and every course had...just a slight twist on the norm. Altogether a beautiful meal washed down with excellent wine. Great service and a very pleasant setting. Highly recommended.More

Dined at Il Corvo last Saturday Saturday 28th of Jan 2023. Ordered a Bruschetta to share as it was priced at 12.50. It was average to be kind. I had a main course of Chicken & Mushroom Pasta at 22.50 and struggled to find small...pieces of poor quality chicken. My wife ordered the dish of the day. It was described as Seabass served with prawns (3) saute potatoes and some other veg. Unfortunately it read better than it looked and taste wasn't very good . The Seabass portion was about the size of your average fish finger and again poor quality. We didn't order deserts as we were so disappointed we couldn't wait to leave. When paying the bill I was hoping to tell the waiter what we thought but as we were not asked if we enjoyed the meal we didnt bother. I will not be going there again.More
