    A foreign friend of mine has asked me for a recommendation of a good Irish food restaurant in Dublin to bring some visiting tourists to sample Irish food!

    Errr..... To be honest I haven't a clue. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    While technically not a restaurant, Johnnie Foxes always has a good atmosphere & Irish music.

    Restaurants that serve good Irish produce would include the Winding Stairs, Hot Stove Restaurant or even L. Mulligan Grocer or W.J. Kavanaghs.

    I personally wouldn't take them near any twee Irish tourist traps like Temple Bar or Johnny Fox's.

    It's a while since I was up in the Big Smoke, but how about The Pigs Ear in Dublin 2?

    Great ingredients, put together well.

    The Farm on Dawson St is pretty nice, and great value with the early bird menu.

    Matt The Threshers on Pembroke St has some quality seafood dishes.
    It was good enough for Michelle Obama when they came here.

    Not really a restaurant, but the Porterhouse in Temple Bar. Took my Chinese wife there last year when I was visiting home and she loved the oysters and beer.

    Haven't been there myself but Hatch & Sons on St Stephen's Green might be what you're looking for. Described as an "Irish kitchen", detailed review here: http://frenchfoodieindublin.blogspot.ie/2013/03/hatch-and-sons-15-st-stephens-green.html
