VALUE
“Another terrific night at JD’s. Been coming here for many years and we still enjoy our visits. Great food at affordable prices.”
DEREK B., TRIPADVISOR
“Have been coming here for over 10 years whenever I get to Dublin, 6-8 times a year. Very broad menu with excellent service.”
TADGH, TRIPADVISOR
Atmosphere is the one score that lags behind the rest (3.6, against 4.2 for food and service) – reviews describe a straightforward, no-frills dining room rather than a polished one. What stands out instead is repeat custom: several reviewers mention 10 or more years of regular visits, which says more about the food and value than any design award would.
