Not sure about how culturally sensitive it is to have this post in the "UK/England" section of Dining, but will add my comments below for the sake of taxonomy...

Enjoyed a very good meal on Friday night at Eden in Meeting House Square, near Temple Bar. Reservations almost essential I guess, but good food, good service, relaxed pace (over 2hrs - they weren't rushing us). Good wine list, bill for 2 of €100.

I believe it's what they call modern irish cuisine - think smoked haddock in a creme fraiche sauce topped with cheese, or braised knuckle of lamb with root vegetables.

Decor reminded me of a municipal swimming pool meets 1970's office, but 1) I wasn't there for the room and 2) I'm sure it was all the rage in interior design when the place opened 10 years ago or so.

Verdict - i'd go back!
