La Cosa Nostra

It's a small but very cute and nice place. We came here by accident while walking around the city. But they didn't regret it at all. I served it very quickly. Hospitality is at a high level. And a special thank you for the food - it's like you've really been to Italy. Everything is very tasty and affordable. Thank you very much)

Very good food, I think the best thing we got was the buffalo cheese pizza, the fried risotto balls and the bruschetta. Tasted all very homemade and fresh. Staff were very appollagetic on taking a while as they were having a party out back I think.

I've eaten here a number of times now, and the food is consistently delicious, the restaurant is clean, the staff are friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy, but comfortable even for such a small efficiently allocated space. I really enjoy the pizzas (beautiful dough and huge) and the pasta is fresh and so tasty. I love the arancini starter. For dessert, tiramisu is quite good, though my favourite is the simple, delicious affogato.

We had a early pre gig dinner a couple of weeks ago. The restaurant is small creating a homely vibe. The food is outstanding. There was five of us and each of us raved about our meal. This will be our stop going forward before a Vicar St or Olympia gig.

Great Pizza! Naples themed restaurant. There is some nice seating as well if you rather eat here. It definitely was a cozy place to spend a November evening. We had the burrata is was delicious and they cook it in a stone oven in front of you!

We stopped in today for the first time and it will not be our last!! The staff are so kind and friendly and Oscar was an absolute gent. The food was amazing and with dietary requirements nothing was to big of an ask. I honesly can't recommend this place enough. The restaurant is beautiful, the food is amazing, and the price compared to other restaurant's in the area is out matched. We can't wait to come vist again.

A little slice of Italy right here in Dublin! You don’t have to wait long to get your pizza, and what a pizza! Truly delicious and authentically Italian. The service from Amanda and Niccolo was excellent, and to finish, the tiramisu was absolutely perfect. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!

I was very hungry after a long days work, I came here and was greeted by the lovely staff, and by the smell of gorgeous food. I ordered the Carbonara , came out in about 10-12 minutes, but it was sooo good! Creamy, lovely pasta, the meat was super crispy! 10/10! Would highly recommend. About 7 or 8 tables in there so you shouldn’t find it hard to get a seat. When I went it wasn’t too busy.

Really enjoyed our time in La Cosa Nostra. Pizza was the stand out of the meal. However all dishes from the starters to the pasta and risotto was lovely. Would highly recommend! Very reasonably priced too. Our server Nicolo was superb! Looking forward to our next visit already. Shame there wasn’t a gluten free option for pasta of pizza but that’s a minor flaw.

We had a truly fantastic evening at La Cosa Nostra. We had an evening meal with our two children (10 and 13 years old). The atmosphere was so authentic and so family friendly. The staff were incredible and made us feel like family. The food was absolutely delicious and we enjoyed everything. Next time we visit Dublin we will return. Thank you-you made our last night in Dublin perfect.

One of the best pizza experiences I’ve had, right here in Dublin. Coming here was a spontaneous decision, and it turned out to be the best idea after visiting the Guinness Storehouse. The pizza was fantastic, made according to Italian tradition by a true champion who has brought his expertise and passion to Dublin. The place is filled with pop culture pictures and memorabilia that remind you of the richness of Italian culture. Dana and her crew work hard with big smiles on their faces and truly deserve great respect.

The taste of the food and all ingredients send you back to Italy. From all italian restaurants I have been to this one is the BEST!!!❤️

We went in without any expectations, but the food completely enchanted us so much so that we had to come back again the very next day. Very friendly service. An absolute recommendation for anyone visiting Dublin.

Went to dinner here with my husband and my sister and it was amazing. The owner is straight off the boat from Italy and she and her team make everything fresh!!! Her place felt so warm and charming and at the end of our meal she brought out lemoncello for us like a true italian. Thank you so much again and see you soon! Highly recommend this especially for Italian food in Dublin it’s the most authentic

What a great restaurant! I need something different than Pub food after two weeks of travel and they didn’t disappoint! Amazing food and the atmosphere was so cute. The signs on the walls made me laugh. I was by myself but didn’t feel alone! A definite must do when you are done with pubs!

La Cosa Nostra is a cozy little gem in Dublin. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel very welcome. We ordered pasta and pizza, and both were absolutely delicious—full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The restaurant is small but very cozy, perfect for a relaxed meal with great food and excellent service. Highly recommend!

Stumbled across this restaurant during a trip to Dublin. A fantastic experience, with one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had and very welcoming and pleasant staff. Incredible prices too. I will definitely come back, and would highly recommend for anyone to try.

Incredible cappriciosa. Great atmosphere and you pass by the kitchen before going through the tables which is a nice touch. The staff is attentive and accommodating, and we really feel they're proud to work there. The vibe will want to come back for sure!

Stumbled on La Cosa Nostra when I was walking around Dublin and conveniently on my way to another pizza restaurant I had read about and decided to stop in. I'm glad I did as the pizza was exactly like what I had in Italy, and the waiter was kind enough to speak to me in my semi-poor Italian and was very kind to let me practice. Highly recommend for authentic Italian food.

I really like the decoration of this restaurant, and the seafood pasta is also quite good! The staff are all very lovely. Thank you, I will be back!

Top food as always lamb cutlets cooked medium.. always great service actually the best service .. thank you lorenzo the best service and surprise at the end

Excellent italian food. The burrata/prosciutto and pizzas are amazing and the service is excellent

"This thing of ours" a truly Italian experience in a stunning new restaurant in the liberties, the wall adorned with pictures of old mob bosses and a genuine L'autentica feel, staff are lovely and the food is top quality, the pizzas are on a different level and it won't be long before it will be hard to get a seat here, the bar has been set by "The Family" and just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in 😂😂

Had an amazing time in this little and cosy newly opened restaurant. Sorry, the pizza was sooooooooo good, we had no time to make the pic. The best pizza we had in Dublin. Delicious steak, salmon and pana cotta. We will definitely be back.

We ate here twice in 24 hours! Had pasta and salmon for dinner and a delicious spicy pizza for lunch the next day along with the tiramisu. Service was wonderful both times and food was delicious!! Highly recommend!! We have no photos of the food because we ate it so fast!

Excellent pizza. Make a reservation if you can. They told us they were out of coke zero, but several parties that came in later were all served Coke Zero. That felt a but bizarre, but it wasn't a deal breaker.

October 2025. Had the pizza for take away. Great crust and toppings. Very friendly staff! We laughed a lot ordering the pizza and watching the gentleman make the pizza in their oven was a treat. Really enjoyed the experience.

Very well done to "La Cosa Nostra". There's nothing me and my friends didn't like. Great food, lovely atmosphere, amazing staff. Pizza is very good and truly Italian!! The desserts are delicious as well, the cheesecake must be my favourite. The place is cute and cozy, nicely decorated, and is based in the vibrant Thomas Street. The staff is incredibly kind and very welcoming. We will definitely come back 💗

My gosh, stumbled in here on a whim… what a place! The food is amazing, the service fantastic and the ambiance is stunning. Not the place to go if you want the best instagram review but if you want an amazing Italian meal with great service, please don’t tell too many people, there are so few restaurants left like this gem!

Amazing Resteraunt! They happily accommodated a large group of us (11 people) with no hesitation. The staff are really friendly and kind and the food is delicious! Pizza’s were 10/10. Massive thank you for our great experience! ☺️

I came here with my sister out of curiosity, and we recieved a warm very warm welcome by Alessia the waitress, that gave us the best service we had in a while, big smile and precision with our food necessities. The food was amazing, pizza, cocktails and desserts all top notch. Not a big fan of the Mafia theme, but the toilet jokes in the restroom were really funny and overall very cozy place. As Italians, weraccommend this place 100%.

We were last night for the first time. Everything was perfect, food, service, ambience 👌 I also liked good written signs in the restaurant, it was just my thing! Thank you for good service from the guy and really good pizza (I can say number 1 in the area 😉) and we will come back!

Brilliant authentic Italian restaurant. Staff friendly and accommodating. Food was amazing and the atmosphere just what you want for a lovely family dinner. Highly recommended.

This pizza was one of the best I've ever eaten outside of Italy - wow. Don't hesitate to eat here. Unfortunately had too many appetizers, so no more dessert :-( That was a shame, because they looked so good.

A LITTLE GEM. Delicious pizza (though pasta looked tasty too), fresh salad, yummy cocktails. Super friendly and excellent person serving us, originally from Italy. Attentive to allergies. Great find.

Nice Italian restaurant, good service, very nice Carbonara. Tiramisu was a bit disappointing as the biscuits were quite dry. I do not understand why any Italian restaurant that I go to does not play Italian music??

Really good quality of products. The staff were really helpful and honest. He was explaining where do they get their fresh products and recommended what to have for dinner. Pizza was very good (tomato base, dough and products). We had tiramisu for dessert. You could tell the primary product was mascarpone and not cream. 100% would recommended this place.

I'm italian and I think this restaurant is stunning. The ambient is beautifull and the food is really good. I will recommend this restaurant if you want to try a real italian experience.

Maybe we got a bad Friday night but the service wasnt good at all. Two waitresses running around non stop so it really wasnt their fault at all. So many people kept coming in without reservations and the waitresses were focusing on telling them to wait while so many of the current people in the restaurant were waiting for plates to be cleared or for drink orders to be taken. We got our starters after 20 minutes. It took 35 minutes after we finished our starters for our mains to be brought out, after id ask would it take much longer as we had a show to go to. No one checked up on us and came back with water we requested. Pizza was lovely but the carbonara was not the authentic roman carbonara. It was really congealed and the pasta definitely wasnt fresh pasta. 18.50 for this, you would expect better quality. Again the waitresses were lovely but there needed to be more staff on. Strange but maybe its happening everywhere but adding 1.5% onto the bill to pay by card was the first ive experienced in dublin anyways

The pasta had a BUG in it. The waiter took out if the bill only one pasta (both plates were of the SAME pasta💀) and told us the bug must’ve come from outside, not from the kitchen because they had pest control a week before….so they did have bugs…. It was clearly cooked💀 and this pic was taken at the beginning before starting eating, but we noticed it later They have 1.5% extra fees for card payments..
