This month WILDE opens at The Westbury just off Grafton Street to add to the plethora of restaurant options in the area.
This is sure to be a hit with those of you who like to hark back to the past with 1930s interiors and a touch of elegance.
There will be dining here from morning to nigh for all occasions : Aperitivo on the terrace, long lunches, dinner dates and celebrations with friends.
The space will be opened up to become indoor-outdoor during the summer months and in the evening the terrace can be heated or closed in so that you can snuggle up with Donegal Woollen Mill Herringbone throws.
The chef Sandeep Singh’s menu includes a lot of seafood and beautiful Irish seafood at that with Carlingford Lough oysters and Lobster from Wrights of Marino in Dublin.
The business customer might be tempted by the Express Menu with three courses for €25 until 5pm Monday to Thursday.
The dessert menu at WILDE echoes the modern ethos of Sandeep Singh’s menu. Guests can enjoy signature options including a crème brûlée with honey madeleine; valrhona white chocolate and tonka bean panna cotta served with sour cherry jelly or a pear and praline cake. For those with less of a sweet tooth, a selection of Irish cheeses has been carefully selected for the perfect end to dinner.
“Our food philosophy at WILDE is about simplicity and respect for ingredients. We seek out the best artisan and local suppliers and create dishes that allow the quality of the ingredients to come together in exceptional dishes. Coupled with our approach to food, we want to offer a dining experience in a unique space that is beautiful and atmospheric. We’re in the heart of Dublin 2 and believe WILDE is the perfect viewpoint from which to take in everything the city has to offer.” said Sandeep Singh, WILDE Executive Chef.
In addition to the glamourous dining space, WILDE is home to a cocktail bar, with sumptuous button backed chairs, serving crafted aperitifs, signature gin & tonics and digestifs.
