Variety Jones Dublin 8 Reviews from The Last Year
Amazing food, great atmosphere!
Visiting with 2 friends we were made welcome immediately. Service remained attentive but never intrusive. The food was fantastic, particularly enjoyed then initial 4 small tasters to start, and the crab dish. We arrived at the 5pm sitting and were there for 2.5 hours, never rushed at all. It’s possibly the best atmosphere I’ve had in a Michelin place, vibrant and chatty.
Disappointing service
5 stars for the food but 2 stars for the service. We went in for the dinner tasting menu. Portions are on the shared basis, relatively small as you would expect for this type of establishment but satiating. Definitely left full. Also food was tasty and interesting. Opted for the pairing wine. The sommelier was top notch, very friendly and knowledgeable. The problem was that the food portions being small they went quickly and I’d still have most of the wine in my glass. The second we swallowed the last bit of the dish, we were asked if we were done, plates removed and the next second had the next wine poured into the glass. We couldn’t enjoy the wine experience as was constantly rushed. Had to chug the wine most of the time. Not great at all… On top of this after we’ve paid, bill being handed without asking for it, we were immediately and literally kicked out. Not the Michelin star experience I’ve experienced elsewhere. Wouldn’t be interested in returning.
A well-deserved star
Star, completely deserved! The staff is incredibly kind, the menu is imposed and so much the better We had an amazing time from start to finish. Thank you.
Unknown excellence
Nobody knows about Variety Jones! Truly a hidden gem. Michelin starred, but very reasonably priced. The room is small, and the service is exceptional. The food did not blow us away, but it was tasty, and substantial. The wine pairing was competent.
Best night out ever
I cannot think of ever having enjoyed a meal and a night in Dublin out as much as i did last night in Variety Jones. Keelin, Kathleen and the rest of the team were terrific ... and the food and the wine pairings ... well ... WOW!
Surprised with hype
A little overhyped for me. Went for tasting menu with wine paring. It is cheaper than other Michelin starred places but produce is on cheaper end and cooked well. Wine pairings were the same! Not very many you’d usually go for or care about again. They have a lovely story but that’s where the culinary adventure ends. Very surprised it has a Michelin star myself and one or two of my friends thought also. All the ladies thought the chef was incredibly handsome so could be worth going for this reason! I myself won’t be rushing back.
VJ’s exceptional experience
I recently celebrated my partner's birthday at Variety Jones on Thomas St, and it was an exceptional experience. The friendly host warmly welcomed us, guiding us to our table. The delightful sommelier impressed us with a fantastic selection of wines. The attention to detail in VJ's cozy and intimate ambiance made it a gastronomic journey and a truly worth-it experience. Thanks for a memorable evening!
Dinner at Variety Joned
Had an amazing meal here. Food was so good all fresh ingredients cooked in front of us as we were lucky to have the top table. Flavours were really good with lots of herbs and spices. We had the wine tasting also and our server was so knowledgable about the wines. Overall a great experience
Fabulous
Amazing meal in Variety Jones again. Everything was wonderful from the greeting to poor Valeria having to chase us twice because we forgot our belongings! The food, the ambience, the paired wine and the service. We loved everything and will be back and can’t recommend highly enough! GO!!!
Memorable experience
We had a very special meal at Variety Jones during our trip to Dublin. Definitely a memorable experience with excellent food and a nicely curated wine paring - appreciated the quality and quantity of food (come hungry) and generous wine pours. Staff was extremely friendly and attentive.
Gluten free dinner
The food was beautiful and most of it was amazing especially the first starter plate. However, being gluten free is becoming more and more common but there was no alternative to bread or the pastry part of the dessert which left my partner feeling a bit uncomfortable as he ate his. I couldn't have the pasta dish everyone else had but I got a plate with whole entire shrimps and rice with jalepenos, carrot and popped rice which was a bit of a weird combo and didn't enjoy it although it looked pretty on the plate. When i have been to places the same as this with a set multicourse chefs choice menu i have always been made to feel totally equal to everyone else but not here unfortunately. Didn't feel like the staff really wanted to hear any feedback as they took my shrimp plate without asking and felt like they talked over my partner at the end before he could get his words out to say how he felt. Also took the tip card machine thing away before we could leave a tip so had to leave a bit of cash. We are a bit on the conflict avoidant side and some of the staff seemed to be too which made it awkward unfortunately.

Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Payouts
Anyone can help with payouts, support hasn’t been helpful at all. My funds cleared and I can only retrieve $50 usd a day with a $5 fee and a % per transaction. It would take so long and so much in fees. Thanks!
Give the best answerDoes support work ?
I am having a tough time contacting and elucidating a response from AT Support. I had a listing at 6pm, which was a mistake as the actual listing reservation was at 11pm. This got somehow approved by AT, and a customer bought this from me for 6pm. I want to cancel this listing and refund customer , but there is no way of doing this ! This is so frustrating and making me lose hope on AT. Can someone help me please?

Banned from Resy for selling reservations- Do we have a rat on our hands???
I am new to this app and started off by selling a polo bar reservation and then quickly sold one more reservation. Not long after I received emails from Resy saying all my reservations are cancelled and I am being banned from Resy for life. How could this have possibly happened without a rat telling Resy that I sold the reservation. I need some advice on this situation and let’s catch the rat!

I have a big ongoing and it also shows someone is working on my bid. Today I see there is a " Buy Instantly " option at my portfolio showing same price I've bid for a reservation. I'm a bit confused, since my money has already been deducted from my credit card for the bid, do I need to pay one more time for the Buy Instantly? If I choose Buy Instantly, can I cancel my bid ( while someone is working on it )? Thanks!

You can only deposit $50 at a time until you earn the “Sales and Low Refund Medal” I believe. Im new to this as well but the ability to deposit more money at once and increase your amount of listings comes with that medal.
