The Best Seafood Near Table Forty One, by the Record

  1. Down a country lane in rural Wexford, this cheerful restaurant earns its Michelin Bib Gourmand with a seafood menu that's practically a family operation: the chef's father fishes off Hook Head, the gardens out back supply the vegetables, and crab and lobster show up as a matter of course. The owners run the room with the kind of warmth that's hard to fake, and if you're staying over, the bedrooms come with hot water bottles and home-baked cookies.

    Modern Seafood

    A dockside building in Grand Canal Dock split between an industrial-chic cocktail bar with a DJ and a calmer dining room where you can watch the kitchen work from the counter. The team spent years doing festivals and pop-ups around Dublin before landing here, and the tasting menu leans hard on Irish seafood, native blue lobster and day-boat sole among them. The kind of place where the room feels thought through rather than thrown together.
