Michael’s Italian, South County Dublin

Michael Lowe opened Michael’s in 1999 and has been looking after the locals of Mount Merrion ever since.

Michael’s has recently been given a new lease of life, with new chefs, a new concept and new food. At Michael’s the focus is on serving home-made, natural and fresh Italian cuisine.

The essence of Michael’s Italian is simplicity and taste in abundance. No doubt that the major influence comes from Italy, but a broader Mediterranean flavour finds it’s way into the cooking at Michael’s. What’s more, underlying every dish at Michael’s is a no compromise attitude to the basic ingredients that they use.

INGREDIENTS

Michael’s places huge value on the importance of using the best, seasonal ingredients and keeping it simple, fresh and most of all tasty.

Using local Wicklow day boats to source the freshest shellfish and seafood, Michael’s have a huge desire to bring you the best seafood that Ireland has to offer, including our Crab claws, which are caught in small boats, and cracked by hand by a team of Wicklow housewives, and delivered to Michael’s the same day.

Michael’s beef is the best that the Famous Maurice Kettyle has to offer, Aged in Salt Moss Cave for a minimum of 31 days and finished it off in Michael’s own meat room, until it’s just ripened. Their Veal comes from John O Reilly, who is well known for supplying Mount Merrion with the finest meats from his long standing family run butchers, a mere few metres from the restaurant.
