About

Saba – meaning “happy meeting place” – is Dublin’s celebrated Thai‑and‑Vietnamese eatery and cocktail bar, renowned for its award‑winning cuisine, inventive cocktails and lively, family‑friendly atmosphere. Located in the heart of the city on South William Street, it offers an authentic cultural experience complete with a bustling “Secret Garden” patio that welcomes diners year‑round. The restaurant has expanded across three venues – Saba Baggot Street, Saba Kildare Village and Saba South William Street – each delivering the same high‑quality menu, friendly service and inviting décor. Whether you’re craving spicy curries, fresh noodle dishes or a perfectly mixed drink, Saba’s culinary team guarantees a memorable, flavour‑rich adventure that keeps locals and tourists coming back. Guests rave about the vibrant ambience, from the relaxed Baggot Street corner to the scenic Kildare Village terrace. The combination of locally sourced ingredients, award‑winning mixology and a welcoming staff makes Saba an ideal spot for casual meals, romantic evenings or lively night‑life sessions. Reservations are highly recommended during peak times, especially around holidays and special events, though walk‑ins are still welcomed. For those planning a visit, a typical dining experience lasts around two hours, giving you plenty of time to savor multiple courses, sample the cocktail bar’s specialties and explore the base‑camp picnic style booths or the cosy Secret Garden. With consistent service, great value and a bright, airy setting, Saba remains one of Dublin’s top choices for cosmopolitan cuisine and relaxed entertainment.
