Saturday night dinner, Dublin City centre with children

[Strongamericanonosugar]

Could anyone suggest some nice places to eat with children on Saturday evenings please? We will be around the D1/2 area.
I very nearly booked Little Pyg in the Powerscourt Centre but then realised they don’t let kids in after 6… due to our plans we won’t be able to eat until 6:30/7ish. No particular budget, but hoping to go somewhere other than McD’s/Pizza Express.

I've left Dublin a long time but when we visit with the kids we do Bad Ass Cafe, Captain America's or Eddie Rockets.

Gotham Cafe might suit.

A second for Gotham

We eat out later with kids a lot. Las Tapas De Lolo was great - staff loved the kids and we felt like we had a nice grown up dinner while the kids still found stuff they liked (patatas bravas/ croquettas etc)

Smokin Bones - couple of locations in city centre. Elephant and Castle too.

Dunne & Crescenzi, Gotham Cafe, Isabelle's are all good options

Brilliant thanks for the recs!

I would suggest the Gotham as well. A lot depends on the food they like, though.
