"Transport yourself to Italy at this authentic osteria in the heart of the city, where light pours over the tightly packed tables and plants line the walls. Both Irish and imported ingredients feature in the rustic, no-frills dishes, with homemade pastas like spinach and ricotta cannelloni a particular highlight. The service is led by eponymous owner Mirco, who brings a chatty approach to this lively little spot." - Michelin Inspector

"Arriving in Cork from Italy as a teenager, fresh out of catering college, Mirco Fondrini served a 14-year apprenticeship in the English Market’s Farmgate before finally opening Da Mirco, where his impeccable hospitality does more for the ambience than any decor ever could. Food is as it should be in any osteria: homey, hearty, and complemented by a cracking Italian wine list and some good Irish craft beers. The menu ranges from fish to house-made pastas to bites like the pillow-soft focaccia with speck, olives, and salame Valtellinese from near his Italian home village. For dessert, chocolate salami with cream never fails. [$$]" - Joe McNamee

Loved Da Mirco, went for a special occasion and it was the perfect spot! It was €39 p.p. for our starter and main, I got grilled squid to start, and couldn't resist trying the lasagne for my main course - both were outstanding! Great ambience and very attentive staff, looking forward to a future visit already!

Best TIRAMISU in Ireland! (Didn’t have time to take a picture hahah) As Starter we got the charcuterie board and Halibut salad which was delicious and it is now my favourite salad in cork. I got the pasta w/ zucchini and mint, and it was a great surprise. Success. The other dessert, Pain Perdu, w a sorbet was delicious. Can’t wait to be back. Troppo bono. Grazie.

Me and my boyfriend booked into Da Mirco for his birthday and couldn’t have had a better experience! We rang ahead to ask about vegan options and they said they would be able to make something vegan if we mentioned it in the notes of our online booking 🌱 The service was amazing, checking in just the right amount. They made me a vegan starter of foccaccia with pickled and roast veg on top - delicious! Vegan main they offered a few pasta dishes or risotto, I went for mint pesto pasta with crispy fried courgette on top. They also have vegan lemon sorbet for dessert. 🤩

Wonderful experience, gorgeous food and great service. We had lovely carpaccio, monk fish, pasta with pesto, and the best panna cotta we ever had. Also the focaccia is stunning. I recommend it to everyone who visits Cork.

I've eaten here twice on one trip to Cork. Excellent Italian food both times. Very tasty main courses and the Tiramisu was also delicious. I did not try the wine but authentic bottled beer was good. It's a cozy restaurant and can be quite busy. I recommend it and will come back on subsequent visits to Cork.

Great spot for authentic Italian cuisine. Service is exceptional. We had a couple specials - octopus starter and halibut main - both excellent. Also the lamb pasta was delicious. The real standout for us was the dessert, a flourless chocolate cake with almond and caramel. Has to be one of the best desserts I’ve ever had.

We spent a lovely evening at this restaurant. We tried the tasting menu with wine pairing and we were not disappointed. I really want to thank Mirco and all the staff for the attentive service and the great food. Definitely recommended.
