Top Best French Restaurants in Skerries

"The room feels a little stuffy at The Greenhouse but the food of Finnish chef Mickael Viljanen is all wildness and adventure.

Things are not always as they seem, like celeriac roasted to make it look like aubergine, but they are always delicious."

"Mikael Viljanen is a Finnish-born chef who’s called Dublin home for 20 years and has been manning the pass at The Greenhouse since 2012. Lauded for his precise, clean culinary wizardry, his restaurant was elevated from one to two Michelin star status in 2019 and remains one of the best places to eat in Dublin."
