Ever since it opened in 2021, Note has been interesting. Located in a mini flatiron building on Fenian Street, it’s as stylish a space as you’d expect from owners Andy Collins, of Indigo & Cloth in Temple Bar, designer Ahmad Fakhry and his brother, Essa Fakhry, the opening chef.
Over the years, there have been one-off collaborations with the likes of P Franco, Wildair, Max Rocha of Café Cecilia, and Cúán Greene, and there have been good people pouring the wines (alumni include Katie Sewell of Frank’s and Laura Chabal of Comet). I have eaten some fine food here.
