Opened in August 2021 in Ballsbridge, Mae Restaurant focuses on Modern Irish Cuisine and Considered Wines, owned and operated by multi-award winning chef Grainne O'Keefe. Mae has been included in the Michelin Guide since 2022. "This cosy first-floor restaurant is hidden above the French Paradox wine shop, which not only gives it an appealingly secretive feel but also makes opting for one of the interesting wine pairings a wise move. The tasting menu begins with delicate snacks and fine daily-made sourdough, before offering a choice of main course and dessert. In game season, you'd be foolish to miss the exquisitely cooked sika deer and the tarte Tatin is Chef-Owner Gráinne's crowd-pleasing signature. The chefs show not just skill but generosity, so you'll leave feeling full and satisfied." - Michelin, 2024
