Restaurant Review - Amai by Viktor
Wednesday 24 September 2025
“Just knock three times and whisper low, that you and I were sent by Joe,” from the old song Hernando’s Hideaway, came to mind as we approached the new Amai by Viktor on Dublin’s Harry Street. Set on the first floor over The Corkscrew Wine Merchants, spotting a notice pinned to the door downstairs, I, of course, jumped the gun and instead of ringing the indicated doorbell, headed into the wine shop!
However, instead of being made feel like a mutt, a charming chap guided me through ‘the secret entrance’ up the elegant curving staircase, past a striking black mural of an African woman, by the chef, to a chic room with a bar area to the front and a larger dining area with a long banquette to the rear.
