Tippenyaki Restaurant | Rathmines
County Clare
At a glance
Tippenyaki Restaurant is a Japanese and Asian dining venue on Castlewood Avenue in Rathmines, Dublin. Its menu centres on teppanyaki and sushi, combining food cooked on an iron grill with cold Japanese dishes prepared from fresh ingredients. The restaurant also highlights Irish produce, including steak and fish sourced from Dublin markets.
The teppanyaki experience places diners around the cooking grill, where chefs prepare food in front of the table. This gives the meal a lively, social character and makes the cooking part of the occasion rather than something that happens out of sight. The format suits diners who enjoy an interactive meal, as well as groups looking for a shared evening with a clear sense of occasion.
Sushi provides a separate focus for the menu, with a selection intended to complement the cooked dishes. Teppanyaki and sushi together give the restaurant a broad Japanese offering, ranging from grill-cooked Irish ingredients to lighter rice, fish and vegetable-based choices. The setting is geared towards evening dining, with both live-cooking grill tables and standard dining tables available.
Tippenyaki is located in Rathmines, an established south Dublin neighbourhood with a mix of restaurants, cafés and local businesses. The address is 39 to 40 Castlewood Avenue, Dublin, making it a practical choice for an evening meal in the area. Visitors travelling from County Clare can include the restaurant as part of a Dublin dining stop, particularly when a theatrical cooking format is preferred over a conventional restaurant meal.
Because the live-cooking grill operates through arranged sittings, advance planning is useful. The venue publishes separate sitting times for teppanyaki and standard tables, and reservations are required for parties of six or more. The restaurant is suited to birthdays, group meals and relaxed social occasions, while the standard tables provide an option for diners who prefer a conventional seated meal. Booking details, including current availability and any requirements for a particular table type, can be confirmed directly with the restaurant.
