Heron and Gray, Michelin-starred restaurant in Blackrock Market, Ireland
Heron and Gray was a restaurant with only 24 seats located in Blackrock Market. It served innovative tasting menus that changed regularly based on what ingredients were available each season.
The restaurant opened in 2015 under chefs Damien Grey and Andrew Heron and earned its first Michelin star in 2017. It closed in 2019, after which the space was taken over and transformed into a different establishment.
The restaurant worked with Irish ingredients and modern cooking methods, showing a commitment to local food sources. Diners experienced menus that demonstrated how contemporary techniques could reinterpret traditional Irish flavors.
A visit required an advance reservation and a deposit of 100 euros per person, which was credited to your bill. The dining experience lasted about three hours, allowing time for a relaxed meal.
After the two original owners parted ways, the space reopened under a different name with a new direction. The successor maintained a similar focus on Irish ingredients and contemporary cooking.
