Set tables under paper lanterns in the timber-lined dining room at Kaldero

Dublin's first Irish-Filipino restaurant, led by storytelling

Listed in the Michelin Guide, Kaldero comes from the team behind Bahay, chef Richie Castillo's Irish-Filipino food project. Kaldero means "pot" in Tagalog.

Woven rattan pendants over terracotta banquettes beside the open kitchen at Kaldero

Located on South King Street, Kaldero blends the flavours of Filipino tradition with Irish ingredients and open-fire cooking, all rooted in family recipes and the creativity of Ireland’s multicultural food scene. Richie and Alex, the duo behind Bahay, bring a bold, honest, and deeply personal approach to food, drink, and hospitality.

The menu is made for sharing - pulutan-style snacks, flame-grilled meats, and soulful sides - paired with cocktails inspired by Filipino ingredients and memories.

The space itself is vibrant and welcoming, featuring art by Southeast Asian and Irish-Filipino artists and a music-led atmosphere that reflects the community around it.

More than a restaurant, Kaldero is a place to gather, connect, and celebrate identity. As part of Eclective, we’re proud to support Richie and Alex as they open the doors to their first permanent home.
