The Greenhouse was an upscale dining establishment situated on Dawson Street in Dublin, Ireland. Founded in 2012, it received its inaugural Michelin star in 2016 and maintained this accolade until 2020, when it was elevated to two stars, joining an exclusive group of four Irish restaurants with such a distinction.
The kitchen was under the direction of Mikael Viljanen, a chef originally from Finland, who remained at the helm until his departure in May 2021 to assume the role of head chef at Chapter One. The restaurant was owned by Eamonn O'Reilly, a well-known Dublin restaurateur.
Although there had been anticipation for Michelin recognition as early as 2013 and 2014, The Greenhouse only achieved its first star in 2016. With a seating arrangement accommodating around 40 patrons, it was celebrated for its sophisticated culinary experience. The restaurant ceased operations during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and had not resumed service as of February 2022.
