Captain America's also has Larry's original (?) drum kit suspended from
the ceiling. Food was good - as I recall we had some decadent chocolate
thing cuz we'd been shopping all day and needed to recharge. :-0
This restaurant is upstairs with a street entrance somewhere in the
Grafton street shopping area.
  
Tosca is in the same area. Laura G and I had an excellent meal here
one night. They were running a special where your meal cost was based
on the time you ordered. We ordered at 6:02 so our meal cost 6 pounds
2 pence. :) CA IS more casual. Tosca has sort of a minimalist
decor with local (?) artists displayed. Rather elegant but nice.
  
BTW - in nearly 3 weeks in Ireland we only heard U2 music once. :(
And that was in the Guinness store after we had toured the Guinness
factory. They were playing JT. Go figure.
