style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">Ahead of its launch on September 25, a press release described Entrec\u00f4te Dublin as part of the \u201cbeloved French institution\u201d, with locations in Paris, London, New York and more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">The statement led to widespread confusion, with numerous media reports that Dublin was getting an official branch of the famous chain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">The restaurant, which held its grand opening on September 25, had earlier sparked confusion when a press release implied it was affiliated with the internationally known French Entrec\u00f4te group.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">However, the international chain later denied it had any link to the new Dublin restaurant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">It has since emerged that Entrec\u00f4te Dublin is merely \u201cinspired\u201d by the French-dining experience in the original restaurants, such as Le Relais de Venise: Son Entrec\u00f4te.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">Since opening, Entrec\u00f4te Dublin has operated on a walk-in-only basis, serving Tipperary-sourced steaks with the restaurant\u2019s own version of the classic French sauce, accompanied by hand-cut Irish fries.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Entrec\u00f4te Dublin has confirmed it is 'closed for a brief time'\"

founder behind the Dublin venture, previously clarified the restaurant\u2019s position, stating: \u201cEntrec\u00f4te Dublin is a new independent restaurant offering a French-inspired dining experience, no bookings, high-quality steak, unlimited fries and so on,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">\u201cEntrec\u00f4te Dublin is not associated with similar L\u2019Entrec\u00f4te \/ Entrec\u00f4te restaurants around the world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">\u201cThere are many separate operators inspired by a similar concept, which originated in France.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">\u201cWe would like to clarify that while we were keen to convey the influence of the well-known concept on the offering, Entrec\u00f4te Dublin is an independent business and looks forward to continuing to provide this concept to Dublin diners,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The PR firm handling the opening of the Dublin restaurant has since released a statement noting it
