Friendly staffTasty foodSeafoodAtmosphere
Food is top class. I had a memorable meal with 4 friends recently. All were very happy with the food. My lamb was delicious.
The wine selection is excellent, but one would need deep pockets for the top-end offers.
Staff are knowledgeable, professional and friendly.
Lovely find on a sunny Sunday with one of the kids and wife.
Really tasty food. And decent value.
The prawns were lovely even though I wanted the oysters. This was not told to us by the server until I ordered. Good substitute though...
Lovely staff bar one surly individual.
Was disappointed to hear another server offering the specials to another table after we'd ordered. Felt a bit left out after that.
Apart from that negative it was the perfect end to a great Sunday.
We celebrated our 30th anniversary. We had a cozy table just the two of Us. This was our last night in Ireland. The staff was extremely friendly and polite. The food was phenomenal, outstanding. The staff even surprised us with our desserts. The next time we're in Ireland we will definitely be coming back. I highly recommend this restaurant.
