    We were there before. Outstanding food, mussels to die for. Portion of the mussels this time was 2/3 of the size then last time. I went home little bit disappointed as I was really looking forward to this meal.

    King Sitric’s food was excellent and the waitstaff was friendly and knowledgeable and efficient. We enjoyed the experience and would definitely return. It was a short walk from the Howth Station. We had lobster that was extracted from the shell for cooking then returned for presentation. The crab claws were excellent as well. Staff were friendly and explained cooking techniques.

    What’s not to like? Fresh local seafood from the wild Atlantic and the Irish Sea. Good selection of whisky. A long history (1971) of local sourcing and happy dishes. My daughter’s hot chocolate picky but loved theirs. I couldn’t write a review to do King Sitric justice, just make a reservation, show up, it won’t let you down.
