   Food was beautiful, staff very attentive. Children were given colouring things and seen to first. Really enjoyed our meal here!

   I want to start by saying the staff are so lovely and friendly, the review does not reflect on them at all. Our experience was not enjoyable in the slightest, ordered chicken wings to start which were really nice and came out quick too. After the wings we waited a long time for mains, they finally came out and the lamb shank was SOLID it was honestly like a brick the knife wouldn’t even cut through it, so my partner sent that back and asked for the same as me (fillet steak) I started eating my meal , this was also really bad somehow it was fatty and really chewy and had a very strange taste like it was cooked in old or dirty oil, the mash was also very grainy, it was just a disaster. I genuinely took a bite from the steak and left. I advised the lovely young man that greets you when you arrive of the situation, he removed the lamb from the bill and I paid for the drinks, wings and steak, looking back I should have refused to pay for the steak as I had a bite of it it was en edible I shouldn’t have had to pay for that €66 for 2 drinks and wings basically. Will not be back

   Food was very poor. We were sat at table took drinks order then proceeded to say no steak or market fish. None of the food was finished it was very poor. Nobody came near table for another drink. On paying nobody was asked was everything alright as they already know the answer but happy to overcharge for poor food. Oh and we didnt see no "private booth" it was a table with sea view.

   Hi Michelle, I am extremely sorry to hear this happening and very disappointed and upset that it happened. I have tried to contact the number you supplied on the reservation every day since but no answer. This is something that Very Very rarely happens here, if ever.. We pride our staff in being extremely pleasant and helpful and attending to all the customers needs for a enjoyable experience. Following on from this feedback I will be begetting ALL of my front of house staff trained professionally in a customer service in person course. I would like if it was possible for you to give me a call back, so we can possibly try make an arrangement for you to come back and let my staff prove how excellent they truly are. Thanks, Oisin.

    You will not get better food in a more pleasant atmosphere any where. The food is wonderful no matter what you choose on the menu A special mention for the fresh oysters I have never had better. If Michelin are reading this please check this food out because I have had worse in some of your resteraunts
