Butcher in Kilkenny

Excellent. Well-kept place, courteous staff. Excellent raw materials, treated with respect. The meat was among the best I have ever tasted around the world and cooked as it should be. The cocktail and dessert were also excellent. We would return if we ever returned to the area. Without a doubt recommended

Fabulous food . Staff were friendly and efficient 5 stars 🌟 all around from me.

Had a beautiful meal in Butchers Restaurant. Was welcomed at the table from the owner. Our meal was delicious, the steak was fresh and mouthwatering. With the precise amount of seasoning. Atmosphere was buzzing, great vibe. Really enjoyed our evening and will most definitely travel down again for more!!

Amazing food and drinks. Not a negative thing to say about this place. Try to get a reservation if you can

We had a great evening - the food was amazing and the staff made sure that everything was perfect. Thank you! We highly recommend it and we'll definitely be back.

Excellent service . I didn’t have a booking and the place looked full on a Saturday evening . The guy in the desk found a spot for me , said have to get table back within an hour which was fine . Steak was brilliant

Great Irish atmosphere, arriving as a tourist the normal service. However if you don't like hanging around, apparently there is a service on order or when you arrive you are served directly. Personally we took the first choice and no regrets.

Lovely restaurant, genuinely one of the best steaks I've ever eaten. Staff were friendly and efficient and looked after us very well.

Absolutely gorgeous meal from start to finish. All the starters looked and sounded delicious, but when we knew what a feast was ahead we shared a wings to start which were really fab - "proper" chicken wings! We opted for a cowboy steak, fillet steak and our daughter had a farmer burger. The steaks were cooked to absolute perfection! It's fair to say we are fussy customers and the quality of the steak was just out of this world. We ordered an array of sides and I can say the side salad was supreme - a meal in itself! Definitely there is no need for more than one side per person with a steak or burger...order a selection, the portions are really plentiful. My only gripe was that on a previous visit I was placed on the outskirts of the restaurant so my husband called to see if we could be more in the centre and while he was told no tables can be assured, which is restaurant policy, I understand - but we were placed by the toilets. The table was fine, but it was a special night for us and this kind of led to a bad start... BUT... it was such a beautiful meal it didn't matter. Thank you so much and we look forward to next time. Service was also five star *****

Top class as always, we skipped starters although I did notice the mini taco’s which are delightful were not in the menu ? The steaks were fantastic , 3 of us had 3 different steaks and the were all excellent . You pay for quality and the food , service and asmosohere are all top class. Sides are huge and need refining or a suggestion of sharing. Our waiters were element and whilst I always feel we over change for wine in Ireland they have a distant range of very drinkable wines in the low €30’s range. If you are a first timer you will go back, we travel regularly from Carlow, it is worth the excursion. Whilst the probably do have a vegan or vegetarian choice my suggestion is this is not for you, every other restaurant is for you . Probably the best steakhouse in the south-east it not Ireland but very hard to get a booking . Don’t change anything and with the reduction is Vat coming it will be 4.5% cheaper going forward .
