Caffe 500 in Carlow

To eat the best carbonara, you don't fly to Bella Italia, but to Carlow in Ireland!

Very nice food sorry amazing food service amazing staff very nice particularly Marta and Luca as always have time to have a little chat without causing delay the only thing is seats tend to be a bit uncomfortable depending on where u are sitting but precise from that very very nice restaurant

First time in Cafe 500 this evening and will definitely be back. Loved the decor and the friendly staff. The food was delicious

La Comida era Rica 😘😘😘 I'm definitely coming back for more❤️❤️❤️👌👌👌👌

I ate here this evening and it was a great experience. As someone who's travelled extensively through Italy and her Islands the food reminded me so much of what I got over there. The porchini ravioli was gorgeous, rich and full of flavour without being over the top. The portion sizes are perfect if not slightly too big, pasta is filling and don't forget that when you're looking at what's on your plate. The prices are very reasonable too with €16-€18 for a main meal and some bottles of wine for about €27. If you enjoy the genuine Italian experience in Ireland I highly recommend. If you don't understand or don't feel like you can be accepting of the genuine Italian experience don't come here, it's not for you and don't be a wagon about it, it's beautiful.

Excellent Italian restaurant to remember, generous portions. Highly recommended.

Beautiful food and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. We try to eat here everytime we are in Carlow. If you like good Italian food then this is the place

Lovely staff Gorgeous food .would highly recommend

Staying in carlow for a couple of days went to cafe 500 for an Italian to say it didn't disappoint..the sharing board was perfect for 2 Italian meat and cheese lovely pizza and pasta staff very nice.

Would recommend it to italian food lovers. Im just not one of them and little to no alternative. So if you enjoy italian food it's the place for you.
