Glenroyal Hotel & Leisure Club in Maynooth

11/11/2024: What a delight of an Italian restaurant! The place came highly recommended by 2 friends who are regulars there. In particular we heard great things about cocktails and pasta carbonara. The place has a nice warm atmosphere that welcomes you as soon as you enter. There's a nice feeling of a proper Italian trattoria. Staff is kind and very attentive. Menu very large and full of things that we were delighted to find as they are not that usual. As I was designated driver that night I opted for a mocktail and found it really really nice. A very nice warm bruschetta was my starter and I really enjoyed it. I am not sure whether they didn't add the anchovies that were supposed to be one of the toppings or they just melted in the mozzarella but the final result didn't suffer. I am told the prawns were delicious. When it came to the main, I preferred to opt for tagliatelle with mushrooms & gorgonzola as it's a combo that I really really love. They were very good and also a lot of food. Our friends were so nice that they allowed me to try the carbonara and I must say it is as enjoyable as they described it! I wish we managed to order also a dessert but by the end of the main we were all too full to have more food. Definitely a place we'll want to visit again.
