Goldie in Cork

We had a great meal at Goldie. An early dinner slot made for a quiet relaxing experience. In the background one can see and hear the constant thrum of the team at work in the open kitchen. The server was friendly and knowledgeable. Both the pan fried Megrim and John Dory were exceptional. The highlight was the Rossmore Rock Oyster Pate starter - in truth we'd never come across oyster pate previously but it was Wow. A must have. We were pointed at an excellent Portuguese white wine (made from the Arinto grape). By way of constructive feedback - I understand the need for restaurants to maximise returns from the wine list. I bought a case of the same wine for €13 per bottle all taxes and delivery included. Goldie charged €47 before service charge. That is quite a markup, and was one of the cheapest wines on the list. Putting that minor quibble aside we had a very pleasant evening and will return. Highly recommended.

I wish the food size were doubled 😭😭 Everything else was perfect just the portion a lil bit small

Food, atmosphere, music all great. Service was perfect. Highly recommend for an anniversary dinner.

Fabulous. Magical dishes bursting with comforting flavours that dance on the palette. Genius creativity fantastic on the eyes and splendid on the tongue. Every dish was perfection and beautifully presented. Colcannon is a must. Brilliant happy crew and great atmosphere highly recommend a visit to Goldie if you are visiting Cork.

Goldie never disappoints! If you're visiting Cork or from Cork, goldie 100% has to be on the to do list. The food, services, drinks are always 10/10. Have been going to goldie for years and the standard has never changed. Great team and service inside there. Would highly recommend. Whether you want a full 3 course meal or sharing/tapas style dining, its suits every occasion.

What an experience absolutely beautiful food the effort the flavours the wine the atmosphere was just spectacular. Natalia is just the most amazing person explains every dish every part of the menu. I loved every second the chef should be so proud the food was Devine. What a special place well done guys you don’t get many places in the world serving food at this standard. Pure Heavan ❤️

This was our first time visiting this restaurant and we were pleasantly surprised. Our server, Allen, was amazing. He was knowledgable, friendly, humorous and helped us make the perfect menu selections. The food was truly exceptional. From the appetizers, to the entrees and desert, this place did not miss a beat. We highly recommend and cant wait to return!

Second time here, visited Sept 2024. Still so excellent - love the concept. One of my fav restaurants in Ireland. Wonderful warm service too

Had dinner with my partner here and really enjoyed it. Very good seafood, high quality and well prepared and presented. Recommended

I know this place is a favourite for many, including several of our friends, and I can see why; the food was beautifully presented, and the service was excellent. However, for a restaurant that usually requires quite a wait to get a reservation, I expected a bit more from the overall experience. While the seafood was fresh, both our main dishes featured white fish and ended up tasting quite similar, which made the meal feel a little less special. The dessert, unfortunately, was slightly burnt and not as enjoyable as we’d hoped. Overall, it was a decent experience with great service, but the flavours and variety could be improved to match the restaurant’s strong reputation and high expectations.
