Imperial Bar in Cavan

23/03/2024: We were so looking forward to dining here as a real treat for ourselves. We were greeted by lovely staff as we arrived and seated straight away. The decor and ambience was really cosy. Our food was where the disappointment started. I ordered the T bone steak from the specials board along with vegetable soup. My wife ordered a starter which she enjoyed as I did with the soup. When the mains arrived my wife's duck was overcooked after being specifically told that the chef cooks the duck pink but she ate it and enjoyed it. My steak immediately struck me as if it was defrosted with a microwave and then cooked. After tasting it I had to send it back. I was offered another t bone, sirloin or fillet steak. I opted for the fillet. It was cooked to my liking but with no seasoning, but it was a nice piece of meat. We then got dessert (after a 30 minute wait). The waitress offered us a drink on the house due to being a mistake in the kitchen which we accepted. The desserts were ok at best. For what we paid it was not value for money from the food end. We will not be back.

21/03/2024: Food was absolutely delicious. Fresh. Beautifully presented and tasting perfect. Staff were professional, yet friendly and welcoming. I can't wait to revisit and highly recommend
