Three stars because we found Land to Sea significantly overrated given recommendations, and the combination of food quality, service and price. We went here on the basis of its Michelin recommendation, which in our experience has been usually very aligned with our tastes and expectations. This was a rare miss in this regards. The food was good, but nothing spectacular and overall sort of bland. This comment does not come from one "off dish", but cut across all 6 dishes we ordered. Moreover, the service and atmosphere was pretty standard. Like several other reviewers, and locals who we shared with afterward, we remain perplexed as to why this restaurant receives such high accolades. Frankly, we have had many better meals in the last few years across Ireland and elsewhere at a lower price. Indeed, there are at least two places within a few blocks in Dingle that meet this criteria. In the end, when asked for dessert and already confronted with overpricing, we opted for ice cream down the street.

We had great expectations, went for early bird menu as times suited.
Menu was deceiving, had a glorified
sausage roll for main course. I honestly can't get over how poor it was.
Overall for €45 pp it was very disappointing (no drinks).
I am used to eating at nice restaurants however this was a shocking waste of money (terrible).
We won't be returning.

My husband and I must have gone to Land to Sea in Dingle at a very good time. We really enjoyed our meal and we did the tasting menu. Keep in mind that this was previously a Michelin star restaurant so the presentation is an important element and a tasting menu is meant to allow the diner to enjoy multiple dishes without feeling bloated. Portion size is not as important as taste and appearance which were fantastic during our meal. The waitstaff was a bit on the short side so we enjoyed a leisurely meal with reasonable pacing. Really fantastic meal so I feel bad if the kitchen and front of house were not up to par for other diners. I definitely recommend dining here if you want a special meal.

Unbelievably great food. I would give it a 10 out of 10. It is a Michelin recommended restaurant and it did not disappoint.

We had the 6 course tasting menu, which was delicious. I asked for one substitution and they were happy to offer several options. Lovely atmosphere and friendly service.

We were excited to check this out based on the reviews, but found everything to be rather mediocre.

Really great place, went there for my birthday and brilliant food… softest juiciest pork I’ve eaten for a long time! The croquettes were really creamy and the monkfish starter was delicious. Hake was really nicely cooked too. Nice flavour combinations on all dishes. The deserts were lovely as well! There were somethings I had never seen before but they tasted great! The staff were lovely. My dad really liked the bread they served before the starters and had been looking for a recipe for similar bread for ages and he asked them and the chef came out and gave him the recipe! Very nice of him. Overall, really good food!
