My husband and I spent two weeks traveling Ireland, throughout our entire trip, this was by far the best meal we had.
We ordered the Wild Venison Pate and Heritage tomato salad with local goat cheese as a starter and the Kerry Lamb and Dingle Hake with asparagus as our mains. It was all so beautifully prepared, we almost didn't want to eat it! The quality of the ingredients, love and care behind each dish is evident. We finished our meal with the Burnt Baby Guinness; Baileys Creme Brulee and it was exceptional.
We've been to many good restaurants all over the United States and Ireland, and this experience was one of a kind!
The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, while still being very lovely and upscale. Very reasonably priced for how sensational the meal and the experience were!
Julian is an incredible chef, and the staff was fantastic! We'd give this place 6/5 stars if it were available, best restaurant in Ireland, let alone Dingle.
Do NOT miss your opportunity to eat here!

Thank you to Katia for finding us a table on a wet and windy evening. What a find. Family run with Katia head of house and Julian Wyatt chef. Their menu showcases local produce. We had fresh oysters to start. Beautifully fresh, sweet & plump. My husband had the lamb and I had the pork loin with red cabbage flavoured with juniper. Both absolutely delicious and for the finale the Dingle Honey and Dingle whiskey mousse with Honeycomb and Sea Salt Ice Cream with apple ice wine. The perfect end to a fabulous dinner. Thank you

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.
