Lignum in

Everything was really impressive from start to finish. The attention to detail throughout and customer service added to the incredible food.

A truly extraordinary dining experience, from the food to the atmosphere and the service. Everything is incredibly well thought out and meticulously executed by the brilliant staff. Dishes were bursting with flavor. I was very well catered too with a shellfish allergy. If food is your thing you will not be disappointed.

Everything about Lignum is incredible. The garden, the atmosphere, the architecture and that’s before you even get to the amazing dining experience. The food is out of this world. Every element of each course is meticulously thought out and prepared and served in such a beautiful manner, that you feel each and every course is as important as the next. The service is outstanding, attention to detail on every level. As someone who doesn’t drink alcohol, the non alcoholic cocktails were delicious and given the same importance as everything else served to our table, which was very much appreciated. We’re looking forward to returning soon.

So refreshing to have no menu to pick from just cooking with what is in season.Do go for a walk in the vegetable garden when your food is grown within 200m of were you eat it is truly local. Food is exceptional ingredients simply prepared and enjoyed at there peak. Well worth a visit. Techno jazz in background surprisingly soothing.

Had a wonderful experience last month! Visited to celebrate my mums 70th and it was the best way to celebrate this milestone. Food was super interesting and tasty, staff was super attentive! We had the set menu on a Sunday and everything was cooked to perfection 👌

Absolutely fabulous – a refreshing new take on Irish food and dining. We took my wife here for her birthday and chose the Sunday lunch menu – everything was perfect from start to finish. From the moment the four of us arrived, the atmosphere was calm and welcoming. The gardens, the stunning building, and most of all, the warm and genuinely lovely staff made the experience feel special without being pretentious. Even the owner picking the ingredients for her herbal tea was super special... oh and the desert was incredible... The food? Simply outstanding – beautifully prepared with top-quality ingredients. We’ll definitely be back!

Possibly the most enjoyable dining experience I’ve had in an Irish restaurant. The setting, the décor, the atmosphere — all 10/10. Every one of the 16 tasting courses was beautifully presented, with flavours and textures that were clearly planned with exceptional care and creativity. It’s honestly hard to pick a favourite, but standout dishes included: The tomato and basil The lamb tartare The lobster The ‘pizza’ The crab If I had to find a tiny fault, it would be the duck dish — personally, I found it a bit too meat-heavy and felt it could have done with either a touch more veg or slightly less duck. That said, I still really enjoyed it. The sommelier helped us choose a delicious bottle of Chablis, and every member of staff was friendly, attentive, and highly professional throughout. I would’ve booked a table years ago if it weren’t for the challenge of finding nearby accommodation. This time, we stayed in a lovely Airbnb just a 10-minute taxi ride away — I’d definitely recommend arranging accommodation when booking your table. Really looking forward to returning before the end of the year.

If you're considering, just go, you absolutely will not regret.

Had Sat lunch and it was a lovely experience. The location and ambience is really magical- lots of stoves burning, soft furnishings and great space between tables. Food was delicious- every course was perfect- loved the mussel snack and the filled pasta was sublime. Even the oyster, which I am not a massive fan of was delicious. This is a real treat and would definitely recommend for a unique experience. Wine was lovely. Service was pleasant without being intrusive or over the top. Could really see the passion in the young chefs as they presented their dishes. Our only regret was that there was nowhere to stay onsite after such a pleasant, relaxed afternoon!

A wonderful restaurant surrounded by the garden where the food is grown, I read another review saying it was messy, it is very much a working garden designed for produce rather than beauty. We loved Lignum, course after course of local produce the fish from Galway. We filled in the form at the time of booking about our allergies so were greeted with all the courses carefully considered to avoid gluten and Tree nuts. All cooked with respect to the ingredients over flames. Our two teenagers loved it and the challenge of eating foods they wouldn’t normally consider- but everything delicious and plates which kept arriving all finished off. Highly recommended, Will definitely be returning.
