Man Friday in Kinsale

Have eaten here for the last 40 years. It ages like a fine wine , just gets better and better

As a coeliac who gets so anxious eating out, the staff were so kind after asking for reassurance regarding their gluten free bread. It’s really really good! The food was incredible and the view was beautiful. Thanks for a lovely evening.

We made reservations well before our trip to Kinsale and were looking forward to a really nice meal. When we arrived our party of four was seated next to the bar and entrance to the toilets. We asked if we could be seated somewhere not so dark on a lovely summer day and were told we could not move. Then we proceeded to sit for over twenty minutes before any server engaged with us. Also our seat was next to the hostess so there was zero chance they did not see us. When our server came we wanted to order drinks and an appetizer and the server told us we needed to order everything then as if to rush us out. We waited quite awhile for our food and in this time I did ask for another beverage which never came. When I asked the server about this she laughed and said, oh I guess I forget from here to the bar! When the food finally arrived most of our party thought their food was fine. I however had the shorts ribs and they were so fatty I only managed to find a few bits to eat. Really disappointed by this experience. This restaurant didn't live up to the hype or expensive price point.

Ate here the other night with my friends and everything was 11/10! The food is unreal. We had steak, lamb and hake and each dish was delicious. The atmosphere is stunning and the survey is excellent too. Highly recommend.

We had dinner here last night and the service was fantastic and very polite. The staff interact with all the customers and seem to enjoy their work quite alot. This is a huge positive for restaurant. The food was nothing short of amazing. To start i had the red pepper soup. For main I had the lamb and for dessert I had the meringue. The soup was very flavorful, a great start to the meal. Up next the main of lamb, it was very tender and just delicious. To top it off then was the meringue, so light and fluffy. Hats off to all involved. With the weather we have been having, this evening dinner was topped off with one of the most beautiful sunsets across the harbor that I've ever seen. Needless to say but we will most definitely be back.

This place is absolutely perfect. The staff are so kind, friendly and attentive. The food is to die for and extremely reasonably priced considering the quality. The atmosphere is also incredible, the decor and views are beautiful. They were also very accommodating and knowledgeable of food allergies in our party, including great gluten free and nut free options. Will be recommending to everyone I know.

The setting here is just delightful, with fantastic views of Kinsale! 🤩 The food was absolutely delicious 😋, and the service was so lovely. The Spanish waitress really stood out for being super friendly and attentive. 👍 Highly recommend! ✨

Staff were absolutely fantastic. Bathrooms were spotless. Food fab over all, but left down by veins being left in the prawns.

Fantastic Food, Service and views. Celebration with our kids, the obliged with a candle and a dessert with a happy birthday song!

Great restaurant, a short walk from the downtown Kinsale area. Had the 8oz sirloin steak and lobster bisque which was quite good but my wifes hake fish was top notch. Definitely worth a visit!
