OPTP Takeaway in Castlegregory

03/05/2026: We were glad to get a last-minute reservation for a large group, and overall really liked the restaurant and menu. Some people in our group really enjoyed their meals. However, a couple of dishes, the prawn linguine and the halloumi linguine were unexpectedly very spicy. While chilli was listed in the ingredients, the level of heat wasn’t obvious from the description. When we mentioned it to staff, we had to ask for a white/Alfredo-style sauce to try and tone it down. It was brought, which we appreciated, but there was no apology or check-back. One person in our group ended up barely eating their meal, and no one asked about it, which was disappointing. It would help future diners if the spice level was made clearer on the menu, especially for dishes where it’s quite prominent.

We shared the fried squid as a starter and they were the best we’ve had. Incredibly juicy and lemony so tasty. I got the salmon fillet with mash and veggies and it was 10/10. My girlfriend got the linguini with prawns which was also incredible. Extremely friendly staff, good price for great food and the food also came unexpectedly fast
