We had a group meal the day before our wedding in Mountain View in Kilkenny and this restaurant was the perfect spot to kick things off. The food was delicious and compliments to Gerry the chef. Hidden gem down one of the old lanes in Kilkenny city centre.

This place has it all! Great service and excellent food in an incredible setting. Both our servers were perfect. The meals delicious, and as mentioned, you can't find a cooler restaurant interior! We have been all over Europe and eaten in some really unique places. The building housing Petronella is absolutely amazing - historic, picturesque, and intimate. It's down a small alley, so easily missed by most. Make a reservation in advance.

Not just for a birthday meal as it happened to be for me. Couldn't help but recommend Petronella. From moment checked in for our meal, attention to detail, friendly and professional staff in stunningly chilled surroundings and final thanks to manager. A wonderful night for me and my wife. All that and you'd almost forget the fantastic food..a must if you enjoy great food, great service in a beautiful restaurant.

What an absolute gem of a restaurant in Kilkenny. Make sure you make a reservation in advance!
The rib roast dinner I had was one of the best meals I have ever had! My terms of reference for this statement comes from extensive travels throughout the world.
There is a very deep history with the location of Petronella and the ambiance is so warm and inviting.
Finally, the service was excellent!
