Brilliant dining experience in a beautiful setting.
Staff are warm and welcoming, and provided excellent service throughout the evening.
The meal itself was top notch, beginning with appetisers (blue cheese salad and Burrata), followed by mains (Hake and short rib), and finished with dessert (cheese cake and berry crumble). One of the best meals we’ve had in Ireland. ☘️🇨🇦

We booked Petronella for our wedding and couldn't have been happier. The setting is, obviously, stunning. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind, as we managed a disgruntled lurcher and six month old. And the food was sublime. Everyone raved about it in our wedding party and were very impressed. We will be back in the future without question.

We had our wedding reception here and booked the restaurant for private use. It was a beautiful evening with amazing food and top tier service. I can't thank the staff enough, everyone was so friendly and made us feel very at home. Nothing was a problem for them. The setting is also stunning and I would reccomend Petronella to anyone looking for an intimate venue to celebrate a special occasion. Tino and his staff were fantastic, as was Bee who helped set up our wedding reception and ensured our 6month old was well catered too. We will definitely be back!

Every aspect of tonight's meal was 5 stars. The food as always top tier. The service was impeccable, and the atmosphere makes this place the hidden gem of Kilkenny.

Celebrated mother's day here. The place is cozy and beautiful located n a historic building. Food was okay, but nothing exciting. Staff were very good and attentive. A good dining experience. And book a reservation!

The staff were super warm and welcoming on arrival and the interior of the restaurant was so beautiful. The food was delicious, my two friends had the beef and I had the chicken. The chicken was on the small side for the cost but was tasty. I would have loved a proper red wine glass but that’s minor! Will definitely be back and the staff were so friendly.

What a fabulous experience. Tino and his team went all out to accommodate food allergies and intolerance. We were so delighted with the whole experience of eating their fabulous food in a fantastic atmosphere that we want to recommend this restaurant as the Nº1 place to eat in Kilkenny city. We will definitely be back next time we're in town.
