Salt 'n' Pepper in Galway

23/09/2024: I tried to go to the Gaslight Brasserie, but when I got there they said it was closed. Google said it was open! I’m giving it 5 stars for honestly gaslighting me.

16/07/2024: Myself and my husband ate at the Gaslight on Saturday evening at 8pm. We were married in the hotel in 2018, but lots of change since then. The new layout to the Gaslight really feels much more like a restaurant with the bar no longer so close to you in the middle. It seems logical to have it as a more luxury dining experience, then Oyster bar for a drink, or MacNeils for more causal dinner and drink. It made so a much more intimate setting. We requested a window seat, and were given a beautiful booth. Sitting at 8pm, it was still glorious outside, and the restaurant was filled with light which was beautiful. Staff were friendly and attentive. The menu and food itself really has had a massive relaunch! We were wowwed with each course. The presentation, attention to detail, and such bursting fresh flavour was fabulous. For starters we had Oysters, Sea Bass crudo and Beef Tartare. All delicious! For mains I had a cod & prawn mosaique with saffron risotto. An unexpectedly hearty portion, so well presented. My hubby had the fillet of beef, which he declared better than a few top eateries around, very high praise indeed! Well done to new Head Chef Dominique Majecki and team on an exciting fresh start!
