Tābú in Thomastown

Our Mother's Day meal that we had planned for months. Reviews about this restaurant are misleading. Food was average at best. I had the steak which may be the worst piece of beef in existence. Note to owner, if you are going to have beef on the menu and charge a premium price, aquire a better grade of meat.My wife and friends were equally disappointed in their selections. Service was friendly but the most disturbing part our the evening was the pace of service. There were only 3 other tables being served and the timeing from kitchen was ridiculously slow. We came 3000+ miles for a disappointed evening.

The tapas are amazing! The restaurant is clean. It feels like you’re in someone’s living room overlooking the garden.

The kind of restaurant that every town should have. But Thomastown is lucky to have a restaurant of the quality that a city deserves. Impeccably prepared food by an ambitious, adventurous and truly skilled chef. The friendliest and most competent service. A truly wonderful, family run place of joy. Go there!

We stumbled upon this hidden gem on our way south, and wow, we couldn't be more in awe! Truly incredible selection of dishes, all mastered to perfection. We tried the duck wings, patatas bravas, sandwich, tacos and bao buns. All were 10/10! Absolutely gorgeous.

Met at the door with a pleasant welcome, so good start, server's excellent, details of food to the point, now food was absolutely delicious,hake I highly recommend you can taste the ocean off this fish 👌👌👌

Very very good! Mexico in Ireland! And a very warm welcome, we had a great time 👍

Great food, and very nice friendly staff. Chef even came out to ask if we enjoyed everything. Main portions are really generous so be careful! Highly recommend.

Brilliant food with good ambience. Definitely must try if you are in Thomastown. It is conveniently located beside a parking lot, you might need to wait a little bit for a spot if it’s busy time. Pity I did not take pictures but will definitely come here again.

Been trying to get in for months but we work the weekends too sooo We ate here on the Feb Bank Holiday Monday evening. Host was professional yet country charming and efficient and warm. We were seated at table 1 and the 3 of us decided to go tapas....the next 2 hours was nothing more than food heaven!! The passion, flair, flavours, the detail and for me most importantly was the pure honesty in each and every dish was unbelievable 👌 tabu, what ye do is unique and pls never stop it. Oh and keenly priced. Can't wait to go back

Absolutely fabulous. Keep up the good work 🥂👏
