Small but mighty. Not for an empty wallet but if going out to experience something new and try new stuff it's great. Staff friendly but unobtrusive. Food fantastic and stuff you definitely aren't making at home as it's much work to make that art. Saving up for the next round

Flawless tasting menu with the perfect pairing of wine. A must try! We ended the dinner feeling happy, satisfied and not overly full, which is always a risk with this type of food experience. We found the pace to be perfect. We never had a dull moment. There was a perfect cadence of: bring the wine, explain the wine, allow a few minutes to enjoy it, bring the new course, explain the course, taste the course, clean, bring the new glass & restart. Toward the end of the dinner we started noticing how they adapted seamlessly to the pace of every table so that it felt they always left exactly the same time in between stages while they clearly weren't. Very smooth. Luis has great storytelling and a very good sense of humor that brought lightheartedness to the dinner, something that we always like and made us feel super comfortable. In fact, while it's clear there a lot of work went into preparing the dinner and then in serving it, I would never call this a "fancy dinner". It just didn't feel so, which means bonus points for me. All the 7 wines served were very interesting and tasty. Some were even surprising (like the first, which was a sweet wine!). All the courses were an explosion of flavour, often presented in surprising ways and the base ingredients were clearly very good. If I have to call out one single area of improvement, I think the finale could be improved. I found the mini madeleine of the petit-fours underwhelming. I then lacked a strong taste to end, something like coffee as they don't have decaf (they said they are getting a new machine) or a spirit (I think they only have wine & dessert wine)

We had an absolutely amazing night, the service was spectacular! The food was amazing! Luis knows his stuff, you can see he’s passionate! The food is 5* The taster menu was a real treat for 100euro. The wine paring was fantastic but we did feel for 70 euro each it was a little bit steep for what we got. Nevertheless,it was a amazing! Luis has a great team and you can see he really cares about that he does! Will definitely be back again if we can get a table !

Viking Hotel Waterford

02/05/2025: The food is amazing I go here for lunch a lot
30/04/2025: Stayed here last night with family, and the rooms were fabulous. We booked a family room and it was absolutely amazing, so much space and very modern. The beds were really comfortable. The staff couldn't have been nicer, very friendly and welcoming. Especially the young lads behind the bar. Breakfast was superb, the staff at breakfast were great with the kids and went out of their way for them. The dinner in the restaurant was gorgeous and very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for families. Very pleased with our stay 😊

31/03/2025: Great Staff, Great Pub, Great Venue 👌
03/02/2025: Definitely the cosiest and friendliest pub in Waterford - the little snug with the fire is beyond compare. Great selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks with superb recommendations from Tom and the bar staff. Gigs upstairs are unreal. Best value glass of wine in a crystal glass ever!
