The best restaurants

01/09/2025: I really love Kyoto Waterford, but I’m taking a couple of stars off because every single time we order chef’s selection of sushi (even the larger portion), it only comprises of nigiri & never any maki or uramaki. It’s really frustrating (I like the mix of types, but nigiri is my least favourite). This hardly represents a variety or selection. I had thought that maybe it was because they didn’t want to prepare a whole maki roll & o my use some of it in the platter, but they use a couple of pieces per bento box, so that’s not the reason. I really wish they would change this, or at least actually call it what it is: Chef’s nigiri selection, not a chef’s sushi selection. As it stands, it’s very misleading. If they remedied this, it’d be 5 stars from me.

01/09/2025: Extremely lovely staff. Excellent food and plenty of it for a reasonable price

13/08/2025: Uno de nuestros “antiguos favoritos” - de hecho, mirando hacia atrás revisamos en 2019 y por varias razones no había vuelto en mucho tiempo. Encantado de encontrar este restaurante ha encantado una vez más con un maravilloso almuerzo relajante - comida excelente - Servicio excelente - ambiente como siempre excelente! Precio muy razonable incluyendo un humo de Pouilly muy decente para complementar nuestra comida.

13/08/2025: Love that place, and the whole neighborhood. I was just passing early in the morning and it was the only one open so decided to get a coffee before my appointment. Unreal coffee, best chocolate croissant ever and customer service was beyond expected. Loved the ambiance of the place, the music, the menu looks delicious and definitely will come back for brunch/lunch.

16/10/2025: Lovely hotel in a fantastic setting within an easy commute from Dublin centre. Good pool and fitness centre also Only slight negatives were for such a great location our view was of a brick wall and also the prices were a bit much. We would have spent more time in the hotel however when a Guiness and a wine were nearly 22 euros we decided to eat and drink elsewhere

14/10/2025: Beautiful hotel, excellent service, rooms, and food. Location was near Dalkey village, train station, and lots of hiking areas.

14/08/2025: Honesty is always the best policy, so here goes; Eddie Rocket's empties poCKets 🤝🏽 Izzy is management material & bring back the outdoor seating 🌌 #BeBetter ✋🏾

30/08/2025: A decent Doner kebab, 20/20 with congratulations to the guys there

13/10/2025: Unfortunately, you're assigned a seat, but you can ask nicely and then you can sit somewhere else. The food and dessert were delicious, although quite expensive, but it's worth it. Thank you.

13/07/2025: Nice staff, great food, nice place. Catered pleasantly for my son's peanut allergy. Meatballs were divine. My gluten free pasta was a little overcooked, and so was mushy, but unfortunately, that's a frequent occurrence everywhere. Overall, it was a great meal and I'll be back

10/06/2025: Lovely welcome nice beer good tunes playing also serve breakfast

14/10/2025: service is nice they gave me a free pokemon card the donuts are best in Galway a tiny bit expensive really nice recconend to pokemon and donut fans

11/10/2025: We wanted to have seafood while in Mayo but were worried about gluten free options. Talbots had a seperate menu for celiac/gluten free food and thr staff was very understanding. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I got food prepared as I liked while my husband got regular food. We got the seafood chowder with gluten free bread, the seafood platter (gluten free except we opted to have the battered cod on a seperate plate bc my husband wanted fried fish with the gluten batter). We also had the gluten free brownie, which came with ice cream. The food was beyond good and the brownie was warm and soft, not dry like a lot of gluten free things can be. I highly recomend coming here whether ur celiac or not. But if you are gluten intolerant rest assured you can eat here safely while enjoying your meal!

05/09/2025: Great food but it takes 20-30 mins for a waiter to come by the table for anything

29/10/2025: Honest story about the famine in Ireland

21/08/2025: Lovely polite staff,efficient service and helpful.

08/10/2025: This is a wonderful little stop for food. Friendly service was a great plus as well.

26/09/2025: Good food. Nice present staff.

25/10/2025: I like a good meal. By good I mean a masterclass in balance, complexity, good ingredients magnificently combined and prepared . . . Rare provided probably the best and most interesting meal I've ever had in Ireland. Wonderful subtle Indian hints brought to Cork produce. Absolutely wonderful!

28/09/2025: Definitely the best dining experience I've ever had. I went to Rare to celebrate my birthday and was impressed with the treatment I received. They really made me feel special!! I had a chef coming over to my table to explain every single one of the plates. It was great to learn the story behind the amazing flavour each one of the plates had. The price falls into the high-end category, but if you enjoy a unique dining experience,  I believe you won't regret visiting Rare.
