The best restaurants

01/10/2025: All the staff were very friendly except for the manager, who was bland and rude. I went to ask her a question, and she treated me in the worst possible way. She wouldn't let me speak, and when she got tired, she passed the problem to one of her employees and left in the middle of the conversation. The music from the bar can be heard in the rooms at night, even making the floor rumble.

19/09/2025: Great pint at €5.50 on one of the most expensive streets in Cork City Center. With prices in the City reaching €6.50+ There is also happy hour and menu deals. It also has a hostel and bar with screens, also outdoor seating. In a great location for transport. If a visitor or a local a great place to check and enjoy.

27/11/2025: Avoid this place at all costs When they get things wrong the manager talks over you and gives no apology Awful awful awful experience NEVER AGAIN I

25/11/2025: A good decent supermacs. Very good staff. I was complaining to the lady who served me about the wooden forks used nowadays and she came back to me with a real fork.

17/02/2026: I have a usual order that I have been ordering for the last 12 years. Everyone in Mezza Portlaoise knows my order. I went in one night and ordered my usual. I got home and discovered what I got was not my usual. I went back a couple of days later and the guy who appears to be in charge said he was surprised when my food was being handed out to me wasn't my usual order despite acknowledging that I had clearly ordered my usual order. I hadn't planned on asking for my next order to be free but when this guy acknowledged that what I got was not what I ordered I expected that 12 years as a customer might mean something and I asked if the order i had just submitted would be free gratis. Nope, wasn't going to happen and I made it very clear I will not set foot in this establishment again. Good customer service is not hard folks but apparently it is.

11/02/2026: Tried Mezza in Bray and I was amazed at quality , 5/5

10/02/2026: Food is tops and the quality is very good and tasty.

30/09/2025: Nice very clean chip shop in Cork. Staff here were friendly. These were probably the best chips I've had in a few years. The chicken fillet burger was good too, nice and crispy. The only thing that wasn't that good were the mushy peas. They were a bit watery and didn't taste of much, so I probably wouldn't have those again. I definitely recommend this place for a good feed if you're in the northside of the city.

25/06/2025: No flavour in one dish and other dish was inedible, like it had gone off! All went in the bin. What a waste of 50 something euro!

16/06/2025: Ok for a quick bite.. snack or lunch on the go.

16/08/2025: Yet another food and drink establishment that has just decided we all want to drink low fat milk, no option of full fat. Is it too much to just buy in a carton and have it as an option at least

20/06/2025: They have it right here. Generous portion, great service and therefore great value too, spot on 😀

20/03/2026: Been there few times it’s nice I like it

25/01/2026: I ordered 2 meals (kebab + chips + juice ) and other things and they sent us for the meals just one full meal and for the second one was just the kebab,without juice and chips and we paid full price .

12/11/2025: I used to order from here every week ,lovely staff but since last week 5/11/25 when I ordered the price of the food has gone through the roof ,way too expensive now so I go elsewhere. Greed will get you nowhere, you lost a loyal customer 11.50 for a spicebag shocking

28/10/2025: Very disappointing. I’ve been going here over ten years and received a counterfeit note in change from them yesterday. Attendant was very rude and threw it in my brothers face even though we were very calm. Be aware and check your notes!

09/12/2025: Good food good staff! Overall good experience.

23/10/2025: Just a shopping street like the ones you find everywhere

30/01/2026: First time here last night and I was well impressed! The food was spot on, full of flavour, and the staff couldn’t have been nicer. Great atmosphere too, felt right at ease. Will definitely be coming back!

30/12/2025: Worst chicken curry ever stay away from this place don't know what it was I was eating but it definitely wasn't chicken horrible it was

02/02/2026: Portions very large. Curry tasted European not Indian. Not impressed.

11/01/2026: I no longer stand by my original review of the Holy Grail Enniscorthy one star ⭐️ I have recently had both lunch and dinner here on different days and it was beautiful, lovely tasting food very well presented and great value for money , it's a rare thing for me to give a past restaurant a second go but so glad I did .

18/10/2025: One of the best places I’ve ever had pasta at. The quality of the ingredients is top notch. I ordered spicy penne with chicken and it was up to the mark in terms of flavour and sauce. I would recommend a try once for sure cause it should be enough to get you addicted.

30/09/2025: Food is a1. Staff are so accommodating and amazing with kids. Have eaten there many times and it never disappoints

28/01/2026: Staff are so nice and friendly, always will to have a chat even when the place is busy, recently revamped looks fantastic love the new look, food is great

28/12/2025: The pizza at Luciano's hasn't changed in 30 years, that is some achievement!. The prosciutto is by far my favorite and each bite is a little bit of heaven. Now keep in mind your cholesterol is not going to be the better of it but hell, it'll be worth the heart attack!

03/03/2026: I’m a regular at this drive-thru and just wanted to appreciate Sonia for her excellent service. She recognized my usual order (McPlant with custom changes, nuggets, and marinara sauce) and even helped me pick the right sauce when I forgot the name. It’s really nice when someone remembers regular customers and makes the experience smooth and friendly. Sonia truly makes the visit better every time. Thank you!

15/02/2026: Food always cold, staff is making lots of mistakes in orders and management doesn't take responsibility for that. Arrogant and unprofessional service

24/12/2025: Came in just for two potato pies- lovely and moist.

23/09/2025: Dinos douglas has gone to the bin! Ever since the Irish girl Sarah left the chipper, the food quality has been horrendous. The asian lady working at the store makes the worst food, it’s definitely not fresh and you could just tell that the fish, chicken and dips are stale. The quality that dinos has in other stores like Grange and Turners cross is nowhere near compared to the likes of the Douglas store. The food used to be nice but ever since the asian lady has been making the food, it has been unhygienic, dirty and will definitely give someone food poisoning. Douglas dinos is really really awful now and should be avoided at all costs.
