The best restaurants

21/08/2024: Hace una semana vine después de un largo turno de trabajo. No esperaba mucho. Sin embargo, el bacalao ahumado y las patatas fritas eran increíbles. En comparación con otros fish & chips en el centro de la ciudad el precio es bueno también

18/04/2024: Frozen cod was still frozen when served. Cold chips, Manager went and hid. Was told it was cold vinegar. What nonsense, they cant even serve food at edible temp. They will kill someone.

03/09/2026: Very disappointing. When dining at a Michelin-starred restaurant the baseline experience; the food, the service, the ambiance, all should be exceptional. Our dining experience was far from it. When we were seated, the waiter asked our group whether we had any allergies. My wife has a sulfite allergy and mentioned this. It was hard to tell which dishes contained sulfites from the menu, but we noted the inclusion of wine in some of the sauces. When our main courses were brought to the table, each plate was artistically presented. Except my wife’s. She’d ordered the cod dish and that’s what she received: a lump of grilled cod with no decoration, no sauce, just the fish. She also received a dish of disappointing steamed vegetables just like you’d get at a pub. The contrast with the other plates was dramatic. We asked the waiter to go back to the kitchen to ask for a pitcher of sauce. He returned and told us that “everything in the kitchen contains sulfites”. Also, he said, the chef prepares the sauces in advance, so he could/would not provide a sulfite-free alternative. Astonished, we suggested that it would be trivial to make a beurre blanc, without vinegar, but the waiter reiterated his previous comment. We told him to take the dish back to the chef and to bring a replacement with sauce and a dish to the standard of the others. He begrudgingly took the dish away. After everyone had finished their course, he returned, with another lump of cod and the world’s smallest pitcher of an unknown creamy sauce. When I say small, it was Barbie-sized. And the plate was not decorated. Clearly, the chef didn’t give a damn and only paid lip service to the request. We’ve dined at Michelin-starred restaurants where the meal was so fantastic, we’ve talked about it years later. The Falls Restaurant experience is also memorable, but for all the wrong reasons: the chef’s failure to accommodate a guest’s request, the defensive attitude of the waiters, and the poor resolution without an apology. This could have all been avoided had the chef gone to the effort to provide a dish of comparable quality, presentation, and taste as he did for the rest of the table. I’ll also add that the evening was a birthday celebration. Our friend had asked for specific items to be included. The restaurant did none of these things. Based on the positive reviews, you might think that this is an anomaly because of a picky eater, but you should ask yourself whether the attitude of the chef and staff is really commensurate with a Michelin-starred experience. If you value a memorable dining experience, my advice is to go elsewhere.

15/08/2026: Just revisited the falls restaurant for a second time we had the full menu which consisted of lots of courses which were all very tasty and things which we had never had before. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for something special. We met and chatted to the chef mark Treacy and complemented our lovely fine dining dinner. The service was so great and courses arrived regularly describing what we were about to eat all really great. Thank you

05/06/2026: While staying in the Gleneagle, we dined at this restaurant: the prices are higher than the Killarney average, and the service is quite pushy and chaotic (drinks were delivered in a confusing way). The atmosphere is supposed to be halfway between a pub and a Hard Rock Cafe, but it's out of place in its context. The menu is quite varied.

30/08/2025: Ate in Hugo’s restaurant. Food was ok but not what we would have expected in a 5 star hotel. Service was appalling however. We had a birthday celebration and the birthday guest asked for both of her dishes to have small changes (sauce served on side). Multiple waiters failed to either listen or process and the dishes were served without the changes as requested. Otherwise, it’s a nice hotel and a good location, but it’s a bit too Fawlty Towers for my liking.

18/06/2024: We decided to dine here in the last night of our stay in Mulranny and were extremely disappointed in the experience. Yes, it was busy as it was Father’s Day, but we had eaten elsewhere earlier in the day - more busy - and there was flawless service. When seated we waited 20 minutes for a drinks order ti be taken, my wife’s starter of prawns was presented in a bowl of bread cubes filled with oil, a team member came to clear the table before starters were finished and insisted on clearing my plate (I was finished), the mains arrived and we waited another 10 minutes for cutlery after requesting them, the chicken fillet burger was dry and tough, the beef burger was well over seasoned with salt - neither mains were half finished. At that point we had had enough and asked for the bill- another half hour wait with no acknowledgment and no bill. Money left on the table and we left - extremely disappointing and wouldn’t recommend.
