Grill House
Tullow
14/05/2025: Lovely lunch and very reasonable prices.
14/02/2025: The food is amazingly good with a good portion size. The staff is lovely and the atmosphere is relaxing. The decoration has a farmhouse style and the wall has artwork from local artists. The bathroom is also very clean. There is a car park nearby and only 2 min walk from an electric car charging point. If I ever pass by Tullow again I would definitely visit this place.

The Terrace
Carlow
09/06/2025: A highly recommended restaurant. We ate outside on the terrace. The restaurant's terrace doesn't have a wide view of the outside, but it's beautifully landscaped. You feel very comfortable here, and the food is good. Great ambiance, stylish, and cozy. The traditional Irish food that was recommended to us tasted good, but wasn't particularly special. The wait was short, although there weren't many guests at that time. We had made a reservation. Very attentive and friendly service. Very nice waitresses, and the food was good. All in all, highly recommended. We would gladly come again.
21/05/2025: We went for dinner on Monday as not many restaurants were opened. I had been at The Terrace during the summer and the atmosphere for drinks had been great.
However, the dinner was very disappointing.
- very few fish options in the menu. Mostly meat.
- i ask to the waitress not to add sauce to my sea-bass if the sauce contained lactose because I’m lactose intolerant and next I get a plate with potatoes and a bunch of cheese and cream on top. Nobody was able to tell me if that had lactose bc they didn’t even know the concept (and, probably, not even the full list of ingredients).
Very frustrating, disappointing and unprofessional experience overall. Won’t definitely return for dinner.

Cibo
Carlow
07/05/2025: Everything on the menu is just amazing, coffee is always beautiful and staff are just so lovely. Love coming here for a treat. Everything is so fresh and always stunning.
14/03/2025: Good food, good spot. I actually just discovered it last week and had the muscle builder's salad which was great. Paid €9.80, enjoyed it and thought I'd come back every Friday as I am in the area then. Went in today, ordered the exact same thing was was told it was €15.50. I said to the lady at the till that I paid €10 for it last week and she just said "prices have gone up". Not sure I can justify a 50% price increase in 1 week but it's still a good spot with nice food.
