The best restaurantsof irish in Galway

15/03/2025: Rúibín means ‘small ruby stone’ & this place really is a Galway gem! The perfect location for lunch on a sunny day. We had some beautiful Portuguese wine, Korean Fried Chicken, Hot Smoked Rainbow Trout, Ballymakenny Pink Fir Potatoes (with the best garlic dip I’ve ever had), Sticky Date & Treacle Pudding, Chocolate & Pistachio Tiramisu. All delicious! Staff here are incredibly friendly, helpful & efficient. Thought the prices were very reasonable considering your surroundings, the location of the restaurant & the standard of food & service which we received. It’s a 10 from us!

15/03/2025: Service, setting and food all amazing! Stunning experience

11/02/2025: Absolutamente me encanta esta hamburguesa pero caro en el aeropuerto de Dublín fue muy decepcionante. Las virutas eran frías y en su mayoría pequeñas chatarras. Los bollos eran grasientos y muy pequeños. ¿No estás seguro si el pan era su pan habitual? No era mejor que nada de otros puntos de venta de hamburguesas. Realmente decepcionante ya que suelen ser las mejores hamburguesas de la historia.

08/02/2025: Came here last Sunday with a few friends!! The burgers and chips were as good as they always were!!! Great service and atmosphere.

12/03/2025: Great live music (started at 9:30), full of students eve on a Monday

12/03/2025: Crazy little place. Absolutely mobbed but s9me great energy going on. Lots of fun.

17/02/2025: El desayuno en Dela fue recomendado por una mujer local en un banco. Nuestro servidor era genial. El desayuno era delicioso - compartimos el desayuno vegetal. Me encanta la col rizada y el tofu y las patatas crujientes servidas con huevos escalfados en pan oscuro, tomates asados y un plato de frijoles. No te pierdas el restaurante de Dela.

03/02/2025: Tasty food, with lovely staff that work in an amazingly decorated restaurant! Only complaint is having to wait for a table, but won’t hold that against them.. definitely worth the wait with how delicious their food is

17/03/2025: Recently visited with a group for a special birthday event. We were seated upstairs. Shortly after sitting down a large party arrived for a birthday celebration also. They were extremely loud and did not take their seats for 15 - 20 mins. The manager did try to get them to take their seats but were slow to do so. The group had no regard for other patrons having their meal. Added to this was a person playing a piano and base guitar which exacerbated the noise level. As a result it was impossible to hold a conversation as you could not hear each other. We asked to be seated downstairs but were told that there was only a table outside. As we were celebrating a special event we wanted a dining experience and not a Covid reminder of having to eat outside. After making our complaint it felt as though our meal was served in a rush to get us out of there as quickly as possible which also impacted on our night. We could see other patrons were struggling also with the noise and another group did leave and took a table outside. If management knew they had a large party booked in (approximately 30) they should not have taken bookings for other groups or simply accommodated them downstairs instead or indeed they should have informed us at the time of booking of another large celebration taking place. It felt as though our custom was not valued as we were not spending as much as the large group even though our meal was over 300 euros. All in all it was down to poor management, and organisation of a venue. The complaint was not handled well either and it felt very dismissive of our night and celebration at the expense of a much larger party. Very disappointed as our night was ruined and members of our party had travelled to be with us but we could not even talk to each other at dinner. This was not an isolated event either as we had eaten here before and a similar scenario happened.

17/03/2025: Terrible dinner experience as a large party ruined the night as they did not consider the rest of the diners. The staff and management did absolutely nothing and when I complained to the manager he just blamed them and made an excuse that more came than had originally been booked.

06/03/2025: Excellent, regional, excellent quality, thank you for the wonderful experience and the friendly service, rarely eaten so well and with so many nuances including a harmonious wine accompaniment. Wonderful at the start of my stay in the beautiful coastal city of Galway

03/03/2025: Good service Good teste Good environment affordable price

21/01/2025: Went here for lunch and ordered the fish and chips. Lovely crispy batter on 3 nicely sized pieces of fish with ample chips, a delicious little salad and a pot of tartar sauce. Service was quick and friendly and the price for what I got was very reasonable.

07/01/2025: Fantastic experience all round !! Irish beef Guinness stew is the best stew that's ever graced my buds Extremely friendly and knowledgeable service too. Cheers!

22/03/2025: St Patrick’s day here went off, literally a movie. Can’t remember a thing but loved every second

20/03/2025: Great live music, great location, food was good and we were able to get a comfortable table.

19/03/2025: Beautiful tasty food highly recommend it

19/03/2025: It is a nice pub that you could easily spend an evening in. The food is nice, as a veggie there were good options. Service was very good, the staff really worked hard to ensure customers were attended to.

20/03/2025: Lovely hot food very reasonably priced

18/03/2025: Small restaurant, refined and homemade cuisine, incredible onion rings. Cash payment preferred by the owners.

23/03/2025: So much history in this place...we stayed for a while!

22/03/2025: It's very large and has several different rooms. We couldn't eat because that was in a different area, but we had a few pints.

17/03/2025: I had high hopes for this restaurant, and the meal started off well. The fish soup was rich and flavorful, and the mackerel was fresh and well-prepared. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill from there. The main courses were disappointing—lacking the same care and quality as the starters. The scallop dish was over salted and lemon sole which was floured before cooking seemed to be cooked in burnt butter. There was very little choice for gluten-free diners, and to make matters worse, there were no gluten-free desserts on the menu at all. On a positive note, the staff were friendly and attentive, but sadly, that wasn’t enough to make up for the underwhelming meal. Overall, it was not an experience I would repeat.

17/02/2025: Si estás visitando Galway, honestamente creo que Hooked es ahora una visita obligada. De propiedad familiar, es un favorito local. La calidad de la comida es excelente, pero no quebrarás el banco, ya que todo tiene un precio bastante razonable. Personal fantástico, voy regularmente aquí yo mismo - confiar en un lugareño!

04/02/2025: Nice and cozy small restaurant. The oysters were delicious!

20/03/2025: Fab staff fab food and music but ladies toilet needs attention. One of three toilets out-of order and one dryer ooo also. Not good enough considering the turnover.

12/03/2025: Went here last week with my brother. The atmosphere was 10/10 and staff were very friendly. The garlic bread is unmatched along with the garlic dip. Had one of the best pizzas in Ireland you could find. Will definitely be back

18/03/2025: Fantastic food, great service, and very cool decor in the establishment. Wish I ate here once more. Steak was great.

17/03/2025: The hotel is very nice. Spacious and clean room, nice color combinations Friendly staff, there is a lift, a restaurant and a large free parking lot. We stayed 3 days really pleasantly
