Mona Lisa
Galway
09/03/2026: The food was excellent and the atmosphere was ambiant, lovely soft lighting and beautifully laid-out.
The service was a different story, however. My friends and I were thoroughly enjoying our meal when we were abruptly served our bill, while we were still eating our mains and well over an hour before close (people came in and sat down to eat after this incident occured). It very much felt like we were being hinted at to leave.
However, since we had each bought a main and drink we decided to continue enjoying our food and wine (more than half of the bottle was still left).
Not long after, a waitress came over looking for our payment at the table, while most of my friends' glasses were still more than half-full and little over an hour after we had sat down for what we thought would be a meal (I can't call it that as we weren't given the option to order desert, which we had wanted to do). If the previous action had been a hint, this felt like a warning that our time was up.
Just to reiterate: this was still over an hour before close and some other customers had not even been served their food, so the kitchen was still operational as was the bar. Other customers who had been sitting down eating when we arrived were still there after we left. Looking around, it seemed we were the only table to be served the bill so abruptly, which felt uncalled for as we were polite all evening and caused no trouble.
I will say that each of the waiters was polite and courteous, it felt like maybe they were pushed into urging us out the door by someone higher up since their manners didn't match their actions.
Delicious food but I for one won't be back sadly as none of us felt welcome here.

Chef's Café
Craughwell
27/02/2026: 1st time visit, korean style chicken burger ordered, completely burned, half of the chips burned, tea was nice though and very friendly team, really loud inside, and got fork with dried food on it
17/01/2026: Food was very good, however we placed a large order for take away, Confirmed all items twice over the phone, arrived and some items had not been prepared. We had to wait for the missing items to be cooked which meant the rest of our food was cold by the time we could eat it. While we waited for this I provided the full list of items (physical list) to check, yet items were still missing when we brought the order home.

Pinocchio
Dublin
10/03/2026: Very disappointing experience. We were charged an €18 service charge, yet the service was poor, two of our dishes were brought out incorrectly and overall it felt very unprofessional.
There were five staff standing around while we were the only table for about 90 minutes, yet when I went to the bathroom there was no toilet roll, which says a lot about the attention to detail.
The food was also very basic. I ordered chicken with potatoes and vegetables, but the “vegetables” turned out to be grated courgette and peppers blended into a sauce. When I asked where the vegetables were, I was told “that’s them in the bowl.
Overall overpriced, poor service, and an €18 service charge that made absolutely no sense.
08/03/2026: The floor was filthy with old food crusted into the floor. The staff slammed our drinks on the table and the food was bad. My husband got a chicken dinner that was supposed to have carrots, peppers, onion and saffron….all he got was breast of chicken flattened with a small bit of carrot and a yellow sauce that tasted like chicken soup with butter for €21!! My lasagne which was €21 was dry and burnt on top. We only had that mains because the place was too loud with a group that was doing a cooking class. Will not be going there again. I don’t know who is giving 4/5star reviews.

Mulino
Dublin
25/02/2026: The best of the best ! And a gentleman host .
19/02/2026: We called the restaurant in advance to request a quieter, lower-traffic table due to a serious immunity condition in our party. Unfortunately we were told this could not be accommodated. Extremely disappointed that flexibility wasn’t possible given the nature of the request.

Carmine's Traditional Italian Fish & Chips
Tullamore
24/12/2025: Staff can’t take orders correctly rang in looking for a bag of chips with my order and din’t get them to make it worse they still gave us the dips without the chips
16/11/2025: I ordered one curry batter from carmines and was told it would be 20 mins
I waited 1 hour and 10mins and rang and the ignorance I got over the phone was ridiculous he’s no intrest in if my order was taken let alone cooked, honeslty don’t think there’s any respect for customers any where you go now, it was one curry batter and a bottle of coke, 1 hour and 20 mins then I had to ring to cancel my order
