The Dough Bros
Galway
19/12/2025: Dough bros better than any Italian pizza I’ve had north of Rome. The dough was so fantastic. The toppings all Irish, the ham and mushroom is something I will think about everyday for the rest of my life. Being in Galway on a cold rainy day, enjoying a steaming hot garlic bread fresh out of the oven with their made in house ranch. I wish they paid me to write this review, but the truth is I’m doing it for free. Probably top 10 pizzas I’ve had in my life.
18/12/2025: Can't understand fascination and a long queue to this place. Was at their place in Galway. Had Christmas edition pizza, I think it was the first pizza I've tried, so salty that couldn't finish the slice. Later on decided to give it second chance and ordered some for the ordinary menu, wasn't that bad just good enough to eat, can't say - enjoy.

Osteria Italiana Da Simone
Galway
07/01/2026: Visited on the evening of the 6/01 and the waitress with the dark hair was very helpful. Excellent food everything was delicious. Tiramisu especially.
07/01/2026: I was yesterday night in this restaurant and I had a carbonara. 30min after I started to eat, I started to feel sick and since then I have been having symptoms of gastroenteritis (diarrhoea and vomitting). I am not sure if it were the eggs… the carbonara did have a different taste but I thought it was just the sauce.

Pasta Factory
Galway
29/11/2025: We live locally in the area and we tried this restaurant for the first time yesterday. All three of us ordered vegan dishes. These were the best pasta dishes we have ever eaten. I ordered the beetroot pesto which was delicious. Even the vegan cheeses they used were very good. It was so nice to see so many vegan options available. We will definitely go there again.
29/11/2025: Only ate at the restaurant, it's soooo good. Highly recommend. I think this is my fourth time here, gonna keep coming back.

Zappi's
Galway
30/11/2025: Maybe one of the worst italian food experiences I ever had. I went for classical Sicilian dish - Pasta Alla Norma. And it was more than disappointing. Use of garlic and strong garlic taste is key in this dish, I am afraid I did not taste any of it at this place. Also I as I noticed egg plants were not deep fried before adding the to the sauce, and there were no any fried onces on the top either.
My friend’s lasanga was as miserable as my pasta dish.
Staff were indifferent and bit rude, I assume that is how they wanted to create Italian kinda vibes there. Maybe good idea would be starting with the food’s taste though.
22/11/2025: Great food and experience overall! Just the smoothie, is actually more of a sundae/iced smoothie.

Trattoria Magnetti
Galway
02/01/2026: I had a very unpleasant experience in this restaurant. I was down in Galway celebrating my birthday. I went in to this place and because I was on my own, the waitress brought me to table to the back of the restaurant on the right.
I was luckily given the menu! I was waiting for over five minutes to get the basics on the table; bread, jug of water...
After another five minutes without getting these basics, no service from the waitress at all, I got up from the table and went to her and found her chatting away to another waitress !!!! I said, I'm leaving this place as there is absolutely no service. She just said OK!
Absolutely shocking the lack of customer service here ! I took my custom elsewhere and had a fabulous meal in a beautiful place.
I will never go into Magnetti's again!
Overpriced and no service at all.
01/01/2026: I was so sad to see that the menu was changed and my favorite 2 pastas and ravioli are gone, they were the best I've ever tasted.
Today I had to change my order for the ducks pasta it wasn't bad but it didn't have the taste of the last times i came.
Such a shame and i am really sad this was my favorite restaurant in galway please bring the old menu back!

Da Roberta's Ristorante

02/01/2026: Everything was delicious, the pasta was great, and the risotto was fantastic. We really enjoyed ourselves.
30/12/2025: Small portions of over priced very average food (lasagna was especially poor), food arrived at different times and service as if we were an inconvenience. Similar experience last September. Won't be back

Giovannis Galway
Galway
18/12/2025: This is the second time I buy from them, the second time the same problem, they don't pay attention to what you order and make your food the way they want it not the way you ask, the staff is very rude, disrespectful, and they are paid from our money, if you want your business to continue to run, change the staff and give your customers what they ask for, I'm sorry but I will never buy from you again
08/12/2025: Excellent Chipper, highly recommend!
