The best restaurants in Kerry

07/11/2025: Went two years ago and have been meaning to write a review! This was the best dinning experience! Me and girlfriends went on an Ireland trip and stumbled upon this restaurant on accident. What a happy accident! Whenever someone asks me the best thing I ever ate I always tell them about this night. The owners were lovely and the food was divine. I’ve also never seen a nicer restaurant bathroom. Everything is so thoughtful and I had the best time.

17/10/2025: My husband and I and two friends had the early bird menu. We were seated at 5:30 by very pleasant friendly staff. The food was outstanding. The service was outstanding. The atmosphere was outstanding. The decor was perfect. The toilets were spotless .I would highly recommend the early bird menu, Ragu to start pork belly for main course. As I am a non-drinker, I was very impressed by a range of 00 alcohol beers Guinness wine. A wonderful experience we will definitely be back thanks to everyone for the very nice service and excellent food

06/01/2026: Chicken here, always makes me really sick!!.. The chicken is definitely not chicken!!!! I've never been so sick!!!!

03/01/2026: It was perfect and we were a group of 6. The staff was lovely and attentive, answering any question we had and making good suggestions (get the garlic potatoes). The ramen was delicious and so was the Tofu Katsu Curry. It was a great experience, will go again and would recommend.

04/11/2025: The best steak sandwich I've ever eaten, good quantity and the waitresses are always very friendly and helpful. My partner and I order for this main whenever we travel, but without a doubt this is the place we always go back to, it never fails!

29/10/2025: Excellent restaurant! Very friendly staff! Baby equipment available. 4 stars, unfortunately because they don't have Guinness.

14/11/2025: (Traducido por Google) Comida brillante (Original) Brilliant food

16/09/2025: Wonderful two course dinner off the early bird menu! Absolutely delicious!

26/10/2025: Very much recommend if you're looking for a place to stay in Killarney. The rooms are nice, clean, and cozy. The toiletries were replaced daily. There's a decent variety for breakfast available and plenty of food provided. Location was great and walking distance to the bus/ train stations and the restaurants and shops in town. It's also easy to get to meeting points if you're taking a tour. The staff is absolutely amazing and friendly and helpful. I lost something here and they were able to ship it back to me internationally.

23/09/2025: Best Night of sleep I've had in weeks. Beds are so comfortable. Best shower I've had in weeks. And such nice service all around. Everyone is so friendly. Definitely recommend.

20/12/2025: Tops. I ordered from the vegan menu and got rice noodles with egg in it, so watch it, as items may not be bundled and "vegan" get lost in translation.

19/12/2025: Excellent food, Excellent service

23/11/2025: I was there yesterday during work break, we filmed the concert in the church across the road. I had apple slice and it was absolutely fresh and beautiful and made with real apples, which reminded me of my grandma's one. Really cool ambient, cat themed cafe and friendly staff. Would visit again if I'm ever in town!

29/08/2025: Liene made us very welcome and did not rush us to order. A lovely and welcoming atmosphere with really comfortable chairs with high backs which I love. Portions are very generous and the wine list is very affordable with a good selection. This has become my "go to" place of choice to eat and relax in Listowel.

19/10/2025: Ideal location for us right beside Waterville Golf Club. Large clean rooms. Staff were excellent especially the Greek barman and the ladies who served us breakfast. Again they arranged an early breakfast on one of the mornings we had to leave early

19/10/2025: A very lovely restaurant with such a great atmosphere, right on the ocean. Our waitress was an absolute goddess of hospitality — everything was just perfect, and we will definitely be back.

02/12/2025: I’m a wedding DJ and get to play in Ballyseede Castle quite regularly. Mary and Paul are A class wedding coordinators and things always run very smoothly on the day. There is always a great atmosphere around the venue and the staff here are very sociable with guests.

02/12/2025: After viewing a few venues before, we knew from the moment we arrived at Ballyseede Castle that this was where we wanted to get married. The venue is absolutely stunning, but what truly made it exceptional was the staff. From our first tour to planning the final details, they were incredible. The bridal suite where we got ready was massive and beautiful, which made the morning feel so relaxed and special. The Belfry, where we had our ceremony, was also amazing and created the perfect setting. They made sure both we and our guests were having an amazing time, and the entire day ran like clockwork. They worked with all our vendors so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Many of our guests also told us it was the best wedding dinner they had ever had. We can’t thank the team enough, and we will definitely be back for a visit in the future. To anyone considering booking Ballyseede, you won’t regret it.
