The best restaurants in Kerry

08/04/2026: The chicken korma is fab. Try it if like me you don't like spicy food. It also has a lovely seating area showing of such wonderful cultural vibes✌️ five stars all round

15/02/2026: We used to happily drive 40 minutes each way for Sethu Curry House, it was that good. It was our “worth the drive” place. Sadly, under new ownership, it has become a “should’ve stayed at home” experience. Last night, we brought my parents for what we expected would be a reliably divine meal at Sethu Curry House. Instead, we left 1 hour and 15 minutes after ordering having received nothing but a meagre portion of stale poppadoms and dips that looked suspiciously like they’d already toured another table before reaching ours. During that hour, we were treated to a greatest-hits remix of: “10 minutes", “Just more 10 minutes”,“5 minutes” “Definitely 10 minutes.”And, as we stood up to leave… “10 minutes and it will be ready." ...All spaced artfully across 75 minutes. Olympic-level time optimism. The restaurant itself was close to empty(unless you count the takeaway orders stacking up and waiting just as long), so the delay was baffling. On arrival, I had to request a new side plate because the existing one had visible, scrapable dirt. The ladies’ toilets smelt strongly of urine, the sink was dirty and grimy, and the room had clearly not encountered antibacterial spray in quite some time. Overall, the place felt grubby and neglected. I ordered a mixed grill with raita, only to be told they no longer do raita. That seemed to set the tone — anything requiring freshness is off the menu. Neither the waiter nor the menu could provide allergen information, which in 2026 is astonishing. We eventually left because, frankly, we no longer trusted that anything arriving from the kitchen would justify the wait. It’s genuinely sad. Someone has taken what was once a gorgeous, consistently excellent restaurant and managed to run it into the ground in record time. I would not consider returning. The only redeeming part of the evening? We crossed the road to Quinlan's Seafood Bar and were served beautiful, fresh fish promptly, in an immaculately clean setting, by lovely staff. Silver lining secured. But what a disappointing Valentines night, especially with visiting parents.

16/08/2025: Yet another food and drink establishment that has just decided we all want to drink low fat milk, no option of full fat. Is it too much to just buy in a carton and have it as an option at least

20/06/2025: They have it right here. Generous portion, great service and therefore great value too, spot on 😀

23/10/2025: The new waitress can't understand anything & is Rude!

22/10/2025: I went in today and asked for an Americano with hot milk. FIRST, she gave me cold milk, then I politely asked for hot milk, then she gave me Oat Milk.. I said no sorry, it's " hot milk ".. she comes back with Hot Oat Milk. I had to get up again, go back to her and say SORRY IT'S AMERICANO WITH HOT MILK!!! She was too busy talking to care.. Was going to order The Full Irish after I enjoyed my Americano but since it took 7 Business Days to make a Coffee, when no one was inside there - I thought Forget It!! New Staff needed 💔

10/01/2026: It’s good box chicken food it’s great 😊 and the man in the front door good and looking after all people

30/11/2025: Excelente!! Beautiful food and they found my friends phone …top class establishment

14/10/2025: The chips were good BUT the fish was the worst fish we had ever tasted!!! It was somehow already covered in batter ready to cook and the batters had become chewy and encased the fish which looked white with no shine or life and was tasteless. I would suggest cooking fresh fish from scratch in the usual manner, if not do not buy their fish.

07/09/2025: I visited here when I was last in Ballybunion. My mam and cousin were with me. We came about 19:00 for food after the beach. Waiting 30 minutes in the queue understandably because it was the evening time. Loved the food

30/07/2025: Great Omelette! Great service. The cook went heavy on the mushrooms in the omelette. Best breakfast we’ve had in Ireland!

29/07/2025: Decent cappuccino but the staff are either half trained or not trained at all and I suspect it is the latter. I had to ask for cholocate in my cappuccino and then remove the previous customer's leftovers from the table while staff watched me clean it with a wet cloth. Shocking bad service.

23/08/2025: Rude manager who kicked me and my friends out for not buying drinks while we were buying drinks. Didn't care what we had to say, just swore at us and made us leave

22/08/2025: Love this pub always have a drink there when in killarney

14/04/2026: (Traducido por Google) Buena comida. El mejor pollo frito de la ciudad. Buenas raciones y personal amable. (Original) Great food. Best fried chicken in town. Good portions and friendly staff.

01/04/2026: I recently ordered two doner kebabs and a cheeseburger, but the kebab meat was raw and smelled awful. I ended up throwing the whole meal away. The staff, who I think was the boss, wasn't friendly either. Seriously, don't go there, stay away!

08/09/2025: Food was delicious but a bit salty and a bit dry. No moist at all in the meats. Service was fast . Prices a bit cheaper to compare to their competitors. We don't like the chips because it wasn't a real potato.

21/08/2025: Ordered a meal deal: nuggets, pizza and chips for €15. These reviews seem like drunk people not getting the sloppy drunk food they expected; but my girls and I ordered from here and it was brilliant. Kind staff, lovely food, big portions. Would def recommend:)

30/11/2025: I tried to order through online and I paid €50 and waiting for confirmation. After few minutes I called them, and they said it’s closed for winter if I need money back, I have to call back the online platform. It’s their responsibility if they closed they have to update in online platforms. Now I I have to go through for my money back. What kind of services and responsibility they have??!!😡😡😡irresponsinle behaviour from the guy replied from phone.

30/09/2025: Excellent service and delicious food

29/12/2025: Food is always nice here. Have been a customer for years.

08/11/2025: DO NOT GET FOOD HERE!!! If I could put 0 stars I could. I ordered food from here, had it delivered by the rudest person ever. Opened my food. I got hit with the smell of stale food. I called. Asked why my food smelled stale. Took a bite. Looked inside.. IT WAS MOULDY!!! They couldn’t care less. I then investigated further, there was 3 hairs in my chips. 3. I asked what that was about… the girl started laughing. There were rats in the kitchen before bamboo house.

11/04/2026: Trust the bad reviews. They seem to be racist towards Indians. Even though there were many empty tables, they asked us if we have reservations and then offered us table in corner near washrooms. Other tables remained empty the whole time and they did not have any reservations!! Food is really AVERAGE for Indian taste. And they do not serve Chai!!

10/04/2026: I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant, especially given the circumstances. We were a group of six, including two children, arriving after an exhausting eight-hour journey and dealing with heavy traffic. We were simply hoping for a relaxed meal, but instead were met with rude and dismissive staff who made us feel unwelcome from the start. What made the situation worse was the complete lack of transparency. There was no mention of any ordering policy when we walked in. Only after we were seated were we told that ordering just two main courses was “not worth” providing table service, and that we would need to order at least three dishes or switch to takeaway. This was both surprising and frustrating. We tried to explain that we weren’t very hungry and didn’t want to waste food or money by ordering more than we needed—especially with children involved—but our concerns were dismissed outright. There was no effort to accommodate us or even communicate politely. To make matters worse, the food itself did not meet expectations. The paneer dish in particular tasted old and had an unpleasant smell, which was very off-putting and raised concerns about freshness. After such a long and tiring day, this experience felt particularly disheartening. Dining out should be about hospitality and respect for customers, not pressuring people to spend more than they’re comfortable with. Overall, the poor attitude, lack of clear communication, questionable food quality, and inflexible policy made this a very unpleasant experience. I would not recommend this restaurant.

09/04/2026: May be the worst burger and fries I've ever had. This is 2AM Drunk Junk Food. I had better in New Orleans on Bourbon St after a long night of drinking! It was so bad, I didn't even bother with pics!

22/01/2026: Very disappointed in denjoes disrespectful staff very rude absolute horrible treatment would not recommend
