The best restaurants in Kerry

05/04/2026: I've visited a few times while in Killorglin. Always hoping to get a clearer read on this place, I still haven't managed it. The staff here are genuinely lovely and always pleasant to deal with. No complaints there whatsoever. Portion sizes are also seriously impressive, the price is on the slightly higher side, but the amount of food you get does reflect that, so fair enough. The problem is the food itself and how unpredictable it seems to be. Every visit feels like a dice roll. The food can be delicious, mediocre, or sometimes just simply inedible. There's no pattern to it that I can identify, which makes it hard to recommend with any confidence. My suspicion is an ingredient substitution issue. When they run out of their usual stock, they seem to swap to noticeably cheaper or lower quality alternatives. The chips are a good example, they have a go-to frozen chip that's actually quite good. But when that runs out, whatever replaces it is obviously a large step down. The same issue crops up elsewhere in chicken dishes too. Could be the product, or could be the freshness. Even the sauces can taste totally different each visit, again not sure if its a substitution issue or just how long what they're serving has been sitting out for. It's perhaps understandable for a small family run restaurant managing costs, but it directly affects the dining experience in a way that's hard to ignore. I'd be much more likely to come to spend more money here if they were willing to spend more money ensuring they're consistent with the quality of the ingredients they use. There's a genuinely good restaurant in here somewhere, but until the consistency improves, I can't give it more than 3 stars total.

02/04/2026: Very good take away the food is excellent and the service is good.

28/12/2025: Very bad service. Me and my boyfriend went here for lunch we were told we needed to wait until the kitchen turned over from breakfast so they couldn’t give us a menu even though we could of just been looking at it until lunch started but that’s fine. The section we were in wasn’t even prepped for the next customers like after the family beside us had left nothing was done to the table for a good minute but I get that it’s a thing that maybe needed to wait. We were told it be 10-20 mins. We thought okay we’ll order some drinks until then we weren’t in no rush. We completely finished the drinks after so long still no service not even to see if we wanted another drink. We waited over a hour I know by then we should have left. Then new customers came in automatically got a menu and got food no waiting we were absolutely fuming no observation or organisation skills. Then we went to pay nothing said and the person behind the counter had no friendly character at all. Horrible experience luckily we just made it in time for a roll from the shop.

21/07/2025: Fabulous Café, Staff are beyond Helpful & Entertaining. The Tea is out of this world, coffee is highest rating I could ever give. Food is unbelievable and so reasonably priced. Ill be back again next week.

07/04/2026: Went to order food, didnt explain what is in a "meal", argued with me because I wanted an extra tub of curry saying "its already apart of the meal". Waited 15 minutes for the food. Came on a dirty plate that wasnt washed properly, handed me a plate of 6 chicken goujons for my chicken goujon meal. I had to ask for chips and didnt give me my curry dip either. We then had to ask the staff if we can pay. They genuinely just looked lost as though it was their first day being opened and extremely rude. So to put it in their perspective a "meal" comes with no chips, no drink and no side or dip. We had to pay for the drinks separately, so a sausage meal comes with a sausage and thats it for €9

07/02/2026: This place is an absolute kip. I was standing outside the window chatting to a friend, minding my own business and could see a tall lad in his 20s with brownish hair inside making faces and saying something to the woman he worked with about me. He also gave me the middle finger for absolutely no reason. I would highly recommend avoiding this place at all costs unless you feel like being mocked by staff.

01/03/2026: Got a takeaway spicebag,excellent place if your looking for complete muck,,!,nearly chipped a tooth on the crispy chicken!,spice non existent, terrible

20/02/2026: Probably as good a Chinese Takeaway as you'll find locally... Best to order & wait as normally around a 10 minute wait...
