The best restaurants in Tralee

08/08/2026: Smashing food and tge young lady who served us was what any employer could possibly wish for in an employee

28/07/2026: Food nice and tasty and plenty of it very reasonable staff very nice

17/06/2026: Great bar in Tralee. Friendly staff, very chatty. Great pint of Smithwicks.

14/05/2026: The service was very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very bad. I do not recommend it!! The man who serves is very rude. I will not return, but I do not recommend it to anyone. I was there on the 13th of this month.

25/08/2026: Excellent fish and chips made with fresh, local fish (especially cod). Prices for eating in are rather high, but significantly reduced for takeaway orders (around 30% off).

12/08/2026: Welcoming place, very friendly staff and excellent food!!!

17/05/2026: I chose The Imperial Hotel because it is a favorite venue of mine to meet friends for coffee and lunch. The interior is really nice and the staff are always amazing. My recent meetup group event exceeded expectations thanks to a young member of staff named Aaron (Bar and Restaurant) Having a professional background in tourism and having worked as a duty manager myself, I understand what it takes to provide seamless service. I really appreciate the massive difference that a genuine personal touch makes to the guest experience. Aaron met us upon arrival and was absolutely exceptional and very capable. He took everything in his stride, managing our group effortlessly and providing a level of service that thoroughly impressed everyone in attendance. Because of the fantastic experience we had with the area provided for our coffee event and the personal service both Aaron and the girls delivered, my group has already requested that we return to The Imperial again soon. Fantastic job, Aaron! From Kingdom Connect MeetUp Group

12/02/2026: Great location of hotel right in the middle of town easy accessible for transports.

15/08/2026: Best chicken kebab and chicken wings in town for years now.

08/07/2026: 100 % as always. Best in Town..

05/09/2026: Went out for a meal this evening with my partner .Was very disappointed with the service as the main course came out(which was good)without getting our starter platter first . And was told if we wanted she would bring it out after which we declined .Went up to pay and asked about it they said we just forgot about it and would remove it from the bill.i just thought this was unacceptable service.It had ruined our date night after not getting out over a year without the kids.would love to hear back from ye thanks.

17/08/2026: Best Chinese in Tralee. Really miss the limerick location in castletroy which was there yonks back. Great mild and creamy curry, friendly in the Irish stomach. Prawn crackers almost always complimentary. It’s the small things 🙏🏻

17/06/2026: Book here if you want the narrowest bed ever. Around 4 to 5 toothpaste tube wide!! Don't move during the night or else ...

09/06/2026: It's okay, but the price-to-quality ratio is average. The atmospheric Irish decor is a plus.

08/05/2026: I like this place, it's in the middle of Tralee. It's a grand spot for a quick service lunch or breakfast.

25/04/2026: Older women behind the carvery counter suffer from a deficit of hospitality, courtesy and personality generally. The younger folks are less bitter, and generally nicer. Food is decent; I’ve just had it with the awful atmosphere back there.

04/08/2026: Got food poisoning and so did 2 other people who we shared a pizza with 32 hours later still not good

30/08/2026: French toast was burnt and dry for 15€ you would expect a lot better.

13/08/2026: Really good coffee and delicious food. The only V60 option we could find in the town. The staff is not so welcoming but otherwise good experience

03/08/2026: It's a bad Italian restaurant. They don't sell wine or beer, although you can bring your own. They don't give you bread or even olives as a starter. The decor is pathetic: chairs, dirty children's chairs, and a TV lying in the corner. It is quite spacious, though. The service is slow and bad; the girls there clearly don't know how to handle the place. The music was on repeat; they played about five songs the entire time. They forgot one of our dishes, brought it to us after we'd finished, and didn't charge us for it. They do sell takeout, which might have been the best option.

23/07/2026: The food here was delicious, our waitress was friendly. We had the option of dining outside, which we took them up on.

29/06/2026: I ordered the Amber Beef and Beef Chow Fun at Ho Kee. The Amber Beef was excellent — very authentic with strong wok hei, nothing like the watery versions you get from other takeaways. The Beef Chow Fun was also fantastic, loaded with beef and egg, and full of that same great wok aroma. The owner (lady boss) was incredibly nice. When she heard I was rushing to catch a train, she immediately asked the chef to prepare my order first. Really appreciate the great service! Thank you so much, and hope your business continues to thrive!

23/01/2026: Poor attitude and disinterested.

08/08/2026: We had a lovely experience. The food was delicious, coffee and hot chocolate were gorgeous and the service and atmosphere were perfect. Added bonus being very good value. Would highly recommend.

21/07/2026: Waited my whole lunch break for a sandwich. Did not receive the sandwich. Waited over 40 minutes for a simple toasted sandwich on a relatively quiet day with lots of empty tables. Wont be returning

16/05/2026: Dreadful experience, satay skewers were so tough we couldn't eat them and the green chicken curry was in a thick gloopy sauce .

28/02/2026: Order for take away, available for collection promptly, staff on arrival were lovely, friendly and efficient. Food was delicious, very reasonably priced and generous amount of food for adults and kids meals. Everyone was very happy with the meal!
