Please also see my review of the Ardagh Hotel which also includes some comments on the restaurant. My wife and I stayed at the hotel in July of 2012 and as I sit writing this in January 2013, the meal at the restaurant still remains one of my highlights of the year. Clifden seems to have a number of good... More

Overall our meal was excellent. The seafood in particular stood out, and the desserts were outstanding. Good service, and a great view of the water. The only change I would make would be to light the room less, as it didn't have a very intimate feel about it.

Absolutely stunning sunset over the bay. The view alone would have been enough but we then truly enjoyed a gorgeous red wine over beautifully prepared starters and entrees.

We liked everything about the food,we did not like the presence of babies at dinner and felt the parents were insensitive allowing far too much noise

We are regular visitors to the Ardagh and never disappointed. Stephane and Monique run the restaurant like the hotel, warm friendly and high quality.

This was our second visit to this restaurant. Once again, excellent soup, wonderful entrees, and a wonderful wine recommended by Stephane. We had a pre-dinner drink downstairs in the lounge area, and wonderful. The staff was friendly and pleasant. Could not be a better meal. The sun setting on the water was fabulous!

We had a wine & food tasting at the Ardagh Hotel. There was a group of about 20 people and we were seated at tables of 4. We started with beef carpaccio, the fillet was chargrilled on the outside and raw in the middle, it was served with green leaves tossed with oranges,yummy!. Rack of Lamb for mains were really...
