Raw Salmon

Used to go for food here often but won't visit again after todays experience. Waiting nearly an hour for our food and drinks. Told the till ran out of paper so order didn't go through so basically forgotten about. Two babies so time was precious....My salmon arrived raw, absolutely disgusting. Thankfully I'd only taken one bite before seeing it wasn't cooked at all . Meal was covered by restaurant obviously as it was a disgrace but no real apology was given. Walked out quickly and won't be returning.More

Worth it from beginning to end

Went for dinner with my fiancée, we’ve shared starters chicken wings and sweet potato and avocado tambalee, it was delicious, for mains we’ve got red earl burguer (huge and yummy) and she got chicken supreme, the chicken perfect cooked and the potato grating for her...side was simply amazing. For dessert we’ve got a chocolate soufflé, no words. Service very friendly and very efficient, 100% worth to try, can’t wait to go back!More

The black pudding rosti was unbelievably good. Great service, excellent staff and a buzz around the place.

Best brunch in Cork!!

The food was amazing! I had ballycotton for my brunch. Each part of the food on the plate was simply delicious, which gives the dish the spark like its royal food! Very detailed and very tasty! The staff was very kind and nice, it was...a real joy to have my brunch there! Lovely spot to visit, recommended 10/10! P.s. The Cappuccino was delicious as well! 🥰More

Steak Sandwich worth the wait !!

Visited on Easter Sunday, was in town visiting family and 12 tables had been recommended by friends so was thrilled to find it open. ‘THE’ almost delicious steak sandwich - YUM ! . Wait staff were lovely, explained there may be a short delay- but...worth every minute of the wait. We sat on the terrace as didn’t have a booking, they couldn’t have been more accommodating. Looking forward to getting in early next time for breakfast - which I believe is an experience too.More

Excellent

Second time eating here. The first time we were blown away by the wonderful flavours, and this time didn’t disappoint. On our first visit we tried the burgers which were delicious, this time we had a brunch. You could tell the ingredients used were of...the highest quality. We’ll be regular visitors going forward. Shout out too for the Caramelita for dessert. A wonderful buttery, chocolatey flapjack - delicious!More
