My husband and I were meeting our daughter for lunch in Galway, and she recommended Gourmet Tart. She's been a vegetarian and loves the place for it's wide selection of suitable items on the menu. The minute you walk in the door you are hit with a visual Tsunami of culinary delights. The expansive counter and display cases are filled... More

A great bustling restaurant whether it's for brunch , lunch or dinner, it's quality but affordable and never disappoints. It's a great option for dining in Galway. Got a really cool vibe going on in here. Couldn't recommend it enough and great to see a place like this doing well in Galway .

It's been a few months since my last visit but it was every bit as good as the last time. Fantastic food, great service and terrific value for money. Keep up the great work.

We have eaten here a several times over the few months usually around 2 to 3 o'clock, the place is always busy which is a good sign. Waiting for a table can be a bit hit and miss, the staff do seem stressed out but polite enough. The food is fine but perhaps a little bland, but that could be... More

We ate here as a group recently and had an excellent meal. 4 of the 5 of us opted for starters with the fishcakes, duck confit and the mushroom gnocchi being sampled. Great reviews all around. For the mains, we selected the steak (x2), the sea bass, the lamb tangine and the Cajun chicken burger- very generous portions and unbelievably... More

Had the fish cakes and sea bass here, food was very tasty and the service was excellent. Meal sizes were perhaps a bit smaller than expected for the price -- would have been disappointed if I hadn't had a starter! Would definitely return, this place is great.

Only know about their shop in Galway City Centre which was takeaway the last time I was there. But in Salthill they have a restaurant with all the tarts, cakes etc but also a sit down menu. Had Brunch there and food was beautiful and reasonable. Suppose that was why the place was wedged and we had to wait for... More

This place is very popular with families, so there are often baby strollers blocking the aisles, screaming infants and toddlers walking around. That's fine. What's not fine is that the service is terrible. We stopped in there on our way out of town to have a small meal and tea. One of the servers pointed us toward a table way... More

Thank you for being so kind with your star rating on our food despite your unpleasant experience. Can you imagine how it feels to be the owner of a small family business such as ours and to read such a review? It is very disappointing for us that a staff member after enjoying a complimentary meal would ignore a customer... More
