Our food was superbly prepared and beautifully presented, easily some of... More

Had the most amazing meal on Friday night. Booked for the early bird menu (6pm-7pm). 20 euros for 2 courses. I had calamari with chilli and mango sauce (gorgeous) and steak with the most amazing sauce. The portion sizes were large and the service was fantastic. I took my Mum on a surprise trip to Cork for the weekend and... More

Loved the look of this restaurant so decided to give it a try. We went for the early bird menu which was 3 courses for €25. Food was divine and manager and staff couldn't have done enough for us. Decor was simple but classy and toilets were immaculate. Overall it was the best dining experience we have had in ages.... More

The food was fresh, beautifully cooked and delicious! Our party consisted of 3 adults and 2 children (10 and 7) and all were very impressed with their meal. Although the resturant is not very large the tables all feel very private. More
