I love the food in this restaurant, but arriving on time for an 8:45 booking and not getting seated until 9:30 is bad. Not getting the main course until 10:30 is very frustrating. There was no apology at any point until we had to hurry them up to get our main course. Mumbled excuses "We're very busy tonight" is no... More

Chose La Fantasia to take a friend for her birthday as she had never eaten there before and I wanted to see the new premises! Gorgeous setting! It feels like a real Italian restaurant now! We were taken straight to our seats and given a complimentary bottle of wine as the chef found out it was my friend's birthday we... More

I went there for the first time yesterday evening with my Mum, after it was recommended to us by a friend who had been there at the weekend. With it being a Tuesday, we didn't book and thought we'd probably be the only ones in there. How wrong we were! We were pretty much the first 2 in the door,... More

We ate here couple of weeks back when it was at the old premises. I must say I had heard all good reports except from 2 other people who had been there before and I must admit if they say its not great its normally not. The food lacked flavour to be honest. I had bruschetta as a starter, a... More

Long time fans of La Fantasia in Dry Arch, my husband and I visited their new premises in central Letterkenny on Monday of this week. Given that we were back by Sunday night you ll guess it is as superb as ever. Amazing food, great staff, faultless!

This is a regular stop for us when we are in Letterkenny. Great Italian menu and lovely atmosphere. have recommended it to a number of friends and family and feedback is all positive. Hidden away don't be put off by it environs (a bit industrial). Step inside and experience a true Italian experience.

I’m from Italy living in Ireland a long time and have been travelling to Donegal frequently over the last number of years. I must be honest and must say that I normally avoid Italian restaurants abroad: I return to Italy often enough to enjoy Italian food in Italy. However, I was brought to La Fantasia for the the first time... More

La Fantasia have moved into the town of letterkenny to justice walsh road( between the courthouse and elverys sports. great location , and the place is bigger and nicer inside. so far I have only got a take away from there but it was up to their usual standard.
