This is a really good restaurant. The service is wonderful and the staff are very friendly. I enjoyed my visit there. I had a pasta dish with beef strips. It was excellent. More

I can't rate the food because we didn't get past the reception area. Asked for a table for two. We were greeted by a sour faced girl who rolled her eyes, stated they were full & walked away with another word. I ate here a number of times under the old management but will never set foot in there again More

have been a few times for lunch & dinner,the portions are not very big, so a meal deal sounds like a good deal until you leave still feeling hungry, the quality of the food is average to good,as for the guestroom well we did a b&b here twice and the rooms were good and the breakfast was typical,not great value...

We used to use Jacksons a fair bit until it changed owners. On our first (and only!) visit since the new ownership, We decided to give it a try as they were advertising a special offer. Three courses + wine at €50 for two people. On entering we stood waiting in the bar area for over ten minutes whilst two... More

I can't fault one thing with this restaurant, we ate here last weekend and from start to finish we were very satisfied. The staff were so helpful throughout the meal. The food was to die for and the portions were massive and prices were very reasonable. It's still one of my favourites. Will be back - and looking forward to... More

We ate here on Sat 29th October... We ate from the specials menu of 3 courses plus bottle of house wine for €50 for two.... We chose a different bottle of wine & this was no problem - we just paid the difference... We both had one of the nicest pieces of steak either of us have eaten in a... More

I visited Jacksons last night with my husband and friends. In my last review I swore I would never go to Jacksons again but since then the restaurant has been taken over by new owners and a new chef so we said we would give it another chance. To be fair, the starter and dessert were nice. I ordered fillet... More

Having eaten at Jacksons on several occasions since it opened over 3 years ago the meal my friends and I had the other night was without an doubt discussing!! We were informed it was turned into a Italian restaurant but all the dishes we had were extremely tasteless and bland no flavour or seasoning at all. When we complained to... More

I've been to this restaurant on quite a number of occasions and I have to admit it is one of my favourite restaurants. The staff are so helpful and just can't do enough for you. The food is just delicious and menu has a great variety to suit everyone. Although it can sometimes be a little bit pricey, the quality... More
