We chose the alfresco option. We started with an order of oysters and a a bottle of Little Eden Shariz from eastern Australia. It was was smooth, with a nice nose and a smooth finish. The ostyers were amazing, just wish I could have had my horseradish and Tabasco sauce with them. The sea bass was very good and I really liked the mango pomegranate salsa which is unusual for me as I would normally not even taste such a concoction. The salsa was tasty and paired very well with the sea bass. The side salad was difficult to eat. The cup was small and spillage was inevitable. The service was good with one exception, the bill for dinner was never brought to the table, after waiting for a while, I went in and paid the tab. Prehaps that's a cultural thing. Prices were moderate-high. All in all an enjoyable but it did not rise to the level of five star.

We had Potatas Bravas, a skewer of monk fish, scallops and bacon, meat balls and aspargus wrapped in filo pastry. Yes it tasted as good as it sounds. To go with our meal we had a bottle of white wine, a Pinot Grigo which was also very nice. The staff were quick and friendly.

I didn't care about the service as there were literally numerous workers and yet with limited customers the night I visited, they seemed off and slow and not really showing much enthusiasm towards services. This is where working to earn tips in the service oriented jobs in the US is a definite advantage. I had 4-5 people serve my table of one customer yet I had to remind them ... can I have water please, is anyone ready to take my order, my drink was served by one, water another, food order taken by yet another, and served by entirely a new person!!!! Not personable experience and rather confusing and unorganized. The Whisky based espresso cocktail was good Nd tasty and the 8oz fillet was fine but rather dry, and more like. 4 or 6 oz at the most. I didn't feel like complaining to be honest.

We wandered from place to place with no luck and finally found this cafe which had some patrons sitting outside tucking into breakfast. We were super hungry and while Irish breakfast wasn't an option on the menu, having been up for 2hrs, this place was open and serving and so we found us a table on the outside porch area since it was sunny and we could people watch. There was an option for a build your own breakfast and I asked the server to approximate an Irish breakfast with awesome results! The breakfast which arrived on my plate consisted of: - Two lovely poached eggs, these had deep yellow yolks and tasted so good -1 crunchy toast, split into two -2 sausages which weren't too my taste that much -2 lovely pieces of thick ham, delicious and perfect, not too salty at all -half a fried tomato - amazing medley of fried wild mushrooms, absolutely the best! I also got a glass of freshly squeezed Orange juice to accompany my breakfast. Everything tasted really good and really fresh. All members of my group were happy with their food choices. I would recommend this place and come here again when visiting Cork. Note: #264 of Yelp 100 challenge for 2016

For starters I highly recommend the unusual oyster pate. Smooth subtle and perfect. For mains we went with the John Dory which was wonderful. And they bring sides family style. The colcannon was the standout side. What I wouldn't have given to take it home for a fried egg breakfast. The dessert was caramelized white chocolate and ice cream. Amazing way to top off a superb evening. The servers were over the top great. Attentive, sense of humor and knowledge.
