Typical pub style find a seat, order at the bar give them your table number and they'll find you with your food. Also, somebody took a trip to Buffalo as they nailed the wings!

They don't take breakfast reservations but on an off season Monday morning, there were plenty of tables available. My husband enjoyed his toasted breakfast sandwich on sourdough which was a huge portion. My Irish breakfast was delicious and they accommodated my request to swap out the black and white pudding for an extra rasher. My daughter was expecting a much fluffier version of the Belgian waffles - we noted that the menu describes the meal as "Waffles with crispy streaky bacon" and she only had a single waffle with not so crispy bacon. But we did enjoy everything else and will likely return.

Myself and my family made a booking on Saturday for Saturday evening, (which I was surprised to get…read morea booking at such late notice) We arrived and was given a table at the back corner, we ordered drinks and food Our starters arrived, which were nice, but then waited 10 to 15 minutes before r plates where cleared when the mains came My husband had ordered a ribeye steak €32. It was bland and quite fatty for a ribeye No one came to check our table And he ended up, just putting garlic mayo on top with the sauce that was on his plate to give us some sort of taste. My daughter got a tagliatelle which was very smoky Yet again, nobody checked the table. It was probably another 10 to 15 minutes for our plates to b cleared The waitress asked was everything okay my husband said about the steak been bland and fatty also my daughters dish was only 1/2 eaten .....she apologised and that was that !!!!!! Yet again we waited about 15 mins B4 I had to call over the manageress to ask for the bill ( we hadn't even been offered dessert menu and we were out celebrating a bday which I'd have said if we were offers dessert) I told her that the service had been really poor and she shrugged her shoulders and said sorry when the bill came It was €192 and my husband put €200 in the wallet and went to get the car. The girl took the wallet and never returned the €8. We were leaving it for a tip, even though I don't think it was deserved, but we weren't given an option as wallet wasn't returned to table I emailed the restaurant on my return home and received a phone call from the manageress the following evening She explained that they were very busy which I had said was great However, that wasn't my problem. We were paying guests also there was 3/4 tables free around us so they weren't really that busy, but when I said that she said they had been busy from 12 o'clock that day yet again, not my problem and then she went onto say cause of were we were seated they They tend not to see us !!!! I had booked for myself and my parents and sisters to go there for Christmas lunch in 2 days time and in my email I had sent I said I wanted to cancel the booking and on the phone call the manageress ask me, would I come in and allow For the staff to attend to us better than they had done on the Saturday night and I said absolutely no way. Unfortunately Mc Goverins has lost its magic and I could tell one from been able to get a booking two hours before our arranged reservation and two there was tables on the Saturday night before Christmas tables available around us when we were having a meal and when we were leaving. For this reason, I will most definitely will not be back to Mc Governs

The place was full and the staff were very friendly. We will defo be back.

A little background, Chef Oliver Dunne had a Michelin star/fine dining restaurant upstairs, but dropped the star and fine dining to focus on the brasserie downstairs. So I knew the food would be tasty. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted and our coats were checked. We were led to our table for 4 in the basement (I noticed the Tapas bar was very lively & busy before heading downstairs). Waiter was friendly; however, he seemed a bit overwhelmed and we would have to remind him of things. Food? Foie gras-tasty and unique presentation. I enjoyed this starter. Pappardelle-w/mushrooms & an egg. Delicious. Overall, my food was Very Good, but I did notice that my husband's fillet was not prepared correctly (he ordered medium rare and it was closer to medium well). I got the impression that he was disappointed with his entree. Thus, some hits and some misses. Finally, while waiting for a taxi that they ordered for us, we were given a tour upstairs where you can now host events. Seems a lovely setting for private events.

We knew it would be difficult to get into certain locations but we were easily able to make a reservation at this location. The only issue was right off the bat we were informed there weren't any more wings! Oh noooo.. so, the restaurant needs to have us back when they have them again! I ate the salad which was ridiculously good!!! I HIGHLY recommend it! My son and husband both thought they're dishes were good. The wait staff was okay. They weren't overly friendly but were helpful and hospitable. The drinks they offered weren't "fru fru" enough for me lol.

I would definitely go back to this place again.

You are required to order three items from the menu, which is no problem with all the delicious options. One of our dining guests got the scallop starter and kind enough to share a bite. It was fantastic. I had the deviled egg. Nice but not over the top. In hindsight, I'd would do double scallops. Round two was marinated tomatoes with ricotta cheese and peaches. A very good options for two of our guests. I had the Beef cheeks and ox tail in a Parker House roll with bone marrow gravy. Wow! Delicious! And another guest had the bone marrow with chimichurri and toasted brown bread. Fantastic! For mains, one couple shared the beef specialty, a sirloin roast cooked a perfect medium rare. My wife had the White Pork which is a thick cut pork chop. Very good, well seasoned as well as moist and tender. I had the pork schnitzel. While good, it was pretty basic. In hindsight, should have gone for the halibut. Wine list gave you ample opportunities to select from French wines and a few Italian. With one American. Would like to see this area of the restaurant expanded a bit. All in all a wonderful dining experience.

I've had some great steaks in my life, but this one took the cake. Every bite was rich, juicy, and unforgettable. I ate all over Ireland, and this was hands down my favorite meal of the trip.
