I ordered a cocktail that I'm assuming would be blocked via Yelp- so P-Star Martini is where we will end :-P It was good, but the best I had was in London a few days prior. I ordered the bangers & mash and was not disappointed. Their serving sizes were more than generous and the food was seasoned quite well. This is a place I'd give another go if in town.

Gilbert's is really good but a bit pricey. I workout a few times a week so sometimes I may be a bit…read morehungrier than your normal human. I've been here a few times now which speaks to the quality of food. When you walk in it's a very clean restaurant. Outdoor seating that unfortunately allows smoking and smoke does occasionally blow in through the door. Other than that the ambiance is immaculate. Good music, clean bathrooms and a clean looking kitchen what more could you ask? The service is one of the few shortcomings of this restaurant. We've been there a few times and a couple of times it seemed like the service was a bit slow. We have had to remind the waitstaff what we ordered. They're always polite and apologetic about anything missed, but they are a bit slow fairly often. The food is unimpeachable. The taste of almost everything on the menu is amazing. The portion size of the menu can be a bit mismatched. I'm not that hungry of a person but a single sushi roll will not suffice for your average appetite. Be prepared to order multiple courses or a few sides but it can add up fairly quickly. I usually get the hot roll and something else but it usually comes out to about 45 euro or 50 usd. It's a good restaurant but be prepared to pay a bit more and wait a bit longer. Delicious though!

The harbour town looked very well indeed and the walk along the West Beach area was very enjoyable.

Ambiance was classy and we also did not feel inappropriately dressed in our jeans and sweatshirts (having just traveled from the Highlands in Scotland to Edinburgh to Dublin to Kinsale in a single day!) Service was chatty and friendly and kind. It was a bit noisy but not so much so that my partner and I could not hear each other. The food I had was fantastic: - Caesar salad - 5**/5 this is hands down the best Caesar salad I've ever had. I know that sounds weird to rate a basic Caesar but the lettuce was crisp and fresh and the dressing with just the right anchovy balance and ratio to the leaves and I loved the croutons (I usually skip them). Big enough for two to share. - special monkfish filets with beetroot - 5/5 outstanding dish with delicate flavors and two generous filets, especially good if you like beets! Came with crispy potatoes in a side dish which I appreciated because the beets didn't get them wet and they stayed crispy - west cork scallops 4/5, 8 generous scallops in the dish on an English pea risotto only downgraded because the risotto was not fully cooked - the rice was a bit crunchy in spots - strawberries and cream dessert - 4/5, only because for 9.95 that's a lot for a small bowl of berries and I do compare my strawberries to California farm fresh ones so that's a tough comparison Loved Kinsale and loved Fishy Fishy and hope to be back to both!

The waiter said there was a problem in the kitchen. My daughter in law's steak was severely undercooked. The arancini was not cooked enough. The first round of this appetizer was cooked well. We ordered 2 more of this dish. The rice in this round of rice balls was undercooked and crunchy. The lobster bisque was the best food I ate here. It went downhill from the first round of appetizers. The food was mostly average. We expected much more from this highly rated restaurant. The manager never came over to asked about our experience.. The wait staff seemed very stressed. We didn't ask but there was no adjustment offered to our bill and we ordered 3 rounds of drinks. Not worth the wait. Not worth the money. A big disappointment.
