The food was filling, unique and the ambiance was unmatched with the waterfall in the window. The service was great, no complaints and all our needs met. Side note we also came here for breakfast as we stayed at the hotel and I will say the continental breakfast was perfect. My FAVORITE was the brown bread. I will be back for another delicious meal!

This was an unexpected find for us while in Cork - we were looking for a nice restaurant and this…read moreone hit our search filters and so glad it did. It is a little off the main street situated down behind Isaac's but you won't regret finding it. The setting is great with views of a waterfall outside the dining room. The food was of course the highlight and reason to visit. Truly enjoyed the generically named "Beef" dish which was like pot roast slow cooked and fall apart on your fork served with potatoes and carrots We also got the English market chicken supreme which was lovely and we shared a Goat cheese, beet root and apple appetizer which was fresh and tasty can't say enough about how much we enjoyed this meal. We will definitely be back

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!

My colleague and I had the set menu. I chose pork belly to start, followed by lemon sole and finished with a poached pear. The service, atmosphere and food was excellent. The bill came to about $125 per head which included a bottle of wine plus tip. Would highly recommend this establishment.

I didn't enjoy the ratatouille that accompanies the dish, but the fish was well worth it. The filet was also cooked perfectly and had great flavor! The chips were also yummy. Great texture outside and soft interior. Their own soup was also delicious. Great flavor and had a great onion to broth ratio.

The fish and chips were good but pretty standard. The mushy peas, though, were some of the better ones I've had on my trip. The crispy chicken torn salad was a bit of a surprise--the chicken wasn't crispy at all and seemed more like cooked chicken that had been torn up and pan-fried. Definitely different, but not what I was expecting. The restaurant was pretty packed, with people constantly coming and going. They also had tons of awards displayed outside, so clearly it's a popular spot in the area. Maybe I should have tried more dishes to figure out what all those awards are about.

We arrived at 8:45 for a drink or two at the bar and the hostess told me that the bar seats were typically reserved! Mind you, there are only two women at a bar with about 10-12 chairs and they were paying their bill and preparing to leave! So I am glad they could "find room" for us. The bartender asked us what we wanted without a smile or a welcome. I asked for a rum and a Rose for my wife. I drank my rum and about 20 minutes later, was ready for another. I pushed my glass towards the bar, as one does when you want another, and our bartender, another bartender and the owner/manager walked past that empty glass about 8-10 times without any acknowledgment that we were sat there. The whole vibe in Kinsale seems to be annoyance at the tourists. And it was clearly on display here. I would suggest going somewhere where you are welcomed. We are the ones that fees that economy.
