Top notch dining at Kitty's. This is your spot for an upscale seafood restaurant in Killarney, whether you are craving mains from the sea or land or both. I visited with family, and although we showed up a half hour ahead of our reservation they were able to accommodate and seat us right away. My family had been in search of a quality serving of oysters during our Ireland trip and took the opportunity here without a doubt. There are several options to order them and you can order as little as three at a time, which is nice since some places only do half dozen increments. The waitstaff was attentive and we even had the manager helping as well, although they did not always keep up with our quick wine drinking as well had to remind them to pour more wine a few times. A patron even pulled the fire alarm on accident but the manager quickly turned it off before it became a distraction. I would recommend Kitty's to any tourist looking for a higher quality meal on their trip like we were. read more

A good tourist town restaurant specializing in seafood and steak. Fish and chips prepared perfectly and served piping hot. "Sea bass" served with a nice pomegranate mango topping, fried half potatoes and steamed vegetables. Both were good. Murphys beer on tap for those tired of Guinness. Service efficient but not chatty. Ambiance is pretty plain. Nothing special. The music is American country, which is a little odd. Food was the highlight. read more

Kitty O’Se’s - "Sea bass" - Wine Bars Near Me - Killarney, Kentucky

Kitty O'Se's was recommended by the host of our B&B in Killarney, Ireland. It's a nice restrauant; quaint, cozy and romantic inside, with limited alfresco dinning available. 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. read more

Wow! We stopped in for a snack and beverage after exploring in Killarney National Park. The atmosphere is cute. We got to sit near the window and watch the world go by. The server was polite and pleasant. We shared an order of mussels and I was honestly blown away. They were the best mussels I've ever eaten, anywhere in the world. That's extra special because we used to live 1/2 hour from Penn Cove, Washington. If we had been in Killarney longer I would have loved to return for a proper meal. read more

Don't let the outside fool you, inside it is very bright and clean and inviting. The staff are super friendly, and the service was excellent and relatively quick. We had just came in from London and we're working away around Ireland. This was the best fish and chips we experienced on the entire trip! Five out of five agree lol. Plus, you got a little side of mushy peas to try as opposed to most places having to order it as a side that you may not even like. Having a little side of that was just enough. Everything we ordered was great, I did not get enough pictures. But you definitely want to eat here if you are in Killarney! Maybe even twice. Spoiler alert the second best fish and chips we had was also in Ireland, London took last place in that category. read more

If you're looking for a seafood place in Killarney, Kitty O'Se's is a great option in their downtown area. If it's a busy season, you might consider making a reservation to ensure you have a table, otherwise, they do take walk-ins. A note for visitors, if you plan to tip on a credit card, you can't, so bring cash. Parking: There's some paid/free car parks like Fair Hill and Lewis Road. Make sure to check the sign to see if it's during a metered time or if it's free. The Food: Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly. We started with the seafood chowder, which was creamy and rich. For mains, we had the sea bass and hake, both were tasty, and I would recommend them. Service: The service here was exceptional. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. They went above and beyond to make sure our experience was flawless, even though it was a casual restaurant. Overall, Kitty O'Se's is the perfect seafood spot if you're craving seafood in Killarney. It's the kind of place that makes you feel at home. I would recommend it whether you're staying here or passing through. read more

Greeted at the door by Kitty herself, who had a table set up to make room for use on the patio( restaurant was full) to our delight the welcoming we received was gracious and warm, the food & service -outstanding!!! My wife had the ravioli, and I had a special, a filet of beef served on a lava stone which I finished cooking on the stone at the table!! One of the best steak dishes I have had in my 70 years on this planet! The crispy potatoes , and steamed vegetables helped to make this such a memorable meal!! Make a reservation ( we did not) so you won't be disappointed , we were just lucky enough to have such a gracious host who pulled a table out of the back room and set it out on the patio for us!! Great people watching as well. Do not hesitate to dine at Kitty O'Se's read more

They accommodated us even though they were at capacity. The staff was very pleasant the service was outstanding even though they were completely full. The food was delicious cooked perfectly, my husband had the fish and chips with haddock, I had the special that consisted of mashed potatoes, a large piece of haddock cooked to perfection with 2 large prawn, steamed fresh vegetables, a grilled whole lemon, a lemon butter sauce that was perfect. We didn't wait long for our dinner and it was still hot. Ambiance was relaxed even with a full restaurant, the staff made your dining experience a wonderful one.

We arrived at Kitty O'Se's without a reservation but they were able to accommodate us after a short wait which we really appreciated! It was worth the wait!! The food was outstanding, the service was attentive without being overbearing and the atmosphere was fun. I had the hake which was served piping hot (which is how I like my dinners) and it was delicious. My wife had the salmon and it was equally outstanding. If you are in Killarney and are wise enough to make a reservation, it is a must to Kitty O'Se's on your list of excellent restaurants! read more

We didn't have much planned out for food while in Killarney. We had intended to explore and have an adventure, and that's exactly what we did. Meeting up with a new friend the night before, he recommended Kitty O'Se's when we asked where we could get some amazing seafood. We were able to get a last minute booking, and we actually got to sit outside, which was absolutely lovely. The restaurant itself is beautiful, and service was second to none. Our server was attentive, quick, and super friendly. We ordered the seafood tower, which was AMAZING (mussels, oysers, fish goujons, lobster, prawns, squid), and the seared scallops. The scallops were absolute perfection. Everything was SO good. For dessert, we had a flat white (yum), bailey's cheesecake, which I could cry it was that good, and an absolutely epic cheeseboard, that came with a shot of port. If you find yourself near Kitty O'Se's, stop in. You will not regret it. The food was absolutely delicious. read more

We just finished driving the Ring Of Kerry and was on the hunt for some seafood & stumbled on Kitty O'Se's. We were seated quickly and given menus. While looking at the menu, a server came over to tell us about the specials for the day and we ended up getting the Tomahawk cooked on a stone for 2 which included some seafood of mussels and shrimp for €75. This isn't the best quality tomahawk I've had, but it was still very delicious. It came with sides of sautéed mushroom, onions, tomato, roasted potato's, & vegetable medley, along with 2 dipping sauces and butter. The mussels were my favorite part. They were made in some sort of cream sauce and my boyfriend who is not a seafood eater also really enjoyed them. Service was very attentive and we felt very taken care of. We would definitely come back again! read more

Lovely pub in the heart of Kinsale. Friendly bartenders and live music while we were visiting. They did shut down food service early as it becomes more of a bar crowd later on so just be aware of that if you're hungry. read more

What an amazing experience!! We loved our meals.. got the calamari and Caesar salad to start, the ricotta and spinach ravioli, their famous fish and chips, and then the cheesecake of the day which was mars flavored! The portions are perfect. From the service to the food to the atmosphere, this is absolutely a 5 star restaurant. So happy we spent 1 of our 2 nights in Killarney here! Loved that we could simply email the restaurant to make a reservation. read more

OH MY GOODNESS GO HERE. The staff are so wonderful. Our waitresses and the management were so kind and accommodating. Make a reservation at night to sit inside, they'd appreciate it I'm sure. The seafood tower is PHENOMENAL. The wine is great. They don't have a full bar, but do yourself a favor and get a bottle of wine instead. The crab claws are the biggest I've ever seen. This was the best place we ate our entire honeymoon. Again, the food is incredible... seriously the best and most fresh seafood and tenderly battered fried fish... but the staff make the place. We will be back ANY time we come to Ireland. Thank y'all for a wonderful experience! read more

The best seafood chowder and tagliatelle we have ever had. And the chocolate tort was terrific Owner warm and personable. Go there! read more

My husband and I stopped here for lunch after a cold, rainy kayak adventure that morning. The seafood chowder was the best I have ever had! It was just what we needed to warm up. The appetizer would have been enough for me to eat as my meal. I ordered the special, the fish sandwich, and my hubby ordered the fish and chips. My portion was huge. The food was very good and we would happily go back to eat there again. The service was lovely and the staff were all very kind. The restaurant is small in size but they did a great job making it feel bigger than it is with the use of all the light colors. I highly recommend trying this place out for lunch. read more

Excellent food and service and we had the best little table for two by the window! Seafood Chowder and Surf & Turf were both delicious. We would definitely dine here again when in Killarney. read more

Salmon was great as was service. Seafood tower was good (not great). Had high hopes for the scallops with piped mashed potatoes- only okay. Nice wine selection. Would give Kitty's 3.5 stars not 4. Thus the 3 rating. read more

Small place but awesome music!! Celebrated my friend's birthday in Ireland and this place was recommended by the concierge at our hotel. Got to sit right next to the band! Great time! Would go again!! read more

Great food and atmosphere. Seafood tower was amazing. Fruit and cheese dessert was best we have had.

Great food and service! Pricing was reasonable. They do not take AMEX, but other cards are excepted.

My colleagues and had a fabulous dinner here on a chilly November evening. The bacon-wraped monk fish special was perfectly cooked. The sea bass was equally wonderful. read more
