The reviews and appearance of the restaurant looked promising so I decided I'd give it a try especially since they offer gluten free options. Although the staff was friendly and the restaurant was cute inside, the service was slow which didn't make much sense since I only saw 3 or 4 other tables occupied. The more disappointing part though was the food not being great. Maybe I should have tried something else and yes it was gluten free but I've definitely had better gluten free pizzas at other authentic Italian restaurants.

The mushroom risotto was perfectly creamy and earthy. The only complaint was the service was relatively unfriendly.

After we were done eating it took about an hour to flag down a waitress and pay the bill to leave.

The pizza and the wine were good and there was enough pizza to feed two people. The second night we ordered Italian dishes and the same wine. That meal was good too. The restaurant is fairly large compared to other Irish restaurants in the area. That means you can all spread out during covid. Service was very good. They seem to employ a lot of non-Irish servers. Our primary server was from Spain and he was assisted by a young woman from Ukraine. This town has a large number of Ukrainian refugees and many of them work in the restaurants. If you wave to a server and she/he runs away, it is because their English is not good enough to help you. They will send over someone who can help. Just be patient.
