    Amazing Italian food. Head early though as it can get quite busy in the evenings. Worth the take away though

    Olio And Farino - Italian Panini with side salad.

    Olio And Farino

    Olio and Farino is a cute Italian cafe/bakery, located in Limerick's city center…read more My husband, sister and I split an appetizer platter with Italian meats and cheeses, olives, pesto, balsamic vinegar and ciabatta bread. Everything was very good! (Obviously not as good as the charcuterie in Italy, but really good!) The menu states that the appetizer we ordered serves two people, but this platter is huge and easily fed three of us. I wasn't very hungry for my panini by the time we finished the appetizer. The Italian panini I ordered wasn't as exciting as I had hoped and I wish I had ordered a salad instead. My husband and sister ordered the salads and theirs looked amazing. Avoid ordering the soda and stick with wine or water. My Coke was served in a wine glass with no ice and there were no refills. This cozy cafe was the perfect spot for a relaxing lunch!

    This is one of those times that I REALLY wish there were half stars on Yelp…read more I'm really hovering between three and four stars but in the interest of fairness I'm going to round down for a few reasons. This is a really nice cafe, lovely relaxing decor but plenty of more hearty dinner options if you're feeling up to it. The lunch menu isn't massive but covers all angles, and is not too expensive. I went for the garlic chicken, pepper and mozzarella panini (don't remember the exact name) but it was perfectly crispy and delicious, not overly filled with ingredients but a good chunk of everything in every bite. The salad that came with it was fresh and I actually ate it all, which I usually don't. An interesting mix of fruity and vinegary dressing. My only complaint is the sandwich wasn't big enough, I could easily have eaten two more halves. My lunchmates got pastas, the pesto and the carbonara. While the initial reports were positive as they ate they both said their choice was a bit bland, though miss carbonara commented that there's only one carbonara she really likes, so maybe that's not a full reflection of the dish. The portion sizes were great for lunch. We were going to get dessert but we sent one of our troops over to look and she wasn't too impressed with the selection - the apple tart *looked* a little dry. We're on a January health kick, so we weren't too pushed anyway. Overall, I was happy with the meal. The service was friendly, the place is relaxing and the food came out in plenty of time for our work lunch. But I have to take into account both my friends said they wouldn't return. I disagree, and would definitely come back for that sandwich. Perhaps another time I will!

    Who would have thought one of our favorite meals while visiting Ireland would be an Italian spot…read moretucked away in little ole downtown Ennis!? We were staying in nearby Dromoland and were after dinner that wasn't our hotel restaurant, so we wandered into downtown Ennis and then into Passatempo. When you think cute and quaint, you picture a place like Passatempo. They have only seven tables inside and when the weather is good, they have a few out front. We grabbed a table inside and were greeted by the owner who got us started on our meal. The owner and his family, authentic Italians who are clearly passionate about the food and drink, were delightful to interact with all night! Now the food...fresh made everything! So be patient, I promise it's worth it. We started with the crostini, which was a plate of 8 crositini's topped with a variety of fresh veggies, meats and sauces. My favorite was the red wine reduced onions and cheese crostini! For our mains, we got the lasagna and the spicy sausage pasta. The pasta is clearly made in house and with love, as do the sauces. The dishes were absolute perfection and delicious! And one surprising thing was the portion sizes, which were larger than expected, and we were good with it! While we did not partake, they did have a limited menu of Italian cocktails, wine and beer. And of course, several desserts including tiramisu. Overall, Passatempo was an absolute highlight of our trip and put Ennis on the map for us - Highly recommend!

    Beautiful quaint, Italian restaurant. My husband said it was…read morethe best he's ever had because it was nice and crunchy
