We had high hopes for CellarOne based on the reviews. Although service, live music, and ambience…read morewere very nice, our meals were a huge let down. Our salad lacked flavor. The duck leg was highly recommended by our server who said that the meat just melts off the bone. It was anything but. The meat was so tough I could barely cut and chew it... and left almost all of it on my plate. It was served with very tiny slivers of sweet potato chips with odd tasting berries. When I complained to the server (who had been absent a while), she apologized and said I wished I had told her sooner... but I couldn't find her. The stone bass was thick and bland tasting. The one saving grace was the brownie dessert.

The room I booked at our Killarney hotel, The Ross, came with daily breakfast and one dinner at…read moretheir restaurant, CellarOne. The restaurant is one level below the trendy and beautiful bar and lounge, and has a stunning upscale ambience, not industrial, but warm and welcoming. As with many restaurants in Ireland, they offer a two or three-course prix fixe menu; here it was 29 or 39 euro, a quarter to a third higher than the usual run-of-the-mill place. But it was definitely worth it, even if it hadn't been included with our room. Ours was the two-course; we could choose either a starter or dessert, so we had starters. Mine was the spinach/rocket/strawberry/walnuts/fried goat cheese salad. I don't like rocket (we call it arugula), and it was no problem to have that changed to lettuce. It came with a raspberry walnut dressing, and was delicious. My husband chose Risotto over an Arrabbiata/tomato jam sauce. They turned up as three plump Italian rice balls, and the dish was equally delectable. My husband had the Linguine Pasta for his main. It was outstanding, and I wish I'd ordered it, too. But I picked the prawns. I had high hopes, since everything else had been so good. Alas, they were awful, with a strange, unidentifiable taste, not quite iodine-y although, since I've never dined on iodine, maybe that's what it was. The manager, Miriama, was apologetic and so willing to swap it for something else, but I was already full and was satisfied with a very good cup of coffee. If this hadn't been marred by the terrible prawns, it would have been a 5-star rave. But overall, the dining experience was so lovely, and the service and ambience so good, that I have to give it 4.

We walked by Land to Sea restaurant on Friday and saw that it was very crowded so we booked the…read moreearly bird reservation for Saturday evening. This was done through email on their website and was seamless. This restaurant is on its way to a Michelin star, in my opinion. I'm maybe not a total foodie, but I have eaten in many excellent restaurants and this is among them. All the food we were served seemed to be local and freshly prepared. Even down to the house pickles. Every part of each dish was curated and prepared with thought. The flavors all worked together seamlessly and the dishes were beautiful to look at and to eat. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable, and gracious in answering all of our questions. And we had many of them considering we are not locals and we were fascinated with their creations and selections of food. I highly recommend land to Sea restaurant if you're in Dingle. It would not surprise me if it soon earns a star and you will not be able to get a reservation. Go now!

Walked in without a reservation and luckily got a table for 2. The hostess was not friendly, she…read morewas quite rude. That being said, she was not Irish (every Irish person we came in contact with were lovely!). She sat us and told us the soup was Tomato bisque and I was very excited because it's one of my favorites and I'm a vegetarian (not vegan). There was an early special and you could choose 2 or 3 options. I chose the soup and a fish dish. It did take quite a while for a server to show up and take our order. It then took a long time to get our drinks and it wasn't very busy at that point. The soup was delivered and it was lamb stew. I understand mistakes can happen. The server said I could choose something else on the menu and I didn't see anything that was vegetarian or that I liked. I said the fish alone would be fine. I did not like it at all. It wasn't flavorful. I'm sorry, I know it's an unpopular opinion as I saw many 5 star reviews, but I am very surprised that this is a Michelin restaurant. I would like to add that my husband really enjoyed his meal and the atmosphere was great. Maybe a bad night for them? Or maybe I was just hangry.

Rich, creamy with nice chunks of fish. I opted for a veggie main - Mediterranean quinoa - which hit the spot. It was fresh, light and flavoursome. I quite enjoyed the breaded slice of tofu. I would have liked more than one slice! My companions had the steak which they raved about and also the smoked hake which was good too. We had a 500mL carafe of red wine. I loved that they offer this as an option rather than ordering a full bottle! Our waitress was friendly and did a great job. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in Galway. It's not the most innovative menu but the food is consistent and you won't be disappointed!

I recently had dinner at Vina Mara and had a fine enough evening, but was not wowed by the place. I…read morethink that things were colored by the fact that there was a large hen party taking over half the restaurant, which made it quite loud and busied up the staff a bit too much. Our food came out quickly enough, and I have to say that my 'Connemara Lamb Journey' was nothing to write home about. The portion was reasonable, but the lamb was not cooked to my liking (overdone, generally) and the cauliflower puree was lumpy and disappointingly flavorless. However, my dining companion's roasted baby monk fish with chorizo and cannellini bean cassoulet was fabulous. So, perhaps I just ordered the wrong thing? I don't like to base reviews off of one meal, but I don't think I'd be bothered to try Vina Mara again given the expense of the first experience (nearly €70, including a half bottle of wine, two mains and nothing else).
