There's little web presence for this place, but don't let that turn you off.
A reputation of expensive dishes, after a recent re-vamp, this restaurant has dropped prices to cater to diner's needs and they have managed to pack the place out! This is a family run establishment, the parents have now handed the business to their son, and the family atmosphere is definately evident here.
The usual Italian/Irish dishes on the menu of pasta, chicken, pizza etc., but not less than any standard you would expect in Dublin city. If you are a local or if you fancy a drive to Celbridge, perhaps you may be visiting some local heritage sites, this restaurant is definately worth your consideration. My parents generally book beforehand so I'm not sure if it is ok to just drop in as floorspace is not huge.
A period property, the setting is quaint and cosy and, although they fit lots of tables into a small area, it is not crowded or noisy.
I had bruschetta, pizza and pavalova. I couldn't complain about any of it, all yummy and the waiter even offered to wrap up the remainder of my pizza for later, which I thought was a nice touch. Everyone at the table enjoyed their pizzas, steak and chicken. Soup starters and ice cream deserts were also well received.
The toilets are a climb upstairs but they are lovely and clean and spacious.
Parking is on-street, but you can generally find a spot around here.
The door isn't the widest so I'm not sure if it is wheelchair or pram/buggy friendly.
The staff is friendly, they took our desert order, then brought out the cake we had bought for my mum, then the waitress came back and asked us if we really wanted our desert orders or if we just wanted her to cut the cake, which I thought was a nice touch. We took the desert and had cake later :)
All round, a positive experience, I wouldn't hesitate to go back or reccommend for couples or family groups. read more
