I went to Pimento's to see what Carlow had to offer regarding Tapas. I am from Bilbao, Spain and was travelling through Ireland with three of my friends. From the outset we could tell that this restaurant was far from "Tapas". Sliders on a menu??? Are you kidding me. We had the Patasas Bravas, it was cold and extremely dry. After we ordered Gambas al Ajillo (Garlic Shrimp) and my god what I saw was a sight to behold. Buried beneath were 3 thick, curly, dark hairs. I notified the waiter immediately and she just laughed at me saying she'd bring me another, as if 3 hairs meant nothing, no apology or anything. I took this up with the lady manager when paying and she tried to tell us that they were our own hairs. This place is a sad excuse for a Tapas bar. read more
