The grilled Brie was a great starter, and the bread with butter and a dipping sauce were so good. Great flavor and grilled perfectly. The bread was so good we asked for more.

This review is for the restaurant not the pub. We came for lunch and found all the usual Irish pub…read moreofferings. The pie of the day, not on the menu, was steak and kidney, which I had to try "for research purposes". The pastry crust extended to the sides and bottom so it fully enclosed the filling and was served "freestanding". Crust and gravy were excellent. In the filling, both the steak and the kidneys were plentiful. My research completed, I probably wouldn't order it again; just give me the steak - no more kidneys please! Nevertheless I did enjoy and finished it. This was served with decent fries and a truly excellent green salad: a variety of leafy greens, radishes, cucumbers, pickled onions, and pre-dressed with a vinaigrette. The wife had the Beef & Guinness Casserole, served with brown bread. Along with steak there were also plentiful veggies (root vegetables and celery) and mashed potatoes in the center. She liked it. I tried it and agreed. I would get that next time. I had a Jameson Old Fashioned to drink and it was the best Old Fashioned I've had in some time. The unusually large twisted orange peel probably contributed and it may have had more than the customary amount of bitters. The wife's tea was amusingly served with a knitted "cozy" keeping the teapot hot. For dessert we shared a Sticky Toffee Pudding, served with vanilla ice cream, attractively presented with a dusting of sugar, whipped cream, and a ground cherry complete with its leaves. I'd rate it second among the three I've tried so far. Would certainly order it again. As for the pub I can't say. It has a reputation for good traditional Irish music every night but unfortunately not until 9:30, way too late for us. Sadly we're just not pub people.

Many tourists have been back and forth that road since then but the pub, attached to a hotel, is not doing at all badly, though you'd have thought the maintenance work, which put the outside benches out of commission, going on this week would have been done at the start of the season. Killarney was very busy and there were quite a few in Mollys in mid-afternoon, some snacking, some drinking and some doing both. We were met by a smiling waiter on the way in and ordered coffees which were brought to our table. The coffee was better than average and top-ups were available. We enjoyed our interlude there.

While enjoying some lovely Guinness, we had succulent burgers and/or lamb stew. The meat was so tender, flavorful. Our second night, we were treated to a magnificent quartet of young Irish musicians and some Irish dancers. They even played Johnny Cash! The clientele was very "American," and it attaches onto a hotel, so at first, I thought it would be a tourist trap. But I loved it. Great food, great service, great music, great craic!

I ordered the sea bass, which came with asparagus, blistered tomatoes and capers, and chorizo potatoes. The portion was large and the fish was excellent.

The food was outstanding and reasonably priced. The desert choices were plentiful and delicious. It was a wonderful experience!! The next night we returned again because they were having Irish music and dancers. If you plan to attend this event, go early. It starts at 8 PM and you should be at a table by 630 to get a great spot. It is obviously very popular because it is fantastic. The band was wonderful and the dancers were amazing. We would absolutely return to this restaurant again if we are back in the area.

We stayed in the attached Muckross Park Hotel, and were advised to arrive a little early for dinner…read morebecause they had a trad music show starting at 8pm. We arrived around 700pm, and most tables were filled with a tour-bus crowd. There was one four-top table open by the restrooms, or seats at the bar. We sat at the bar and had a good view of the musicians and dancers. The rest of the bar seats filled up before the show. We had pints of cider and ordered food. My husband had the fish and chips (better than average), and I had the lamb and rosemary pie. I definitely won - mine was delicious! My pie was a ceramic ramekin of savory lamb, carrots, potatoes, and gravy, topped with a bronze, flaky puff-pastry round, speared with a sprig of fresh rosemary. A small chunk of bread accompanied it (largely unnecessary), plus a small bowl of roasted root vegetables. By the time we finished, it was time to swivel our chairs around and listen to the music. Three dancers accompanied the musicians for a few numbers. They also went out into the crowd to show off their steps.

The place was packed which was a good sign and we quickly ordered our meals as we were starving. The Beef Stew came with three different servings of potatoes and from what I recall it was decent. What made this meal really exceptional was the dessert. Warm banana pie with delicious cold ice cream. Over the span of our 15-day trip in Ireland this was either my favorite dessert or tied as my favorite dessert for the trip. Also, this restaurant is in a very nice shopping area that you can easily walk and shop for hours in after your meal. As always people SYOY!!!

My husband and I were on the lookout for a dinner spot and didn't realize we needed a reservation. Luckily, we stumbled upon Bricin around 6:30 pm, right at the peak of dinner time. We were warmly greeted by the staff and asked to wait just a bit to see if they could fit us in. After a brief 15 minutes, Johnny worked his magic and found us a lovely table for two. Our server, Elizabeth, was absolutely wonderful! She made us feel right at home as we settled in for what turned out to be an incredible meal. I chose the Pork Apricot, while my husband enjoyed the Oven Roasted Duck Breast, both accompanied by generous servings of fresh vegetables and mashed potatoes. Every bite was perfection! With our bellies full and happy, we left to continue our vacation adventure, but not without emphasizing how much we appreciated Johnny and the amazing team at Bricin. We truly felt the warmth of an Irish welcome. If you're in town, make sure to stop by--you won't regret it! #Bricin #DiningExperience #IrishHospitality #GratefulCustomer
