I had a salad and garlic bread with some onion rings. The first two were very good ; the onion rings were lacking( tasted like Mrs Paul's with minced onion). My husband had the lamb.

As you're seated they bring you a complimentary bread basket with a variety of breads. There was one that I think was a pesto bread and it was delicious! All the food was good but the stand out for me was the Galway bay muscles. I don't know what they put in that cider cream reduction but I had to ask for extra bread to scrape that bowl clean! It's because of these muscles that I ordered muscles from every other restaurant I went to on my trip but none of them can compare. If you're in the area definitely check them out!

We had a wonderful meal at the Brasserie in the corner; a large inviting space with friendly…read moreservice and a focus on steaks and seafood. We were seated at a lovely table alongside a window so were able to watch the street activities with the off and on rain of early June. The broad menu tempted us to share starting with the delicious crab claw appetizer-about 6-8 small crab claws served in a buttery garlic sauce that you pick up and eat. Next we enjoyed the savory Caesar salad absolutely loaded with crispy bacon on a bed of butter lettuce. We split a 8 oz. Beef filet for our main and chose the rich whiskey peppercorn sauce as the topping. The meal came with fries/chips and there was fresh bread throughout the meal. There's a nice wine list and drinks menu. The frozen "parfait" with chocolate and baileys (more like a slice of ice cream) was a fitting end to the meal. We parked at the city lot at the market which has only a few minutes walk away. Recommended

This place was magical.

When walking through the various bar areas on a couple of floors to the bathroom, it was clear, this place is a must-visit spot if you're visiting Galway. We were seated at a table on Kirwan's Lane next to the side-street entrance that goes into the Slatehouse Bar that had some nice whiskey selections on the shelves. We enjoyed multiple rounds of Guinness, Magners cider, and pours of Jameson Crested and Redbreast while enjoying dinner. For my money, the Gilligan's Farm Rib-eye Beef Burger was magical. Between the rashers (bacon to the Irish), smoked cheddar, and Guinness, Carmelized Onion, and Jalapeno Jam, this burger was a beast. Located in the Latin Quarter of Galway, Busker Brownes has great energy and vibes as a spot that has great food and fun entertainment from the live music they normally have.

If you're looking for decent food with an interesting menu, I recommend this place. I had Halibut Havana style with cuban rice, which I found tasty. One person who had the same dish as me suggested it could use a bit of heat, but I don't think everyone would feel the same. It is tucked into a courtyard away from the bustle of the Latin Quarter and gives one a great atmosphere to talk and eat comfortably without having to leave.
