Ambiance was classy and we also did not feel inappropriately dressed in our jeans and sweatshirts (having just traveled from the Highlands in Scotland to Edinburgh to Dublin to Kinsale in a single day!) Service was chatty and friendly and kind. It was a bit noisy but not so much so that my partner and I could not hear each other. The food I had was fantastic: - Caesar salad - 5**/5 this is hands down the best Caesar salad I've ever had. I know that sounds weird to rate a basic Caesar but the lettuce was crisp and fresh and the dressing with just the right anchovy balance and ratio to the leaves and I loved the croutons (I usually skip them). Big enough for two to share. - special monkfish filets with beetroot - 5/5 outstanding dish with delicate flavors and two generous filets, especially good if you like beets! Came with crispy potatoes in a side dish which I appreciated because the beets didn't get them wet and they stayed crispy - west cork scallops 4/5, 8 generous scallops in the dish on an English pea risotto only downgraded because the risotto was not fully cooked - the rice was a bit crunchy in spots - strawberries and cream dessert - 4/5, only because for 9.95 that's a lot for a small bowl of berries and I do compare my strawberries to California farm fresh ones so that's a tough comparison Loved Kinsale and loved Fishy Fishy and hope to be back to both!

We had an overall awful and very expensive dinner last night at this highly rated Kinsale…read morerestaurant. Our family of 7 travelers waited over an hour for our main dishes. The waiter said there was a problem in the kitchen. My daughter in law's steak was severely undercooked. The arancini was not cooked enough. The first round of this appetizer was cooked well. We ordered 2 more of this dish. The rice in this round of rice balls was undercooked and crunchy. The lobster bisque was the best food I ate here. It went downhill from the first round of appetizers. The food was mostly average. We expected much more from this highly rated restaurant. The manager never came over to asked about our experience.. The wait staff seemed very stressed. We didn't ask but there was no adjustment offered to our bill and we ordered 3 rounds of drinks. Not worth the wait. Not worth the money. A big disappointment.

Now I normally don't go for steak as I'm traditionally not a fan but when hearing about Eco it was…read morehighly recommended to me to try their steaks. Never thought I would fall in love with streak until this dining experience! I think about this dish all the time and make it a must to go back and enjoy it again. Not to mention I was introduced to my favorite and go to red wine at this restaurant, so Eco has a special place in my heart. The restaurant is in a fairly busy section of Douglas but was able to find parking after circling a couple times. The restaurant is pretty small and can be a bit crowded and in true European fashion, toasty and warm. Eco is a great restaurant that many including myself enjoy and make a point to go to whenever in the area!

This place is very well-known in the area of Douglas/Cork and it is almost always busy. If you are…read moreplanning to go there during the night time or over the weekend, you must call to book ahead to avoid disappointment. I have been here before once for a family dinner and I was delighted as the food was great (even though I am usually in love with Italian grub anyway) and the place was booming with guests. This time I went with a few friends for lunch and it was only alright to be honest. As it was a Monday lunch, the restaurant had space for walk-ins. The atmosphere is quite nice with wooden furniture, big bowls, candlelight and when you check-in with Yelp, you get 2 free glasses of wine (woohoo!). I ordered Tagliatelle al Salmone served with basil cream and garlic bread and people around me choose many different options: beef sandwiches with side of chips, penne with chorizo, an open ciabatta with chicken/salad and farfalle with spicy sauce. My pasta was not fabulous but only alright and the side of fries was unfortunately made of thin strings. Everyone ate and it went well but it was not as good as when I was here last time in terms of taste and smell. The average lunch price for a plate of pasta or a sandwich as a main is 15€; they serve jars of water and as vegetarian options they have nut burger, stir-fry and curry. For starters, it varies from salad to corn and soup costing around 5€. Desserts are also around that price and you can expect ice-cream, brownies, banoffee pie and apple crumble. Prices rise by nearly a fiver in dinner time and from what I saw on the menu, the amount of choice is greater later on, hence its popularity then! Also, having a bread basket as antipasti and Parmesan on the table would add a lot to this place. Anyway, I would recommend going at night for sure!
