The lobster ravioli was to die for good. Honestly, I could've had two more and called that a meal. Superb!!! However I forged on to the main course of delicious monkfish and chicken and mushroom lasagna. Again, very tasty. The monkfish was perfectly seasoned and was delicious. The lasagna was a mixture of mushrooms and chicken puréed and placed between thin flat noodles. For desert I had vanilla parfait with strawberry reduction and sorbet. All was completely delicious. Don't walk, run to this little gem of a restaurant.

Campagne is really an *outstanding* restaurant…read more I can't give it anything but 5 stars. It is absolutely amazing that they have a Michelin, considering how difficult it is to get one (and considering how traditional the judges are :) ?) But they totally deserve it. Let me tell you why... I was on a day trip to Kilkenny and decided to give it a try. It was one of the best decision I took that day :) We went for the 3 course meal with wine. The starters were amazing. My SO had the Guinea fowl sausage with lentils. The sausage was good, but the lentils were delicious, with a perfect seasoning. Lentils can be a little dull, but there it was a pleasure for the palate. I took the Celeriac mousse, which can sound a little boring too... But was incredible. There were so many different tastes in this plate, with the hazelnut dressing perfectly balancing the acid and sweet taste of the pickled ear. The celeriac mousse and chutney were very interesting (and delicious). For now, perfect performance, Campagne! The dishes arrived quickly after, with a colloquial and very nice waitress. We shared the roast cod and the pork belly. Spoiler: both were a success. The pork belly was tasty, perfectly grilled. The plate was absolutely beautiful, and as good for the mouth as it was for the eyes. What was the best in this dish was the jus, which gave an incredible taste to everything, including the cabage. The roast cod was outstanding. Not only it was beautiful, but the piece of cud was huge and everything in this dish worked perfectly. The different tastes replied one to another. I'm usually not a fan of cauliflower, but I couldn't stop myself from eating the whole plate. The lobster bisque emulsion and cauliflower purée were perfect with the cod... All this with fresh food and skilled cooking, what else? The wine was exceptionally cheap and good (as a froggy wine lover!) We had the Mont d'Or, and it passed the test of filling our 2-month good-cheese craving. Creamy, tasty, decadent... Yummy! The dessert was also of high level. The chestnut ice cream was crazy good. The opera was nice but slightly lacked this layered feeling I love so much. However, I would lie if I didn't say that it was really good. The best surprise was the bill, which was of 32€ for the 3 course menu, and 9€ for 2 glasses of wine. Long live Campagne! Thank you for this delish experience... I'm already planning to come back!

We walked all over town looking for a place to have dinner and nothing really appealed to us. A customer of Bubble Rock Tea told us about this wonderful French restaurant around the corner that had a great pre-fixe menu for 20 euros that included a glass of wine. Food: 5/5 Stars The French onion soup I ordered as my starter was delicious! The house red wine was great. I can't remember what I ordered, but I ended up ordering another. I ordered the fish stew as my main course and that was amazing. They bring it to you in the cast iron pot so it stays nice a hot. The French bread was great too. My hubby and son ordered the beef bourguignon and they loved it. My hubby ordered the chocolate souffle for dessert and I ordered the carrot cake. Everything was amazing from start to finish. Service: 5/5 Stars The service was perfect. Our servers were friendly and very efficient. Ambiance: 5/5 Stars It was perfect. I loved the decor, lighting and overall relaxing feeling.

Attending a work dinner with about 40 others I was initially very taken with the location right beside, as the address suggests, an actual harbour in the town, albeit a tributary off the Royal Canal. But still. A very nice dining room complimented by efficient and friendly staff greeted me. It's billed as a French restaurant but, based on the 'event' menu we used, there was little Francophile about the place. For starter I had a very good hock terrine (hello 1977) having already demolished the excellent and copious bread on the table. Mains choices were seabass, chicken and steak. I chose the steak (medium rare and perfectly cooked) with moreish chips I very reluctantly shared with my less fortunate neighbour. Incidentally, they coped admirably with our large crew which pretty much dominated the restaurant and was probably a bit of a nightmare for the kitchen so well done on the organisation front too. I would definitely return to sample their carte menu as, good as it was, I don't think the special menu did the kitchen justice. Potentially top notch.

I found the surroundings a little less nice than one might expect for what was supposed to be one of the best restaurants in Cork, according to our hotel. It's essentially a prix fixe dinner, with multiple variations. Appetizers were excellent. A crab salad was delicious, as was the gravlax. The prawns in phillo -- which I thought were going to turn out to be some tired en croute dish -- were instead more like spring rolls, and they were outstanding. We had some time to contemplate the first course. In fact, a lot of time. In fact, an unreasonable amount of time. In fact, we had to speak the waitress -- twice -- about the passing of time. And when the second course came, it was a disappointment. A lamb dish was stringy; it reminded me of pot roast. My own roast pork belly -- typically a juicy cut -- was dry (no wonder they included sauce on the side). A dish of pasta and chicken was tasty, but it was pasta and chicken. I think there's a very good restaurant in here somewhere. But we didn't get their "A" game, regrettably. Much as I want to give it more stars -- and it certainly deserves 3.5, had the system allowed -- I think 3 stars is right, given the prices they are charging.

My partner chose the 2-course offer, while I decided to have escargot and entrecôte (steak fries), which was not included in the package.

Wow. What a meal…read more Just two weeks old, and already a well-oiled (and extremely tasty) machine. Usually when you visit a restaurant that's so new, there are lots of chinks that need ironing out, processes that need tweaking, menus that aren't quuuite spot on yet. Not so in Canteen. You could be forgiven to assume it had been there for years. The staff and management have clearly taken the best bits from their old Blackrock haunt, and added to them for the new Celbridge abode. From beginning to end, everything about the meal was perfect. - The piping hot just out of the oven bread and soft butter landed on the table as soon as we came in - The exquisite amuse bouche that followed straight after - The menu which strikes the perfect balance between modern Irish & French cuisine - not too fussy and not too plain. In fact we had a few fussy eaters on our table, and everyone without exception demolished everything put in front of them. A testiment indeed to the fresh ingrediants and clever combinations. - The decadent truffles that completed the experience! Now, a special mention to the star of the show. The Crème brûlée. Mother. Of. Deserts. Hands down the best crème brûlée I've ever had. The richest, most dense & velvetty caramel. Wow. I'm still thinking about it. The interior is slick - painted in a grey and blue pallet, with massive floor to ceiling windows, minimalist lighting and contemporary art, it's got a serene feel, and manages to thread the line successfully between sophistication and quirkiness. The staff were on point - friendly, efficient and knowledgable. Then there's the price. If you count the bread, amuse bouche, three courses and the truffles at the end, you're essentially getting a five course meal for 38 euro. Incredible value. With wine, 55 euro. Worth every cent. This is the type of place that Celbridge has been crying out for. They're going to do exceptionally well. More power to them.

I waited too long to review so some of the details escape me. Such as the appetizer we shared:…read moreConfit Pork Shoulder Croquettes, with quince puree, pickled shittake, and celeriac remoulade. The entrees were more memorable. I had the Fillet Of Irish Beef. I hardly ever order filet mignon but I'm glad I did. It may well be the best I've ever had. With Café de Paris butter, shallot pureé, pepper sauce, rocket (arugula), and a side of french fries. The flavor of the meat itself was incredible and the three sauces complemented it perfectly. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare as ordered. French fries aren't normally something to get excited about but these were a gastronomic masterpiece; the insides soft and sweet, not starchy, the outsides browned and subtly crisp, and I don't know what they were fried in but these had so much flavor it must have been beef tallow or duck fat. I'd come here again just to have a platter of these amazing fries! The wife's Coq Au Vin Façon La Maison (chicken breast braised in red wine, smoked bacon, mushrooms, baby onions, roast carrot, pomme purée) was equally memorable. I've never considering ordering this, thinking it too simple or plain. Not this. The red wine sauce really elevated a simple braised chicken. And how do they make even a simple carrot taste so good? We each had a wine from the ample selection of by the glass offerings and shared a gingery dessert which we both enjoyed. The service was good and not rushed. Just don't be intimidated by the waiter, who announced when he brought the bill that tip was not included; it seems this could have been handled more subtly.
