Great place for drinks!!! We popped in here not realizing it was cinco de mayo and they told us…read morethey had tacos as a special for the night. I knew better being American and loving actual tacos but I ordered them anyway. They were not bad but clearly not what I'd get back home in the states. All of the food was decent but not mind blowing. Others at my table had a burger, pizza and pasta. The staff was wonderful and the beer selection was great. They had beers I've never heard of so it was nice to try some different options. The atmosphere was pretty cool. They had bar stools on bicycle wheels with pedals and the lights were corsets. The water came in a bottle that said, "unfiltered unicorn tears." So overall it was a very cool place. I definitely recommend it if you want a drink and maybe a bite to eat if you aren't terribly picky about your food.

Ugh. Update your website!…read more I found Brick Lane on Yelp and when I looked up the menu on their website saw they had an unlimited wings deal on Wednesday and pub quiz at 8:30. Awesome! When we showed up and asked for the wing deal they said it's no longer offered. The 8:30 pub quiz didn't actually start until 9:52. Other than that it was a fun time. We got a few pints of Guinness and a pizza and had fun playing the quiz. The bartenders were friendly and prompt. Just get your website right so there aren't unmet expectations.

Great food. Both of my friends and I really really enjoyed our food. One tried the vegan burger and…read moresaid it was very nice. We enjoyed the ambiance, kind of like a millennial burger place (ifykyk) but super cool and had fun choices on the menu. Service was less than par but I blame that on our server particularly who when realized he was supposed to be serving outside (he had the front two sections of the place) lied and blamed his mistake on "female server" instead of taking responsibility. I'll be back either way, it was hilarious because we didn't really care lol.

I had the special (see black board) which was a chickpea and carrot burger with Tzatziki and: fries! Loved them, loved every single bite of my burger. The most outstanding service I have experienced in Ireland, the staff was friendly, quick, helpful, just awesome! Very well trained I must say! I seems like that they always get quite busy, so if you really want to eat here you better reserve a table. Otherwise they´ll try everything to squeeze you in.

As a tourist abroad from NY this place is a gem & if I ever come back to Cork this will be the…read morefirst place I visit. Gourmet Burger Bistro not only has amazing curb appeal the food is also great. I went with the Chilli Burger (which has a 100% organic beef burger w/ jalapeño salsa and sweet chili mayo - I added monetary jack cheese also, the burgers come garnished with the flag of the country they are named after... but the "Chilli Burger" on the menu I think is a play on words for Chile (example of other burgers: Irish, Greek, American, etc.). The burger had a little kick with the jalapeño salsa but was tamed down with the sweet chili mayo for a perfect balance. The service was quick and polite, unlike many places in Dublin that i've visited & the food is reasonably priced. As soon as I was seated I was greeted by a server and brought ice water... thank the heavens, I was so thirsty and find myself always having to ask for water instead of it being brought as a curtesy with my meal. The place is very clean and waiting time on your burgers is quick. They had daily specials with both the burgers and dessert & have alcoholic beverages too. Vegetarians are also welcome, they have many veggie burger and salad options.

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.

We decided to have dinner in Midleton after the Jameson whiskey tour and took one of Conor's (a…read morebartender from the tour) recommendations to La Trattoria. And we are glad we did!! The place was small but felt newly remodeled and like all the other restaurants in Ireland so far, the staff was very nice. We had pasta (penne Bolognese) and a spicy pepper and sausage pizza. Both were good, not the best we've ever had but we were happy with our decision to go there. After we ate, we started chatting with the couple next to us. We were impressed that they managed to eat a plate of chicken wings as a starter and soup, followed by a full Irish dinner for him, and a large salad for her. They were likely equally impressed that we finished our pizza, garlic bread and most of the pasta, followed by a HUGE piece of chocolate cake and ice cream! The only negative review about this little restaurant was that the bathroom was dirty. We would still recommend, and hopefully that's a non-issue for anyone else.
