    calamari-- massive portion!
    Kate D.

    This is a really really cool spot, far more trendy than I was expecting in little old Killorglin. The bar is free for walk-ins as was said below, so that's where we ended up. We got some wine and a couple of tapas each. I always feel a bit shorted after tapas, because they're usually half the price of a full meal but you really feel you should be able to pick three or four to make up a decent platter. I went for the chorizo mash and calamari, and both were delicious. The service is a little slow and at the bar there are a good few bar backs and bartenders that wouldn't really look at us, but it was a busy night on the bank holiday so it didn't really concern me. The place gets super hot though, be warned.

    Great space! In an old church.

    Lovely ambiance in an updated, old stone church. I had a delicious seasonal salad with wonderfully fresh fruit, vegetables and greens. Also split daily special crostini with creamy goat cheese. My husband had hummus and tapenade on fresh bread, he was in heaven.

    My favourite spot to visit when we are in Killorglin! Food is always top notch and service excellent. Menu changes regularly and always has interesting specials. Got a table on New Year's Eve last minute and enjoyed another fabulous meal. We ordered a selection of tapas and shared, the cod special with egg sounded so strange but was amazing! Calamari is excellent. Desserts are fab as well. Well priced too. Highly recommended even if it seems odd eating tapas in rural Ireland!

    We came here looking for tapas, and had a fine meal. We try to steer clear of eating a lot of extra…read morebread, but the server talked us into ordering some of their bread to accompany our dishes. When the food came out, we discovered many of our tapas plates also had bread on them. BREAD OVERLOAD. Other than that avalanche of carbs, the food was good. We ordered a bottle of Rioja and everything was reasonably priced. This is a great place to dine in Killarney if you're looking to get away from the meat and potatoes.

    Even though they didn't have a couple items on the menu, the food we were able to get was…read moreexcellent. Another nice thing is that this isn't on the main street so not as much foot traffic walking past, and the environment inside is a nice low light eating experience. The only complaints I have that gives them 4 stars instead of 5 is the service. At first they tried to sit us in some crappy little table, even though they had nicer tables available. We asked and they moved us no problem. And when it came to ordering and serving they were great, but as we finished up our food the server vanished. She never came back to see if we wanted dessert or more drinks, which we would have ordered, and spending more money. We eventually lost interest in more drinks or food, and we eventually had to walk to the counter to get a check and pay. Other than that though, fantastic place and i would eat here again.
