The Oak Room - Special, venison sausage with red cabbage and poitin jus

The Oak Room

An absolutely marvelous experience overall. Booked a table for 7:30 pm, but my job ended early and…read moreI arrived at 5:30 pm when they were opening, and was seated in no time. Dining room was spacious, chairs were comfortable, and very bright (in a pleasant way) lighting. Staff was friendly and they recommended specials of the day, and I ordered both the starter and the main specials. Starter: venison sausage with red cabbage and poitin jus. Sausage tasted great with vibrant flavor. Strong taste of venison meat was well-balanced by the sweet and sour red cabbage. Poitin jus also helping to offset the saltiness of sausages. Main: wild mallard (breast) with celeriac, wild mushrooms, and berries. A perfect dish to enjoy at night. I requested doneness to be a bit more than their usual medium (pink center), and the kitchen still managed to sear the duck breast to perfection, crispy skin with tender texture. Wild mallard breast packed a vigorous gamey flavor, not unlike the beef liver, but also had a lot of nuttiness. Wild mushrooms added forestry and wild outdoor vibe, while the berries and the jus helped offset the strong and lasting meaty flavor of the duck and cleanse the palate. Dessert: apple and honey crumble with vanilla ice cream. Slightly on the sweet side for me, but overall still a very satisfying way to wrap up the dinner. Strongly recommend this place to anyone visiting Cavan.

This is an excellent restaurant of choice for a good meal. Food is excellent and service…read moreexperienced and quick. Situated in the heart of Cavan it is accessible by walk or taxi from hotels further out. The four if us made reservations and got special "early bird" deals. Excellently priced with 3 course meal for under €27. And 2 course for under €21. It was full when we arrived so people must love to dine here. A parking lot 100m away. We parked literally across the street. Free WIFI. If you are looking for a great restaurant in town look no further!
