This restaurant was great, for such a posh looking restaurant it's really affordable! I ordered…read moresoup for 4.95 and a sushi starter for 7.95 and was fully satisfied for only 13 euro, since they give bread too. My friends ordered risotto, which looked really good but the serving was quite large so they ended up taking half home. The menu is pretty diverse, from a huge list of entrees, burgers, mains like salmon, chicken dishes, stew etc., a burger menu and finally dessert! I wouldn't say cheap but not expensive either. We all paid about 13~16 each for dinner. The atmosphere is pretty classy and romantic with the dim lights, red chairs and candles, so it's quite formal dress. There's also a bar and a good cocktail and drinks menu. The service was excellent. The girl tending to us was really attentive and checked up on us ever so often. By the way, we came on a Monday evening so it was reeeaaaally quiet, like us and 5 other people. I'm sure it would be more lively on the weekends, which I'd say would be a better time to go. But Drogheda is pretty small and quiet in general. Overall, nice atmosphere, good service and affordable.

It was so noisy which i know makes me sound ancient but we were having a meal and I literally had to struggle to hear the person sitting next to me. There were also people dancing right beside our table which is really disconcerting when you are eating The food was nothing memorable either good or bad and it's not cheap. The service was very quick but annoyingly as soon as we finished our main course they brought us the bill with no offers of desert or teas/coffees. When we asked they said no that the kitchen was closed. This was a little irritating as we had not been there very long and they didn't tell us when we booked or ordered. I think if they take a booking for a table at 9PM then they need to keep the kitchen open to accommodate that. There was no apology it was just matter of fact. Don't think i'll be back

First thing that hit mevsas the prices. I mean, everything is expensive on the menu, across the board. Like Celtic Ireland prices man!! I went for the Chicken Supreme as I hadn't had it in ages plus the sweet potato and Cajun jus got me interested. The portion was pretty massive and the food was decent. Was disappointed with the sweet potato though, pretty bland tbh. So overall, it's okay but not worth the dosh doled out for me.

My Trim friends go here every Sunday afternoon with their families and I can see why. The portions are huge...the Ribs JR starter could have easily been a main. The menu is rather expansive and covers everything from Italian pasta, to French favourites like Duck a l'orange, to American Buffalo wings to Asian-inspired dishes like hoisin chicken. Yet despite this globe trotting offering, the food is actually quite good. Service is friendly and very quick. And did I mention that the portions are ginormous?!? The early bird menu is great value too at under 20 euros for a starter and main. I've been twice now and definitely would go back next time I'm in Trim.

One person was bartending, there was one server, and one other person who wasn't doing either. The food was good (not great, but good), the restaurant was clean, but double check your bill.
