We had a fantastic evening celebrating a 40th birthday dinner. The staff were warm and welcoming and attentive. The food was delicious and lives up the restaurants Michelin star . All the produce was fresh and sourced from Ireland. We had the tasting menu and we did not regret it , as we were able to experience a range of dishes. My particular favourite was the sovereign street black pudding! As Ian ( the front of staff ) would say “we had a grand time ! “

Really friendly staff who were attentive throughout our meal. Our food tasted delicious . Only comment is that the plates could have been better presented. There was quite a lot of food on the plate and it lacked a bit of eye appeal. Otherwise a very enjoyable mid week meal!
