Food was lukewarm, service was very slow. Second time here, first time food was average, but it was quiet that time, so we tried again. There was xmas parties on but seemed a lack of staff to deal with volume of clients. Also it was freezing cold. Not sure why, though we did ask. They said air conditioning was off. Won’t be back

The burger was 10/10. We came here before a match in the Aviva and we were well looked after.

Really pretty and intimate venue, although the service is something could be worked on A LOT. They do have n/a champagne, which is great, the food is just fine, nothing special.

Listing said Irish cuisine. Menu card g8ven had four items, a burger, a middle east influenced dish, a ceasar salad and a baked fish of some sort. Restaurant inside of hotel, no signage, and looks like the casual quick place.

Outstanding food and service! We booked the Secret Garden for a low-key hen and it was the perfect location. The room itself had a lovely atmosphere, the staff were so attentive and the food was amazing. Thank you so much for a great time!

We dined in the secret garden for a friends birthday on Saturday afternoon. While the staff were lovely and super attentive, the food was a massive let down. All mains were €20+ which was not worth the quality of food received. I got the Piri Piri chicken which was half a plain unseasoned chicken breast with boil in a bag rice. I will not be returning
