This has to be one of the best Fine Dining experiences in Galway, easily top 5. The food is of a very high quality and always has been. I have yet to get something that has had the slightest fault, I would not know if the chef has changed here over the last 5 years but the quality and craft has remained very high. It is also now very affordable due to some of the lunch and early bird menus available but you would not be disappointed paying full price. The restaurant itself has a lovely atmosphere even though if your a couple you may find that your table for two is in the line of passing traffic but everything else makes up for this. Staff are very attentive with out being intrusive. They are relaxed and polite and not overly fussy unlike other places that "pretend" to be up market, there is no pretence here only excellent service. I cannot but give 5 stars all the way.

I dined here with a group of girlfriends not so long ago and it was one of our finest Galway dining experiences yet. We arrived a little late but were shown straight to our table, which was tucked away in a corner. Our waitress was so friendly and knowledgeable about the whole menu, without being overbearing. We ordered wine recommended by our waitress - which was delicious, perfect with our food. To eat,we had a range of starters followed by seabass, black sole, steak and a lamb dish. All 4 were exceptional, with great fresh fish and lovely flavours from the meat. The atmosphere was relaxing yet there was a great buzz around with chatting guests and laughter throughout the night. We would rate this one our favourite dining experiences in Galway yet. Great value food and wine with excellent service. Thanks Vina Mara...we will definietly be back soon!

I dined here with my boyfriend. When we arrived at 7.15pm it was empty and we were shown to a table by a very friendly waitress. Several other parties arrived shortly after us which added to the atmosphere. We availed of the two-courses for €24 deal. I started with the Greek salad which had plenty of feta (yum). My boyfriend ordered the duck salad and he was very happy with it (as was I-I had to try it). We chose salmon and chicken for our mains, both were delicious. I substituted onion mash for the mustard mash that was supposed to come with the chicken, and this wasn't a problem at all. The only fault that we found was that dishes aren't served with vegetables-you have to order them seperately so it costs more. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and the experience, and I would highly recommend this restaurant.
