An almost hidden gem. Popped into this lovely place for the second time on Friday last. I went with the fillet steak for my main, done in a wellington-like pastry, which was cooked to asking (med-rare). Very tasty but lacking a nice crust. The lady had the swordfish special which was delicately cooked and was presented wonderfully. We shared a chocolate toffee pot for desert and had a lovely sparkling white (Crement d'Alsace) and a merlot with our mains. Service is some of the best in the city, very efficient and polite. A small space and usually always full but still creates a cosy atmosphere with your dining companions. Happily recommended.

My fiance and I have eaten on a few occasions in this restaurant. The service is great and staff are very attentive. I have eaten sirloin steak, which was cooked to perfection. He had chicken & pasta which was just as satisfying. The location is great as there are pubs a few minutes walk away if going for drinks after.

Great food at Fenn’s Quay! For lunch I had a pasta dish with Serrano ham, roasted red peppers, broccoli and tomato based sauce, while my other half had bangers & mash served with leaks and a red wine gravy. Both dishes were very good, the pasta was very tasty and even though I ordered the small portion it was very filling. For desert we shared a raspberry crème brulee, which was really creamy and yummy. Service was very friendly and prompt, and we will be back for sure.

I was super impressed by this unassuming place when I ate there with my wife last Monday. There were lots of other diners there, which is almost always a good sign. The chef in Fenn's Quay seems to have a real eye for detail and a flair for presentation. I like to try new places whenever I eat out, but my wife is the opposite and I know that she will be badgering me to bring her to Fenn's Quay for the next while. On the wine front, I would recommend the Cremant d'Alsace (sparkling) and the Villa Tonino Grillo (white) - both beautiful.

Fenn's Quay never disappoints on food. I been here several times for lunch or dinner and each occasion has been a pleasant experience. On my recent visit I had a delicious mediterranean fish soup which had lovely chunks of fish. I always love their crusty white bread, desserts are always good if you have room.

I have visited this restaurant on a few occasions when in Cork and went again on Saturday nite. However, on this occasion it was not as enjoyable as previous times. Both myself and my husband were happy with our starters - the anti-pasto plate and an asparagus dish. The couple with us ordered the mediterranean fish soup but were very disappointed with it - it was basically a tomato vegetable soup with some fish added. For mains the Swordfish was excellent but the Fillet steak was not very good - I don't know if this was a once off or not. We didn't have desert so cannot comment. Service was excellent and atmosphere very good but I felt that the quality was not the same as before. Not sure if I will return.

We visited this restaurant on monday the 29th of june for my wife's birthday, the decor is bright and fresh and relaxing. The service is fast, professional and diligent,the food is divine what can I say a menu bubbling over with sumptuous dishes to tempt your palate. My only gripe is that I cant currently visit this fine eatery once a week, due to the current climate so once a month will have to suffice. If you require first class sustenance in cork then look no further than Fenn's Quay.

Had a great lunch here yesterday. The lunch time choice was wide and varied and reasonably priced. I had the chicken and couscous and it was excellent- the chicken fresh tasting, light and spicy and the couscous bursting with flavours. The presentation was excellent with fresh herbs scattered on the dish. My dining partner had the salmon cakes and salad and pronounced them excellent. The lunch was good value at 13.95 each and the staff were attentive and responsive. Must dine there in tthe evening sometime soon!
