Ate here for the third time recently. The first two times the service and food were practically flawless and had become my favourite restaurant. However my last visit wasn't as successful unfortunately. Mainly because of the change of menu of which my favourites have been removed! No goats cheese starter so instead I opted for the mushroom ravioli which was overpowered by the rocket sauce. The starter special of a black pudding tarte tatin was poor as was the main special - sea trout with crab and chive risotto (very little crab, too much chives and pretty bland overall). Although the trout itself was delicious as were the prawns. The duck with crushed sweet potato has also been replaced which is unfortunate as its rare to see sweet potato on a menu, and also the fish with gnocchi. Steaks were described as cooked well but the meat itself was a bit tasteless. Our creme brulee was slightly overdone on this occasion although had been delicious previously. However the trio of ice-cream was superb and obviously homemade. Service was still impeccable and staff were very helpful. Will return again however and try some of their newer menu options.

Must say this is a gem of a restaurant, real food at real prices. Every time I've been I've had pork belly and it just doesn't get old. Service is friendly and its most certainly a busy spot. Chef seems to take great care in his plates. A special confit duck salad was on last time I was there, delicious. I also recommend the creme brulee. Going again on Friday and I cant wait

Tribes is a nice spot near the Dart and in the busy village of Glasthule. Went there for the second time in two years since I didn't want to head into town for all the Aviva Stadium traffic. They still always make you feel welcome and place was a buzz on Thursday, and I managed to make the early bird. I had prawns to start and pork belly and a glass of crispy white. I had to try the homemade brown bread ice-cream which was delicious. The bill was ok, still had lots of change for later on. It's great to have a restaurant so near, that you don't need to head into the city for. Wonder where and why the Tribes name. Will ask them next time soon.
