Popped over to Galway for the Easter break and decided to try out Kirwan's Lane for a nice dinner before heading back east. When I made the reservation that morning, I was old there was only 1 table left - a good sign I thought. Upon arriving, we were greeted by a very friendly waitress and shown to a lovely table. After having a look at the menu and deciding what I was having, we were told the lobster was off the menu, the restaurant just wasn't available to buy it seemingly? Our wine selection wasn't available either. Down to business, I ordered the crab cocktail and the Scallops with hazelnuts and cauliflower purée. Himself had mushrooms on toast and the sea bass. When the starters arrived, my crab cocktail had morphed into prawn cocktail. I advised the maitre d, who made a face and took it away. Not the best service I've had recently. The rest of the meal passed without incident and it was acceptable, but not outstanding. Nice enough, but not the best value I've had recently.
