Had a lovely evening in this restaurant. It is a bit on the expensive side, don't expect a main course for less than €30. But saying that the food is lovely, serivce was without fault, and the atmosphere was nice and cosy, not too quiet, not too loud.. If you don't mind paying a bit extra for excellent food this place is definately worth a visit.

Easily one of the best restaurants I have been to. Was empty when we arrived but it filled up quickly. For my starter I had a warm crab salad in a chilli and ginger sauce. Then I had the lobster which was amazing. Well worth the €36 price tag. Staff were excellent. Would love to go back next time im near Kenmare.

Was looking forward to eating in this well known Kenmare restaurant for months. Has been booked out on previous visits to Kenmare as it is very popular particularly during the peak summer months. Food definitely impressed and service was very attentive as well. Main courses very much seafood focused due to the location. Great selection including a number of specials on the night, Monkfish, Seabass, Turbot, Cod, etc. We went for the Monkfish with a Ginger and Garlic crust and dip and the Turbot Special. Sides include Salad / Fries / Colcannon and a nice selection of roast baby veg. Desserts were very good as well we opted for the praline ice cream with chocolate sauce. Was a very impressive meal in a very nice restaurant and would recommend. Only gripes are as follows; prices are way too expensive 28 to 34 Euros for a main course is too much. We had a table from 6.30 to 8.30pm which they needed back which is fair enough, but no allowance for early diners through an early bird or cheaper menu. Finally it doesnt look like they have passed on the recent vat reductions again. If they could get their prices more reasonable would be perfect!
