Kai cafe and restaurantPosted on 27 May 2012
A party of 14 of us dined here on a Saturday night. The setting was lovely, we had our own section upstairs which was great and the waitress gave us an Ipod to choose the songs for the evening. An excellent touch! Our waitress was very friendly and helpful, especially when it came to deciphering the menu. We were a group who are accustomed to dinning out but we all felt that the menu wording was abit much. The food was good but I felt some of the dishes needed a bit of umph. I had crab to start which was nice but I would not order it again. However I tasted the meat starter and it was delicious. For mains I had a fillet of fish and it was really good, I would definitely order it again. My boyfriend had the monkfish and both himself and I felt it was lacking something. The wine list was good and overall it was a great evening. A credit to the staff, they really are accommodating and with the right choices of dishes you could not fault the place.

Milano (Baggot Street)Posted on 27 May 2012
An excellent choice of restaurant to enjoy the sunshine and good food. Myself and my boyfriend dined here and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The waitress was very friendly and efficient. I had the chicken salad with goats cheese and it was delicious. A substantial meal, the portion was good and was very filling. My boyfriend had a thin based pizza which filled him up but still left room for a few pints after. There also was a good choice on the wine list. It was a great place to enjoy the sunshine on a Friday evening along the canal in Dublin city.

Busker BrownesPosted on 08 August 2009
Myself and a friend met here for lunch mid week and I was extremely disapointed with my meal. I hadnt eaten in Buscars in quite some time and will not be returing in the near future either. The staff were quite friendly however the food was awful. I ordered a duck wrap which sounded lovely as described on the menu, however it did not taste right. The side salad that accompanied it was lovely but the wrap was very disappointing and left a strange aftertaste in my mouth.
Furthermore, the pub was busy upon entering we checked the smaller area under the stairs but the smell was awful, we contemplated sitting there but the smell was so bad we had to move out to the main bar. I felt that that this was unacceptable considering it is a area where food is served. Overall I had an unpleasant dinning experience and will not be recommending or returning to Buscars now or in the near future.

Brannagans (Galway)Posted on 08 August 2009
A group of 8 of us ate here during race week and overall it was a very enjoyable experience. The staff were very friendly and efficient and the food was lovely. We all ate from the early bird set menu which was a steal! To start I would recommend the spice beef koftas and the chicken skewers for main. The evening menu had dishes that also looked delicious and the wine menu had a good selection of wines. We all got a desertif, enjoyed a 2 course meal with wine and it came to approx €40 pp. All in all I found this restaurant great value for money and a pleasure to dine in.

Kirby's RestaurantPosted on 08 April 2009
I would highly recommend this restaurant, for the earlybird anyways, its great value. Myself and my patner ate here one Monday evening, the service was very good and efficient. The food was also very nice, I had the springrolls to start (which were delicious) and the pasta for mains (which was also good). My partner also had the spring rolls to start and the stake for mains (which also gets the thumbs up). And to top it off the price was excellent-2course meal with complementary drink in Buskers after all for €16..We were stuffed leaving here!! Def a must..!!

Abalone - ClosedPosted on 12 December 2008
I treated my boyfriend to dinner here for his birthday and the experience was amazing. The interior is small but really warm and romantic. The service was excellent, with one waitress on she was very friendly and delivered such great service. The food was excellent and we got complimentory pre-apitizers and sorbets. We were so stuffed leaving-makes for a change when dinning out! It is definately one of the best restaurants that Ive dinned in-a must try! Make sure to book in advance as it can be hard to get a table.

Tamarind (Galway)Posted on 12 December 2008
I enjoyed my experience in Tamarind, the food was of very good quality and very tasty. I would recommend sirlion beef with bok choy and my partner had Singapore noodles which he would also recommend. The service was good and the staff were friendly. The wine list is also quite good, with a wide selection of wines. Overall, the experience was very enjoyable.
