Our first dinner in Galway and we got 🍀! Was able to snagged a table for two outside, so happy. We had the monkfish, scallops entrees and it was perfectly cooked. The monkfish had a curry sauce that was bright And light. Service was excellent.

By far my favorite restaurant in the whole world. I have had the pleasure to dine and luncheon here multiple times; it is always a true delight and my personal highlight whenever I visit Galway. The cuisine is creative, seasonal, and outstanding, and the cakes are pure heaven.
David and Jess Murphy are doing exceptional work, and I am already looking forward with excitement to my next visit.
