Oh my goodness... what a food.
Chicken Burger was just amamzing 😍 🔥.
Wings were truly delicious l. I ordered hot sauce wings. My wife went with soup of the day , mushroom soup. Let me tell you, haven't had such soup any where in Dublin. My friends ordered veg fajita and stir fry those were awesome and worth the bite.

We had lunch here last Friday July 3rd. From the moment we came in the door we were met with top class service. The lady that was in charge epitomised all that's great about Irish hospitality. The food was top quality I had lemon sole with mash and veg all piping hot. My wife had monkfish scampi with chips and salad, again top quality. Unfortunately we were rushing to an appointment so we had to forego desserts amongst the selection was my favourite apple crumble. I highly recommend.

The wait was a little long and to be honest I almost left. We set at the table 20 minutes before a waitress came to take our order. I am sooo glad we stayed. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Then we forgot all about the wait. The food was some of the best we have ever had. I had the roast beef and my wife had the half-chicken. They both were to die for.
