We were there last Sunday for a family birthday lunch and unfortunately, it was a most disappointing experience. We have been there many times before and we've always enjoyed the food and ambience, but this time it was really only average. When you're paying these prices, €330 for 5 people with just 4 glasses of wine, it should be special and it certainly wasn't. The food we had was really only ok, I had the fish cakes and beef, my wife the salad and lamb shank. The fish cakes were nondescript and the beef fine, whilst the salad had no dressing and was flavourless, the lamb again just average. Her dessert, Paris brest was grand but really nothing to rave about. The staff I'd have to say were very attentive as ever, even adding a birthday message on one of the desserts as requested, so no complaints there, but what came out to us from the kitchen wasn't up to scratch. So as we drove back to Dublin, we all agreed that it was a shame it wasn't nearly as good as we had expected and hoped. Its a long way to drive when the outcome isnt good enough.
