A fabulous pre matinee show lunch. The food, service and ambience were all excellent. We tried the calamari, herring and courgette and feta salad for starters, swordfish, paccheri and pumpkin ravioli for main, all superb. We were enjoying our meal so much we allowed very little time for our desserts. The tiramisu and affogato while eaten hastily (to make it to the show) finished the meal beautifully. We hope to return soon to this wonderful restaurant.

Mad Egg has become our go to place for a bite to eat before a gig in Whelans. It never disappoints. Food is freshly cooked and any modifications catered to. Had the GOAT as usual & it certainly lives up to its name. Service is friendly and quick. See you guys in March for our next pre-gig meal.

We had dinner here on a Fri night and the food was excellent, very nicely cooked chicken juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside!The loaded fries had a generous amount of topping, great value for money. The best thing about this place is the staff. Everyone is so friendly and helpful and they never rush you or make you feel rushed. It makes for a really great dining experience when the staff has a good vibe, genuine care and kindness and a relaxed atmosphere comes with this level of service too. We were looked after by Amadeus (hope i spelled your name right!) and service was 10/10. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for great food and excellent service.

An earlier booking was cancelled. They were forced to close for two weeks to replace pipes or something. Guys you can’t give one star if the restaurant is closed. You are surely only in a position to rate it when you eat the food. Anyway I tried again when they reopened. I was a bit nervous because my daughter is vegan but I was told they would accommodate her. Wow. She got this fluffy aubergine spread that I couldn’t stop eating with lovely homemade bread which I got too with lovely plump prawns. Then she had a sort of a stroganoff which was also delicious. I had the Pollo Alla Cacciatore. Delicious. The truffle and Parmesan chips are a must. The wine menu was decent. All in all I was very glad I gave it a go and will certainly return
