   Nice food but mediocre portions. Main courses not available at 14:00 for lunch? Items meant to be included, not offered! (Mince Pie with coffee course). The table service was poor. Dishes from the previous course still on the table when the next course arrived. In my opinion, not worth the €25 charge for an average lunch menu.

   The service was not great, we were waiting 1.5 hours for our main course to arrive and with two kids with us this is not really ideal. Also we had to ask for the bill more than twice.

   Booked for family night to celebrate a big birthday. Booked seaview room, didn’t get one! Reception was very helpful. Waiting staff were very understaffed so the wait for food or drink was long!! 30 mins for a drinks order!! Sides were forgotten. Bill requested and never arrived. Overhead staff give out that we’d “walked without paying” despite us telling 4 different staff members we were dinner bed breakfast so food was included. Despite me checking with 2 more waiting staff that we’d been given the right menu for our package, we had the wrong menu which led to the lady huffing and puffing at me about it. Staff were mostly very young and inexperienced which was very obvious

   Food came out very quickly, no complaint there. However, our empty plates were not collected and after approximately half an hour of waiting for them to be collected, we decided to leave. We were prepared to have a few more drinks, and a dessert each but as no one seemed overly interested in clearing the table and asking if we were ok, we got up and paid our bill. Shame, as you could have got more money from us if you had asked. Will not rush back…

   Location speaks for itself. Shoreline has improved a lot, however food is a bit overpriced for what's on offer. Food sounds much better on the menu than it is in reality. Bit disappointing, the food used to be much better. Still would recommend the Shoreline for it's location, friendly service and ambience.

   Terrible service was left waiting to be seated and then once seated no one took our order so we left after 30 minutes. Complained to the hotel manager but I doubt it will have any effect. Last time we ever go here thats for sure.

   When we arrived, and although I had booked via the Open Table App, our booking was not in the Shoreline system. By all accounts, this happens quite often. Fortunately, we were found a table quickly but we would have been disappointed if if we could not have been accommodated.

    Great location & great food but service wayyyy too slow, serving our next dishes when the starter plates were still on the table, more than 1 hour to get our starters....it looks like they were short staffed.

    Food tasty. Good portions. Could have had more vegetarian options other than Greek salad. Service very friendly and efficient. Toilets lovely and clean. Only downside was no parasol so we were very exposed.

    The tables were filthy, with old food left on them. We asked staff to wipe down our table and this was not done. The whole area was dirty, and crawling with ants. We both had chicken curry. The food was bad, acidic, and tasted like something out of a jar from the supermarket. The portions were also small, with hardly any chicken and veg. So it was basically sauce and rice with naan bread. We queued up at a window to pay for the food in advance, which was then delivered to the table. All of that unpleasant dining experience then cost us €39 euro for two chicken curries and two glasses of water.

    Lovely venue - nice dining experience but it was a bit annoying having to get in a que for the window service to get a second drink after having received our food . Even to get a tartare sauce we were told we had to que again to order this which was a bit unreasonable. The que was quite long so our meal would have gone cold by the time we got the tartare sauce . Other restaurants do table service so I think this service should be at the Shoreline Hotel also. Staff very nice and friendly - but on busy days the window service doesn’t work.

    We were sat in the shade despite the sun shining, drinks left to go warm before being served to us, requested a starter as a main and was told this wasn’t possible. Young female staff are lovely. But over all it was overpriced for what we received and we went home and had to make more food.

    Outdoor dining overlooking the sea in Donabate, a beautiful location on a very sunny day. Food was good value and very tasty but we were disappointed to be served take-away style (food was served in disposable containers with disposable cutlery) since we had booked a table. Also only two tables had umbrellas overhead on the hottest day of the year. Staff very friendly and helpful but the use of delph & cutlery would be preferable.

    I have eaten in the restaurent several times and twice outdoors. The food inside was excellent. Unfortunatley I cannot say the same for the outside. The menu is quite limited and on both occasions I ordered fish goujons and chips. The food wasn't very warm when it arrived. The chips were slightly soggy and the fish quite dry. The batter on the outside was overcooked which made it very hard to eat. it was pretty disappointing. On the plus side the staff were lovely and friendly and service was very good.

    Service poor. Ordered meals and drinks for 4 people. Food was tasty but accompaniments did not arrive. Also no condiments made available or offered. Ordered a beer which did not arrive with the rest of the drinks. When it eventually did arrive it was not what was ordered. After eating our meal the correct beer had still not arrived so had to go to the bar (which had signs all over showing restricted area) to collect it.

    Booked table for 4pm. Told they wouldn’t take food orders for 15 minutes due to wedding being there. 15 minutes later they said another 15 minutes. Didn’t take food order until 5:30. Food arrived 30 minutes after that. One meal was missing. Highlighted this to server who said it would be out in a few minutes. Another half hour passed and still no food arrived. We had two small babies with us so it made life very awkward. We had to leave and bring our food home rather than eat at the table we booked because it arrived so late. One person left without getting their meal. Food was basic. Drinks in plastic cups and food in take away boxes. Would have expected drinks at a booked table to be in glasses from the bar.

    Afternoon Tea, we arrived at 2.30 offered tea/coffee as there was a delay due to a wedding taking place. Advised at 3.45 there would be delay of further 7 minutes. Spoke to a manager and he agreed to a reduction in price for afternoon tea. Eventually at 4.20 we decided to have it as a takeaway and brought it home.

    Was looking forward to our first time eating out after lockdown . Hadn’t realised when booking it was still a takeaway service ie everything still served in cardboard boxes, I would have gone elsewhere if I had known before. That being said I try and understand current situation and saving on staff costs even though other places are serving on crockery as normal. Chicken wrap was very poorly filled , wings were so drenched in sauce it was almost inedible. Kids fish gougons were very nice and much better value than the adults. Didn’t get a drink because didn’t want a plastic cup , was looking forward to a g &t on the terrace. The view is spectacular , the staff were helpful at the serving hatch.
