   Kieron the server was so charismatic. Me and my girls felt comfortable and very welcomed when we arrived for our booking to celebrate double birthday. The food was delicious.

   Our waitress was so lovely, food was a little delayed coming out so we were offered a complimentary drink and she was so polite that it ended up not bothering us at all that the food took too long. Food is always amazing and fresh.

   Everything was great, food was a little cold but besides that everything was delicious. Portions slightly small but we ate everything and it was delicious! Service was great and all staff were really friendly. Was disappointed to see the amazing wings ye used to have on the menu were gone! Will definitely come back again!

   Hi, our food was tasty but a little under temperature. Our bill was €181 so I paid €200 cash, the waitress did not return with my change. As I was with a group I did not make a fuss, I would have given this as a tip anyway but the presumption was annoying

    Went for Bottomless Brunch and while the food was good I found the service very slow including the topping up of the Prosecco!

    We ordered for 4.the table was set for 3 e should have queries it only 3 meals arrived! One of the party ordered peppermint tea, got a put of black tea with some peppermint in it! Noticed we were charged for a drink which was out of stock. Online menu was better than reality. Only one vegetarian option and no gluten free!

    Food lovely but 3 dishes we wanted to order were taken off the menu. Also 2 wines we wanted off wine menu were unavailable. Then we all wanted the pudding for dessert but that too was unavailable so disappointing overall. Staff all lovely and helpful. Music towards end of night was so loud that we went elsewhere so we could have a proper chat

    Food was extremely poor quality- croquettes were inedible. Wing portion was tiny. Have been to the Oyster for food on many occasions but yesterday will be my last unfortunately.

    Not great to be honest , very little selection on the menu I understand it was Christmas but they could have added more . The quality of the food was only ok and to top it all off it was very expensive .

    We had a lovely Christmas meal upstairs in the restaurant. The food was delicious, great portions and great value for money. The service was also very good. The only downside was the female toilets which are in need of maintenance and were very dirty. However, I would still highly recommend going here for dinner or a drink.

    Lovely evening. Very helpful young staff who moved us from a high table to a booth in request. We graduated to the bar for drinks later. Bar was busy but staff so pleasant. Great night in Cork for all the ladies!

    Lovely central spot for lunch. As it was Sunday fish dishes were not available as supplied by English market. Lovely friendly staff . However we waited long time for our food and never got the desert menu even though we asked twice. Also asked several times for our coffees ....waited over 40 minutes for them. Staff apologised and told us they were short staffed.

    When we arrived.. we were told we could only have the seat for an hour and 15mins.. we were placed on high stools and my husband injured his back last week and asked could he be given a low sitting chair.. we were told we could be moved and were moved.. but told we could only have this seat for an hour and 15mins.. there was plenty of staff there.. three times I had to ask for a glass of wine.. my food was cold waiting for the wine.. the food was absolutely amazing.. 5 star quality and I am fussy.. would I have booked if I knew I only had the table for an hour and fifteen mins no.. would I go back def because the food is top quality…

    Loud music playing for first 15 minutes when we arrived, not exactly best vibe for a Saturday morning brunch with family. Food was okay but menu itself seemed limited and not reflective of what I'd look for in a brunch. Some healthier options perhaps? More juice or a smoothie option especially.
