Booking was very professional and they contacted me a couple of days before to see if the booking was still on. We were welcomed and shown to our table. Explained the specials and soup of the day. Everything was executed to a tee and went very well. No rushing and no long waiting. Timing perfect. Would definitely eat there again, if and when in Waterford.

The food was great, overall experience good too, young chap who served us was great too. Atmosphere and design of the restaurant, beautiful. Only at greeting a blond girl, does not understand the meaning of customer service. Had a table booked for 4 people at 4 pm. Arrived at 2 pm and rang and sent an email on open table that day to extend party to 6 people. Place was empty so shouldn't be an issue. However she had to make a deal out of it, treating customers badly questioning if rang and sent email, when there wasn't an issue with getting a table anyway. Maybe train her on more customer service in the end they who make her have a job. That's the only reason why not 5 stars.
