This cosy first floor Killarney restaurants has elegant black furniture, polished floors, bare tables and blinds - a lot of hard surfaces all add up to a good bit of noise, but nobody seems to mind.
Barbary duck breast is their stated speciality, served, perhaps, with pineapple, orange & salsa, but this does not do the restaurant justice as menus offer many more appealing dishes - tender whiskey & Calvados braised pork belly, for example, outstanding steaks and an attractively presented hot seafood platter; this is a selection that may include prawns (probably of the tiger variety, alas) fresh salmon, monkfish, scallops, crisp fried calamari, mussels and grilled oysters, and it is served with a choice of savoury butter sauce and spicy tomato relish.
Good food, together with great service and value ensure that this cheerful place is always packed - even on weekdays, when other restaurants may not be busy, there’s lots of buzz, so reservations are strongly advised.
A la carte. House wine about €20.
