Over the last two days we've had lunch and dinner here. Each time the service was professional but very friendly, a great choice on the menu, fantastic food and superb atmosphere. You can't come to Kinsale without eating in Fishy Fishy! more

After hearing a great deal about this restaurant we made a point of trying it when we were in Kinsale. All food is expensive for an American traveling in Ireland, but this seemed particularly so at Fishy Fish. Our meals were lackluster and not worth the high price tag. This is a seafood restaurant located right on the harbor, ocean... more

My husband and I met our daughter, who is a chef in London, in Dublin, Ireland and then traveled across the country to Gallway and then around the southern rim of the country. It was a beautiful trip. The countryside is breathtaking! We liked to stop in the little towns along the coast, and when we came to Kinsale, we... more

The sauce with the mussels was excellent. The complimentary buttery bread and hummus was delicious. We ate here for lunch (outside) and then came back for dinner (inside). The waitress at dinner had no personality and never came back to the table. I think lunch outside on the patio is a better experience. more

We had the most wonderful dinner in Fishy Fishy! The fish was fresh, cooked just enough and done in simple but clever combinations. Local oysters were fabulous. John Dory Caesar Salad was ingenious and perfect. Smoked Salmon was juicy unctous and no fuss. We also spotted lovely seafood platters. If we hadn't had other commitments we would have been back... more

I was afraid, because of all the hype I had read about, that Fishy Fishy Café would be one of those places that has given up because of its good reputation; I was wrong. A note: there is no “Fishy Fishy Restaurant”; it is called Fishy Fishy Café (the owners have a Fishy Fishy Shop in town that serves some... more

After a three week tour of Ireland during which we found the cuisine routinely very good, Fishy Fishy stood out for both the quality of its seafood and the reasonable prices. Kinsale is rightly known for its cuisine and Fishy Fishy was easily the best of a number of highly recommended places. This place is all about fresh local seafood... more

The best meal we had all holiday. Beware - it is so popular you have to queue and you can't always book, but it's well worth the wait. They have a smaller Fishy Fishy up at the back end of town which is a delicatessen, this is also well worth a visit and you can eat outside there as well.... more

I don't normally choose seafood restaurants, but as this one seems to be so highly recommended we thought we would give it a try. We were not disappointed. We hadn't made reservations, and were asked to wait in the bar for a table to become available, we hadn't finished our drinks before we were taken in to the restaurant. The... more
