Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We’re new to the area so this was our first visit. Gorgeous food which was tasty and plentiful, but the service left a lot to desire with waitresses appearing that they just didn’t want to be there. We weren’t at any point asked if our...food was ok or if we wanted any additional drinks (which were also served without ice). Even when members of our party asked for extra drinks the waitresses didn’t check to see if anyone else wanted more - we could have ordered at least another €20 worth if they had!! Probably wouldn’t visit again to eat in, but a takeaway could be an option - we’ll see.More

Lovely family Sunday lunch 6 of us went food and service good . The young girl I think was training was friendly and polite. Food home cooked could only manage 2 courses. We got our traditional Sunday lunch kids burgers and hotdogs.

We are regular visitors to this restaurant whenever we holiday in the area. We have had breakfasts, lunches & dinners throughout our holidays there over the years & it has always been great; the teens love it, so it keeps us all happy. However, our...experience last night was very disappointing. The 4 of us & 2 others at a separate table were the only people dining, so it should have been the usual fantastic service. It was not. My steak arrived cold, no steak knives were offered & the waitress never once checked in on us. We were not offered dessert & I'm sorry that I troubled her & took her away from her phone to ask for drinks & again for the bill. It's the first time I've never left a tip in a restaurant. I want to highlight this as being very unusual & unfortunate. Our dining experiences there have always been fantastic & made even more so by the friendliness & attentiveness of the lovely staff. Apart from the cold steak, everyone else enjoyed their food, as usual. It just saddened me that it ruined a special occasion for my daughter.More

The quality of food was amazing especially when the cost was so reasonable. I had a Sunday lunch, my husband had the lamb shank and he said it was out of this world - cooked to perfection.
