Everything was perfect! Our table was ready, private. Food was excellent as was the service. They had a guitarist, really good. He sang Pink Pony Club with an Irish accent, too funny. Reasonable value

Always enjoy myself here. Probably my favourite spot in Galway. the food is delicious, and reasonable prices for the quality and its location ( newly added to the Michelin guide). portions are small, not quite Tapa's, but smaller than a plated dinner you would get in a larger restaurant. but it quality over quantity. Restaurant itself is small and intimate, and in Galways west end. The Venison is amazing, complimented with a delicious side of spuds.

The food was amazing. In particular, the sticky toffee pudding was to die for. The best I have ever had. The sauce was perfection and pudding was soft and tender & the butterscotch ice cream was a lovely compliment. Excellent on price. Lovely waitress who managed the floor entirely by herself seamlessly. Highly recommend it.

A Gem on the Wild Atlantic Way! We had a beautiful dinner at Morrisey’s. The atmosphere is the perfect mix of cozy, traditional pub comfort and vibrant restaurant energy. The star of the show was easily Crab Claws that I got as my main course, rich, perfectly seasoned and deliciously fresh. I’d highly recommend the pork belly, which is new on the menu. It was incredibly succulent and mouth-watering-absolutely cooked to perfection. I paired it with my favourite glass of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. What really sets this place apart, though, is the service. The staff treat you like old friends the second you walk through the door. It’s a warm, welcoming, five-star experience from start to finish.
