    Excellent meal as always at the Clermont. Pretty good value as well with the Tues-Thurs two person filet & wine special. Our server was not around much, but we were able to get others to help us out when we needed beverage refills, take-away containers & getting our bottle of wine to take with us following our meal. Clermont is a lovely casual fine dining restaurant and we always enjoy our meals there. Just expect that the service, even on a not too busy Thursday evening, may not always be super attentive. We'll be back again soon to one of our favorite places to dine in the greater Dundalk area.

    This was our first time dining at The Clermont. It had come highly recommended and I can see why. Iwe wish we had known about it sooner. It's a stunning place, with excellent food, great menu choices and staff are top class. Special mention to Luke in the bar who was great craic, to Ronan the general manager who has a wealth of knowledge. We can't wait to go back. 10/10

    We had requested a high chair when making the booking but had to wait nearly 10 minutes for one when we arrived. The gravy baby bowl was far too salty. The roast beef was tasty but a little dry, sides were delicious. Margaritas were 10 out of 10. A lovely atmosphere and we didn’t feel rushed etc.

    Visited here many time! Food is amazing! Staff are great! My son is autistic and can get loud so we always choose to sit in the terrace and we always have plenty of space for him! Will be back!

    Note the veggie meal was very stuggy and the desert very sweet. Thought that it was overpriced for what we got to be honest.
