A glamorous, high-society seafood institution known for celebrity spotting, luxurious shellfish towers, and bustling, opulent dining rooms.
Ordering Strategy
Stick to the classic seafood platters and grilled market fish; meat dishes and desserts can be inconsistent compared to the shellfish.
What to order
Grilled Turbot
Praised by critics for being "precisely cooked with very good flavour," it serves as a benchmark for the kitchen's seafood execution.
Fish of the Day (for two)
A substantial shared option served on the bone (often Turbot) and accompanied by filling sides like "buttered new potatoes, a selection of greens and mayonnaise."
Dublin Bay Prawns
Regarded as "excellent" quality shellfish that can be served out of their shells and paired with a "top-tier mayonnaise."
Kimchi Brussels sprouts
An "unusual idea that worked nicely," this side dish features carefully cooked sprouts that "handle the gentle spice of the kimchi" and sesame effectively.
