The red curry with chicken and brown rice here is proper. Rich coconut flavour, decent heat, chicken actually tender. Had it a few times now and it&#39;s always the same standard. That&#39;s rare enough for a takeaway. Staff are sound too, always busy but still manage a smile. Solid spot if you&#39;re in Tralee and need that fix.

Loved the outdoor heated seating, proper spot for watching the street go by. Had the cider, went down a treat with the meal. Service was grand, no complaints there. Only thing, it got a bit busy later on, but that&#39;s on me for staying so long. Decent spot altogether.

The seared sea scallops were spot on, really fresh. My 8oz filet was cooked well too. Price felt fair for the quality you get.

Came for the dinner, live music was decent craic. Lamb shank fell off the bone, prawns were fresh enough. Place had a good buzz to it. Bit loud if you&#39;re after a quiet chat, but sure that&#39;s part of it. Solid feed overall.

Service&#39;s a bit hit or miss. First time was grand, quick and friendly. Second visit we waited ages for drinks and food even though the place was half empty.

Pizza was proper good, and the garlic mushrooms were a nice surprise. Portions are hefty for what you pay, which I always appreciate. Place was packed though, so definitely book a table before you head over. I can see why it&#39;s busy, but it&#39;s not a spot you can just rock up to on a whim.

The pork ribs were the real deal&mdash;fell right off the bone and had this smoky sweetness I wasn&#39;t expecting. Honestly could&#39;ve ordered a second plate just for myself. Service kept things moving without hovering, which I appreciated. Place was buzzing but not chaotic. Would come back just for those ribs, no question.

Stopped by for a panini and coffee&mdash;genuinely tasty. The kitchen makes everything fresh, and you can see the chef step out to the counter every so often. Portion was decent for the price, though I&#39;d say it&#39;s more of a light lunch than a filling one. Still, for what you pay, it hits the spot.

The live music really made the place&mdash;two lads got everyone going. Guinness was spot on too. Could&#39;ve done with a bit more space at the bar, but sure look, it added to the craic.

The whiskey tasting here was genuinely interesting &mdash; proper history behind it, not just a quick pour. Food menu&#39;s small but done well. Service was friendly, though we did wait a bit between courses.

Small spot in the middle of Kenmare, really handy. Menu&#39;s got plenty of interesting picks, though the dishes can be spicier than you&#39;d expect. Service was quick and friendly. Just wish the tables weren&#39;t so close together.

Club sandwich was solid, cajun chicken ciabatta hit the spot too. Hot chocolate was a nice bonus. Prices fair for what you get. Quick enough for a lunch stop.

The lamb stew was the only thing I cared about, and it was spot on. Tender meat, proper gravy, none of that watery stuff. I&rsquo;ve had a few orders messed up lately, but honestly, as long as the food&rsquo;s right, I&rsquo;m not fussed. Didn&rsquo;t get an apology for it, but that&rsquo;s not why I&rsquo;m here.

Been here a few times for takeaway mostly. Food&#39;s always fresh, no complaints. Staff are sound and service is quick enough. Decent spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something reliable.

Decent spot for breakfast in Tralee. Eggs Benedict was fine, though brown bread instead of an English muffin felt a bit off. Coffee worked, but the Americano ran bitter &mdash; could&#39;ve used a better pour.

We arrived on a busy Saturday without a booking and they still found us a table. That was a relief. The food was lovely, though the place felt a bit fancier than your usual pub.

Gluten-free options are properly labelled here, which makes such a difference. Had the apple pie again&mdash;still as good as the first time I tried it.

The beef Wellington was unreal, proper melt-in-your-mouth stuff. Great spot for catching up with friends over dinner.
