The waiters took us to a table that was dirty, also they are nowhere to be found when you need help., i don’t know, maybe it’s because we are black people, thus the service was very poor, overall, the food is great, the atmosphere is also great!

Service had been less than optimal in the past. But last night they were very busy but everything was brought on time by efficient, pleasant servers.

While I love the Salthill hotel I wouldn't recommend the bar for food. Absolutely for drinks however. The food was okay, nothing to get excited about and we had to ask a few times for a cooler for the bottle of wine we had ordered.

Food was excellent, staff very pleasant and service was excellent. Good variety of choices on menu. Lively atmosphere in the bar but not overly noisy. We were hotel residents and ate here a few nights during our stay. Could not fault it at all.

Disappointed. I have eaten here on a few occasions and was very happy with everything. Unfortunately, my last dining experience was not so good(Sunday 16th June). Party of 5- The food was poor, 3 main courses of seabass which was overcooked and shrivelled in appearance(27 euro each). Desserts lacked taste (lemon tart and creme brulee). The macaron with the brulee was still frozen and when I brought it to the attention of the waitress, she paid little heed. I told her a second time and she said ok, I'll tell the chef. Heard nothing back. The creme bruIee was very watery and ran off my spoon. We were most disappointed. I don't know if I will be in a hurry to return again soon.

Food was fine. Service was not so good. Waiter forgot two of our orders. Waiter rarely checked on the table and I had to ask the manager for the bill after waiting 15 minutes. Took over an hour to get our food. I would recommend going anywhere else but here for a nice meal. You can get better meals and service in town for what we paid.

We weren’t able to dine with this reservation. The kitchen apparently closes before 2100, but reservations are able to be made long past that. The food is great - we went another day - but the correct times need to be on this platform.
