I honestly feel there isn't enough space here to review this restaurant! Its the most unassuming establishment but wow once you walk through that door, you are met with Victor, and his energy is enough to raise the roof! Don't ever say this is just a pub because it is very unique. We visited yesterday as a tired husband and wife out for a well deserved evening while we had respite for our special needs child. When you have a child with complex needs, you dont just need a night out, you need warmth, comfort, relaxation and good food. Victor didn't know us as it was our first time, but somehow he reads the room and he gets that we all come with our own stories. Anyway enough of the softly softly, the food was delicious. Small plates, just enough to explore the expertise of the chef. Tapas style but much more than that. Superb quality. Superb service. I cant rate it highly enough. We loved the experience. Victor is a gem and I want a slice of his energy. We paid and left last night when Victor wasnt nearby but as we crossed the road, he opened the door and called across at us thanking us and saying goodbye. Thank you O Mahoneys and I have already told people about your beautiful soulful restaurant and I recommend any carer out there to just go and feel cherished. Susanne and Paul.🥰

We had a lovely meal here, the staff were friendly and attentive. The menu is small but carefully put together. We'll definitely make a return visit when we are next in Cork.
