Top floor of the restaurant rather than the food court

Is that the one?
My wan was talking to Mrs Brannigan when they were taking over and she was on about some kind of fine dining/supper club option, havenāt been in there for an evening meal to check it out yet
What happened to that plan of the fella from the Irish version of the Apprentice who was going to build a giant restaurant in the city centre?
Thatās the downstairs. But Iām sure itās the same food as the upstairs
Anyone goin to the Texas and not getting a steak is wasting their time.
Have you walked through Portlaoise lately?
Why do you lash out like this? Your heart is full of hate. Let the love in.
Texas Steak Out
Edit - just saw Estebanās post but think he may have been serious
Jaysus, a serious conversation where the steak out is being labelled the best restaurant in Limerick, a fella who thinks that canāt be changed
There have been a fe very good eating houses in town but none survived, BrĆ»lĆ©eās was a great spot back in the day, and the place on the corner of o Connell St and Hartstonge
Iād prefer to cook my own steak and chips, I canāt do fine dining at home
Thereās nothing in Limerick City these days ā itās falling apart.
You had a clatter of very good restaurants 5/6 years ago but I wouldnt have classed them as fine dining.
The French Table, Freddyās, Cornstore, Hamptons, Azur, Pery no.1 ā¦ youād get a decent meal in any of them. Iām not sure if any of them are even still going.
It is not fine dining but I have had maybe a dozen meals in Bella Italia on Thomas Street over the last 20 years and the food and service has always been excellent. A consistently good spot
Good shout, I forgot Bella Italia ā¦ never lets you down.
Cornstore still going and itās lovely. DiVincenzoās, Coq Bull, The Buttery and Lana are all very decent in the city.
good food, good staff, good atmosphere, not pretentious
Not fine I suppose. Itās all objective though, as youād say yourself.
Texas is a great spot if you like a bit of microwaved frozen veg and mash.
Azur is definitely gone, or at least rebranded to Rossiās - not sure if itās the same crew running it but it was nowhere near as good as it was in the Azur days when I was last in there. Dunno if Freddieās is still going but it was smashing the one time I went, probably four years ago.
@Julio_Geordioās comment about big portions is key. The food could be gash but as long as its tumbling over the side of your plate it will be looked on fondly in Limerick.
Theyāre all still there except for Azur, I like the french table a lot, itās a lovely restaurant and the food is always perfectly cooked, Iād have it very high on my list of places in Limerick, not quite at the level of 1826 for the wow factor which is something that I enjoy, I want to eat food that I could never cook at home, to me thatās fine dining
Iād rather have my breakfast out of McDonaldās than anywhere else in Limerick but I know itās not the best brekkie in Limerick
Iād be of a similar thinking. Iād want to be very stuck for options on the menu before Iād order a steak out.
Proper order too
