When I first saw that an Irish restaurant was opening in Hong Kong, I was so excited to try it out before it became too popular.Located at Kennedy Town, the decor was simple yet trendy with floor length glass windows. Although I went at night, I can imagine how nice it would be in the day to have gentle rays of light seeping in whilst having brunch. The interior design definitely caught my eye.

Located at Kennedy Town, the decor was simple yet trendy with floor length glass windows. Although I went at night, I can imagine how nice it would be in the day to have gentle rays of light seeping in whilst having brunch. The interior design definitely caught my eye. With a wooden ceiling, sleek sofas and ceiling fans, you feel as though you're walking into a traditional Irish house (of course, the upper class ones).
However, the food was a very big disappointment. Reading some reviews before visiting, I decided to order their signature dishes: the quinoa salad, the blue swimmer crab cake, the grilled sea bass, the Triple Double Realman’s Burger, and the duck leg. None of the dishes met my expectations. The quinoa was undercooked giving it an unappetizing crunch. The duck leg was by far the biggest disappointment. You know a dish is a failure when you occasionally bite into a mouthful of salt. The remaining dishes were neither here or there.
Giving it one last shot, I ordered the apple crumble. It was an absolute catastrophe. The crumbles were literally crumbles of flour. You would be surprised they actually decided to serve this.
Based on the decor you would have high expectations. Sadly, our expectations were probably set too high.
Considering it is a newly opened restaurant, I would give it a benefit of the doubt.
