Mulcahy's Restaurant

Mulcahy's Restaurant Review

Should you be struck by a yen for sushi in deepest Kerry, you can satisfy it here. Owner-chef Bruce Mulcahy studied sushi making in Japan, and learned about fusion food in Thailand. He is recognized as one of Ireland's most talented chefs, and his presence in Kenmare has helped to establish it as one of Ireland's leading foodie destinations. Try a parcel of braised Kerry lamb shank with parsnip puree, or choose from the house specialties, the sushi and sashimi. The light-filled room, on the main street, previously a pub, has stylish contemporary place settings, with black or cream leather seats at small wooden tables, and a selection of homemade breads on a bamboo tray.

    Mulcahy's was our best dinner in all of Ireland.

    Starters:
    Butternut squash soup
    Goat cheese salad
    Both were superbly presented and of the finest quality

    Main Course:
    Sirloin steak---one of the most delicious steaks we have had anywhere in the world. Served with bernaise sauce for one and a garlic butter for the other, we were highly surprised at the flavor and tenderness.

    Excellent wine choices from many different countries.

    Service, presentation, quality, and value all came together perfectly.
