Cullinan's Seafood Restaurant and Guesthouse

Fodor's Review:

The small 25-seater restaurant, set in the back of an attractively renovated traditional farmhouse, is famed for its fresh, simply prepared seafood, but vegetarian and meat dishes are also served. Owner-chef James Cullinan uses fresh local ingredients—Inagh goat cheese, Burren smoked salmon, Doolin crabmeat, and Aran scallops—to form the basis of a light, imaginative menu. Try roasted peppered loin of Clare lamb, served in a reduced jus. Desserts are all homemade, or try a plate of farmhouse cheeses. A EUR 25 early-bird set menu is served from 6 to 6:45. The floor-to-ceiling windows on two sides of the restaurant overlook the Aille River. The eight (EUR 100 for two) cottage-style rooms have simple pine furniture, fresh cotton comforters, pleasant country views, and room TVs on request.
