K. C. stands for Casey, as in owner-chef John Casey, a larger-than-life character, who turned a medieval stone town house once associated with the Blake family—one of the families that founded Galway—into an ultramodern eatery. The hard-edge, minimalist interior, with sleek black walls, provides a strong contrast with the old stone building. Dishes range from traditional beef-and-Guinness stew, or sole meunière, to funky starter combinations like black pudding croquettes with pear and cranberry sauce.
