   Having dined at House on many occasions during the week and thorougly enjoyed it, we booked a table for 7:30 on Saturday evening. The first thing that struck us was the noise level, which was incredibly loud. Obviously this suited the young revellers who were there for the craic but as a dining experience, it was very difficult to have a conversation at the table. The service was actually very good and the waitresses were very attentive. The food was fairly good but the vegetarian tacos which I ordered was more like a starter portion. The burgers were more substantial and my friends were happy with their meals. We left as soon as we had eaten so that we could continue our evening in slightly quieter surroundings. I will be back but definitely not on a Saturday night.

   Staff are lovely, and drinks nice. We did the bottomless brunch but the food was very basic. Tasted weird and cheap. I feel they have ruined the menu by changing from the OG house menu with salted chilli chicken and the house burger. A very expensive brunch menu for basic food? Wings etc.

   Amazing place! Food was great and really good price. Servers are friendly and fantastic! Surprisingly no service charge and they didn’t ask for tips, even though they deserve it. Great music and ambiance. Will definitely come back!

   Service was slow and felt we were forgotten about. Starters were tasty, so we were excited for our mains. Unfortunately, they were not good. Vegetarian soft shell tacos were absolutely awful. Portion was small, veg had a stale and unpleasant taste and it was obvious they had been sat under a heating lamp for a long time. Food was pricey so felt it didn’t live up to expectations. Drinks were the saving grace as our cocktails were delicious. Food was a big let down. Was recommended to eat here, but I will avoid in future.

   Food was lovely , decor is nice and majority of the staff are lovely. There was an older man working there who I assume is main Manager , he was quite gruff and just pointed over to our table walked away. Also wouldn’t go if you want to actually speak to the people you’re with , as the DJ blasts the music and is speaking on the mic after every song.

   Hi Aishling, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent visit. I am pleased to read that you enjoyed your meal & the decor. I apologise that you found the server to be abrupt, this is certainly not how we like to welcome our guests. In regards to the music, you were booked in for our boozy brunch event which is always very lively with live music. I am sorry that you found this too loud. If you book the earlier slot at 11am, you will find it to be a quieter session. We do hope that you visit us again sometime soon. Kind regards, Lucia

   The food wasn’t bad but I ordered yet chicken roulade and the portion size was embarrassing. It was a half a small chicken breast! A small breast chopped in half! With a potato croquettes for £17! Such measily a portion that would not have filled a child. every poor!
