I thought the same people had the lot re limeleaf, bought out of franchise due to expense of it.

What's L'Atmosphere like to eat in? Heard good reports.

And there's 3 Indian restaurants on the Quay. What about a Mexican? Never been a Mexican in Waterford, though I think Goose's were along those lines.

I went to go to Limeleaf just after it closed (didn't know at the time) and there was a sign on the door saying 'Opening soon under new management'
The same people may own the building though? Yeah, i think they bought out of the Lemongrass franchise? Not sure on that one.

Ant chance of listing what was available for each option?

It's a pretty big selection I think. Four or five choices on each so might be tough to recall. I think Option A is pasta dishes and Option B is meat and fish dishes.

Last time I was there I got spicy chicken wings and a ribeye steak. Both were lovely.

Flash tried to get The Old Stand and open it as a Mexican, but it never really worked out. That guy deserves tons of respect for what he has been trying to do in this town.

I love Revolution, A mexican would do great here, totally different. Even try a few Mexican dishes in Revolution.

Had food in the Cove last night. Got the buffalo burger. Delicious! Best burger I've had in ages! Staff were really nice too.

Whats the best place for an Indian meal? None of my friends like Indian so I've never been to any here but going for a date Saturday night.

Goa on the Quay is by far the best imo

I agree. Very nice place. Lovely food! Great spot for a date. Nice and intimate.

Did they sort out that thing about when getting a take away. I found it took away from the atmosphere to have people walking out with a bag of curry

I hope they got in a side door or something for the takeaways, as the food was lovely there, and its nice to watch people walk along the quay.

I'll agree with that too. It's best Indian in town by a long shot. Eastenders used to be my favourite but their standards have dropped considerably in the past year or so. Only downside to Cafe Goa is when you are in there on a busy night you can feel a bit rushed by the staff probably due to the size of the place, they obviously want to get as many covers as possible.

Some job getting a side door in there! Isn't it in the middle of the Tourist Office and Dooleys or am I mistaken? I agree with your point though, it's like a packed sitting room when there ae people waiting for takeaways.

I can't remember. But maybe they could use some sort of kitchen back door for the takeaways, or maybe do away with takeaways altogether, and be a slightly more upmarket indian.

I heard Goa are extending upstairs so maybe that will allow more room for a take away downstairs and then they can also move the tables away from that draughty door, and create a bit more space, but for great food I would put up with a bit of discomfort.

I went there with a work night out recently. €35 quid for a 3 course meal, and 5 drinks!!:eek:
Best value meal I've had in years! The food itself was fantastic. Not a single complaint. Massive portions too! Proper Irish food,all locally sourced. Highly recommended.

I think you're right, cannot think of the name of it but it was down amongst the holiday homes in Pebble beach and was upstairs iirc. I think it changed cuisine a couple of times.

For anyone wanting somewhere to eat outside the city I can recommend The Copper Hen above Mother McHugh's in Fenor, went there with friends last night and it was very good and reasonably priced and very good service. We'll definitely be going back there again. I had steak and it was melt in the mouth.

I think The Alamo was the name of that Mexican restaurant in Tramore.

Im on holidays in the area and was wondering if you could recommend a good spot for a carvery dinner this afternoon in the Waterford City/Tramore area?

Thanks in advance!

abouttobebanned

Revolution do a nice carvery. I'm not a huge carvery fan so I can't recommend many more after that

leduke

the showboat in the glen does a good carvery.
