    Speaking of kebabs... went to 'Zaytoon' the other night in Temple bar I think it was, my god, the best kebab I've ever had!

    What part of Waterford is that?

    Often thought that myself, and also similar experience and thoughts after a visit to their cafe on the Cork Road. Won’t be back to either in a hurry!

    There used to be someone on here who would sing the praises of that place and wouldn't hear a bad word against. I'm sure they'll be along shortly to tell you all the types of wrong you are. I could take it or leave it myself. Definitely nothing special

    Burrza, overpriced burgers and people jam packed on top of each other. They really need to invest in air conditioning in that place.

    Slice out on the Dunmore Road is the best in Waterford, and trust me I’ve tried them all :D

    Antichi and Burzza very nice too, Gino’s a bit overrated I find

    Slice was good when we ate in there but the pizza didn't translate very well for a take away.

    €13 for a pizza is hardly expensive

    We agree to disagree. You got a takeaway pizza. I got a cheeseburger which taking the glorified hipster sounding cool name of it away is basically what it is, served in brioche bun from aldi and a measley small chip portion served in a steel tower like contraption yoke.Table of people on top on ya to your left and right. Can barely move your elbows to eat. No air conditioning either in a room rammed full of people, so uncomfortable.

    I hate them portion control chip servers especially when they get condensation on the inside.

    +1 on the closeness of the tables in there. I love the restaurant don't get me wrong but I was sandwiched between 2 other tables in their before and it is a bit too close for comfort.

    Yeah i get what you're saying it does look very cramped in there,but i think all their food is sourced locally and the buns are made by Walsh's Bakehouse not Aldi,i agree i hate them things most places put chips on these days its rare enough to get chips on a plate anymore.

    Ah now. You must be a fussy eater to describe ‘just’ a cheeseburger. I’ve had many burgers in burzza and every single time almost roll out of there with all the food. And I’m not skinny! Burgers a foot high. Do agree with the space tho, but hey, it’s busy almost every night of the week. They average €14 for a burger - worth every fxcking cent in my eyes. They got it right if you ask me! Burgers and beer in a casual environment, wish there was more burzzas around

    Really enjoyed the onion rings (was hoping to get jalapeno peppers but not on the menu) and the meat pizza from Burzza. A lot of different from the general takeaway places that siad the price is a turn of compared to them and a dine out from Burzza would not be a regular cause of that

    Exactly my point , 14e average for just a burger and a tiny portion of chips. Its not really a casual environment if you cant feel comfortable enjoying the food.

    Whatever about the quality of the burger, that's a personal preference thing (I know people who love them and hate them!) so I won't argue but I know for a fact the chips are not frozen.

    Where do you like to eat as a matter of interest? I find Waterford has a lot of middling establishments with one or two standouts personally.

    I would agree with you here completely.

    I used to love the Royal Garden out by Aldi when they did sushi but that's gone off the menu. It was definitely my favourite place to eat in Waterford prior to this.

    Kyoto, does some smashing Asian food but their sushi isn't up to the standard Royal Garden was

    I have found McLearys, Bodega, La Boheme very hit and miss over the years.

    If I wanted a special occasion meal I'd always look outside of Waterford. Kilkenny has Zuni, Campagne & Mount Juliet - I don't think there's anything of this standard in Waterford at the moment unfortunately.
