    So finally tried The Strasburg Goose and its nice but no where near as nice as Market Lane . Had fish cake for starter which was lovely but the main couse not brilliant. The potatos are way nicer in market lane and the house wine far superior.The chocolate dessert was too rich and gooey and i am a chocolate lover . I wont be rushing back but will try again sometime

    In fairness Market Lane is savage but it is more expensive than the Strasburg Goose, only in the SG once but it was great. Booking in advance is a pain though.

    I find SG very good. Great value on there 3 courses for €20. The service there is excellent too.

    Went there once ages ago and I wasn't impressed. Nobody spilled soup on me or anything but thought the dishes were unexciting and a little overpriced.

    I have been in the SG a few times.
    Recently it hasn't been up to scratch.

    I did however have one of the best steaks with savage mushrooms there about 2 years ago....

    totally agree with you OP. At €20 for 3 courses, its is great value but is definitely not the best restaurant in cork as many people harp on about.

    In fairness not many folk would consider it the best restaurant in cork, however the set price is a great option these days.

    Bit unfair to be comparing the Strasbourg Goose to Market Lane though, totally different price range.

    As stated above, Strasbourg goose is 20euros regardless what you pick, for a full 3 course meal. Market lane is pretty much a minimum of 50% more expensive. Thats the difference between a place you could afford to go on an almost weekly basis versus an occasional/rare treat, which is probably how its best to look at them I think.
