Very average this time out, I had the fillet steak which was cooked within an inch of it's life despite me requesting rare. Sent it back and got another which was still well done. Ordered a Budvar there to which the waiter advised that they were out but had Chieftain which is another beer from a famous Czech brewery, I could hardly contain my laughter

I never eat in Eco, I find the place revolting, but the above stood out of your review. Why on earth would they not allow this?! I know people who go in there purely for dessert after a meal elsewhere, and surely you can just get a starter if you don't want a full meal, so it can't be a minimum charge thing.

Kirby's in Ballinhassig do half portions, even for adults.

Has been about 2 years since i was there last and every time i go there i'm reminded of why its not for me. so squished, so loud, such massive portions, like off putting amounts of food... (thats just a personal preference i hate feeling like im eating out of a trough) Service is good, fast and snappy but but good, waiter who served the table was friendly and engaging, Starters we shared garlic breads they come with pesto and cheese, nothing to write home about but not not good if you get me. Mains we had: a beef madras, the Eco burger and chicken satay. sweet jesus lads the madras and satay were the biggest things ive ever seen in my life, they could half the portion and you would still be taking it home. My burger was manky. dry on the inside but the bun was greasy and meat overcooked. Chips were lovely Madras and satay were tasty but one full time giant farmer man couldnt finish his curry (not like him at all) and half the satay was left behind. The foods not bad (its not great but its not bad), the service is great, the place is loud and cramped, but it is good value for money and if your not overly fussed about quality and taste it is good. The one suggestion i would make is its great for a feed, if thats what your looking for. I do hate massive portion and this was overkill. A giant serving bowl/plate of curry then a separate bowl of rice is unnecessary. I asked to see the kids menu and the waiter did say they didnt allow adults eat off the kids menu (fair enough) but then offer half portions of the food coz its a total waste of food. Prices are good for what you get 15 euro for the curry and satay 14 for the burger. Sides are really good and deserts! amazing! try the banoffi pie!
