Went out for dads dinner, and like always.. Got absolutely amazed with food and service. Top class, one of the MUST TO VISIT spots in Killarney. Loved the back garden!!

We had a lovely meal... We ordered wagyu denver steak, wagyu tri tip steak and Angus strip loin.

My husband was a chef for 10 years, we've been married for 5, and this is the first time we've been to a restaurant where I felt the dish was better than he has made it. I had the Trip Tip Steak blue with portichini sauce and the chef grilled it with Beachwood charcoal... Delicious!!!

Off the beaten path but so worth the walk from High Street downtown. Unassuming facade but a surprising elegantly decorated interior. The Lobster Bisque was delicious. Very tender Smoked Bacon and Cabbage. Beautiful vibrant paintings displayed on the walls.

Lovely meal, with the creative touch from talented chef Seamus, thanks !

Went to Malarkeys a couple of weeks ago for my partners birthday and I can highly recommend! The menu is has a great twist on good Irish food. I had the monkfish and it was the best I have ever had! The vegetables and potatoes served with it were perfectly cooked and the corn on the cob was a lovely addition on the place. Portions were generous, but the taste of everything was simply exquisite. Siobhan was absolutely brilliant and very tentative ensuring we were ok for everything. I had contacted her prior to arrival about organising birthday candles on a dessert and she was most helpful. If you looking for good, fresh Irish food, perfectly prepared, look no further. It's clear that the chef has a passion for his cooking. Thanks to all at Malarkey's and we will definitely be back.

A lovely experience, Killarney's hidden gem. The food is full of flavour, different flavours that you won't experience anywhere else in town. The service was fantastic(Katie, I think!) If you are looking for something that's not the regular fare, visit Seamus and you will not be disappointed.

Discovered Malarkey tonight. Don't regret it at all!! The food is DELICIOUS, we both had beef, different cuts and different sauces, both amazing. staff is so nice and helpful. It is now our place to go for every single trip to Killarney

It was ok. Very poor quality of tap water - we stayed here in Killarney hotel and able to drink sink water here, but in the restaurant it was really awful. It is The first restaurant in Ireland with really chlorinated tap water . So you need to order smth else to drink. Maybe our table was not the best one - near kitchen, near toilets and rear garden- a lot of people moving all times. Smells from kitchen were like smth burned and even fire alarm was turn on. Waitress said that it is happened all times. That it really weird for romantic evening. BTW food was good, scallops worth to try. Sushi is really good also

J. K.

Really enjoyed a visit here. Tasty food & nice outdoor seating area.

This restaurant exceeded my expectations in every sense. The quality of the ingredients and the preparation was fabulous. I could not ask for more. Anyone considering eating here, don’t contemplate another second and just go. The chef is inspired! FYI the rice pudding in this photo has been partially eaten by me.

I ordered the Wagu striploin and it was the best steak I've had, it was perfection. The Irish tapas were so unique and tasty. The outdoor space is shaded and perfect for outdoor dining. The staff were lovely and very accommodating to our little girl. The dessert was delious. I got the toffee apple dish and it was out of this world.

F. S.

Best steak in Ireland!!! Lovely staff and beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommended (from an Argentinean who really knows about steaks). A gem in Killarney!!!

D. B.

Excellent menu and food. Brilliant staff.

B. R.

We had the Tasting menuSeamus is the most gifted/talented chef-Visit this place for a most rewarding experience-Brilliant staff and this adds to the ambience of Malarkey-We will be back soon!

E. O.

The best thing about our staycation was finding this little gem. Definitely rates one of the best meals we’ve ever had, so much that we have booked to come down again this weekend with family. Would highly recommend the Blue Fin Tuna/Ocopus to start and the Duck or Beef Wagu for mains. Siobhán was so helpful and created such a wholesome experience, and their personal touch for our anniversary was so kind. 5 ★ to our new favourite restaurant.

Fanstastic place, friendly staff, great tasting food and adult sized portions... Monkfish has to be best choice

J. C.

The Malarkey restaurant is worth its weight in gold! The experience we had while there was incredible! The food and service were 100% 5 stars! The chef has created a range of meals that are beyond anything I have ever tasted! His curiosity to try new things with different foods and create something mouth watering and incredible! We were also told that he grows his own produce in his garden making the whole experience so much more personal. I will 100% be returning on my next trip to Killarney! It was delightful and is an absolute credit to the Kerry food scene! A must try!

E. O. B.

Fantastic food and great service! Really enjoyed it! I highly recommend going to this place! A Killarney gem!!

R. J.

We had the most incredible food in Malarkey. I highly recommend that if in Killarney make a reservation as each course was better than the previous. It was simply fantastic and the service was outstanding. We absolutely loved loved every aspect of our meal. We will back there soon.

J. O.

Great menu, really enjoyed my meal

O. N.

Any time with Seamus entails great food and a warm welcoming. The restaurant is absolutely amazing. The layout is perfect those romantic evenings or family gatherings. The tables are plenty large enough for everyone s plates and glasses. On those warm evenings take a walk out to the garden and sip on a glass of wine or chill and relax. Essentially the place is fabulous.

L. M.

The food was amazing and staff were so lovely. The outdoor dining area was one of the nicest we've been in

U.

This is loving food...the blue fin tuna was out of this world, as was every single element of the plate. It was as good as our first date in Seamus's irreverent Ivory tower 20 years ago. My son said Malarkeys was the best steak he ever had. I suppose great chefs dont take food (or customers) for granted, their instincts just keep getting better.

K. R. H.

An absolute must when in Killarney! As a group we had a great variety of tasting the menu. Hands down the King of Steaks is the Wagu Striploin, it just melts in your mouth after its had a lifetime of massages, lucky cow 😉 the desserts are so different in the best way possible. Outstanding meal and the wine was superb also. The waitress gave us great detail on the menu & the chef/owner Seamus his passion for what he does pours out into his menu. Thank you guys for a top class meal. Fab way to finish our trip on the Ring of Kerry ❤️ The Hanney Clan

Just finished eating dinner in malarkey’s. Without doubt the best restaurant in Killarney. Four of us eat different dishes and each one was as nice as the other. We would visit Killarney often and have tried all the restaurants. You won’t be disappointed with malarkey’s it’s just a class of its own. Hazel

A wonderful culinary experience in Killarney. I was there with my girlfriend while we were doing a roadtrip around the west of Ireland. Malarkey's was the perfect escape from all the regular pub food we had gotten used to. The presentation of the dishes was excellent and sophisticated. The dishes were exciting, new and delicious. Would absolutely recommend for those looking for a break from chicken goujons and chips!

L. W.

My girlfriend ordered wild mushrooms and I a steak, we were just stunned by how delicious all was. Staff are friendly people, it's a very nice place to go with family and friends and enjoy the moment.

M. G.

Wow! What an unexpected delight to find Malarkeys on a wet Sunday lunchtime! A 3 course meal for €25, and all dairy and wheat free - yes I am an awkward customer!! I had never had Bonito before - artfully arranged in a bamboo leaf - but it was absolutely delicious. My partner was equally impressed with his meal with wheat and dairy!! I would definitely recommend this restaurant. Perfect for forthcoming Christmas frivolities methinks!! And of course at any other time! Good luck Seamus!

E. H.

Had the nicest steak I have ever tasted in my life here in Malarkeys, the 10oz wagyu striploin, melts in your mouth. Amazing staff that went above and beyond and a great atmosphere. A night that won't be forgotten anytime soon. Can't recommend Malarkeys enough. Absolute 10/10 👌👌👌

A. H.

Food was delicious. Decor, music and staff all made for a very relaxing and enjoyable meal. So glad we visited whilst in Killarney. This is somewhere I’ll absolutely be recommending.

C. M.

Fantastic experience. The food was delicious and the garden is like an oasis. I felt like I was in a different country!

J. M. D.

Irish food at its best. Divine and sublime.

L. G.

The most wonderful evening on our tour of the south west was had at Malarkey. The friendly welcome and non intrusive hosting was only surpassed by the excellence of the cuisine. It was a night to remember and I shall be returning with my beloved at the earliest opportunity.

K. M.

Best steak I have had in a long time. Scallop & black pudding start was excellent. Service is great and lovely setting.

T. O.

I'm loathe to recommend this place, purely out of selfish reasons, as it will only get harder to get a table but in the pursuit of honesty this has to be one of the best places to eat in Killarney. Had a meal here on the 7th of August with family and friends. 6 of us in total and we did not want to leave. The chef is a genius with his food and the service was professional and friendly without being intrusive. My new favourite place in Killarney.

S. W.
