P. M.

Very good quality food. Service was excellent too. Dishes were cooked to a very high standard. Every course was very good. I think they could do some more modern dishes. Great meal overall and would definitely recommend it. We were asked to show our covid certs but they didn't scan them and we were not asked for ID. We were asked for a phone number for contact tracing.

We came here for lunch spontaneously after arriving in Sligo. Menu is great and reasonably priced, with lovely views on the outdoor seating with some rain cover. The service in particular was exceptional - very accommodating to one of our dietary restrictions made us a dish off menu! Food was lovely with a surprise soup amuse bouche . Generally could have more vegetarian options (eg more pasta options?) but was overall a very enjoyable experience! Will return!

E. J.

Went for a nice dinner with husband, 1st time after lockdown and enjoyed it so much. The food was good, staff was friendly and attentive. Restaurant looked classy, inviting. Loved it!

Eala Bhan is for sure one of the best restaurants in the north-west of Ireland. The quality of the provided food was high standard and the staff was very attentive and friendly. I can highly recommend this restaurant. It is good value for money and a wonderful place for a lunch or dinner.

S. B.

Excellent restaurant. I was looking for a good place for my husband's birthday dinner. Luckily got a last minute reservation. I additionally called the restaurant if they can arrange a brownie after dinner to celebrate his birthday and charge on my account. The ambience was beautiful and got served with complimentary bread and amazing parsnip soup. Ordered fish for main course. The restaurant served brownie and icecream complimentary with happy birthday written on the tray and also sang the song for my husband. It was a perfect dinner. Restaurant staff made the birthday dinner superb! Amazing staff and amazing chef. If you are in sligo, and not eating here, you are missing a big part of Sligo. Must must eat here. Big Thanks to the staff and 3 cheers for the chef. Overall 10 stars

C. K.

Lovely place for a meal. Make sure you try out their pulled pork or the duo fish and double cooked fat chips. Their customer service is quite good too.

S. K. (.

The food is absolutely delicious. You might think the menu is a bit pricey but trust me... It's worth every single penny... Eh... Cent?

J. j.

Best food ever!from starter to mains to the dessert..and to all the complementart food..

R.

Outstanding food.Food quality is excellent, highly recommend.Lamb very tender and moist with lovely sauce on top of it.highly recommended the desert too.

N. A.

In seven days in Ireland this had to be the top dining experience my father and I had. We talked about it for a few days in fact. It is in a convenient to get to location and the restaurant itself is beautiful inside. The service was perfect, extremely professional staff. The menu has a nice variety with reasonable prices. The food was wonderful, I ordered the Trio of Fish. What a Trio it was! The scallops, the trout, the hake, all incredibly delicious. I want to visit again someday with my wife!

P. C.

Nice afternoon tea with all usual elements, sandwiches, cakes, scones. It's all nice but nothing to be blown away by. Menu looks better than it actually is. Sandwiches were fine but cakes were a bit disappointing. I'd say the dinner menu is much nicer than the afternoon tea.

t. k.

As an outside diner...I couldn't recommend this place enough, attention to detail, amazing food, kind and considerate staff

D. N. C.

First time to visit Sligo and Eala Bhan blew us away! We got our times wrong and arrived at the restaurant an hour late. Our own faults entirely. The staff, beyond pleasant and polite, offered us a table yor 20 mins later. The food and service was second to none, every dish was a beautiful work of art. Seafood selection was divine. Beef and noodles starter was delicious. Fillet steak was the best we've had. The children's posh fish and chips was a breath of fresh air compared with other restaurants '. We loved that it was sweet potatoes with the fish! Complimentary tasters if sweet potato and butternut squash soup between courses. The staff looked after us very well checking in often and providing our two children with crayons and colouring sheets. Eala Bhan will be hard to beat on our staycation on the Sligo/ Donegal coast.

S. H.

Incredible food and service. Thanks for having us!

H. A.

Went with the wife for her birthday! Delicious. Had taste of the sea, lamb & baked alaska. All top quality. Googlemaps directions were a bit off.

H. F.

It would truly be hard to find any fault with this restaurant, 6 of us ate here last night. Everyone would agree with me on this. The atmosphere, the staff the amazing food, presentation and taste was excellent. The menu is fantastic, something for everyone. I truly wanted to try everything and of course I always get food envy looking at other dishes. Well worth a visit and the lovely owner Anthony himself popped up to the table to make sure we were all ok. Well done to all the chefs and staff behind the scenes in the busy kitchen for making our mouths water with deligh. Top class.

M.

Food was divine and service was great, would definitely recommend.

D. M.

Would it be too much to ask to put vegan options on the menu? I appreciate that there was a choice of main that was vegan and the whole meal was delicious. However, why not have the option on the menu for everyone? Just a thought..

L. N.

Excellent experience, food was amazing and the staff were outstanding 👌👏😋🙌😀well worth a visit when in silgo! We be back!🥰

L. C.

We had a lovely evening at Eala Bhan. The quality and choice of food was excellent. The staff were very friendly and accommodating when it came to diabetic requirements. Overall a great restaurant and I would highly recommend.

M. O.

We expected ... more! We went as a couple for dinner on a Thursday night. Reservation was easy, staff on the phone very friendly and flexible. The atmosphere is ok but it's a very noisy place when full. That noisy that it's hard to have a relaxed conversation. Food was ok but it wasn't at a level like the reviews and awards suggest. In my opinion the restaurant has been praised highly over the year and therefore met a level of routine w/o much creativity and eagerness for new experiments left. The risotto and trio of fish was good but we could have had this somewhere else in the same quality. The white wine (half carafe) was too warm and of lower quality. Overall it was an ok experience but we wouldn't go again.

S. B.

We stopped off for a late lunch and were relieved they could take us as we just wanted some fish! We ended up getting fish and chips which was fantastic - often with this dish it can be greasy and tasteless but not here! The service was great and the food was lovely!

D. M.

Good staff. Shared a neal with three others. We all enjoyed our dishes. Top quality food and atmosphere.

E. o. L.

A must if visiting sligo, my partner has a wheat allergy and staff were very accommodating and friendly, food was fantastic, lovely river view and decor was modern and fresh. Next time I'm back in Sligo, I will definitely be back.

E. Q.

One of the best resteraunts in the country. Visiting Sligo and Went last minute and got the early bird. Recommend the baked Alaska. You will thank me 🤤

A. C.

Interesting delicious food. I've been back to try out other dishes. Lunch menu is good value. Went back with my daughter recently and unfortunately they could not accomodate us. They were oddly flippant about it. Pity as their food is good.

L. L. C.

Perfect. This is the only word I could think of when I stepped out of this place. The food was delicious, the presentation great, lovely waitresses, nice music playing during the dinner. I would ask google to give me one more star to rate this restaurant!

E. R.

Absolutely fabulous restaurant, excellent food and excellent service. Highly recommend.

l. c.

The food and service was absolutely fantastic. We dined outside which was lovely. Really enjoyed the food.

D. K.

This was an exquisite local restaurant specializing in fine foods from local sources. Wonderful location, right along the river walk. The preparation was amazing (see photos) and it tasted exactly as good as it looked. I got the seafood trio appetizer and the rack of lamb for an entree. The creme brulee was good, but was all creme with almost no brulee.

J. R.

We (3 person) first had to wait next to the toilet with our menu. We knew nothing about the set menu and the staff only gave us the "Early Bird Menu". We saw that the early bird menu was only available between 5:00-6:20 am. Since it was already 21 o'clock we decided to order a la carte. The staff told us nothing about a cheaper option (set-menu) and so the three of us got rid of 170€ without ordering desserts for everyone. I view the set-menu one day later via the website. We got a free glass of champagne for waiting and eating and sercice was very good except for the initial difficulties mentioned above.

S. o.

Ordered a soup, my partner ordered a burger, we also had a dessert. The staff were all lovely, really enjoyable experience. They brought out an appetiser we didn't order and I actually thought that was then size of my soup, it evidently was not but it was a wonderful way of welcoming their customers. I would highly recommend this for a lunch and dinner, particularly for couples.

D. W.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant on every level. The Setting and Service are amazing, the food even better...

W. H.

Interesting spin on traditional flavours, pleasant service and very accommodating to our young child. Option to sit outside next to the river was nice though usually harder to get in good weather.

S.

We went for afternoon tea at Eala Bhan(see pictures). The food was really nice but the dessert portions were quite big and we couldn't finish it! Nice atmosphere and staff.

D. W.

Delicious food and wine, great staff and lovely atmosphere. Will be back for sure the next time I'm in Sligo.

P. F.

Who would have thought fine dining could have worked so well outdoors. Steak was amazing and Anthony and his staff are exceptional! A great way to start our honeymoon. Looking forward to visiting this gem again!

C. D.

Thanks for a delicious family dinner. Despite the rain we really enjoyed our food & the blankets Claudine give us kept us nice and warm.

Lovely food, good service & fantastic desert, just wish there had've been more of it

a. p.

Lovely restaurant. Fab food. Really enjoyed it.

G. L.

Delicious. Capped off a lovely visit to Sligo

S. K.

Great place to eat. You won't be disappointed. It's a bit pricey place. But it's a restaurant, not a kebab or a takeaway. For those money you would be able to get friendly staff, delicious meal and cosy atmosphere with a compliment for your starter)) I hope that that little cup with soup was served for all visitiors))

K. C.

We had the tasting menu and the dishes just kept on coming, each one absolutely divine and beautifully presented! The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere, and the staff are really attentive and friendly. Literally cannot wait to go back!!

M. G.

Stunning food, beautifully presented, very enjoyable atmosphere. We had Claire serving us, very intuitive, and informative, about what wines go with what ect. We had our 3'year old with us at night time and they wor all very hospitable towards us. Very happy Customers. Very worth while the experience.

L. W.

Lovely located restaurant in the centre of town by the river. Food is very tasty and prepared to the highest level. Presentation of all meals on plates is absolutely magnificent. I would definitely come back to Eala Bhan again and would be recommending this restaurant to everyone.

E. H.

This was one of the very best meals we have had ever highly recommended

We enjoyed a fabulous Father's day dinner here with our new baby. Anthony cand his staff couldn't do enough for us while we dined and the food was amazing as always - 5 stars

a.

Wonderful food, friendly staff. Loved it!

J. D.

This is a really good restaurant. You don't have to take my word for it, just look at the awards it has earned over the years. Check out the replies from various invitations sent to dignitaries like David Cameron, interesting and cheeky. Excellent service , food, wine, atmosphere and good value too. Highly recommended.

B. M.

Fantastic food with great presentation. Nice atmosphere.

R. C.

We visit Sligo every year and a trip here is always a must, Eala Bhan is our favourite restaurant. The staff are amazing and so friendly and the food is a treat for the taste buds. Looking forward to seeing you guys in October when we make a road trip ❤❤❤❤❤

Had a fab Early Bird meal today. Food is superb.

P. M.

Amazing food, lovely decor with years quotes 😍

S. d. B.

Great service. Very attentive staff. Food sounded delicious and was plated beautifully but I actually found the food itself just ok. Starter of fish was a bit bland. Steak was overcooked And dessert tasted a little undercooked. Not my favourite meal in Sligo, especially since it’s at the higher price bracket.

P. I.

Amazing food, exceptional waiters, great atmosphere!

J. R.

Lovely evening meal here. Wonderful presentation and very attentive staff.

E. M.

Excellent food and service. Great care from the staff. Congratulations to the good team there

N. R.

Very nice cuisine. Starters and main were great. But disappointed in the dessert. I had a creme brulee - which wasn't the best.

a. c.

We had a gorgeous meal in this restaurant in Mid August. There’s a great variety of choices for adults and children and the food was superb. A lovely setting along the river and great staff made our visit very memorable. Highly recommend it.

M. J.

Beautiful food and lovely outdoor experience this evening. Food is top notch and staff are so friendy. Will defo be back.

m. c.

An excellent restaurant with fantastic food and service.

C. M.

Amazing food. We had 3 courses and everyone of them was fantastic BUT I suggest white table cloths instead of a wooden table. The front of house manager completely disappeared after 9pm! Why? Trying to catch the eye of a young waitress to pay our bill was very difficult. It did cost €140 for 2 but the food was worth it. We had half a bottle of red wine and one glass of white wine.

R. T.

Lovely food .Very pleasant staff.

T. B.

Fabulous evening spent in Eala Bhan with super pleasant hosts and very tasty meal. Thank you!!

J. M.

Nice outside seating area by the river. Friendly staff and good food.

G. P.

An absolutely superb restaurant. The food was outstanding. My wife is a vegan and I informed them of this when we booked as there were not a lot of vegan options on the standard menu. When we arrived they had remembered this without any prompting and offered three vegan starters three mains and two desserts. All of which sounded delicious and my wife loved the options she chose. Overall a restaurant that lives up to its billing.

P. M.

Very good cooking to an excellent menu

W. S.

Very good food and service ,the early bird meal (before pm 6:30 ) it have very good price and food delicious. It also Have free Wi-Fi.

G. B.

T. K.

Really fantastic. What a gorgeous meal and lovely service. So nice after so long

p. h.

Great service, great food, also excellent value to be had on the early bird menu. Right in the heart of the town a must if you are visiting or local. Just an excellent restaurant.

J. W.

Excellent meal in a nice atmosphere. Only negative was the noise due to children. Was seated next to a few groups with small children. While the parents tried their best to keep their kiddos calm, they struggled. Other downside was being told our table was booked again and we had to conclude our dinner by a certain time. Otherwise we enjoyed the food and was pleased to receive complimentary amuse bouch and after dinner treats.

D. K.

Ok, it's New Year's Eve, restaurant packed, place is humming, Tasting Menu selected, party of 6 ready for a good night out. Lots could go wrong here. Result - one of the best ever meals I've had here. Or anywhere come to that! Truly excellent. Each course surpassed the next. Staff friendly & engaging. Food presented beautifully & expertly cooked. For my part everything was faultless. I would not have changed a thing. Next time I'm asked about my most memorable meal the answer will be easy - it will be Eala Bhan, 31/12/2019 - the last day if the decade! But certainly not my last visit to EB! Well done Anthony & all your staff. You're doing the hospitality industry proud in Sligo & beyond! Keep up the good work. PS: I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

P. K.

Amazing food and great staff.

M. W.

Shared a lovely meal with my partner and two friends. We went midweek during the daytime and it was very quiet. The food on the lunchtime menu was lovely. I had the chicken burger which had a crispy coating and whatever the flavouring was, it was delicious. I'd happily go again just to try the evening menu!

A. C.

We were lucky to get a table for Easter dinner. The staff were extremely professional and helpful. They put the main course on hold until we managed to put our baby to sleep. Then we enjoyed our main courses and deserts and wine. Owner was around to make sure everything went well. 5 star for the excellent service!

K. K.

One of the top five meals I have had in my lifetime! Excellent service, ambiance and a nice vibe. Anthony Gray (owner) has a lot to be proud of. Don't miss this great local spot (it's reasonably priced too!).

J. D.

Superb! 5 stars are not enough for this delectable restaurant. Their warm, welcoming and attentive staff were exceptional in their professionalism not to mention the food, my god the food!! It was exquisite 🤗 Thank you for making our evening so enjoyable we can't wait to go back!

Y. N.

Absolutely unbelievable! Food was very good, highly recommend

R. C.

Excellent food and great customer service.

C. M.

My first and only 5star. Amazing place, amazing food, amazing people. What else can I say?

T. M.

This restaurant is a gem. The food is particularly tasty. Hot food is served piping hot. The staff are friendly and helpful. All the details are done right: comfortable seats, nice decor etc. For lunch we had a generous prawn pasta, a beef and stir fry vegetable wrap with salad and chips and two Americanos, total €28. We were delighted.

s. t.

Oh my was this some amazing food! The portions are great and service by the two young ladies was exceptional! I wish I could give more than 5 stars and really hope you guys open an Eala Bhán in Dublin!

J. C. -. s. h.

Absolutely lovely food, fantastic service, beautiful location in the city. Worth calling ahead to get a reservation.

A. C.

5 stars for a five star place. Beautiful atmosphere. Very warm and welcoming staff. The owner, Anthony, made a personal call to not just ours, but to each occupied table, to make sure that everything was perfect for his patrons. Amazing food that would be hard to find anywhere else. All around a very good experience. 12/10.

J. L.

Fantastic restaurant, the staff were friendly and attentive. I could have eaten my steak with a spoon, the meat was a credit to the restaurateur, chef and farmer. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and I feel we couldn't have made a better choice for our evening meal.

J. L. F.

I really enjoyed my meal and the service was very good.

P. B.

We dined here last Friday night and it was such a perfect evening. Incredible food, superb staff and well worth the money!! The little complimentary extras just added to what was a special evening for both of us. Definitely be back again!! P and R x

F. M.

Excellent food. We did not have a booking and it was our first visit at the beginning of April for my birthday. The Manager was very accommodating and seated us in a lovely spot (thank you by the way!). The Manager and staff were all very friendly and it was a wonderful atomphere. The food was amazing from start to finish and I can't wait to go back with friends and family. This is my new favourite restaurant, I would highly recommend it to anyone. Thank you to all the team I had a lovely evening.

J. S.

We had a great dinner in this lovely restaurant. We were lucky and had sunny evening, so we could sit outside with view on the river. Food was fantastic! Rather pricey but worth the money. Dessert could not keep up with the main, though.

O. G.

Couldn't fault as a beautiful meal. And wonderful staff. Really lovely food ambience and staff.

E. M.

Just in sligo for the evening went for a stroll along the river. Restaurant looked really nice and the menu was super. Asked any chance for 2 the manager Claudine said that they were booked out 6.15pm. Claudine said there was a table but needed it for 8pm which gave us loads of time. From once we walked through the door I knew it was going to be a great choice . the staff were amazing the food was top class . I left saying I will be back. The scallops were super. 10oz fillet medium rare I never leave reviews but when you have such a great experience with no expectations and no booking. Claudine and the staff top class.

R. C.

Award worthy food and service! Superb food! Such a great find and well worth the visit.

J. S. A.

The taste, portion size and presentation of the food was amazing coupled with the nice atmosphere and the friendly and helpful staff, it was definitely a perfect evening for my Fiancée and I. We got the early bird menu which was great value for 3 courses plus the complimentary mini soup. I suggest booking in advanced though as are always fully booked on most days. We will definitely eat here again.

G. D.

Beautiful meal with very nice touches. Desserts fab. It was a full house and services was excellent. A view of the kitchen could be seen from our table n the chefs were so calm and organised despite the busy night. Great atmosphere and Good value for money. Would highly recommend it. Will be back

k. g.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere, extremely good value for money. We felt so welcome, from the minute we entered to the minute we left. The girls were very good to us, on leaving they recommended a local cocktail bar with a discount from Eala Bhan to send us away happy, which I thought was a lovely touch. We will definitely return.

e. c.

the atmosphere was very friendly and warm, the service very polite and the food was very very good. i got a sirloin steak which was cooked exactly as i asked, it was perfectly salted and so soft and juicy. i definately recommend the place

D. D.

Definitely one to try. Quite superb. Friday night dinner in EalaBhan , staff were friendly, courteous and helpful. Owner was on hand ensuring high standard. Food was beautiful, fish fresh, meat cooked to perfection. Restaurant filled up and created a nice atmosphere in the place. All in all an excellent dinner with great food. will return again, definitely.

J. H.

On our visit to Sligo three weeks ago I checked the internet and saw a number of good restaurants but this one came up on top for me. Food was just super quality presentation and very friendly staff. A memorable meal. I just wish this place was in Dublin will go back there again on my next visit to Sligo.

S. D.

A bit pricey but the food was excellent

Fantastic restaurant with best steaks ever! The staff are friendly and welcoming. If anyone is looking to have a delicious, fancy dinner or lunch then Eala Bhan is a perfect place!

m. f.

Excellent food and reasonable if you get the early bird menu. Friendly and helpful staff but I'd prefer if the same server served us from start to finish.

The black and white pudding lasagna was divine!

E. M. S. H.

Gourmet food top class service

D. B.

D. M.

Had a steak here a few months back, it kicked ass. Tabacco onions were delicious as was the red wine. Wife really enjoyed her meal too. Coming back again soon so will add a few photos next time around. Great venue to start the evening in, beautiful setting in the centre of Sligo on the banks of the river Garavogue.

R. C.

The early bird menu is brilliant value 3 courses for 24.95! Lovely restaurant! Food gorgeous and friendly staff, had no bother fitting us in even with baby and big awkward buggy.

On the 20th September, 2014 my late wife and I chose to eat here and it was one of the highlights of our trip to Ireland. We asked the owner for suggestions of what to see round Sligo and he gave us a really wonderful idea of what to see and was amazed when we returned the following night to eat there again that we had seen the lot. The food was brilliant, the atmosphere great, but above all was the superb friendly, helpful advice that made us New Zealanders feel right at home.

B. S.

Very good food, great location, nice staff, owner spoke to us for a bit, sent over some complimentary soup, nice decorations and quotes on the wall. Thanks!

p. h.

Arrived in Sligo last Friday with no plans... After 5mins of research on good places to eat "Eala Bhan" seemed like a safe bet. Arrived with no reservation looking for a table. The waitress/hostess showed us to a beautiful table. The atmosphere was very chilled and relaxed. The lighting/music was perfect. The menu was superb along with the food and the service. I love finding gems like this... IfI could I would give an A1 or 100%

L. M.

Fantastic food, service and family friendly atmosphere, highly recommended!

My wife and I dined in the Eala Bhan on Wednesday September 4th 2013. The meal, service and atmosphere were superb. We would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants value for money in lovely surroundings.

J. L.

One of the best restaurants in the North-West. Fine dining at an average restaurant price. The skill on show in some of the dishes is excellent

R. O.

Everything was great the staff service and food. Just the only thing I would say is to pay more attention to the normal customers and not just the big business bosses. We all pay for the same food 👍

E. E.

Food was very good and staff were lovely.

B. B.

Beautiful food sourced locally..cooked to perfection and excellent service. Thank you for yet another happy experience yesterday.

Food fit for the gods themselves. If never experienced anything like this every. Simple touches like the small shot size cup of soup made this experience extremely pleasurable, and memorable. I will be back..

L. H.

Super starter and main. Nice price too 🤑 Dessert was very sweet but probably just not to my taste. My partner loved his.

G. N.

Quality food and the staff couldn't do enough for us. Would highly recommend

S. D.

Very nice steak and mash, very nice atmosphere with lovely staff and is reasonably priced, Hard to be disappointed. Very limited menu for my vegetarian wife but I'm ok with that.😂

E. C.

G. C.

The food absolutely amazing and the service was excellent cpuldnt find a single fault deffiently worth another vist

N. N. S.

Had an absolutely stunning meal here for a family members milestone birthday..First impressions weren't the best due to a long wait for our supposed reserved table..and lack of organisation..However once we returned and finally got seated the staff made it their priority in catering to our every needs..The food here is beyond delicious..Presentation alone makes the mouth water..One downside was the wait between courses..But we were a party of 8 so giving them benefit of the doubt for the reasoning behind this..Thoroughly enjoyable evening..Atmosphere is warming and relaxed..The decor and interior is mesmerising..One could sit all evening reading the Yeats quotes inked on the walls and ceiling..Menu is slightly pricier than other restaurants but it is fine dining, and I suppose you pay for quality not quantity..Would highly recommend Eala Bhan if you're willing to splash out and treat yourself..or a loved one for a romantic meal or occasion..

T. N.

Easily the best meal I had during my two weeks in Ireland. If you're in Sligo, Eala Bhan is a must-do!

This place is absolutely fantastic! We were in Sligo this past week on holiday, and saw this place highly reviewed on Yelp. It was the highlight of our visit! Service? Excellent. Food? Fantastic! Parking across the street was readily available, though it was a week night. The potato soup app was really good. The truffle bacon app was simply amazing. So good. I had the sirloin, and it was very good. My wife got the lemon sole and she's still talking about it. We WILL be back to Sligo, and we most definitely WILL be back here! We loved this place!!

(Translated) We have an Early bird menu for dinner, which is a part of the menu, but in 3 courses, only until 18.20, at a lower price than if it is the open menu. Everything very good and elaborate. Very attentive and polite staff. A very nice decoration. Only downside, to be a restaurant of such a category they could have the menu in more than one language. (Original) Tomamos para cenar un Early bird menú, que es una parte de la carta, pero en 3 platos, sólo hasta las 18.20h., a un precio más reducido que si es la carta abierta. Todo muy bueno y elaborado. Personal muy atento y educado. Una decoración muy agradable. Única pega, para ser un restaurante de tanta categoría podrían tener la carta en más de un idioma.
