Had one of the most delicious meals I’ve had in a very long time. The staff could not have been more friendly and the service was impeccable. I ordered the scampi to start. Would travel from afar for it alone. Sensational. The lamb madras for main was so tender, such tasty bites. A terrific wine list and a dessert menu where I wanted to order the lot! In the current economic climate, it’s a rarity to get to get such value for money. The whole experience was wonderful from start to finish. Will definitely be back on my next visit to Cork!

The manager (a red haired woman) was very rude! She believed we didn’t understand English, she was impolite and hasty. Very bad customer experience! The food was good and the turkish waiter who served us was friendly and professional.

Celebrated birthday lunch with my sister's here & it couldn't have been better. Beautiful place. Food was INCREDIBLE. And the service was absolutely impeccable. I cannot rate or recommend this place any higher. Thank you so much for a wonderful afternoon

Superb dining experience from start to finish. The restaurant itself is quite understated, but very elegant. Staff were all welcoming, friendly and attentive - without being overbearing. But the food was the real star of the show; I had the Vegetable Curry - which was excellent. My son and daughter-in-law thoroughly enjoyed their choices too. The soda bread (which I believe they make themselves) was by far the best we’ve had during our entire trip to Ireland. And trust me when I say that we ate a lot of soda bread! Highly recommended, and I’d advise you book in advance, as this place is always busy!

We'd only just arrived in Cork when we decided to have dinner here; however we hand't made a reservation so we were prepared to go elsewhere if necessary. The woman who greeted us said she'd check if we could have a table, as they had several reservations and they were preparing for a massive group of teachers to arrive (celebrating the end of the school year). She walked around the entire restaurant with her seating chart, counting and calculating. We were thrilled she was able to seat us, and even with such a huge group coming, our service wasn't affected in the least. We felt very taken care of and our meal was delicious. Once those teachers did arrive, though, the decibel level rose incredibly. With brick walls, high ceilings and open areas, there's nothing to really absorb the sound. So when it's packed with an enthusiastic very large group, it can get loud. But overall I'd say it was a very pleasant dining experience, we truly appreciated getting seated without a reservation, and our meal was great. I'd go again in a heartbeat.

Lovely food and great service

A flawless experience! The ambience and the waiter was amazing. I ordered the Lamb Madras Curry - a must try if I’m completely honest. Also, ended it with a tiramisu as dessert. Overall, the value for the experience we had was great.

Popped in one evening whilst working away, had a wonderful homemade fishcake to start and a rather nice lamb madras although not spicy enough for me it was very tasty.

Beautifully decorated resurant. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The service is very quick! The food was amazing. Perfectly cook steak and perfectly cooked chicken. Cannot go wrong and by booking a meal with with friends and loved ones here!

Very tasty food and warm welcome by the staff. Cosy atmosphere during Xmas Season 🎄🥂💫

Absolutely delicious! Very friendly & accommodating staff for our table of 8. Ordered the fish & potato cakes, and my husband ordered the duck confit. 2 of the best meals we have ever eaten! Our group was all very impressed with the food and atmosphere. Made our stop in Cork worth it.

(Translated by Google) I love your kitchen, every time I go to cork like there (Original) Me encanta su cocina, cada vez q voy a cork como alli

Went here yesterday for a large work lunch (10 pax). The food and service was excellent, plenty of choice for everyone and such good quality ingredients. The seating at atmosphere is really comfortable. I would highly recommend for either personal or professional gatherings

Good food and excellent service.

Great service e, food and wine list. Very good quality environment.

Great food and lovely ambience - nothing whatsoever to dislike!!

Good food

Great food

Amazing food and superb staff 👌👍

My family of 6 had a wonderful meal in Isaacs for my son's University graduation. The food was absolutely wonderful with loads of choice and good value. We all had different starters and mains, and each dish was as good as the next. The deserts were also excellent. The wait staff were very attentive and extremely pleasant. Overall we had a lovely lunch time. Well done, we will definitely be back.

(Translated by Google) Lovely welcome, hearty and quality food. The fish cake is very good. Not enough choice of draft beers. Good Q / P but room a little big so noisy (Original) Accueil charmant, plats copieux et de qualité. Le fish cake est très bon. Pas assez de choix de bières en pression. Bon rapport Q/P mais salle un peu grande donc bruyante

I've visited a number of times for lunch and dinner and it never disappoints. Always a great atmosphere here as well! Would highly recommend the crispy fried brie and the duck.

Went for dinner here . The staff were so friendly! The food was soooo delicious. I had the wings, highly recommend and monk fish special. Absolutely delicious would definitely recommend this place

The place is lovely , right in the middle of city center with man made waterfall. The biggest asset this place is his staff. To be more precise Ethan (hopefully i spelt the name right) is one of the best servers I've met ever. He was the most welcoming , most attending and much more. Dont want to waffle too much but this man deserves a good pay and is a true asset to this place. Well done. Will return !

Nicely surprised by this restaurant. Went there for lunch and got "lucky" to get a table whereas we did not book. Waiters were gentle polites and efficients The lunch menu was proposing several options and finally it was good on the dish I choose. I would come back to that place

Lovely staff, delicious food, well selected drinks, and fine atmosphere. Deserves the raving reviews. We only had 40-60 minutes to dine as we were late and had a train to catch—the staff at Isaac’s were able to accommodate us and were very quick and attentive with their service. I would definitely recommend coming here, and would consider coming again if I was back in Cork.

Had an amazing meal here at the weekend. Beautiful restaurant with a lovely calm atmosphere. Staff were very pleasant and friendly. A good variety of options on the menu, with some nice specials each day. Food was delicious and very reasonably priced for the high quality we received. Would recommend booking in advance. We will definitely return to eat here.

Stayed for 1 night in budget single room with bathroom, €75 excluding breakfast. Everything, including common areas, was spotless and comfortable. Kettle, iron, ironing board, spare towels, tv, available in room. Staff efficient and friendly. Breakfast (in my case a generous “small Irish”) for €15 was available in dining room downstairs, and was good. Great central location. Thanks to everyone.

Beautiful work lunch had last week for a group of approx 14. Service was efficient without being at all rushed or hasty. All food was brought out hot and within the same time frame for the group to enjoy. First time visiting here for a lunch and so pleasantly surprised I look forward to a return visit.

We had a lovely meal on Sunday, a set meal but with plenty of options. This place has an amazing waterfall and since the restaurantwasnt busy we got the best seat. The staff were very efficient and very friendly. The mushroom soup was amazing served with a variety of different tasty breads. I had vegetarian food and it was mouthwatering. My partner had a seafood meal and was very happy with what they ordered. The service was excellent. We had a bottle of very nice Prosecco. The total cost was about €120 and considering the Prosecco was €40 and the meal was amazing this was defintly worth it. PS I think dessert was included but we were full and in a rush. Look forward to visiting this place again.

Isaacs has never rested on its laurels. I was as pleased with my meal there yesterday as i was 20 years ago. Food was delicious, (deep fried brie and roast duck👍👍), staff professional and very attentive. Lovely airy room in the hot weather, and a great vibe. Don't pass it by👏👏👏

My wife and I enjoyed a fabulous anniversary dinner here. Although it was extremely busy, the hostess seated us at a nice table. We hade the steak It was incredibly fresh and tasty. The Tunisian server was super nice and friendly the service was amazing 🥰🥰🥰 Definitely recommend and will be back

Food was expectional. Atmosphere was great. Service was top notch. Got the Crispy fried Brie with chilli jam and Chickpea & potato curry with roasted butternut squash with basmati rice, poppadum. Would recommend.

Great food and service. Nice atmosphere. Kitchen must pay attention how they cook steak (medium rare or medium not the same as medium well)

One of my most fave restaurants in Cork. We celebrated my moms 70th birthday last week here, and the staff were incredible. The customer service was absolutely impeccable. They went above and beyond for the entire evening, making sure we had everything. Which made the night out even more special. The food was just DIVINE. Absolutely mouth watering. 5 star service galore! Thanks again to all the wonderful staff :) Can’t wait to return

Fine dining with style

My partner and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at Isaac's recently. This was our second visit and we were equally impressed as we were the first time. The food was fantastic (I had the monkfish special and my partner had the steak) and although it was very busy, the atmosphere was still enjoyable. The food was fresh, tasty and plentiful. I would like to especially mention our waitress (her name was Liza on the bill). She was clearly a very experienced waitress and made us feel very welcomed. Her attention to detail was flattering and she came across as friendly, relaxed and accommodating even though she was obviously run off her feet. We really enjoyed our evening and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Isaac's to anyone!

Excellent restaurant. Delicious food and nice service.

Fantastic restaurant

Good food

Fabulous meal just had at Isaacs. Service really fabulous We have dined at this restaurant dozens of times ,and we have yet to get a bad meal there. Well done guys.

Nice old world quality restaurant. Food excellent, service good but got a bit slow after main course. Deservedly popular. Great for an occasion.

Good food and good company made for a good night. A little noisy but there were roadworks outside which made everyone speak louder but this restaurant is well worth a visit, not cheap but great staff and lovely food.

All very nice bar 10oz steak. Very chewy, not sure the quality was the best. Can fault the rest.

Excellent service, food and atmosphere Reasonably priced. Really enjoyed our experience at Issacs.

Great, cozy experience for our first night in Cork!

Excellent food, very friendly and welcoming staff. A really relaxed evening.

Lovely atmosphere. Very disappointing food.

The food here does the talking for them. I loved every bite of it. The staff are very nice also. Will definitely eat here again in the future. Would recommend this place.

Ate at this excellent Cork institution. Turbot fillet for 19 Eur was too good to resist. Food is excellent and you definitely won't leave hungry. Black pudding salad to start, then Turbot with buerre blanch followed by Tunisian orange cake. All excellent and great value.

Excellent service and excellent food.

Simply the best. Isaac's never disappoints. The food is exquisite. Thai Green Curry is historic. I could go on and on. Every dish is a treat. I miss the old lady who dined there every day. She dined and read her paper at the same table every day. The owners and the staff really looked after her. A great establishment in every sense of the word.

Excellent staff and quality food

Superb,gorgeous restaurant,great menu,wonderful staff.

(Translated by Google) I didn’t like it at all. Inside, everything is crowded with tables so much that even taking off outer clothing without disturbing the neighbors will fail. Very noisy. When all the tables are filled, there is a strong buzz, a feeling is created that it is at the station. No hoods, very stuffy. The food did not like at all. With a large declared choice on the restaurant’s website, you will be offered an A4 piece of paper with a very limited choice of food. Refrain from ordering Irish coffee. They brought me something in a dirty glass that tasted more like old coffee, preheated in a microwave and lots of whiskey. There was no creamy layer at all. Of the good, I can say thanks to the waiter. (Original) Совершенно не понравилось. Внутри все заставлено столиками настолько, что даже снять верхнюю одежду не помешав соседям, не получится. Очень шумно. Когда заполняются все столики, стоит сильный гул, создается ощущение, что это на вокзале. Вытяжки нет, очень душно. Еда не понравилась совсем. При большом заявленном выборе на сайте ресторана, вам предложат формата А4 бумажку, с очень ограниченным выбором еды. Воздержитесь от заказа Irish coffee. Мне принесли чтото в грязном бокале, по вкусу больше похожее на старый кофе, разогретый в микроволновке и большим количеством виски. Сливочной прослойки при этом не было совсем. Из хорошего, могу сказать спасибо официанту.

Beautiful food

Great place lovely food great staff

Yum. Had lunch here with my lovely wife the food so good and the lady that served us was great. Went next door to Cask for a drink after. Would highly recommend here... J...

Fantastic steak. The meat was cooked to perfection, one of the best I ever had. Just a bit bland without any herbs or spice. Great wine available. This is one of the better restaurants in Cork, definitely. If only parking would be possible!

Had another great meal with the girls here tonight. Always a treat and was the perfect end to a perfect day. Food does the talking here.

Fantastic venue. Great menu. Wonderful staff.

Good food

Good restaurant that is a little bit more classy then the typical Irish pubs in the city centre. The restaurant has got quite a broar range of foods ranging from local black pudding to nice fish dishes. Friendly waiters and reasonably priced.

From Arbutus to Isaac,s rest.kept his tratition good food,great boss Katleen & Michael Ryan The overriding atmosphere of a sérious ,prof.Hse. Maybe one day an Auberge somewhere in Irld ??

Love the food. Never disappoints.

Food delicious. Service very good.

Very nice place, cosy and great staff. Good food and but high prices to be expected. Very nice wine recommended from the waiter. Do book ahead as we were lucky to get a table without booking on the weekend.

Great food and exceptional service

Always busy. But the staff was attentive every time and meal all was lovely.

First time having food there and came away very satisfied with the flavour and variety, Service was exceptional.
