Everything was perfect! Our table was ready, private. Food was excellent as was the service. They had a guitarist, really good. He sang Pink Pony Club with an Irish accent, too funny. Reasonable value

Kevin was our waiter & he was wonderful. SO welcoming and so helpful with my gluten allergy. Kevin was lovely every time we saw him during our multiple times at the restaurant & bar at The Hardiman. Front line Staff are what truly make a place the kind of place that you want to return to.
