This is one amazing place the food is first class. The service is excellent. The atmosphere is great. Bathroom are up to date and modern. Piano music . The pub had a great atmosphere. Beautiful views during the day great for weddings. Be prepared to spend a lot

Absolutely amazing restaurant. The food is absolutely incredible, the staff are fantastic and the scenes are breath taking. Not to mention I had the best Espresso Martini I have had in my life. I would recommend to anyone in the area to travel down, particularly if you are a seafood fan. Can’t wait to come back.

We were staying 5min away from this place and it truly felt like the hidden gem of our trip to Ireland! Local crowd, amazing views and absolutely delicious food. We sat at the bar side since it was more casual, but they do have a restaurant that looks perfect for a night out or a celebratory dinner. The restaurant side menu is available at the bar. My boyfriend said it was the best seafood chowder he's ever had. I had the asparagus and goat cheese salad and was over the moon with it. We enjoyed it all so much we decided to get dessert too and we're not disappointed!! We thoroughly enjoyed it all and the experience!!

Incredible food, wonderful service topped off with a beautiful view. Scallops, Black Dover Sole and Halibut cooked to perfection.

What a simply incredible place. The view is only amazing. I was the Celebrant at Julie & James’ wedding. The venue is magical for a wedding, lunch or dinner. The food I had was fresh and imaginative. I didn’t get to try the local gin but it looked good. Thank you to Brian and his team.

Now this is a really special place for a great meal with great views. We have been there several times and always been 100% happy with it. Staff are very helpful also. Highly recommended.

Excellent meal for all 5 of us. Mainly a fish / seafood menu. Felt the starters were a bit pricy for what one got, but absolutely delicious, as we're the main courses.

Myself and my husband got married in Jacks in September 2024! From the start to finish, Brian and wedding Co-ordinater Pauline were absolutely amazing! The planning process was easy and smooth. We wanted a unique venue with great food, views of the sea and mountains and honestly couldn’t have chosen a better venue! Our guests said the food was one of the best they had at any wedding. Cod and Steaks cooked to perfection and amazing service! Thanks again to all the staff for such an amazing day!

Great spot, good food, and incredible views on a clear day. There was 8 of us, we called ahead and they were able to have our food prepared before we arrived.

I read about this place in a guide book. So we planned a beach trip around it. When we arrived we realized they were closed. They were so kind to serve us pints in the back garden. We had a delightful time in this beautiful sunny spot right on the water. And the beer was delicious!

Very disappointed! Went there on 28/06/2017 and the meal was a very expensive disaster. We were expecting a quiet dinner sitting by a window looking at the lake. When we entered the dining room there were children on the mezzanine with parents. As we were being seated by the host a kid ran up and said, "Dad can I have some money?" After being seated and having drinks the children began running, jumping and screaming all over the place. Someone ushered the kids outside so we decided to stay and order our food. The decor is modern and very nice with tablecloths and cloth napkins but no sound attenuation. As our food arrived the children came back in and the noise commenced. We were seated within six meters of the piano and you couldn't hear it being played. Interestingly the adults were very loud trying to be heard above the din of the children. I mentioned to the host that this was the noisiest restaurant I'd ever been in, and my wife commented it was like being in a child care center. His response was, "It's a family gathering and so children should be included." No apologies. We ate one-half of our meals and left.

We frequent Jack's on our annual Ireland trip. From the traditional bar front with open fire and plenty of seating, to the ultra modern decor of the dining room complete with pianist, fabulous and consistent food, and near panoramic ocean views. The seafood chowder is some of the best around. Rich hearty and creamy. Assorted seafood throughout, however my favorite in the chowder is the chunks of moist, fresh, locally sourced wild Atlantic salmon. The tiger prawn are another favorite starter. Fried to perfection, plated beautifully and a house made Thai chilli sauce compliments the dish so well. Any, and I mean, any seafood on the menu will delight and impress all. The menu is frequently updated to keep the most fresh seasonal options available.

Great meal and great service. We popped in on a busy Saturday and they fit us in without a problem. We had salmon and halibut and both were delicious.

Truly one the best restaurant's in County Kerry high end food with wonderful fresh local produce. The traditional bar at the front of the dining area is a contrast to the ultra modern restaurant- amazing and spectacular views from the restaurant towards the Dingle peninsula - family friendly with great service- well worth a visit
