Yellow Pepper

Great place. We really enjoyed it. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Highly recommended

One of the best restaurants we visited on our entire trip to Ireland. I can't recommend this place enough if you are a vegetarian! The shepardless pie was amazing! The sweet potato salad was great as well. I really appreciated the large selection of local craft beer.

Recently visited Yellow Pepper when I was in Letterkenny for the ATU Graduations and cannot recommend it highly enough! Walking in with no reservation was made feel very welcomed by all the staff, Sean our waiter was brilliant! He was extremely pleasant and chatty and took great care of us. The food was unbeatable! The chicken was cooked perfectly and so moist and portion sizes are so generous. Great value for money and will definitely be back on my next visit to Letterkenny, would recommend as a stop to anyone's visit in Letterkenny!

What an absolute gem. Yellow Pepper is one of those rare places that just gets everything right, from the warm, genuinely attentive service to the relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. The décor strikes a perfect balance between casual comfort and thoughtful style, making it ideal whether you’re in for a relaxed lunch or a special dinner. This was my second visit, and it was every bit as impressive as the first. The food is consistently outstanding. Fresh, full of flavour, and clearly prepared with real care and quality ingredients. Portions are generous without compromising on presentation or finesse, and you can tell a lot of pride goes into every dish that leaves the kitchen. There’s a buzz in the room without it ever feeling loud or rushed, and staff manage to be friendly and efficient without hovering, a rare skill these days. Simply put, Yellow Pepper is a must-visit. In my view, it’s easily the best spot for food in Letterkenny, and a place you’ll find yourself planning to return to before you’ve even finished your meal. Highly recommended.

Good place for a meal alone or in a group. Fast, attentive service. Prawn starter was slightly over cooked, prawns were slightly chewy but tasty. Braised beef mains was very good. I dread to think how much butter or cream was in the mash.

Absolutely top class. Incredibly busy when myself and my partner arrived for our pre-booked table, and we were looked after from the minute we arrived. The food was superb, service was superb, the lovely gentleman upstairs who attended to us was courteous, funny and a great host. Will 100% be back for more.

Yellow pepper is out on its own, the staff are so friendly & so professional it feels like fine dining. I rarely eat beef burgers but for quickness I ordered one & believe me im glad I did, beats any burger I ever had & garlic potatoes perfect. Cant wait to get eating there again very soon.

Lovely restaurant with a nice atmosphere and excellent service. The food was really good. They serve a local beer on tap that I enjoyed. Street parking so you might need to look for parking and it is paid street parking. 1 euro per hour. The fish was fresh, not from frozen. My son enjoyed the chicken. Deserts were delicious. I would highly recommend the apple pie. I added a photo of the kids menu. This restaurant make as much effort for the children as for the main menu. Loved it. Thank you!

Great food. I had the lamb rump with roasted potatoes and mushrooms. We had mussels to start. Excellent preparation and presentation. Friendly awry and great Christmas decorations and ambiance before the holiday.

We had a great experience of dining and wonderful service at Yellow Pepper. In Letterkenny for a wedding and wanted to find a place for dinner, not too far from where we were staying. We walked into Yellow Pepper without a reservation and were graciously met by Naomi, who was simply terrific! The food, ambience and service were outstanding. In fact, it was so great that we decided to spend the second night at the restaurant and the food again was superb. If you find yourself in or near Letterkenny, I would definitely make Yellow Pepper a required stop for fine dining.

The staff was welcoming, the wheat bread was delicious, nd the seafood special was superb. I'll definitely be visiting again soon before flying home.

The food and service were amazing. We had a full dish menu with steak / salmon and this was the best main dish till now during our vacation on Ireland. The service was very helpful and ask where we are from and what we are going to next. At the end we had apple pie as dessert and I loved it. Also, you get water for free. Finally, the food was good but also not the cheapest.

On Ireland group tour staying overnight in Letterkenny. Seafood platter was great. I think I'm going to move here just to eat the mussels every day.

I was in a group of 25 and this place managed to make it seem very personal. The service and food were outstanding. Many of the folks at our table took advantage of the fresh Donegal mussels for their starter course while I chose the Eastern Spiced Chicken (with mango dip). These were hefty servings and nicely prepared. For our main, over half our table chose the Donegal lamb shanks -- very succulent and so tenderly cooked the meal fell off the bone. There were ample sides on the plate (champ and carrots), but the table also shared extra veggies that were passed family style. Among the desserts we tried were an Irish Moss Custard and an Almond-Fudge Ice Cream (we would call it a sundae in the states). Most of us were full enough from the first 2 courses, we barely finished our desserts. This really is a don't-miss restaurant -- atmosphere, food, and an ample selection of craft beers.

Went here on the recommendation of our AirBnB host and it didn't disappoint! The service was efficient and friendly, despite some indecision on what to get, and the food was great amd local! We went in pretty late so there were only a few tables filled. I opted for the salmon amd BF got the dry aged filet. When the food came out, my BF's dish didn't seem cooked all the way through (very very rare probably bc it was a pretty thick cut and the kitchen wanted to go home), so he had to ask them to refire it a bit. My salmon was excellent however. He was happy with the flavor of the steak once it was properly cooked, although it seemed a bit tough to cut. We ended with the profiteroles, which were fantastic and we had to hold back from licking the plate clean. Would definitely recommend giving it a try!

This is a very nice place. Gorgeous inside, friendly service, great drinks and a delicious food. We had some nice local craft brews, followed by the purely fantastic homemade shepherd's pie. At least I did, the pie was so good I can't remember whatever the wife had.

What a great place! We had the mussles to share as our appetizer and then each ordered the poached salmon which did not disappoint! Atmosphere is warm and inviting. Very lovely dinner.

We were driving back from Glenveagh national park and stopped here for an early dinner. The restaurant seems to offer a pretty wide variety of food at a somewhat elevated prep but without a lot of fuss. Little did we know that they have a value menu if you come to eat before 6:30 (I think). The menu offers a smaller portion of the menu but you get 2 courses for 16.50 euro or 3 courses for 20 euro. Great deal. We ordered the steamed mussels and vegetable soup as the first course and the fish and chips and pork belly as our mains. The prep on the mussels was good but not too complicated (parsley, onions and wine). The vegetable soup was tasty. The fish and chips was very good altho we didn't get enough tartar sauce for the size of fish. The chips were good. The pork belly was crispy and on a chorizo cassoulet with some blood sausage. Great combo. I also really liked their acoustic covers of big hits that was playing in the restaurant. I'm sure it made my pork belly taste that much better. By the time we left at 7:30, the restaurant was totally full so perhaps if you come then, you may need a reservation. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area

Really great place. Working in letterkenny for a few days and followed yelp to this place. Had scallops and Spanish style cod, both great. I don't eat meat, so the category of "steakhouse" made me think. But this is a great restaurant whatever you eat. Wish I had a place like this near home back in London.

Stopped in after a long drive from Dublin-( a return visit to this restaurant form last year). Was not disappointed. Cozy and hospitable with a wonderful array of locally sourced items . Creative and savory dishes well priced and waitstaff was outstanding.

Followed the yelp reviews and went with this place when we were looking for somewhere to eat. Have to say that all those 4 & 5 star reviews on yelp are spy on. There is a lovely atmosphere in this place and the staff are extremely friendly. Food is reasonably priced, well presented and flavorsome. I can recommend the goats cheese crostonis they were delicious.

Had a great meal here. Combination of steady staples and chefs specials. Sampled the Eastern Chicken to start and the had the lamb special. Both were terrific.

Great food. Waiter was amazing. Lamb shank was perfect. Duck was Devine. Desserts were fantastic. Only negative was no Guinness on tap. But if that's the only complaint I'm just nit-picking. Highly recommend!

Newly refurbished and prices have come down. Excellent food and probably the most popular restaurant in town, May require bookings for busy times but well worth a visit.

Most popular place in town, good food and nice atmosphere which makes the wait for food all the nicer.
