We love this restaurant! The food is wonderful, wine amazing and hospitality unbelievable. We have a picky 2 year old and they are so helpful trying to find meals that he will eat. We go here at least twice a month and keep going back. Try the tiramisu! It is by far the best Italian in Cork, if not Ireland. More

Great coffee, snacks and desserts. Friendly staff. More of a cafe than a restaurant. Limited options at night and busy cafe style rather than quiet and ambient More

Popped into Italee for the first time last week, it is a nice busy & bustling Italian café in Cork City centre. Great coffee, nice and strong and our panini's were made with a few simple ingredients but were very very tasty, as you'd expect in a good Italian café! I'll be back for the coffee for sure, but also... More

This is one spot I would love to keep quiet about coz I'm afraid that i'll will not be able to get a table there once it is discovered! I have been going there for about a year now having been introduced to it be an Italian friend. I have been here for coffee, lunch & in the evenings and... More

I have eaten here twice now. Once for lunch which was so very tasty and once for coffee and dessert after a bit of shopping. I would go back there just for the Tiramisu. It was utterly divine. The coffee is of excellent quality and the menu is small, simple and appealing. I had the canneloni with spinach and ricotta... More

It is not often that I am so highly impressed but Italee blew me away! I discovered the cafe when I needed to grab a quick lunch in that part of town and went in search of something fresh and healthy as I did not want to eat from Subway or Spar which are the other two lunch food outlets... More

Went here for lunch, having read about it on Tripadvisor, and was not disappointed. In fact it was fabulous. The paninis were fabulous and the capuccinos (€2.50 for a large one, excellent value) were as nice as I have ever tasted. Very highly recommended for lunch. More
