So I'd like to clear the air first, because it seems like there are two places called the Flesk in the town of Killarney. While going for a run the day before my family ate here, we ran past a sign on the other side of town, which I bring up since I feel this might explain some of the... More

Having been to this restaurant last summer were suitably impressed with it that we said we would come back for our 2nd wedding anniversary which was today...... I rang a month ago, booked the table, rang again on Monday of this week to confirm the booking was told ring back later, did so and no answer, rang the following night... More

Sunday evening in Killarney: Most everything is closed. Our plans had to change and we started to wander and happened upon this place. Others walking in said it had good reviews so we gave it a try. It was quite busy and obviously just got over a rush. Nice atmosphere with a bar and fireplace. We had a 3 course... More

Unfortunately we were seated under a counter of the bar area and a non... More

My wife and I had the early bird menu after the Killarney races in the surprisingly cosy ,busy Flesk Restaurant. My Lobster . prawn and mussels platter was an affordable 23 euro , whilst my wife had panfried hake and mushy peas. The atmosphere was brilliant, with tourists mixing with locals, especially as the tables are quite close together. Seems... More

From reading other reviews it would seem that Flesk used to be a good place to go. This is no longer the case. Nothing was cooked fresh, which in a seafood restaurant is poor. The chowder was just fish and cream. Mussels were dry and had not been cooked fresh. The lamb was ok but had clearly been reheated and... More

For starters - I call into question any of the positive reviews. If you want to eat low quality food from the local VFW then start here. You will not feel like you're in Ireland nor will you taste anything local. I could write a book but I'll give you the quick summary. The food was some of the worst... More

Some of the people in our dinner party had the lobster. It was delicious! I would highly recommend ordering it. It is a local restaurant with a large variety of choices for your meal. It is right in town and easy to find.

After moving from Ireland 6 years ago we came back for a holiday & decided to travel to Killarney with all our family. The thing we missed a lot from home was the beautiful food. We were recommended the flesk for a family feast & we were not disappointed. The food was so tasty & fresh with a traditional feel... More
