A fantastic local restaurant. I had a tasty chicken starter and the very substantial lamb chops for main course … Yum! Ma sister had a side of spinach to start and a dahl main course that she loved. Thanks again

I travel 100km round trip every couple of months just for this place. Parking in Douglas is a disaster so I always go to the Ballincollig one and every single time I walk away satisfied! It's so authentic with some modern twists!

Whenever I am in Ballincollig, I meet up with family and eat here. The food is always absolutely delicious and the staff are so nice and obliging. It is definitely one of my favourite places to eat.
There are so many yummy vegan/vegetarian options - the Dahl Makhani is so good as is the Aloo Gobhi. We enjoyed every mouthful and there were zero leftovers!!!!
