A beautiful meal in a beautiful restaurant. Although the dining room isn’t big we were seated at a corner table so weren’t really overlooked by other diners. It was very comfortable.
The food was wonderful, from the garlic prawns starter to the tiramisu dessert and of course the wonderful wine.
The staff were very courteous and knowledgeable. We will most certainly be back!!

The Peak was recommended to us by our b & b hosts and it did not disappoint. Amazing view of the bay. We all ate different meals and all thought the quality was excellent especially the lobster and mussels. Staff were very friendly and we can't wait to go back

I was here last month with my husband and two children. I rang ahead and booking and we just got in the door before they gave our table away. We were seated at a table near kitchen which wasn't ideal but anywhere else would have awkward with a high chair. The food was gorgeous but I felt very anxious everytime the baby cried or looked for attention. It was stressful for us but the staff were great. I found dessert menu limited and expensive but I will be back again but I will have a sitter booked

Located on Bayview Terrace if you are approaching from sligo drive into Bundoran and take the first left after the Allingham Arms Hotel and the Restaurant is situated 50 metres further up on the righr hand side in a quiet residential Cul de sac. If you are approaching from Ballyshannon drive throught the town and take the left after the little Church that is beside The Bridge Bar.

The food is excellent. The kids had very nice pizzas. The seafood pasta had authentic Italian flavours and they produced delicious home made Italian desserts. Staff were friendly and attentive. The only thing that let it down was the decor. Black paint everywhere!

Stopped for lunch in what looks from the outside an ordinary enough bar. Left completely satisfied following good food, good atmosphere and friendly staff. We tried crab on sourdough with broccoli soup and open ham Sandwich which were both delicious. Good fries too. Recommend it!

It is the restaurant of Fitzgerald's Hotel, which is allready listed in Trip Advisor's hotel section
Reviewed By Buddy088 - Co.Down, N.Ireland
The Bistro is, by far, the best restaurant in Bundoran! Lovely ambience, good menu and superb food. Would definitely recommend this eatery, especially for a special occasion. The staff are also excellent & I always enjoy John's enthuastic description of the Specials - he also knows his wines! Go on - treat yourself, but remember to book in advance.

Nirvana restaurant is now back under the management of the Kelly family. We look forward to meeting and greeting all our old friends and welcoming new faces to Ballyshannon. We are sure that you will enjoy our fine dining in the rear portion of the restaurant or our casual dining in the front of house. In either case you will be well catered for by our widely experienced local Chefs - Graham Lynch and David McCadden

We found this lovely restaurant on our way home after a very wet and cold day in Donegal. Stopping in Ballyshannon town we asked a local for any restaurant open at 5.30pm on a Sunday. They recommended Nirvana. it's quite hidden down a side Mall off the main street. Quite a find! Wet, cold and hungry, with no booking, we were welcomed as if we were regulars although we fell in before they had really opened!. There is an excellent varied menu and the Early Bird represents very good value. We enjoyed great service from Bernie. They can be busy so book ahead. Recommended

It is situated in a quiet part of town. Close to the cinema.. It was about 9.30pm on a Friday evening and there wasn't too many people in. The restaurant advertised a special.. Any starter any main dish pilau or boiled rice and a bottle of beer.. €19.95.. We went for the special.. We both truly enjoyed the meals. They were fresh and cooked perfectly.. We were also given complimentary poppadoms while we waited. The staff was friendly and very attentive.. It offers a good takeaway menu too. It will now be our regular Indian restaurant whenever we return to Bundoran.. I wish it was back home in the uk so we could use it more often.. First class Indian food. First class staff. Clean and warm surroundings..

Ate here three times while visiting Bundoran. Pork chops once: a bit too dry but decent sides and acceptable. Breakfast second time: 'traditional Irish breakfast'--average and decent. Take away fish 'n chips third time: very tasty, especially tasty and well-cooked chips. I would visit again on a return visit.

Great breakfast for a family of five on a Monday morning. They're always really friendly in here. Foodies great. Good value. Three full Irish'es, two mini Irish'es, coffees, teas, hot chocolates and the bill was less than €40.
They don't open until 9 and they're closed on Sunday's. Coffee is the best around. The proprietor is Italian. I think he's the cousin or brother of the man who runs the courthouse restaurant nearby.
Oh, also, they have free wifi.
