Great Asian inspired restaurant. They had a couple of my favourite dishes. Lovely, fresh decor and the staff were friendly and attentive. I was dining on my own, which can be a bit daunting, but felt totally at ease there. Can't imagine anyone being disappointed here. Would recommend.

The restaurant was full and buzzing on a Saturday afternoon when we came in for lunch. This place is just around the corner from Athlone castle. Staff was very friendly, and the food was fresh and very well made. Prices are very reasonable as well. We loved the homey small town local atmosphere, and we highly recommend you look it up when in town!

Stopped here for lunch based upon TripAdvisor reviews. Food appalling, one small bowl of vegetables between four people, equated to one very small piece of broccoli per person! Mash potato saturated with salt, replaced with wedges, which resembled and tasted like the previous days left over potatoes! Left this establishment feeling nauseated. NEVER AGAIN

Daytime fine dining with traditional table service.Reservations available.Established in 2012 this family owned restaurant is renowned for its quality, style and service. A must for visitors to Athlone who require a little something special.
Reviewed By rachelnally
Have been here quite regularly. I find Athlone difficult to find a great lunch place in. The corner house has a lovely interior, great staff and a varied menu. They often offer a complimentary little taster cup of their soup of the day which is a lovely touch. However for lunch time standards, I find their choices to be a little pricey for what can sometimes be quite small portions. Still highly recommend, just something to be aware of. Also think it has great potential for an evening dinner, they should consider opening later !!

We were celebrating 2 anniversaries so wanted to enjoy a nice meal with good service. Unfortunately, we got neither. Service was haphazard and sour, not at all friendly. Drinks were missed and we had to keep chasing. The food was also not up to the prices - lack of flavour and over cooked fish were just some examples. Would not recommend.
