Real Gourmet - Ballina

The food at this place is amazing. They only provide takeout service and accept card payments exclusively. They no longer take cash.

I have always enjoyed dining at this restaurant. I went out of my way to eat here, but it was definitely worth it.

The food was supposed to arrive in 45 minutes, but it ended up taking 1 hour and 45 minutes. When it finally arrived, the food was cold, and I had to call the restaurant three times to check on the status of my order. I will not be ordering from this restaurant again.

I wouldn't even give this restaurant one star if I could. I made a reservation for a party of 12, but the service was terrible. We waited 50 minutes for our main dishes after finishing our starters. They only brought out 3 bowls of chips for the table, even though we had ordered 8, and we never received the rice we ordered. Some of the mains were served without forks, and the plates were dirty. Many of our main dishes were missing even after waiting for 25 minutes. When the food did arrive, it was cold and covered in hot sauce. The duck was so tough it was practically inedible. We waited for over 2 hours, and when we asked to speak to a manager, a young girl who seemed clueless and was laughing about the situation came out. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless you want to get sick.

The place is not big it homely it's a place were u would go with your partner for a nice quiet meal to have a talk the food is lovely your not waiting long for the food and the way it is presented to u is just perfect I had the house special with ginger and spring onions with the rice never had anything like it if passing just go in a try something o yes there is a young waitress in there and she is so helpfull and nice
