Kernel Kitchen - Kilkenny

Rating: 3 out of 5. The service was excellent, but a bit on the slow side. The waiter was very friendly, though. Unfortunately, the food was subpar. I ordered the chicken burger and it seemed undercooked, so I ended up leaving it uneaten. It was a waste of €16.50, to be honest. However, their cocktails were fantastic. I would suggest this place for drinks, but not for food. The burger was overly greasy and the bacon in it was extremely fatty, making it difficult to eat.

Walked in to be greeted by two members of staff who looked at us if we were Aliens. I ordered turkey and ham and it was Luke warm. No veg with it. And clearly a microwave reheat. My girlfriend had pasta which was lovely she said. no effort by staff to even ask if meal was ok. Just took payment and not even a thank you. Won’t be returning

Had a delicious dinner here. The staff were friendly and there was good service. Food came quickly. The duck was delicious and the mashed potato was the best I have ever had. Unfortunately the chef wouldn't give the recipe, which was very understandable. It was absolutely perfect. The desserts were fantastic. Dead by chocolate was moist and the crumble was very tasty. Would recommend people to try the restaurant. Very reasonably priced also.

Lovely quirky decor. Excellent food and a very entertaining and informative host. Plus beautiful creamy Guiness on tap. Well worth a visit.

Had a delicious meal in a fabulous bar/restaurant in the heart of Kilkenny. Main courses were about €14 but the portion sizes were very large. Food was tasty and well presented with plenty of it. We were there with kids and the kids were able to have pizza. Very good value for money. Staff offered excellent table service. Will definitely make a return visit.
