    We had a lovely night last Friday in Lotties - our table was in the back which is never an ideal spot as away from the main action but it filled up after a while - food was very good and service was excellent - very attentive waiter and thoughtful - sorry I didn't get his name to give a shout out - he listened to the table - surprised the birthday girl with a candle in dessert - unprompted - and heard I love parmesan so delivered an extra dish - all making for a lovely night - thanks Lotties x

    First time to dine at Lotties and so glad we did. On arrival, the restaraunt was full which contributed to a real buzz around the place. Despite being so busy, the service was on point, the food was amazing and a great selection of cocktails and wines to choose from. Will definitely be back 👌

    Disappointing. Not our first time here, but with only 4 mains, one fish in broth, one rump of lamb, one a steak and one gnocchi struggled to find a main course of interest to me. Had the gnocchi, which was stodgy, cardinal sin. Have had better meals here before and the menu has been better. The bavette I hear is consistent but who wants to eat steak out. Staff excellent and well trained, if a bit under pressure on the night. Reluctant to write this, but would not be rushing back.

    We live close to this restaurant and this was our first visit. We dined with another couple. Space is lovely,staff were very pleasant and efficient but sadly the food was not up to the same standard. The trout and scallop staters were fine.a little in the small side The sea swim was swimming in a salty broth,difficult to eat out of a bowl!! The lamb was fatty,tough and far too rare. It was inedible. Overall we were disappointed,we wanted to love it as it is on our doorstep but we won’t be back.

    Lottie’s offers delicious food at extremely reasonable prices for what you’re getting. I really like that none of the mains were over €30, which allows you to splash out on starters and/or snacks, depending how hungry you are! Everything was delicious but the Sea Bass was exceptionally good and the Potato Skins snack with gribiche was very moreish. Service is top notch, felt very genuine and effortlessly attentive, and the ambience is lovely.
