There's no phone and no email - you just rock up and make yourself comfortable - and the menu is not available online, unfortunately, but Micheal Sheary’s neighbourhood burger joint is an exceptional casual dining destination.

Just Ask Restaurant of the Month for December - Osta Café & Winebar, Sligo


Osta Cafe & Winebar - Brid Torrades
Author: Georgina Campbell
The Garavogue river sweeps past this bright and airy café in the centre of Sligo town, and the floor to ceiling glass frontage - and outdoor seating - makes it a delightful spot for coffee (organic and fairly traded) or a more substantial meal. A small bar area is a good spot to sip wine from a well chosen list in the early evening - and later sometimes, if there are events eg the culturally-focused Osta Sessions.

The original Good Things Cafe opened in Durrus in 2003 and the move to beautiful two-storey premises in the centre of Skibbereen, 18 months ago, has given this gifted and very determined food heroine a magical setting to develop her national reputation as a leader in the local food revolution.

Just Ask Restaurant of the Month for April - Restaurant Sage


Restaurant Sage, Letterkenny
Author: Georgina Campbell
Just across the road from An Grianan Theatre in Letterkenny, Restaurant Sage is the brainchild of Donegal man and hospitality professional Garvan Gallagher, who travelled far and wide before settling back here to open the restaurant of his dreams in 2013. It’s a lovely big modern room and very simply decorated - think local photographs of Donegal set against white walls. Just the right setting when you want the food to take centre stage.
