The East Room Restaurant | Plassey House

"Celebrated a special occasion with a delicious and luxurious lunch. Will go back for dinner. Lunch exceeded our expectations with food quality, service and convenience. We made an online reservation the day before for 12:30 Sunday. Received confirmation immediately. Sunday was quiet at the University as they are shutting down next week for staff Annual Leave break. Vincenzo and Holly took care of us. Both were so warm and personable that we felt at ease and so relaxed in this historic setting. Pace was perfect. Menu changes daily but offered 3 choices for each course from vegetarian, fish and meat. This restaurant is a gem. Go early and you may be lucky like us to initially have the restaurant and staff to yourself."

"Beautiful restaurant. We dined at the East Room which is a Michelin guide rated restaurant but could easily earn a star or two one of these days. Ambiance was old school, elegant and ornate without being garish. Service was friendly, hospitable, knowledgeable and efficient. Food offerings were excellent. Right from the North County and sourdough breads made in-house served with house churned butter to the after dinner petit-fours. Everything in between was thoughtfully prepared, artistically presented demonstrating mastery of the arts. Standouts were the lobster ravioli appetizer that had a unique citrus quality that complemented the protein. The stand out entrée was the beef short rib. Delectable, tender and generously portioned. This was accompanied by lovely roast baby potatoes and a charred cabbage wedge that had been previously fermented like a kimchi or a sauerkraut. Dessert didn’t let down either. Passion fruit soufflé was text book. My chocolate bar was creamy chocolate mouse topped with a ganache sitting atop a crunchy base that had notes of chocolate and browned butter. This was accompanied by a cereliac (?!) ice cream which somehow worked. Our head server suggested an amazing 2021 Rose that we shared at the table. It was complex, cool and crisp. The bottle was priced at a very reasonable price point as well. The restaurant unfortunately doesn’t do cocktails but they crafted a lovely drink for our daughter made with cassis cream and Prosecco that was lovely. Overall, highly recommend the meal experience here."

"Highly recommend the Eastroom! Food and service was exceptionally good. We were company of 5 and non of us was disappointed. Its a must go restaurant if you are in Limerick."

"I can’t say enough good things about my dining experience here. The food was delicious, and the service was wonderful. Mr. Vincenzo Del Santo, the manager, was so personable & always made sure us, & every table there, was doing well. His passion shines through him. I highly recommend dining here if given the chance. The building is beautiful & the service, plus the great food, makes for a magical experience."

"It was my first time dining in this restaurant and I really enjoyed it. The portions were tiny but the food was incredible. The menu was unique and I have not tried anything like it before. I was really glad to go there. I recommend !"
