    Lads, my sis and hubbie live in Carlow and I'd like to get them a voucher for a nice restaurant in town. Any suggestions please. Type doesn't really matter
    - Irish, med, Thai, French, mex. Not Chinese. They're in their 30s, so a bit of atmosphere and fun with a crowd, not stuffy and empty. Thanks.

    The Thai, Weeping Tiger is lovely. Brooks in the Dinn rí complex has a bistro type menu and usually has music on weekends as well.

    In my opinion the only restaurant in Carlow town I would bother going to is Mimosa, head there at least once a month and never disappointed. The best tapas I've had in Ireland.

    Other that Mimosa the selection of restaurants in the town is truly appalling.

    Weeping Thaiger is very good
    Mimosa - haven't been there for a while, but it was excellent

    Mimosa is the only place I will use. Lennon's @ the Visual is pretty good too

    That newish place 15 beside The Med bar looks good. Jammed most weekends. Lemon Grass is a nice sot also.

    The brasserie beside the med bar has a great looking menu, haven't had a chance to try it yet. Brooks is a good safe bet as they have something to suit all tastes and the quality is always good

    It's pretty good - we've taken clients / suppliers there for dinner a few times and the service and food was very good

    Post won't be of any help to OP, but for others wondering about restaurants:
    Went to Shapla (The Indian on Kennedy Ave.) the other day. Food was lovely, service was good, and was just in general a good experience. First time in there.
    Lemongrass was really nice - Haven't been in a long time now. Must be 2 years.
    I'd also recommend Pompei. Never had a bad experience in there. Food is always great, and the service is brilliant.

    I've always wanted to try Shapla. Must do so soon.

    Lemongrass is good but a little on the expensive side.

    Pompeii is gone now, sadly.
