Paris Texas Bar and Restaurant

"Great American style restaurant in the middle of Kilkenny. The portions are so big and the food tastes amazing. They have Corona on tap, which I've never seen in Ireland before. I recommend the ribs. They are beautiful ❤️ The staff was great and very fast too. The place is also kid's friendly. Loved it"

"Loved this place which is dedicated to a movie called Paris, Texas, a place I've actually been to on a trip or two to Houston. It's American menu was refreshing break from the Irish food. I had the Reuben, first time I'd seen corn beef on a menu as it is not a traditional Irish dish there. Plus Reubens are my favorite sandwich. It was delicious. Nice corn beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and their own homemade thousand Island dressing which every one at the table agreed was delicious. My niece had a nice big bowl of seafood chowder. Large pieces of seafood, shrimp, clams and mussels, in a creamy broth and two nice size Irish brown bread. She loved it! Her husband had a Santa Fe dish and that too looked good, smelled delicious and tasted a bit like home. An unexpected treat."

"Americans who are used to GOOD BBQ: Save yourself the hassle and skip this place. First off, the service was GREAT. Servers and hosts were all very friendly and attentive. I can say nothing bad about the waitstaff at all - they were lovely! The food though. Oy....DRIEST. MEAT. EVER. Smoked meats should be tender and juicy and flavorful and falling off the bone. The pulled pork and the brisket were both SO dry that I had to douse them in sauce to get down the little I ate. My husband's steak was also tough and dry. The ribs were good though!! THOSE were juicy and cooked properly. My daughters got salads. The Cobb salad had lots of Cobb ingredients but maybe 5 leaves of lettuce. Weird The macaroni and cheese looked like Kraft but actually had LESS flavor. Americans - skip this and get your BBQ at home! It's not what you're looking for."

"One of the busiest places in Kilkenny, has a good variety in the menu from burgers to steak and chicken and drinks.. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and wings were really good for starters. It has different areas to sit so you better be familiar with the place to pick your favorite side."

"Exceptional service and wonderfully clean and stylish bar/restaurant. I tried their jambalaya and I was very happy with it. Outstanding jambalaya or jambalaya-inspired dishes aren’t very common in Ireland in my view so I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious theirs was. My jambalaya had a lovely smokiness to it and all the meats were well-seasoned and beautifully cooked – from the crawfish to the Andouille sausages. The heat and spiciness was also just right. We revisited this place and the atmosphere was buzzing and lively."
