The food correspondent of the magazine galwaynow recently complimented the staff for their suggestions " from a massive menu ..... we were helped to choose a great meal and compliment it with the perfect bottle of wine" and where . "Each dish is simply a work of art and you have to just sit and look at it for a few moments before disturbing Michael's creation"

The galwaynow menu was .... an appetiser of Chilled Gazpacho Soup to"get the taste buds hopping and ready for what was to come"! Starters for two were Peking Style Salted Chicken Wings and Garlic and Tarragon pan-fried Frogs Legs slightly perfumed with a twist of lemon. Main courses were Thai Tom Yum Tali with Noodles - a selection of seafood and chicken poached in a broth, seasoned with kafer lime leaf, ginger, lemon grass and traditional Thai ingredients enhanced with noodles perfumed with fresh basil; Prawn and Chili Samble which consisted of tiger prawns tossed in a pan with crushed garlic and chopped chilli, perfumed with a light soy-sweet chilli sauce. Deserts were a selection of light Homemade Ice-creams garnished with fresh fruits and a more substantial Warm Bitter Chocolate Tartlet which was described as"heavenly"! This was prepared by Michael O'Meara and his team who passionetly believe that people eat with their eyes - first! And so, it was "Presented in a very dramatic manner that adds to the whole sense of a dining experience rather than simply a meal out"and "Each dish is simply a work of ART"!

Georgina Cambell -"Oscars is an extraordinary restaurant with a pleasantly decadent atmosphere and lovely staff that are interested and attentive"..... and "expressive confident cooking that stands-out in Galway"
