No reservation, rolled up just after 6, to avail of the early bird,and were offered a table until 8:45. I think we were lucky though as we saw quite a few casual callers declined. We both had mussels in a Provencal sauce which looked more like a thick tomato soup but was very tasty. My wife had the Tiger Prawns in the coconut milk sauce served with rice. she wasn't able to finish the rice as the main dish was quite filling, I ordered hake but it was off this evening, quite a run on it we were told, so I settled for the seafood cassoulet which I had eaten in the past. Loads of salmon with some flakes of white fish breadcrumbed and topped with mash. Very tasty too. We had a glass of Sauvingnon Blanc apiece and passed on desserts and coffee. Total €53 and a few cent.

Were pleased at first with both the service and the menu offerings. Even though it was early for lunch, the hostess told us though they were out of one of the best sounding fresh fish options, that she had just acquainted us with minutes before. We ordered from the small but just fine, fresh seafood menu and the dishes were served up quickly. The fresh cod (mine) was delicious and very well prepared, but my partner was immediately very disappointed in her dish as she had pointedly asked the waiter for the LARGE-type fresh prawns we had seen in all the fish markets lining the street (when she asked about the menu offerings and he suggested her dish.) Her " tiger prawns" were tiny shrimp, not many of them at that, and were completely covered in a heavy Thai type sauce over rice, not at all as she expected, and when we tried to explain what she had wanted , and to request a different dish, the waiter sniffed at us and said it "would take twenty- five minutes more" ( to get another dish). Since we had watched all others around us get their food in about fifteen minutes, as we had , we felt the "punishing", so shared my cod dish and left, Very pretty place, had some great fish I think , a nice setting and comfortable elegance- just snippy service. He actually argued that they WERE Tiger prawns even if they were small ones, so she should just accept the dish. Would not go back, in spite of the delicious cod, I am afraid.

We were handed menus promptly and also notified off the nights specials. My starter was a fantastic tomato, aubergine and mozzarella bake that any restaurant would proud of. For a main i had the pasta which again was full of flavour but portion wise was probably enough for two. My two friends both enjoyed fish courses and one was very impressed the muscles as a starter. The only complaint if any was that it seemed a bit expensive as the meal was only 15 euro cheaper than the night before with all eating starters and mains with one shared dessert. But the previous night we had two bottles of wine opposed to tonights one. That said i will be heading back out again for that starter for definite.

We went to Howth in the hope of sampling some good seafood and we were not dissapointed. There was a good selection - mains included sea bass, hake,cod but also lots for the meat lover - with lamb, beef and chicken featuring on the menu. For starters we has a delicious deep fried brie cheese and a fish cake. Both dishes were excellent. Perfectly served with lovely side salads. For mains we went for the cod with a caper butter sacue. This was served with mash potatoe - a simple dish but really delicious! Likewise the fish cassoulet that hubbie ordered, got full marks. A side dish of veggie was mixed pepper/ onion and corgette. We finished with choc fudge cake and a baileys and choc cheesecake, seleceted from the blackboard of deserts. Throughout the meal the staff were pleasent and helpful. The bill didn't break the bank at under 70 euro for 3 courses (no drinks though except coffee). At a time when value for money is to the fore in most peoples minds, Deep certainly has got it right - great food, excellent service and good value for money! We will be back!

Wings were nice, but tasted a tad old, calamari was nice but i suspect frozen, his steak was overcooked and our chips never arrived, even after prompting staff. Fish and chips were nice. Lots of other great restaurants on the pier so until it improves we'll put deep on our reject list. Lots of room for improvement. I might be underscoring atmosphere as it was a wednesday and the place was empty apart from one other couple. But we felt because it was very quiet the food and service should've been far better.

The food was tasty and made with a lot of care. The one and only thing that put me off my dinner was the arrogant and pretentious manager that threw me my food.I would have had better service in a drive through.If its good food you want without the service then deep is for you,but if you want the whole experions then avoid the place. hbb (Foodie) says:I disagree about the manager being rude. Although our experience left a bad taste, the manager, even though they forgot things we ordered, did try her best to over compensate and was extremely apologetic. We found the food let the place down, not the staff.
