Reviews
❝The Quality ❞
Dining in the Lighthouse Restaurant was the highlight of our visit. The quality of food and service were exceptional during our stay.
❝Fingal Itself Is Beautiful ❞
Fingal itself is beautiful, grand and welcoming, but this is matched and exceeded by the supreme level of personable, professional service we received from every member of the team. The quality of the food/beverage was also very high.
❝Make You Feel Welcome❞
They go out of your way to make you feel welcome. For example, I do not drink alcohol. My husband had the wine flight. They invented a mocktail for every course to match my food. A lovely touch. Food was superb and beautifully presented.
