A very enjoyable evening with great service from Rose and delicious food & wine. Menu seemed to be a little more limited than previous visits, especially GF options, but otherwise excellent. Looking forward to returning many times!

Food and service was fantastic, we were lucky enough to be there on a night Kiera was playing, she was fantastic and set the tone beautifully for the restaurant. It was overall a great night and I would highly recommend.

About the restaurant
With an emphasis on local excellence and seasonality, Sika offers the best of Irish contemporary cooking against a spectacular backdrop of Wicklow's hills and mountains. From the rich bounty of our seas and our fields, from the skilled hands of artisan producers and craft suppliers, Ireland's fresh food credentials are world renowned. Such superb raw materials inspire the best of our chefs. So at Sika you'll find well-loved classic dishes deliciously prepared and executed with a distinctively modern twist.

The space is as appetising as the menu. Situated on the third floor of the Hotel, Sika's dramatic floor-to-ceiling glass windows take full advantage of the breath-taking views of the Sugar Loaf Mountain.

There is no better place to soak up the sunshine and enjoy the views of the Sugar Loaf Mountain as the weather gets warmer, as Sika Terrace is open for all day dining during the summer months.

Please note that the restaurant is an adult-only area from 8:00pm nightly.

One of the best experiences we have had as a couple in a long time. Food was great but the pace, setting and service was 10/10 and meant that we had a real treat!

We had our 2nd delicious early supper meal recently. As well as 3 courses, the restaurant gave complimentary tasting menu type of treats, which added to the uniqueness of our meal. The management were very courteous to our group and very helpful with discussing the menu. We look forward to returning there.
