Coriander is the best Indian restaurant I’ve found in Cork—maybe even in all of Ireland. The food is excellent, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan choices: the Chana Puri and Okra mains, along with the house-special aloo potatoes and cauliflower sides, are all vegan and bursting with flavour. The staff are lovely, offering poppadoms and chutney while you wait and checking in throughout the meal. There’s a good wine list, a warm atmosphere, and practical perks too—a taxi rank right outside in the evenings and a bus stop directly across the street.

We recently visited Coriander, Douglas and here’s the what we ordered.
Starters:
1. Paneer Tikka: Good seasoning, but very hard paneer. Chutney was okay, but not the best.
2. Samosa chaat: It was good.
Main course:
1. Dal makhani: A lot of people loke Coriander’s dal makhani and it has been my favourite too. But this time, it wasn’t the best in taste, the spices were less, I am not sure what was missing but something was.
2. Paneer lababdar: It wasn’t paneer lababdar for sure. There were grilled paneer cubes, which lababdar always uses normal paneer. As was the case of the starter, the paneer was too hard to eat.
There were big chunks of onion and capsicum, which are generally put in Kadhai paneer. My mood dipped after eating this paneer gravy dish.
Butter naan: Not good as per expectations. It was thick, not cooked properly.
I have been to Coriander previously as well and the food was amazing (few months back). But this time it was totally different and dissatisfying.
Service was normal as usual, could always be better.

Ok, I’m sure the food is great if I would enjoy spicy food. But hey, it’s an Indian restaurant. And the lassi was amazing 🤩

My favorite takeaway in Cork. The chana masala is my favorite dish. Lamb Rogan Josh and Butter Chicken are also lovely. Friendly staff too.

Disfrutamos de una comida familiar aquí. El cordero era suave y estaba bien preparado; tenía un vindaloo, que tenía una patada, pero no picadura en la cola más tarde en la noche... lo que mi esposa estaba complacida.
Recomendaría este restaurante, aunque un miembro más del personal habría ayudado a acelerar el proceso.
