Diwali in Dublin

Great little restaurant with lovely food. Busy, warm atmosphere. Friendly staff. Suni was great!

Amazing food, great service! The Butter chicken was exceptional.

This is what curry houses should be like with great food and attentove service. Would recommend the mango lassi, chicken biryani, butter chicken and the GOC (Garlic, Onion & coriander) Naan bread.

I have eaten here for lunch 100 times at least. Their Mo-Mo dish is one of the best of any cuisine in the city .

★★★★★ If I could give 6 stars, I would — this place is a hidden treasure! Forget the 4.5 stars shown on Google — seriously, what’s going on here? Diwali Indian Restaurant deserves a solid 6 out of 5. This is hands down one of the best Indian meals I’ve had in Ireland — and I don’t say that lightly. Yes, the décor is traditionally 80’s Indian — and thank God for that! Some folks might expect “modern minimalism,” but if you’re put off by decor, you need to get a grip on your senses. This place feels like India, and that’s exactly what makes it special. The food is phenomenal — rich, spicy, fragrant, and exactly what you’d hope for when craving a proper Asian feast. Every dish bursts with real, layered flavour. No shortcuts, no watered-down nonsense — just beautifully cooked, authentic Indian food. The staff are fantastic — warm, courteous, and genuinely interested in making sure you enjoy the experience. You’re not just eating; you’re being hosted — and that makes a difference. And yes, it’s spotlessly clean — from the floors to the bathrooms to the spotless cutlery. If you’ve scrolled past this place because of the rating, stop. Go. Order. Eat. And leave your own 5-star review — because Diwali deserves better than 4.5 stars. This is a real restaurant with real soul. And they give you a cheeky wee dram on the house ❤️

sooo delicious! the servers were very attentive and our plates were licked clean!

Excellent food and excellent staff.

Always is a pleasure to eat at Diwali . We never went wrong with this place . All the staff are very welcoming and great , and we had the luck to be served for Suni most of the time and she is so kind and great !!!

Disfrutamos de un par de currys muy sabrosos con arroz y nan servido por personal amable y servicial. Los popodams y chutneys de cortesía siempre son una ventaja, sin embargo, el entrante de Bhaji carecía de yogur de menta... Dicho esto el evento principal fue muy bueno , la cantidad correcta y la fuerza correcta . De hecho, optamos por la oferta de pre-teatro que ofrecía una buena selección de canales variados a un precio razonable. Sin duda volvería.

Nel centro di Dublino ottimo ristorante indiano. Prenotato on-line sul sito del ristorante dall'albergo poco distante. Facilmente raggiungibile a piedi dal centro di Dublino. Ambiente caldo, accogliente, forse un po' rumoroso (tutti i tavoli occupati). Posto pulito, ben arieggiato Cibo indio-nepalese ottimo. Porzioni abbondanti. Personale simpatico. Spendida ragazza nepalese con lunghi capelli neri sorridente, empatica e gentilissima nel dare consigli sul cibo. Disponibilità assoluta di tutto il personale. Conto giusto nel rapporto qualità-prezzo. Assolutamente da tornare.
