Jade Palace in Carrigaline

18/03/2025: This used to be my favourite Indian restaurant, but it’s not up to scratch anymore. One staff member seemed to appreciate my custom, but the other was less interested. The door to the kitchen was propped open with a chair and the resulting din could easily have been a row, so loud were the voices. It didn’t seem to occur to the staff that customers might like to enjoy their meal in peaceful surroundings, especially at the prices they charge: 1 king prawn jalfrezi (4 prawns of which 1 was mushy) 1 boiled rice 1 chilli & coriander naan (too thick and dry - it lacked that just made quality completely) 1 33cl Cobra beer. €34.20 Why do Indian restaurants charge extra for rice AND for naan. Surely one should be included, like in Chinese establishments. I’m taking a break from Spice.

26/02/2025: Restaurant is in a great location and for the area, the prices are relative (€200 for 6 people without starters/dessert, but with wine) Pretty, modern and well kept. Staff aren’t so attentive or easy to communicate with, nonetheless polite and friendly. Food was okay - well presented and served hot. The naan was great but curry itself was average. Appreciated the complimentary chocolate.
