Kakilang in Dublin

17/03/2026: We have eaten in Mao twice in the last two weeks, and each visit has been a joy. We are used to going to Musashi and were hoping it would be on par as Mao is more convenient for us. It exceeded our expectations. The meat (duck, beef, prawn, and chicken) was so flavoursome and cooked to perfection; the vegetables were so fresh; and the portion sizes were great (almost too good, as we couldn't fit in a dessert). The atmosphere was relaxed (perfect for families), and there is a good distance between tables, so noise or overbearing conversations aren't an issue. The staff were also so nice and accommodating. We'll definitely be visiting more regularly. Well done to all staff.

17/03/2026: Amazing food, even better service! ​Had a brilliant lunch at Mao recently. The ambiance is super cozy yet classy. We tucked into spring rolls, fries, Tofu Pad Thai, and a rich Thai Red Curry-all of which were 10/10. ​The real highlight, though, was the staff. They are so polite and truly make the experience special. Plus, parking is a breeze in Stillorgan Village. I’ll definitely be back!
