Really enjoyed our meal at Red Torch Ginger in Maynooth. The food was full of flavour, nicely presented and the portions were generous. The crispy tofu rice dish was especially good, with a nice mix of textures, and the pancakes were a great side to share. Everything arrived hot and fresh.
The atmosphere was relaxed and the service was friendly. A very solid choice in Maynooth if you’re looking for Asian food, and I’d happily come back again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’ve been a regular customer at Red Torch Ginger and have always really enjoyed the food, cocktails and service, so unfortunately my most recent visit was disappointing. I ordered the sea bass & lime from the specials menu, but the battered fish was severely overcooked and the vegetables were hard and undercooked. The accompanying sauce was also extremely spicy, which wasn’t clear when ordering, and I left most of the dish.
I contacted management privately because I genuinely like the restaurant and wanted to give them the opportunity to address it. They acknowledged that the fish was overcooked, although I was disappointed that there wasn’t more recognition of the other issues I raised.
Hopefully this was just an off night, as I’ve had much better experiences here previously.

A decent local restaurant, but authentic Thai cuisine? No. Authentic Southeast Asian cuisine? Also no.
The service, food and ambience all felt somewhat forced together rather than forming a coherent dining experience. It may work as a casual local option, but it did not deliver the authenticity or distinctive flavours I expected.

Red Torch Ginger is located above McMahons Gastrobar in the heart of Maynooth town. In short this is a wonderful place to dine out with friends, family or just just go in for a solo treat, you won't be disappointed 😊 My friend and I ate here recently and found it to be a lovely experience. The staff were very friendly and attentive without being intrusive, the food was incredibly tasty and the ambience is very relaxing, friendly and warm. We didn't feel any pressure to leave at any stage. While not cheap it is very reasonable and I would have no hesitation in coming back again. Highly recommended 😊
