This weekend, we drove from Dublin to Letterkenny for the rally and found this Shangrila Chinese restaurant on Google. The unique decor caught our eye as soon as we walked in. For starters, we ordered Salt and Pepper Tofu, Barbecued Ribs, and Salt Chilli Chicken. The main courses included Classic Amber Fried Chicken, King Prawns Pad Thai Noodles, and a Duck Hot Pot. I’m quite picky about food, but when the dishes arrived and I took the first bite, I instantly tasted something special—the authentic Chinese flavors were in the rich sauces and ingredients, showing the chef’s superb cooking skills. Every dish was made with fresh ingredients, creating delicious flavors.
I asked the server to introduce me to the chef to shake his hand and say thanks. Though the chef didn’t understand much English, the server helped translate. I learned he has 28 years of cooking experience, working in famous hotels in Beijing, China, and Singapore. No wonder the Chinese food here is so authentic—it’s a sign of his professional expertise. If you’re passing through Letterkenny, do give it a try! The staff are super friendly, and the high-end decor is hard to find even in Dublin. The whole dining experience was very enjoyable.
To the owner and staff: May everything go well for you, and keep sharing this delicious food! Thank you so much for the amazing dinner—Grazie mille!
Had a great meal here tonight, just picked it random from a Google search. Interesting menu, mix of Chinese and Southeast Asian.
Staff very welcoming and the decor and table settings are more upmarket than your usual Chinese restaurant.
