Sweet Besil Chinise & Thai Rest in Dublin

Nice staff and even better food

Wonderful experience at the newly rebranded Sweet Basil (now Kung pao panda) today - the service was excellent (very quick and all staff extremely welcoming and friendly) and the food was absolutely delicious. I had chicken chow mein medium spice, the chicken was succulent and the medium spice sauce had a subtle kick which really enhanced the noodles. Very generous portion size, very reasonable price and most importantly super tasty - I highly recommend the restaurant, staff and food and I look forward to my next visit!

Customer service at sweet basil is amazing, despite the shop seeming busy, the lady at the front was able to take the time to guide me in ordering something splendid, asking all the right questions to help me order the right thing. I ended up getting the Singaporean fried rice with chilli oil. The shop seems to be under renovation and the interior looks very attractive. Will definitely be returning to order more things soon!

Food was lovely. I would buy from here again

best chinese takeaway ever perfect customer service they actually read the instruction and make the dish exactly how you want it proper authentic chinese with fresh high quality ingredients (super tasty like you can tell food was prepared with care in a clean organized kitchen) will definitely order again

Delicious chinese food, authentic and flavorful. This place is a must try otherwise you are missing out. Food and service is 10/10 highly recommended place for Chinese food.

singapore vermicelli a bit oily but otherwise good

Ordered for takeaway delivery. Portion size is good, food is cooked through and hot. Ordered staple foods: Chicken Fried Rice (extra chicken), Spring Rolls and Chinese Curry Sauce. It unfortunately does not taste like typical Chinese takeaway food. The spring rolls tasted mainly of potato which I do not like and the Chinese curry sauce made my dish taste more like an Indian takeaway. I enjoy Indian food but this is not what I was expecting. Delivery handled by restaurant and only 5 mins after estimate so good time. Unfortunately won't be coming again as it's not the taste I'm after.

I’ve been eating Mr Chen’s food for over 10 years, and to my surprise, he’s now the chef here at Sweet Basil Chinese — no wonder the food is this good. Everything we ordered was packed with flavour and tasted really fresh. You can tell they’re not cutting corners. The restaurant itself looks brand new — clean, modern and nicely done up. The new owner clearly cares about the experience. Service was honestly spot on — friendly, fast and genuinely welcoming. If you’re after proper Chinese food that’s halal and actually tastes authentic, this place is 100% worth checking out. Definitely coming back.
