The Orient in Maynooth

Waiter was so nice, food was great, definitely recommend!

Food is delicious! We tried the sushi platter and it was great. Staff is friendly and the place has very nice atmosphere. Will come back for sure!

Excellent service, excellent service. Highly recommend.

Honestly, I was very pleasantly impressed by this Asian restaurant. It’s definitely one of those places you want to come back to. The interior is beautiful — minimalist, stylish, and thoughtfully designed in deep red/burgundy and grey tones. Everything was very clean and well maintained, which immediately creates a nice atmosphere. The staff deserve special praise. They were extremely polite, calm, and attentive throughout the visit. They checked in to make sure everything was okay and made us feel very welcome. I also really appreciated that they offered cutlery (knife and fork) in addition to chopsticks — such a thoughtful touch for guests who prefer an alternative. The sushi with smoked salmon and cream cheese was very tasty, and the traditional miso soup was warm and comforting. Overall, a lovely experience. The team absolutely deserves great reviews — and good tips 😉

One of our favourite places to eat, we go about 4-5 times per year. The reason I've dropped a star is because we received a voucher for €150 and decided to use on Valentines day. The bill came to €101+ and when presenting the voucher we were told that it could only be used in one sitting. It is written in small writing on the voucher but we didn't see it and the person who purchased wasn't told either. As a result we had to accept a bottle of wine and crackers. The wine is served in the restaurant at €43.( €11. 50 in off licence ). When I asked why the vouchers were not sold in say €50 increments I didn't get any answer. Disappointing to say the least as in other restaurants we were given our remaining credit in another voucher. A warning if buying vouchers for a considerable amount, make sure you split them up.

Nice place, has an inhouse Asia market (though the offerings are slim compared to dedicated places) The food we ordered was mediocre in quality but high in price. For a group gathering it's good, but if you're looking for price to quality look elsewhere.

Service was a little slow but I cannot fault the overall experience . Staff were very friendly And food was absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend. We will be back .

I usually love the Orient and when done right their spice bags are amazing, but twice now I've ordered a tofu spice with extra veg and received no veg at all. It's annoying as they charge extra for extra veg - which I don't mind when they do give you a lot, but not when they give you none. The veg is what makes the spice bags tasty :(

Amazing place love it great food kind people

Great place, great atmosphere, very nice food, staff is lovely and treat you with utmost respect. Would recommend 👍🏼👍🏼
