The best restaurants

05/02/2026: Food was very nice but the blonde lady behind the counter is extremely rude and refused to accommodate my allergen request as it was ‘a big hassle’ the lady was very rude from my arrival to the restaurant until me leaving. She was very nosy and kept asking personal questions that made me very uncomfortable and upset. This behaviour shouldn’t be the case in Mulan at all because the food is very nice but it’s just this one member of the team ruining the vibe and atmosphere of the restaurant to suit her own agenda. Once again the food was nice it was just the encounter with this staff that has put me off ever visiting here again

03/02/2026: The spicy bag is not like it used to be, the chips and chicken are dry and stale. The delivery is always late and forgetting the drinks, I understand a once off but this is consistent now

15/03/2026: Zweton. CASTLETROY Restaurant. Family of 4, Mother's day treat, 6.00pm. We had to ask twice for our order to be taken. Starters came out in good enough time. After a long wait there was no sign of our main courses. When I asked about our order, the reply I got was "yeah yeah it's coming". A further 15 minutes I had to go to the reception area and I was gestured that they were coming. Then.....4 bowls of rice and 2 main courses arrive. After another 15 minutes, the 2 other mains hadn't arrived. As I got up to enquire, the 2 remaining mains were brought out. I mentioned that the 2 people who had received theirs had almost finished. The waiter/manager (I presume) basically said we are very busy, sorry. I replied fair enough but we would all like to have eaten our meals together. Quite agitated he replied "Ive already apologised, do you still want your food?". Yes, we ate our food but the evening was ruined...and paid full price. I wont be going back to the Castletroy Restaurant in a hurry.

15/03/2026: Drove half an hour to the location , have ordered multiple times before , have had sit down meals multiple times before also,rang twice for collection and no answer , got there at 8:20pm and lady at desk told me I couldn’t order they are closed as a “special day” , this was advertised nowhere , really unprofessional for people travelling in to order and they did not seen apologetic . After years of attending I won’t be attending again .

28/12/2025: Fish had thick, very chewy batter, the inside batter was still raw and slimy and fish was mushy. Special treat for the kids was ruined as their chips were so super salty (with salt clumps) they couldn't eat it and I spent dinner time have to wipe the salt off. Rest of family said Pizza was okay but nothing special and the veggie burger was tasteless. Kebab was all salad and very little meat. Really disappointing unfortunately...

30/11/2025: Taco chips were watery and the cheese on top tasted cheap, burger had a slice of plastic cheese thrown on it and the person who got the burger said it was so dry. Another person got the steak sub and said it was watery, flavourless and soggy

16/02/2026: ML Dore Nostalgia Cafe is an absolutely delightful café! The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making the visit feel warm and personal. The pastries and sweets are simply delicious — fresh, beautifully presented, and perfect for satisfying any sweet craving. The café is cozy and well-kept, and a restroom is conveniently available for customers. Everything about the experience, from the attentive service to the quality of the treats, makes it a perfect spot for a relaxing coffee or dessert break. We were thoroughly impressed and will definitely be returning. Highly recommended! 🍰☕

08/02/2026: I was unpleasantly surprised by the slowness of the staff and the quality of the food. I have never had such a bad lunch anywhere else.

05/12/2025: Chicken came pink when i called up to say to them they told me they cant do anything as they just closed 🤮

09/02/2026: Best Chinese in the Santry area by a mile. Ordered well over 100 times and was only disappointed once. Foods always flavorful and portions are massive. Bit pricy, but I don’t mind paying for the quality. Keep it up

02/02/2026: I have been ordering from this gourmet kitchen for quite some time and only recently I placed an order of beef curry and rice unfortunately when I Came home all I got was curry sauce and onions no beef. I ordered again a few weeks later beef curry and rice and crisp shredded chicken and chips they tried to over charge me when the order should be 24e they asked for 33e I only paid 24e. I will not be ordering from gourmet kitchen again very disappointed with the service

12/12/2025: Like all places in Carrick starts off well, then quality just goes down hill so quickly. Bought 3 spice bag yesterday, all 3 had stale tasting chicken and chips that tasted like the day before leftover thrown back in the oil and on top of that all 3 bag were so bland had no taste no flavor no seasoning no veg just stale old breaded chicken and chips. DISAPPOINTING. NEVER AGAIN

21/11/2025: Really let down. Id go weekly to chungs and had been really happy. But last night u went and it's made me not want to go back. I asked the gentleman about something they made before he said yes no problem a young girl took my order and kept rushing and giving me my total cost and I hadn't even finished my order. Even the lady waiting behind commented I finally finished ordering and paid but I could understand how the order cost so much. I waited in the car and went to collect my order. I asked if she could check my order was all there and correct as before it had been wrong so now I always check before I leave. She said yes but didn't even check. So I checked myself to find a shot glass amount of curry sauce in a tub when I had ordered a large. I asked the gentleman then please could he check the price and I was 100% over charged. I had paid with my phone. And I was right €12 over charged. Where he then told me he refund the full amount then take for it again. I told him he cant as I dont gave the amount on that card to pay a second time as refunds take a few days to come back into my bank. He was very rude and almost blaming me for there mistakes. I said cant u just do a €12 refund and shouting no no I cant very pi**y tone of voice. I then told him I dont have the card ull just have to give me it in cash then. Which in the end he did. I actually felt sorry for the young girl who was obviously getting trained in and had no experience i had reasured her it happens well sort it but the gentleman was very rude to her. The food wasn't great either salt and chilli chips were burnt and the tub of rice was only id say a half portion. Really disappointed as I had previously enjoyed going to chungs but this has put me off.

17/01/2026: How can you go wrong with a bag of chips? Very easily as I found out tonight. They wern't hot, felt semi-cooked/pre-cooked, infact just bloody awful & after an hour of eating them I was really sick. Do yourself a favour & avoid this place at all costs. 🤮
