Raj Gaylord Indian Restaurant
Cork
26/05/2025: Best Indian we ever had. I've eaten Indian food in Birmingham, UK where they believe they are the kings of Indian food. This place could teach them lessons. Keep up the good food!
19/05/2025: Absolutely vile experience — avoid this place like the plague
Went to Rajgaylord expecting decent Indian food. Instead, got served a dish garnished with a long strand on the plate. Naturally, I told the man at the till I wasn’t going to pay for that dish, but said I’d pay for the rest.
Apparently not.
The man behind the counter accused me or my partner of putting the hair in the food ourselves. Instead of apologising or handling the situation professionally, he got aggressive, defensive, and rude. Told us we were barred from ever coming back — like that was some kind of punishment. After being treated like that and being served someone’s head garnish, there’s zero chance we’d ever return anyway.
The server didn’t care that there was hair in the food, she offered to replace, but why would I want to eat the same dish again after this. She just shrugged it off like it was totally normal.
Avoid this place at all costs. Food hygiene is questionable, customer service is nonexistent, and the management is downright hostile.
If you want to get insulted and eat someone else’s hair, this is your place. Otherwise, steer clear.

Was there the other night and put 26 on 20 and it hit but the girl gave me back 25 chip and left 1 euro chip on the number and said the word 25. i didnt understand what she meant so i was about to ask and the ball was spinning and the 20 hit and I was told that I was told but it was confeusing.
after a while i waited in confeusion and asked the table in charge guy and he was just rude and said he couldnt do anything yet what they should have done was paid 25 on the number and said well give you back the 1 euro chip as you could only bet 26 which i found out after.
staff were rude and id avoid the place if you want to be robbed.

Fudi&More
Cork
15/04/2025: Probably the best takeout food I’ve had in Cork. It tasted healthy and was just 10/10. Beats the competition I’ve had by miles.
11/02/2025: Got take away here a few times for collection, always quick and the quality of the food is always nice.
You have the usual take away staple items but also there are healthy options as well, incl . vegan and vegetarian items

Lantern House
Blarney
30/03/2025: Spent nearly 40 euros on a takeaway only for it to come over an hour late . My wifes dish was dried out and no joke completely unedible. My own dish .just because I asked for no veg I got like 4 pieces of chicken in a half portion of the chicken curry dish .. . Honestly will never order from there ever again.
It's an honest review
21/02/2025: A fabulous restaurant the reviews weren’t lying when they gave it 4.3stars. Well maybe they were because I’d give it 5 stars but maybe that was because by chance we had the early bird menu and talk about value for money. Highly recommended

Dinos
Cork
04/05/2025: Food used to be better. Had not been for about a year or so and noticed food was not at previous quality. No recycling in store either. Piry as we try to support local as much as we can. The place was clean and the staff were pleasant.
09/04/2025: Quality of the food is garbage. The fried chicken is tough and overcooked. Don’t even get me started on the chips. Undercooked and below average. The whole meal cost me €16 as well. What a waste…

O'Reilly's Fish & Chips
Cork
29/05/2025: Snack, no dining in.
The two servers we dealt with made an effort to understand us despite their accents and our limited English.
The fish & chips are delicious, I recommend them.
2 adults - 2 children / around €50 with a drink.
20/05/2025: Fish and chip take away and dine in with a few tables. What’s not to like.

JJ Walsh's
Cork
11/05/2025: We loved coming here to listen to live music and drink beer. Impressive how the bar suddenly fills up from 10:30 p.m., especially on Thursday evenings!
Very good atmosphere, to do!
20/04/2025: The perfect Irish pub feeling!
First time in Ireland, not our last!!

Great Wall Chinese Restaurant
Cork
19/04/2025: Absolutely loved this place, possible the best satay sauce I’ve had. I’m a big lad and couldn’t finish the portion they gave It’s like they put 3 chickens in there. I don’t live near Blackpool but I will likely consider making this my main Chinese. Very happy
05/04/2025: I went here for the first time recently and it made a very good first impression! The service was prompt, the food was lovely, the staff were friendly, the waiting area was clean, and the portions were generous. Good work :)

Aye
Cork
26/05/2025: Please never go to bottomless brunch in this establishment. They must have locked all seasonings in a cupboard and replaced the chicken with cardboard. It was culinary terrorism. Staff were rude but the DJ played good tunes.
15/03/2025: Worst service I’ve ever experienced in Cork. Had booked and waited 45 minutes to be even offered water. We ended up leaving to go somewhere else and weren’t even offered an apology. Emailed to explain our issue and never received a response so will never return. I’m sure the food is good but if it’s a busy weekend absolutely go somewhere else because this place does not deserve your business.

Starbucks
Cork
17/04/2025: Outstanding service and very friendly workers all you want see, people full of energy and the customers not wanting to much time it’s like a production line never stop or if something wrong happens only with machines a part of that Starbucks keeps rolling, Starbucks franchise is one of the best you can get is half away for success.
13/04/2025: I purchased a Pike and Cinnamon Roll both were terrible. The cinnamon roll was over heated making it rubber like and had no cinnamon flavor. The coffee was made fresh but ended up being just warm after I added milk (there was no half and half or cream).

Poppa Bills Ballypehane
Cork
20/03/2025: by far my favorite take away,out of four take aways in an area where old people go to die,like salmon,there's usually Mammy's and Granny's that force feed,yet all do well,each has its own niche,but Papas is run by the sweetest people,the food is amazing,I went in to drop off sweets last night,it's nice to be nice,the Chef asked me why I hadn't ordered my food for a while,it's been a few months,I'm renovating my house,I wouldn't eat at my place at the moment...he knew what I ordered,so getting the fantastic Italian Inferno pizza later,I'll sit on the wall,I couldn't recommend more.
21/01/2025: Dinner box was mostly bones , very little chicken 🍗
Chips were practically raw
Absolutely vile 🤢🤮

Apache Pizza
Cork
08/06/2025: Go to place for good pizza. They have amazing options of pizza and you can customize your pizzas as well. You should order double deal pizza which has 2 large pizza at a stealing price. Good for a big gathering party.
11/05/2025: Lovely people :). Accidentally ordered the wrong size and they sorted it no problem! Received the wrong pizza by accident and they sent a replacement in under 20 mins. :)

Mizzoni's Pizza
Cork
19/02/2025: Rang up and ordered a pizza for 10 as I had guests arriving. It came at 9 with no guests. I explained it was 10 and was told I had to take it anyway. We rang the manager and he said he would bring hot food at 10. No food arrived, this is really bad customer service.
18/02/2025: It's a take away place. Always friendly service, good food
