The best restaurants in Dublin

17/03/2026: Ordered snack box and battered sausage. Chips were reheated, chicken was as dry, and battered sausage was two mini sausages. Absolutely disgusting, most of it went into the bin. Lots more better chippers around.

17/03/2026: very tradition macari’s. devoured the whole take away

07/07/2026: Only scored low on food cause they stopped doing acai bowls and now theres no point ordering from them :( they used to be amazing and always packaged perfectly. Another place bites the dust

20/05/2026: Can only comment on delivery as I've never ordered instore. Genuinely my favourite acai bowl in Dublin and I enjoy the coffee. The granola is always crunchy, they dont skimp on the peanut butter and the package the items well.

13/03/2026: On 23/02 at about 8.30pm my adult daughter purchased a chicken spicebag with sweet and sour sauce at Millenium 2 Castleknock. Her previous meal had been lunch at 1pm on the same day. At about 11.30pm she was violently ill with projectile vomiting, severe stomach pain, diarrhea and cold sweats which lasted for several hours. Although she was not fully recovered the next day, the main symptoms had eased. We have reported the matter to the relevant authorities. Please draw your own conclusions, and proceed with caution.

14/06/2026: Every single time any order take ages, even if it's ready will wait at hot counter for at least 5 minutes to be picked and given to the customer.

10/06/2026: The food is very fresh and hot and the staff are very Friendly and humble all the time

18/06/2026: Great value for money and Nicest rice around , chicken balls great size , Curry Sauce extra spicy is actually spicy unlike most around, Service great and delivery never Long 👌 10/10

17/06/2026: Ordered in St James hospital , spice bag was dry & had plenty of chips instead of chicken . It used to be good , lost the quality recently . I wouldn’t buy & recommend to any one

01/07/2026: The food was fresh, tasty, and served quickly. Customer service was good, specially the girl serving us was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful.

19/06/2026: Great takeaway, very friendly staff

22/06/2026: This place is filthy, not to mention the bathrooms 😵‍💫🤮🤢 I went because it was the only place open at 10 pm. I wouldn't go back.

13/06/2026: Ordered a cup of tap water with my nuggets. Was really looking forward to quenching my thirst. They gave me a cup of HOT water with a three solitary ice cubes. I told them about their mistake. Instead of using the cold water tap, the enlightened staff instead topped it up with three more ice cubes, and for extra flavour they included a human hair. I emerged from the O'Connell street McDonald's a changed man.

13/05/2026: I had an incredibly disappointing experience at this restaurant today with my wife and 4-year-old son. We arrived around 4:30 PM and were told they would open in 5 minutes. We were happy to wait and returned 20 minutes later. After being seated and waiting another 10 minutes, we ordered two keema naan, a chicken saag, and a raita. We weren’t looking for a massive feast, just a pleasant family meal. A few minutes after taking the order, the waiter returned stating his manager insisted we order at least one more side dish or they would not serve us. When we explained we weren't hungry enough for more food, they flat-out refused to take our order. It is baffling that a business would turn away a family with a young child over a forced "minimum side dish" rule that was never mentioned upfront. To be treated this way after waiting patiently for them to open is completely unprofessional and unwelcoming. If you are looking for hospitality or a stress-free family dinner, I would suggest looking elsewhere in Tallaght.

04/05/2026: Great food, attentive service, and a relaxed atmosphere that actually makes the meal worth the money.

15/03/2026: Spice bag is very disappointing. Not a vegetable in site, and the few bits of chicken are horribly chewy.

13/02/2026: Waiting over an hour and 15 minutes at this time, not , paying top price, trying to cancel order and go to bed at this stage

25/07/2026: I can see why they are famous for their spicebags 👌

16/07/2026: Waited 2 hours for food to be ordered, mad stuff tbh. Don't order the spicy chicken balls (10), there's only 8 halves in the portion (so 4 chicken balls....). Spice bag was good but not as good as before (2015 era).

03/07/2026: Thank you for doing a gluten free meal for one of my guests and advice on what she could get from menu. Food was fab

02/07/2026: My food arrived cold and I mean cold it took 1 hour 20 minutes to arrive I was told when I complained nothing to do with our service will never ever use them again if u pay 58euro for food and I'm not joking u should get a proper service please don't use this Chinese it's not Chinese food it's a frustration to Chinese food 🤣🤣🤣🤣can't emphasis enough please don't order any more food out of this place you're better off finding crap on the ground plenty of more places to order from around Rathfarnham just saying you will be very disappointed with the quality of food and service hope you find this useful.Just to add I ordered plenty of times and it arrived late more or often than not 👎👎👎my friend rang me lives in willbrook told me it took 1 hour 40 minutes for delivery omg come on it's a joke 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 why are people ordering from this place it's your choice if do but don't tell me I didn't warn you so be happy what you get 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

01/08/2026: Absolutely delicious Caesar salads and incredible service! Melissa is such an angel, so helpful and caring! Melissa and her manager made sure all of our questions were answered and dietary requirements were met! Thank you for your care and the delicious food! We will be back and recommending to everyone!

30/07/2026: Today me and my friends went to esquire’s in the square Tallaght. We spent 13 euro on kids pancakes . When our order was dropped off at our table they were completely different pancakes . They were the dunnes mini pancakes, they make me feel very sick and I was uninformed they had changed the pancakes . If they had said anything I would have been completely fine and ordered something different, we then tried to get a member of staff’s attention to ask if they had definitely changed the pancakes we were ignored multiple times and had made eye contact with staff members they had indeed seen us but didn’t acknowledged us , about half an hour later a staff member came over saying they had changed them , I hate to complain and I’m sorry that I am but I felt really upset about the situation in a whole . Kind regards 😊

20/07/2026: Absolute weirdo working in the kiosk ignored me and my partner. Served his friend(young girl)instead of us despite us being at the counter and queued up. Do I need to be a young female to get served first or his friend? Will spend my money elsewhere and I normally come here 5 times a week. Last time I will ever be a patron of butlers or recommend it. 18:25 Monday 20th July

20/07/2026: Rude staff no training. Let people they know skip the queue ahead of customers that were waiting before her

04/07/2026: Chicken tasted incredibly stale

25/05/2026: Have ordered here a few times with my brother. The food is great and tasty. The staff are also always super friendly and kind
