Coriander - Nepalese And Indian Restaurant Douglas
Cork
28/02/2025: *Disappointing Experience at Coriander - Rude Service and Poor Attitude
My wife and I, along with her family friend, visited Cork, Ireland, for a short trip from England. We decided to try out an Indian-Nepalese restaurant called Coriander, which we found on Google Maps. Unfortunately, our experience was far from pleasant, and I feel compelled to share our disappointment.
We called ahead and reserved a table for four just five minutes before arriving. Upon entering, the restaurant was nearly empty, with only four tables occupied, including ours. A young man handed us menus and said he’d return when we were ready to order. When we called him back, one of our party wasn’t ready, so we politely asked him to come back later.
Five minutes later, we were ready to order, but this time, a different waiter with a beard approached us. His attitude was immediately off-putting. My wife, who was feeling unwell with a cold and flu, requested a room-temperature soft drink. His response was shocking: “You guys can order hot drinks, why do you need a soft drink?” This was not only rude but also completely unprofessional. We were taken aback by his dismissive and condescending tone.
When we ordered the lamb chops, he didn’t bother to explain how many pieces would be served or provide any details about the dish. His demeanor throughout the interaction was cold and unwelcoming. It was evident that he didn’t want us there, as he seemed much happier and friendlier serving the local Irish customers. This double standard in treatment was both noticeable and unacceptable.
To make matters worse, the restaurant’s signage outside prominently displays “Indian Restaurant,” but the staff’s behavior made us question their respect for the culture they’re representing. It felt misleading and, frankly, disrespectful to use the Indian title if the staff harbors such attitudes.
The waiter spent more time on his phone than attending to customers, and his overall behavior suggested he was doing us a favor by serving us, rather than treating us as paying guests. The lack of basic courtesy and professionalism was astounding.
I cannot recommend Coriander to anyone. The service was appalling, the attitude of the staff was rude, and the overall experience left us feeling unwelcome and undervalued. Save yourself the disappointment and dine elsewhere.
21/02/2025: The nicest Indian I have ever tried. Every dish is amazing! Service is fantastic very nice staff

Bombay Palace
Cork
19/02/2025: My family and I visited this elegant Indian restaurant over the Christmas holidays. The restaurant is located in the heart of the city. For starters, we ordered an Assorted Indian snacks. This was scrumptious to say the least. In the mains, we got a Chicken Biryani, two Bombay Aloo’s, a garlic naan, and a cheese & onion naan. Since my partner and I are vegetarian, we chose the Bombay Aloo. This was one of several vegetarian options they had on their menu. We quite liked that they had vegan options as well. The food and service were impeccable. Being of an Indian background, I must say that the quality of their food and the balance of their spices was quite remarkable. It is certainly up there as one of the best Indian restaurants I have dined at outside of India.
I would highly recommend this spot to any food lover who cherishes exquisite Indian food. It was worth every penny 😋
You will thank me later!
17/02/2025: Delicious, beautifully spiced food; friendly and efficient service; definitely worth a visit if you’re in Cork city!

Village Inn
Cork
11/12/2024: Unbelievable value for food and food is top class
10/12/2024: I just had the chicken doner meat with chips... I'm in heaven! Chicken doner was said to be a bit spicy but I'm cool with that. The sauce was lush, the salad wasn't over bearing the chicken itself was succulent, I was smiling from ear to ear the whole time! If you're wanting meat and chips, come here. It's a MUST!

Spice of India
Cork
17/06/2024: Very nice dinner! The staff are lovely and very attentive. The portions are enormous, we ended up having leftovers, which the waiter boxed up for us to take away. Lovely experience, we will be back!
07/06/2024: Worst Indian I've ever had. Had the tikia masala naan, bajii, and naan the tika masala tasted like washing up liquid and I'd say the chicken was borderline gone off, the bajii was burnt to a crisp the naan was full of oil. And the place was empty.... no wonder.
Would I go back.... not a chance

Gaylord Indian Restaurant
Cork
26/12/2024: Probablemente el mejor restaurante indio en Cork.
La comida es de muy alto nivel y el restaurante se ve muy bien.
Espero estar allí pronto de nuevo.
01/11/2024: Comida buena, precios ridículos. Cobró un extra de € 7. 90 para góndola de salsa merakana porque no había suficiente en lo que obtuvimos. Nunca más iremos allí. Uno de nosotros tiene un pollo tandoori en lugar de meramakana
Y nos hicieron tomar el tandoori. Tuve la tentación de irme, pero era el cumpleaños de mi madre.
