The best restaurants in Kildare

20/07/2025: Me and my son went in to Central Grill to get two bags of chips for him and my fiance, soon to find out €8 for two bags of chips, 4 euro per bag, even with that price I still bought the two bags of chips. After I ordered Me and my son went into the shop next to it to look around to get, a salad for my mother and drinks or us, this took around 5-10 minutes. After buying our stuff in the shop next to Central Grill we came back to immediately be served by a man with no expression. We got salt and vinegar on the two bags of chips. We left then with the two bags of chips to eat in our car, while my son and fiance were eating their bags of chips that the more they got into the bag the chips began to become more hard in the middle raw-like then when they were halfway in the bag the chips were raw, the chips still hot but not cooked properly at all. They only got hallway of their chips then stopped eating because it tasted inedible. My complaints are that they had enough time to cook our chips properly and we were fine with waiting longer for chips that they can eat, It also was very problematic that is was €8 for chips that aren't cooked and my final complaint is customer service, the person who served us was like a robot, no smile, just expressionless it wasn't even in the slightest a nice meal.

28/06/2025: It was the worst food I’ve gotten from any chipper, ever. Chips were half cooked, batteries sausage, burger and scallops were the same.

26/06/2025: Dog shit quality…. Would be difficult to make a worse chip

22/05/2025: The pizza is amazing. The garlic cheesy chip is not so great.

22/06/2025: Over two hours waiting and wrong order

21/06/2025: Ordered a takeaway at 8pm was told it was going be an hours wait time two hours later rang restaurant still no sign of takeaway and said it would be another 20 minutes and they wouldn't refund my card they said I would have to go into the takeaway to get my refund would not recommend seriously bad service

03/02/2025: i won’t be buying from them anymore. their spice bags have less and less chicken every time i get them.

01/01/2025: 15 euro for this amount of duck ?

30/03/2025: Delivery was 2 hours late, had to ring.

01/03/2025: One of the best Chinese takeaways around, amazing service and amazing food, great menu to choose from and great portion sizes, highly recommend for anyone in naas

01/08/2025: The atmosphere is really good and staff is very polite and gentle

30/06/2025: At the till, there was no question about membership in kildare Village, and membership gives 10% discount, so it should be asked before processing payment to all customer. I needed to ask if they accept the membership and she told me I should have said it to her beforehand to get the discount and that its now too late. Staff should be train basic customer service because not all customer will be aware of this discounts.

19/07/2025: I ordered a munchie box from new kings on just eat, when I received the order and was told to pay an extra €3 from the delivery guy with no reason or heads up from the the restaurant, it was very annoying as I had no change and rang up just eat help line and was made aware that what they did was incorrect and they have to inform you before hand as it breaches just eat guidelines. But a total of €7 for a delivery which is a 6min (4.2km away) drive away is very ridiculous, I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

22/05/2025: Best Chinese in Newbridge and the friendliest person serving

20/07/2025: Asking for a filter coffee two days in a row you would swear I was asking for a pint of blood, have to settle for Americano. Ye might aswell remove it from the menu

01/08/2025: Easy access off motorway with lots of parking.

01/06/2025: Dreadful ...very badly organised, 40 minutes between pre paying and getting food. Ordered a happy meal with a potion of chicken and a button icrea cream. Got a tiny chicken leg half raw and a handful of chips on the bottom of the bag. The ice-cream was melted as it was left standing on the counter. Had to go back for the drink and the toy...never again ..avoid

14/07/2025: Just bought a chocolate cake from centra I would not recommend it , the cake itself is very dry and doesn't taste nice will not be buying again

05/04/2025: The worst cake I have ever had, the cookies & cream cake had no cookies and it was as hard as a concrete and as dry as sand...

06/07/2025: We order regularly and one comment on the sweet chilli chicken please. A little more sauce would be great. Always very tasty.

21/06/2025: On a positive, the man who served me was delightful. Waited half an hour in the restaurant in Naas. It was €45 - this got us a prawn pad Thai - with TWO prawns in it. A "beef" massaman - when I say I've never seen such poor quality meat I'm under stating - and two portions of potato cubes so undercooked that we could have planted them in the garden and they'd have kept growing (odd for food to be undercooked having spent so long waiting on it)

21/07/2025: Spice bag so bad more chips then chicken so scabby

28/04/2025: Food is always good and good portions. Waiting is weird ,always told 10/20mins . Arrive there 30mins and you still have to wait another 10. Very slow service. Place needs a redo

19/06/2025: Asian woman working there very rude to me and my friend ,I ordered a coffee and she told me my friend have to order 1 too,I said he is allergic,she threw us out .a disgraceful experience

16/06/2025: I called in on Saturday 14th June for a coffee and a muffin to take away and attempted to pay with an online voucher I had received as a gift. I had the QR code downloaded to my phone as per the instructions. When they scanned the consumer they said it wasn’t registering at the till even thought the gift card number was under the QR code. The assistant said she couldn’t accept the voucher as payment so I left the store and my order as I refused to pay for something when I had a voucher to cover the cost. When I got home I checked the voucher online and was horrified to find that the cost of the goods I hadn’t gotten because my voucher wasn’t “registering”, had been deducted from the full cost of the voucher. There is no phone numbers for this shop and when k emailed the customer complains email address given on their website, the email bounced back. Absolutely appaling treatment by staff and it seems when there is a problem, there is no one around to rectify. I will be calling back in person tomorrow so I will update this post then.
