Rum House

Dundalk

07/09/2025: I was refused entrance because I arrived after doors was closed, but my husband was inside having staff party. And came to collect him and may be to have a drink. I couldnt get earler as I was working that night very hard. I was wearing evening dress with jacket and wasnt not drunk as I worked that night. There were people allowed to let in while I was waiting outside. Despite local businessmans, with whom my husband had a staff party, were asking to let me in, bouncer kept refusing to let me in. I wasnt there been at least 10 years and wont be back for rest of my life. It is very disrespectfull attitude to people. I read reviews and saw that this happens on regular basis. I wouldnt recommend people to go there and ruining their night with such a bad attitude. If Rum House dont need our money, no problem. Husband said that bar was empty. Just interesting how they run the business, when treating respectable people like this?

16/08/2025: After I watched the liverpool game tonight and had 4 pints of bulmers, I tried to get in!There were 2 arrogant racist security members, they said I had to much drink and didn't let me in.A guy went into a pub,after me,he was almost blind drunk as a bet!Just because I am a forigner they didn't let me in!One of the worst experiences of my life,never ever going there again!!!!

Gourmet Palace

Dundalk

23/08/2025: Excellent Chinese restaurant. When we walked in it was warm, but when we told them they switched on the ac. The food was tasty. The crispy duck with rice was tasty but the quantity of the duck was not sufficient in m opinion. Everything else was great.

18/08/2025: If you like dry chicken that tastes like wood covered in sugary sauce this it the place for you. Never again. Way over priced for woeful food.

Punjab House

Dundalk

23/06/2025: One of the worst dining experiences ever. Food was cold, tasteless, clearly not fresh, and portions were shockingly small. Service was rude and we were ignored most of the time. The place had a strange smell and felt completely rundown. Biggest scam? Menu prices are misleading—dine-in costs way more than takeaway, and it’s not mentioned clearly. Felt like a total rip-off. You can see the size of bowl for the quantity and just look at the curry, there's just some vegetable prices all dried out. Avoid this place. Overpriced, poor quality, and disrespectful. DO NOT BELIEVE THE POSITIVE REVIEWS – THEY’RE FAKE AND PAID.

02/06/2025: The worst restaurant experience I’ve ever had. The food was disgusting cold, bland, and clearly not fresh. The service was beyond terrible. We were ignored for most of the time, and when we finally got the waiter’s attention, he was rude and dismissive like we were bothering him just by being there. The atmosphere was awful weird smell, and the place felt neglected. But the biggest scam? The pricing. DO NOT trust the prices on their menu outside or online. They charge different prices for takeaway and dine-in, and it’s much more expensive when you sit inside. It felt like we were being tricked into paying double. Avoid this place at all costs. Overpriced, underwhelming, and completely disrespectful. Never again.

China Kitchen

Dundalk

18/09/2025: Ordered a 3 in 1 with an extra portion of curry sauce. They didn't put any curry in the '3 in 1'. They gave me a small tub of curry sauce separately instead, so despite ordering an extra portion of curry sauce, I ended up not even having enough curry to lightly cover all of the food in this '3 in 1'. Also found a long hair in the middle of the food, which reflects the standard this establishment holds themselves to. I have never in my life seen peas in a 3 in 1 and that is because they shouldnt be there. But there they were. I also don't see why there would be massive chunks of half cooked onion in a 3 in 1, as there are usually only THREE ingredients in a 3 in 1- chips, rice and curry. I only received two of the required three in the container. This is beyond pathetic. How you can make a 3 in 1 incorrectly is beyond me. I will never order from here again.

30/07/2025: Didn't get what was ordered a week ago, 2 of the 4 ingredients were ok, it was very greasy also. I complained & they asked what I'd like instead, got a special fried rice, they crammed it with so many shrimps , that there was barely any room for rice, a spiteful retaliation for the complaint, it's like they hoped to put me off shrimps for ever, & not a word of apology for wrong order either. We won't be going there again!

11/12/2024: I order two meal deals but only received one portion of chips when I tried ringing to rectify their mistake nobody answered the phone I must have rang 4 or 5 times

02/11/2024: Ordered online and was told food would be ready at 16:16. Drove from my house in Ardee only to be told we don’t open till 5 yet online it’s says yous open at 3. Very disappointing and it’s clear service has gone down in the past few years.
