Loved the vibes of this place and the wait staff, though incredibly busy, still made the time to make sure we had everything we needed as food was delivered to our table. We can honestly say we did not have one bad bite of food. To our surprise, the Spice Bag was the thing we thought was the least impressive of the bunch. Still very good, but everything else was so much better. Wish there was a little more chicken in it. The Pan Fried Dumplings were maybe some the best we ever had. Do not skip the Cucumber Salad, this dish is incredibly underrated. The Chicken Satay was very good, not sure if I would get it again. The Thai Basil Beef was a stunner! Huge flavor bomb! In fact, do not skip any beef dish they have. The Crispy Chili Chicken was the best part of a Spice Bag, without the fries. The Duck Wings had amazing flavor, wished they were served a bit hotter. Everything I am mentioning as a criticism is slight and minor FYI. If we ever come back to Dublin, we are coming straight here! Also, do not sleep on their cocktail menu! Amazing drinks!

Before my trip to Ireland, I kept seeing everyone post about the "spice bag," so of course I had to…read moretry one for myself. This place was packed, with a line out the door. It's also very tight inside with limited seating, and there's usually someone waiting right behind you for a spot. That said, the food was good. I got the spice bucket with shredded chicken, chicken balls, and chicken wings, and everything was tasty. It's a great little snack, especially after a night at the bar. I also tried the biang biang noodles with dan dan sauce. They were definitely not what I expected, but they were saucy and peanutty, so if that's your thing, you'll probably enjoy them. The satay chicken bites were also pretty good--light, crispy, and topped with a little sauce. One tip: know exactly what you want before you get to the front of the line! I forgot to order curry sauce and ended up waiting forever just to get back in line, and then waited even longer for the sauce.

Did you need to satisfy your Asian fast food noodle craving? It seems a lot of people come here…read morejust for that reason. This place seems to be a fan favorite to dine in or for take out. Although I didn't stay, the tables were occupied and everyone seemed to be chatty in front of their large bowls of noodles. It's definitely not an ideal place for a first date, but more of a 'I've go a lot a crap load of work to do', last resort, quick, lunch time, I want noodles kind of place. They've got a variety of Regular Noodle boxes like Ho Fun, Honey Soy Chicken, Seafood, Teriyaki, and Pad Thai. With prices running between $5.50 and $7.50 (EUR, sorry I couldn't find the euro key). They even have Malaysian Boxes and Italian Boxes. Pretty good, pretty fast, I had the Seafood box btw which was good enough for me. Although my coworker said they added too much soy sauce to his. This is not my favorite place for noodles in my opinion, but also not the worst! They also claim Gluten Free Available, and that they use 100% Irish beef. Happy noodling!

He knew the menu inside and out and gave us fantastic recommendations, including perfect wine pairings and great cocktail suggestions before dinner. What really stood out was how attentive and generous he was throughout the meal. He even surprised us with an extra beer, which was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel incredibly well taken care of. Exceptional service is hard to find, and Vinni absolutely delivered. He struck the perfect balance of being attentive without ever being intrusive, and his positive energy made the experience even more memorable. If you're lucky enough to have Vinni as your server, you're in for a fantastic meal and an even better dining experience. He's a true asset to the restaurant, and we'll definitely be back because of him. Highly recommend!

And, three appetizers for fifteen euro, including sausage rolls, prawn skewers, and liver pate with strips of toasted bread.

They have a good selection of Mediterranean cuisine (shish kabobs, falafels). I've eaten there most at the end of the night of hanging out at different pubs and their food really hit the spot.

They turn their orders around very quickly at late night, either for dine-in or take-away. They have plenty of dine-in seating.

I tried the Beef Kebab, the Koobideh (spiced ground lamb and beef), and the Falafel (herbaceous chickpea fritters). The kebabs were juicy and flavorful, but the falafels were too soft, wet, and crumbly for my liking. The family-style menu also came with hummus, tzatziki, a spicy chili sauce, salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, red onion, pickled red cabbage), and freshly-baked rounds of taftoon flatbread. Overall, everything we tried was flavorful, healthy, and came at a reasonable price for the quality of food!
