Kopitiam may have been one of my favorite meals while visiting Dublin! Very delicious dishes with…read moreflavors the (pleasantly) attack your tastebuds. From having traditional Irish dishes for a couple days straight prior, this was an ideal change up to switch up the flavors. I ordered the Roti Canai, Nasi Lemak with Sambal Prawn, and Singapore Laksa Lemak which had fish balls, chicken and tofu. All so delicious. The Roti was warm and buttery and when dipped in the curry it added a rich and savory bite. The Nasi Lemak with the perfectly cooked prawns were also amazing. Perfect texture and also savory to provide that warm and familiar asian comfort food. I'm not sure what the thin fried crackers are that came with it but that also added another flavor combination to try. Also so good. Finally, the Singapore Laksa was so delectable. The rich coconut curry broth and noodles paired with a bite of tender chicken, fishballs and/or tofu made for a super enjoyable dish. I came in for dinner towards the final hour before closing which may have gone in my favor since there was a table available when I walked in. The staff were very attentive, patient and friendly. Definitely will look to go visit their other locations!

16.05.2025 Had a quick lunch here and the Hainan chicken rice was a pleasant surprise. The steamed…read morechicken leg was tender, juicy, and with very little excessive fat. The rice was clearly soaked in chicken fat oil as authentic Hainan chicken rice should do. Would recommend this dish to anyone looking for good Southeast Asian/Chinese cuisine.

Maybe it was the dish that I got, but I just was not wowed by my meal here. I've had way better…read moreMalaysian food as I have easier access to authentic Malaysian food here in NYC and this just didn't compare. I got the sayur sayuran (mixed vegetables) dish and was kind of disappointed to learn that rice wasn't included with the mains. When the food came, they placed the dish on this little grill on the table. A nice touch, but I thought it was kind of unnecessary. The dish itself was okay tasting but very bland. Service was prompt but the prices are rather high. I will say, though, that since I am a vegetarian, I didn't get to try any of their meat dishes. Maybe that's where they shine instead?

Yes to Roti Canai…read more Yes to Char Kway Teow Meh to Beef Rendang - it is one of my favourite dishes back home but here, they have put a Western twist on it with beef strips instead of beef cubes, and gravy instead of a thick creamy curry. Meh to Ice Bandung - this is a cordial-like drink with rose syrup and condensed milk but I hardly tasted the former. That qualified them for 3 stars. An additional star: Staff were very attentive and gracious when my stray arm hit the glass of water which went flying across the table, and immediately replaced it as well. Will come back here again - hopefully the restaurant sees this review and change the recipes to the dishes to make them more authentic.

I went to Langkawi (the restaurant, not the island) on the recommendation of a Malaysian friend so…read moreI had high hopes of super food. I was in Malaysia about 8 years ago and the food is absolutely amazing, I was very excited about a little piece of a Malay experience in Dublin. The owner was really attentive and took very good care of us explaining all of the dishes and he even said he'd order for us so that we had a good experience. For starters he brought us a variety of the starters so that we could try a few. These were nice although the deep fried ones were pretty oily. Not a hugely different experience from another Asian restaurant. The problem with the owner choosing our dishes is that I have no idea what I ate! The main course was delicious, I had a chicken dish in a hot and spicey sauce with rice. My friend had a lamb curry-ish dish which he devoured. We just had ice cream to finish off as we were pretty full at this stage. Bonus points for Langkawi because they had lassi which I absolutely love but you can only get sometimes, I had a scrumptious mango lassi. Yum.

I may of just found one of my favourite places in Dublin!!…read more It's been running for 25 years now at this stage and my parents used to go there most weekends all those years ago, I got my first visit the other weekend and it was a very good one! The owner and head chef, Alex, is a really nice guy and he managed to find the time to come out in between cooking delicious curry's and say hello to all the customers! The food, was so authentic and fresh and was really good. I had the prawn fritters to start (battered prawns with a sweet and sour sauce) and then the squid gulai curry as a main and it was fantastic! The squid tasted so fresh and the rice was very nice aswell! The sauce had a perfect spice and really flavorous taste to it. This is definitely worth a visit if your looking to go out to ballsbridge / town for dinner and want a delicious and not expensive Asian cuisine! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

very delicious noodles and dumplings. the portions were abundant and tasty. I'd order againread more

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!

Came here for lunch today…read more They have a lot of different bubble teas, including non-milk teas (which is great for me since I'm lactose intolerant). I got the kumquat tea with the tapioca bubbles and it was delicious. The menu here is pretty big. There are dishes appetisers, main courses, and desserts. There are dishes from Taiwan, Malaysia, Philippines, Japan, China, and Thailand. It's a little overwhelming, but variety is the spice of life, right? I went for the Taiwanese Braised Pork with Rice (though you could get noodles instead of raise). The pork was delicious, and practically melted in my mouth. The dish came with a miso type soup beforehand, so between that and the bubble tea I left pretty stuffed. The cafe itself is decorated really cutely. The had lots of little Easter bunny stuff out (cause it's Easter). The honey toast looks pretty delicious. That'll be my next order at Mosa.

I had a very nice matcha milk tea with coconut jelly yesterday. Pity that I had a big dinner before…read morecoming to Mosa so could not try their food but will try their next time soon!

Reading the other reviews here, I kinda feel like I have to defend Mao. This place really isn't…read morethis bad. Sure, they don't offer the best deals in town, price-vice, and their servings can be a bit ungenerous, but the food is tasty. Especially the MAo salad and sesame prawns. Yum! And for the Mao in Dundrum, I actually like the seating area, especially when it's a good day and you can grab a table outside, split a few Asian tapas dishes with your friend you can nibble on while watching shoppers walk in and out of Dundrum Shopping Centre,

Some people rave about mao but I wouldn't be crazy about it. I've eaten here a few times and it's…read morefine - just nothing spectacular. I did really like their pumpkin spring rolls but there noodle dishes were a bit on the bland side, in my opinion. Just like a glorified pot noodle to be honest! I also think it's overpriced for what it is. To be fair though, I haven't tried any of the other mao's in Dublin - there's one in dun laoghaire and chatham row as far as I know - so maybe the food and service is better elsewhere.

This is my local chinese takeaway, so given that we're almost neighbours I thought it only right…read morethat I give it a quick review seeing as though Ive been eating here for years. This is a great chinese takeaway. I have it on speed dial, its also on justeat.ie The food here is excellent. The portions are massive and the menu is vast. they do great mid week special offers and also a selection of plain or "european" dishes if one of your crew dont do chinese. Hot n sour soup and honey spare ribs are always part of my order. The variety and price is very attractive. I've always received prompt service and always a free bag of prawn crackers. Kids love the food here to and we've tried all the other locals but this is the best of the lot.
