Harrys on the GreenPosted on 16 April 2011
4 of us went here with a city deal voucher. actually only 3 of us could make it, so they let us use the 4th persons voucher to get free deserts, which was very nice of them. the food was nice, although the menu did seem kind of limited. we didn't get to try the cocktails cause there was a bottle of wine with the deal, so must go back sometime to try them! i would recommed it for casual after work dining. it wasn't very crowed when we were there but that was at half 6 on a wed!

Pattaya ThaiPosted on 05 February 2011
I love this place, I'd go so far as to say that it makes the best thai curries in Dublin. Its not expensive and the staff are always lovely. I'm mad about the decor, although its a bit better now since they recently redecorated. I regularly get take away from here too and I love their thai prawn crackers. I definitely recommend it to anyone who loves thai food. I believe they are going to start doing some chinese dishes soon too.

Jaipur Restaurant (Dalkey)Posted on 13 December 2010
A friend and I ate here recently. The food was very nice, and we got free pompadomes for starters (which i always like!). The service though was quite disappointing. No one offered to hang up our coats despite there being a cloakroom in plain view (we put them on the back of our chair). After we were seated, we were left waiting for a long time before someone came to take our order. No one even offered to take a drink order initially or pour some water. We were seated in a corner where there was a draft from the main door, which didn't shut properly after anyone walked through it. But none of the staff seemed to notice. By the end of the meal I was actually kind of cold. It was early enough in the evening when we were there and they were not very busy - there were many empty tables, so we could not account for why we felt a bit ignored. The bill took a while to come also.
I would recomened the food but I hope they can do something about their customer service.

Mao Restaurant (Dundrum)Posted on 01 July 2008
I went here with my boyfriend one evening. The waiter got my boyfriends order wrong, and then forgot to bring the correct order out when it was ready. I ordered chicken satay for starters which i love. The chicken was very dry - like it had been sitting out and reheated. We sent it back and got fresh chicken but the the satay sauce was too spicy to each, so I just had chicken with some soy sauce... I wasn't very impressed. They do have nice cocktails but I don't think I'll go back.

Harrys Cafe BarPosted on 01 July 2008
I go to this place quite often. They have the BEST hot chocolate in dublin. The food is nice, a bit pricy maybe. I love their thai soup. I just wish they would do gluten/wheat free bread.
The only thing that put me off was - I was there one time with my boyfriend getting take away hot chocolate and coffee. The have a covered in display unit with cakes and then further up the counter then have a tray on the counter with muffins. My boyfriend picked up a muffin off the tray and asked to get it for take away also, and the manager got rather annoyed saying it was a health and saftey issue if customers touched the food and he should have asked a member of staff! We pointed out that they are just sitting there like as if to take them yourself and that if he doesn't want customers touching them he should have them behind a display unit also or put up a sign. We were put off a bit by his attitude, and him telling my boyfriend that he had an attitude problem! We didn't go back for a while after that but when we did there was a sign up saying please don't touch the muffins!

Alexis Bar And GrillPosted on 01 July 2008
I went here for dinner with work, a very large group. The service was great, no delays despite the size of our group. The food was lovely. I will definitely go back with friends.

China SichuanPosted on 01 May 2008
We had a main course here on Sunday night. The food was nice, just the right amount of spicy. We just ordered prawn crackers as a starter and the only dip they had was sweet and sour sauce but it was actually the nicest sweet and sour sauce I've ever had. As mentioned here the decor wasn't great but they are moving to Sandyford soon. Waiting staff were attentive.
I'll go back when they move to Sandyford!

KitesPosted on 30 September 2007
This restaurant was recommended by a few friends as the best Chinese in Dublin so we went in one Saturday night. Staff were friendly and the food was very nice, and priced accordingly. Someone else here mentions the layout: it does seem that a redesign could make the place seem a bit more spacious but other than that I'd have nothing negative to say about here.

Baan Thai (Leopardstown)Posted on 08 February 2007
Nice decor and staff, half way through my mains we said to the waitress that it was just too spicy for me and another milder versions was brought out as soon as possible which was very accommodating. The dessert I got was a bit disappointing - it tasted like it was bought in pre made and frozen. I’d would go back but just wouldn't get dessert next time.

Diep le ShakerPosted on 08 February 2007
We walked in without a booking on a busy night and the waiter did his best to get us a seat asap. My boyfriend ordered a half bottle of wine - they had none left so gave him a full bottle to drink "half of". Friendly, accommodating staff, a lively atmosphere and good food. We had some very nice cocktails for dessert. It could be a bit more reasonably priced but other than that, no complaints.

Chapter One RestaurantPosted on 08 February 2007
This is expensive but the food was really good. Best mashed potatoes and croquette potatoes in Dublin. Staff are helpful and polite. I would definitely go back but only for a special occasion due to the price.

Jaipur Restaurant (George's Street)Posted on 08 February 2007
Nice decor, food was ok, except for my main meal, which was very bland, drinks order was messed up twice and naan bread was burnt, we mentioned this to the server but they either didn't hear us or ignored us! The toilets also needed attendance. Wouldn't go back in a hurry.
