Food was great went there more than once during my 2 week stay in Dublin.

The service was efficient and polite, but they did not make a person feel confortable.

The food was great! I tried some noodles, ramen and thai curry, nothing disappointed and I would definetly go back.

The price make going at lunch a great deal.

I believe it is worth it.

The waitress attended to or every need and refilled our water when we asked. The food tasted great, and the portion sizes were fine. The pork ribs tasted great and so did the red curry. The place had a nice atmosphere and was very clean. There was also a bathroom available. Overall, this place was fine.

Response from the owner

My experience here is unforgettable. A few friends and I had dined here after walking under the unfortunate Irish weather: rainy. It was the perfect restaurant to stop by to fill your stomach with happiness. The service is wonderful, although at one point, the waitress took away our plate, not knowing that we had not finished dining. As first-time customers at this restaurant, this interaction left me and my friends flabbergasted and bewildered. The food quality makes up for it.

Response from the owner

Dear Yik Xuan,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are very pleased to hear that you and your friends enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service during your visit, especially after the rainy weather.

We would also like to sincerely apologise for the misunderstanding regarding your plate being cleared before you had finished dining. We understand how this could have been frustrating, particularly as first-time guests, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Your feedback will be shared with our team to help us improve our attentiveness and service standards.

Thank you again for your kind words and understanding. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back to Mao Stillorgan in the future.

Best regards,
Mao Stillorgan
