No, decided to sleep off the hunger.:)

Ye, if I'm in a hurry its the royal, then singapore, then cooking as a last resort if I've time.:D

The Royal give massive portions but their meat isn't great. Nice curry sauce though. Stay clear of Maynooth Chinese. They are not great tbh as i lived there for a year and went to the Royal instead.

Maynooth is the best place in Kildare of course You're just jealous cos your from Celbridge which is full of wannabe dubs :P:P

Anyhow, that indian is a rip off!! i went there and saw the prices. Eu10 for a take away. Not very expensive i thought so i'd give it ago. Anyway, i when was paying it came to like a total of 25euro (for 2 people) or something :eek: They charged extra on top of the 10 for the chips and rice. That is taking the piss. The food wasn't even that great.

it is absolutley fabulous. I work over that direction so have been on a few work nights out there. it really is amazing to say the least!!

I like the takeaway from the Wok Inn, on the captains hill. But if i'm going to sit in somewhere, Miss Wongs is the place to go.

The Amber Regent recently changed management and apparently a lot of people don't like the new crowd.

MISS WONGS - LEIXLIP

Amz

Care to elaborate as to why?

ChewChew

someone tell me where miss wongs is. i've heard so much about it, but just dont know where it is.

Redsoxfan

Royal Villa in Maynooth ftw.

djimi

If youre prepared to travel a little further afield, the Flaming Wok in Clane is, in my opinion anyway, the nicest chinese around.

The new Golden Ring in Naas over the post office (not called the Golden Ring any more) was recently reopened and that is fabulous as well. They do this honey cantonese chicken which is to die for!

If you enter Leixlip over the Liffey bridge from the Springfield hotel direction there's a sharp left bend as you enter Leixlip main street, take the next left just before the traffic lights, it's a narrow lane leading in to Ralph square, then just follow the lovely smell of chinese food.:p

Corruptedmorals

Wok In on Captains Hill Leixlip for a cheap takeaway.
Miss Wong for a restaraunt
Singapore Fame, Celbridge is pretty good
Amber Regent has gone wayyy downhill

Honourable mention to Princess Gardens, Lucan. Can be good if you get there when the food is hot and not starting to go lukewarm.

emee

was in amber regent on saturday and was a bit wary after seeing the comments on here as it used to be my favourite chinese but i was really impressed. had the thai red curry and its definately now a contender for the nicest red curry i've had. their regular chinese curry isnt as nice as it used to be though.

one annoying thing though - has anyone noticed since they've stopped including the 10% tip in the price that they're falling over each other to make sure everything is ok for you? its gotten to the stage where they'll take the glass out of your hand to refill it with water when you take a sip :rolleyes:

slash291

That Lotus place in maynooth is pretty nice, used to be called C3 until recently. I've ordered a few times recently and they deliver REALLY quick, even on a saturday night! :pac:

ha! I've lived in both clonee and maynooth so I can commenton this one

Eatzen is ok , but Scenes across the road from them are much nicer.
Tbh I dont find the chinese takeaways in maynooth to be great.


Had a foul tasting takeaway from Royal City (the one near the phone shop?).
Ken's is ok but REALLY over priced.
C3/lotus is the best out of the three, but no great shakes.
As for the others:

The indian is massively overpriced and I'd a run in with a really surly waiter there last time, so its another one to avoid.


Maximus do really nice chips , but the burgers are a bit dodge.
I've never easten out of the dodgy looking pizza place beside there so I cant comment.
Rebel Pizza is probably the best takeaway in the town (provided you like pizza's I suppose)and decent value.
Supermacs is , well supermacs, I guess students from down the country probably want to eat somewhere familiar..;)
the ice cream muffins are nice though.

Not takeaways but:

Donatellos(behind the LA)is really good , although a little pricey
The Roost does very good pubgrub, Caulfields do a decent sunday dinner.
and lastly The Avenue is overpriced for average enough food.

Huh?

Mizzoni's do a grand Pizza. The wagon wheel is gigantormous

sekhon_boy

I like the one beside Super Max, i think called Asian Cuisine. Food is always good ( I like the Chicken Satay, Shredded chicken chilli and Kung Pu chicken) . But i will say , it is better to cook at home , so that you will know what you are eating. There are plenty of shops in Dublin where you can buy ingredients and now even one shop has opened in Maynooth (Spice Me Up in Doctors Lane) as well. For big parties i will prefer to cook at home , can make Chicken Satay or some chiken dish to go with Jasmine rice.

I've lived in Leixlip, Maynooth and now Kilcock and the best Chinese by far in North Kildare is the Flaming Wok in Clane, I used to travel to Celbridge as there was no decent place in Maynooth/Leixlip/Kilcock, but got word of this place and have never looked back since....the take away is always jammers...well worth the journey

Agent Smith

Canton House in lexlip by a Long way.


Them Guys are as fast as fuck And the food tastes Great

Rozabeez

Royal City in Maynooth and Wok Inn in Leixlip are my favourites.

Novella

Flaming Wok in Clane, yum yum yum.

Got food poisoning from the place on xmas eve before last but still eat there so that has to be saying something! If I'm gonna get food poisoning, there is no place I'd rather get it from

koprano

Miss Wongs in Leixlip by a country mile

i went to the Miss Wongs once, the place was nearly booked out, i was wondering what all the fuss was about, when we did manage to get a seat i ordered the fillet of beef seshwan (mind the spellings). There was no more fillet of beef in as the was speghetti hoops. It was the same rubbery beef you get in any other chinese takeaway.

I didnt like it at all.

leixlip miss wongs
celbridge synapore fame or royal palace depends on what you want
maynooth Kens was goos but its gone now...prob misonies (spelt wrong)

Agent Smith

Seems like i'll have to try this miss wongs...

df1985

hot and spicy chicken from miss wongs is incredible!

FestivalFox

I used to be religious about Miss Wongs until I tried Choys in celbridge. Its the best I've ever had. The rendang Malaysian curry there has to be tried!

Redsoxfan

Anyone tried the new place in Maynooth yet? I think it's called The Orient (opposite Brady's, beside the AIB). The sign outside on the street mentions an 'All You Can Eat' lunch buffet for €8.80 (:eek:) everyday between 12.30 and 3.30.

I've been in there for the 'All You Can Eat' lunch. It's very good value, they just put out a large selection of dishes and you take what you want. Great way of sampling all the different dishes too.

+1, just back and it's good value. Packed with kids (not surprising consider they eat for half the price, i.e. €4.40!) though who managed to knock over a table. Get there early.

They are still waiting on takeaway menus (they have one taped to the counter).

I_luv_2_ski!

I was in the Annabel in Leixlip today...its where the Amber Regent used to be...food was amazing but service was crap!!!

our orders were taken within about 5mins of us arriving...about 10mins later we had our starters...when we were finished our empty plates were left sitting on front of us for about 20-25mins...while waitresses were standing at the next table setting it and were walking around aimlessly!!! finally they were taken away and bout 5mins later mains came...when we finished yet again plates were left sittin on front of us for 15-20mins!!! we then asked for the cheque which arrived with in about 2mins but wasnt collected for 10mins!!!

there was a big table next to us some of who knew the manager and they seemed to be getting all the attention and we were forgotten about, or so we felt!!!

the restaurant was cold due to broken raidatiors which i dont blame on the staff but the fact that there was empty seats around which would have been warmer was slightly annoying!!!

still food was really good...it'll just be take away next time!!!!!

Clane love the flaming wok
Maynootgh Too long ago to remember
Celbridge can't remember what it is called
Leixlip Wok Inn is brilliant for sit it eliveries are akmost as good as the fkaming wok
City centre charlies for me, athough I am sure some of the place on parnelll street east are really nice. or the one in epicurian.

BumbleB

Charlies in town is great .I have chinese friends and they all eat in charlies so that saying something.

I like the curry in Maximus .The indian in maynooth is dear but I still go there anyway .

I_luv_2_ski!

i lived in leixlip for 8 years and i didnt know you could eat in in the wok inn...not that i would i had one very bad take away from there and havnt gone near the place since!!! food poising is no fun!!!

i agree that the flaming wok in clane is lovely...i only discovered this one recently and its lovely!!! we'd been going to phony palace before that on recommendations as we'd just moved to the area but the flaming wok is so much nicer!!!

does anyone know what happened to kens in maynooth??? i went for dinner one day and it was closed!!!

lods

Have always used Miss Wongs for the last 7 years . The last two weekends i've got it & its been horrible.:mad: What's happened. New Chef? cheap meat cuts? Penny pinching? Couldn't eat it last night. Going to have to use a new chinese, any recommendations?

peanuthead

Flaming Wok in Clane. We drive from Dublin to go there
