    We get all our takeaways from Famous and have never had a bad one


    For a sit down The New Good Year (@ Eurospar/Pennyhill) has been execellent on our last few visits (especially for groups). Kevin is a character :D

    I really can't directly compare as its a good few years since I'd eaten there.
    We only get takeaways occasionally and usually go to The Tasty Chinese in Dodsborough and think thats ok. What we got in the Annadale was WAY better

    Hey all,

    A quick note to say that if you're looking for Indian in the Lucan area , Chand tandoori really is top notch. I've been getting takeaways from there for about two years now and have never been disappointed.
    I've avoided the place recently as it has kind of changed hands, but stayed in the family! (and I didn't want to be disappointed!) , but having ordered from there tonight , I have to say .. Absolutely SUPERB!!
    Just to say , I've no affiliation or anything , but thought a good curry in Ireland is a rare thing! And should be promoted.

    And now IF ONLY there were a half decent Chinese in the area! I've tried em all, and at best they're just mediocre.

    Yeah Broadsider we all believe you, you have no connection to the place.......
    Anyway Imo The Mango Tree is the best takeaway in Lucan.
    Their Thai Yellow curry is fantastic.

    Heh heh Casey!

    I can't blame you , rockin up with a recommendation on my first post .. Does look suspicious.
    Maybe I should have said
    'Hi , first post , be gentle' or like.

    Anyway , no worries , I see where you're coming from.
    I assure you again that I've NO affiliation what so ever , besides being a satisfied customer ...

    Btw, I'm new ... Be gentle.

    P.S. must try the Mango Tree soon ...

    Any Chinese recommendations?

    I found it quiet poor to be honest this time around

    I'll second the recommendation for Chand Tandoori. Had a Vindaloo from there last week and it was really good. Spicy, but still lots of flavour.

    Hey Bogman, if you ask for vindaloo you'll get spicy I suppose!

    Do you have any recommendations for Chinese in the area?

    My work takes me to Limerick from time to time , I love the curry in the Jasmine Palace , but can't find it's like in Lucan, or local area!

    I've had takeaways from Chand Tandoori a few times. It's not bad but I wouldn't rate it highly either. They do have a good value special though: starter, any main, naan + rice for €12.95

    Kasturi is the best in Lucan imho, but more expensive (still not great though)

    Don't eat many take-aways but nearly always a Mango tree. Its pricey enough though but very tasty. Worth it as a treat

    Ate out of the Chinese by the lord lucan a few months back and it wasn't great

    Indeed. I would need at least 2 portions from there :D

    Did you try Kasturi? It is significantly better than the other Indian takeaways (but not cheap)

    Chand tandoori is closed for about 3 of months now. The owner/chef had to go back to Pakistan as his father was taken ill. He said he was planning to come back and re-open. Fingers crossed, as it was the nicest takeaway in Lucan by far.

    Why didn't you just go up and collect? ;)

    Did just that this evening myself. Some was good but most was mediocre to put it mildly. And it wasn't cheap either.

    So the best takeaway in Lucan wasn't great :(

    Heads up for anyone that hasnt seen it yet but there is a thread with discount codes for dominos. All the codes have worked in the lucan store

    +1 for the 9th lock - best chipper in the area in my opinion

    Just order and collect and it be ready when you get there.

    Great food.


    I find di Bella pizza to be poor but their steak is great.

    Pizza hut besides it does a great bbq sauce pizza.

    I was missing Chand too , so I tried a few places in the surrounding area.
    I have had a few takeaways from 'India Spice House' Main Street Leixlip, and have been very happy with the quality , flavour etc.
    It's definitely far ahead of the Kasturi , and much cheaper..
    Give the place a shot , see what you think ...
