Chinese restaurants in Dublin

  1. Wongs

    This top-rated Chinese restaurant, 5km from the city centre, is a family-run classic with subdued décor and friendly service that raises the bar on warmth and courtesy. The menu is not especially adventurous – it sticks to tried and tested dishes that won’t offend the conservative Irish palate – but what it does serve is generally excellent. Our absolute favourite is the duck in a carved-out pineapple shell surrounded by pieces of the fruit and dripping with sauce. Upstairs is a teppanyaki room – a private dining room where the food is cooked in the middle of the seated group – for that special occasion or business dinner.

    Imperial Chinese Restaurant

    This long-established restaurant is a favourite with the Chinese community and is noted for its lunchtime dim sum and its we-don’t-smile-but-we’re-efficient service. If you’re looking for some genuine Chinese dishes in an authentic atmosphere, there’s no better time to go than Sunday, when the Imperial serves brunch Chinese-style in what is known as yum cha, or ‘drink tea’, the traditional accompaniment to dim sum.

    Good World

    A hands-down winner of our best-Chinese-restaurant competition, the Good World has two menus, but to really get the most out of this terrific spot, steer well clear of the Western menu and its unimaginative dishes. With listings in two languages, the Chinese menu is packed with dishes and delicacies that keep us coming back for more.

    Melody

    This busy restaurant might have been designed to suit the tastes of the city’s Chinese community (lots of red lacquer and black marble), but it’s popular with others, too, who come – often in big groups – for the decent grub and the warren of downstairs karaoke rooms.
