I recently visited China Town in Galway with a friend, and it was a great experience! The ambiance was decent, providing a comfortable setting for our meal. We ordered the chicken hot chili garlic main course with noodles and chow mein, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. The flavors were on point, with just the right amount of spice. The service was also excellent—quick and friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Overall, a fantastic dining experience, and I’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!

Tasty food
Had Spicy chicken fried rice, Duck Thai green curry & prawns garlic for take away. The food was fresh, scrumptious & portion size was good enough. One of the best chinese & our go to restaurant for sure. Staff was very polite & courteous. Great ambience & one of the cleanest restrooms. Will definitely recommend.
Absolutely amazing restaurant! If you can read Chinese, ask for their hidden Chinese menu ,the dishes are authentic, completely different from the English menu, and absolutely unforgettable. Honestly, it’s some of the best food I’ve ever had in my life! The staff are super sweet and patiently explain every dish, which made the whole experience perfect!🥰
