Lana Salthill Asian Street Food in Luimneach
Description
Privilege
Went here late on a Sunday evening. The staff were so friendly and lovely! The food was amazing!
MoreFood was nothing special. A bit bland and dry. Just another asian fast food
I was disappointed by my meal here. Went with a couple of friends and we ordered three main courses. The two vegetarian ones were bland and did not taste very good. For the price of the food, I would have expected food to match the cost, which did not happen. The staff member serving us was friendly and helpful so given three stars for that, otherwise would have just been two stars.
MoreFood was nice,complaint was with staff though whoever the female supervisor working was very very rude ,we walked in and were given a seat in the corner on the restaurant and were never near the till,ordered and ate ,after we finished (three of uswent to the till to pay for our meals, we asked to pay separately but we’re refused and told we either have to pay all together or in half, this made no sense so we again asked could we pay separately to which the women dismissingly pointed to a tiny printed out sign that said “meals must be paid for all together or in half” we told her it was ridiculous and that this hadn’t been explained to us nor were we at any point near the till to read this store policy ,she said that she can split the bill 3 ways but refused to , we told her that we are not refusing to pay but are unable to pay all together as we didn’t have it all on our cards ,she then threatened to call the police which we said she can go right ahead and do as we were by no means refusing to pay but that she was refusing payment , overall rude customer service ,looked at us like idiots and jumped straight to threatening to call the guards? Absolutely ridiculous, how this women became the supervisor I have no idea ,and if it’s genuinely not her fault and she was just following the rules fair enough then the owners that instructed her to follow those policy’s and to threaten the police on people should rethink their decisions
MoreLana is pretty reliable. I had a flat rice noodle dish with veg and tofu last night. It was pretty delicious, not incredible but satisfying. Two friends with me enjoyed their dinners too.Pity they dont offer any dessert, even something simple like ice creams or a small sweet mochi finisher for the meal. Would also be nice to get a non-alcoholic beer like 0% Paulaner or 0% Asian beer.
MoreI got the chicken sweet and sour noodles. It was nice. Portions were generous. Would go again.
MoreFirst time I ever had to pay a service charge!
Excellent, really good food, great value
Really good food, good value. Came as group of five and everyone was happy with their dish and portion size.
MoreGreat day sun was out and I had the Tom yum soup outside. It was nice to relax outside and watch the crowd go about their thing.
MoreNice food and very reasonably priced. Friendly staff.
The food was mediocre, quite bland. We ate at the restaurant and although we got plates, the food came in these fast food takeaway boxes, together with a loud room it destroyed the atmosphere.Waitresses were very friendly though, extra star for that :)
MoreWent today Very very impress with the staff, We were served by a beautiful Muslim girl she was very helpful and so attentive! Would recommend 100%
MoreWas there Friday, far from street food, delicious food with friendly staff, if there wasn’t plastic forks I can compare to any classy restaurant.
MoreVery rude and disrespectful staff !While I waited for my take away food I used the bathroom. I heard multiple loud bangs on the door. It frighted me at the start, opened the door to find a chair blocking my exit and a member of staff instantly confronted me for using the customer toilet during business hours as she stated that she had just cleaned it.There was no signs on or near the toilet saying there was cleaning in process or not to use them .Very poor customer service and no respect for customers.
MoreLovely food, friendly staff, reasonable prices and clean toilets.
Happy with the staff and food taste. But serving the food in take away box, while you get empty plate in front of you makes no sense. Just a big waste of packaging....
MoreOrder over an hour late, lied about calling me, and then couldnt be reached at their restaurant despite five calls. Had to cancel and get a refund on justeat.
MoreLovely food, great looking and very friendly staff. A credit to any business 👏
MoreMediocre food that comes faster than macdonalds in paper cups when dining in when everyone is trying to minimise on waste. :)
MoreUnfortunate that this place is branded with the lana logo, completely off lana standards. Mushy, overcooked & certainly microwaved noodles served soggily in a tub on the actual restaurant floor. Duck had two sharp bones in it which one of which cut my gums. Food came out piping hot unable to touch and went freezing cold within a couple minutes, Blatantly microwaved. Despite pointing it out twice and handing my entirely full plate back to waiting staff I was charged at full. Not only that but my mate was short changed 30 euro and had to point it out to staff after paying. Absolutely shambolic spot and would avoid like the plague, not like lana at all.
MoreMy girlfriend and I had lunch here today, beautiful food. Would be a 5 star rating if meals came out served on plates/bowls instead of cardboard takeout boxes. We eat with our eyes 👀Best Tom Yum I’ve had in ages (from someone that lives in Asiaif I could give 7 stars for the Tom Yum I would 👌
MorePoh pia I ordered was a plain fried vegetable spring roll. Poh pia is a specific type of spring roll and its certainly not a plain vegetable spring roll. Only a few places actually fry poh pia, like in Malaysia and Thailand and its not as tasty as a traditional poh pia. This was missing one of the main distinctive ingredients - Chinese turnip. It also should have had either seafood or Chinese sweet sausage (Lap cheong). Suggest rename it "vegetable spring roll" because thats what it is. The Massaman curry was good - rich and thick curry sauce with slices of chicken and potato cubes. Boba tea was a little thin and could have been richer, but good milky texture. The boba were a little flat and the passionfruit taste wasnt flavorful - perhaps switch supplier? Friendly staff and good ambience. Would still revisit and try some other dishes on the menu.
MoreFood was ok, but served to the table in standard paper boxes. Sorry but that is really unnecessary waste and also not nice to look what when sitting in
MoreMy girlfriend and I had dinner here yesterday and we were on a tight schedule. The waiter couldn’t have been more accommodating, the drinks and food were served to us in the matter of minutes. The food is gorgeous and the restraunt itself is very unique.Would highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤞🏼
MoreGreat food, service, and ambience at a prime location. You can enjoy your meal while soaking in the view of Salt hill promenade.
MoreFood was good, stars for that. Didnt find the place very clean, my plate wasnt clean, we had a dirty spoon, no hand soap in bathroom, place looked like it gets the minimum of cleaning. We were placed Infront of the window which looked like it hadnt been cleaned in months. It was very warm and stuffy inside, no ventilation. Also no ice cream available and we failed to get a staff member to understand that the bathroom needed soap as their level of English was minimum. Wouldnt rush back to that Lana.
MoreFood was lovely. Great ambience. Busy as usual
Excellent customer service, really friendly staff. Good food, the portions are big, a nice option for families.
MoreUsed to really enjoy the food here but it isnt very vegetarian friendly unless you dont mind fish sauce in everything you order.Staff are friendly and service is quick. Everything can be ordered with tofu but very few dishes can be made without fish sauce or egg.Update. Since visiting a different Lana where the food was nice and theyve since added a vegan menu, I tried the salthill restaurant. It has been updated and expanded but the food is pretty awful here and the service is just as bad. They forgot 3 things from the order, brought a jug of water and no glasses and the chicken was borderline undercooked. The vegan dish I had was slimy and tasteless as well and the noodles my wife ordered smelled of fish and she said tasted disgusting.
MoreOvercharged went back to girl that served me instead of refunding my account she charged me again and wasnt giving me receipt just asked for my card again. In the end I asked her to give me cash. Got home and she had given me wrong spring rolls. 😣
MoreHad a great family lunch yesterday.. staff were fast, friendly and efficient. The food is superb and most of the menu is either gluten free or has a GF version. Great portions and its expected that you can bring home what you dont manage to eat 🙂. Not my first visit and not my last.
MoreJust wow! Yum.... One of the best Asian food I had in life. Amazing staff and foodservice. 💯
Moregenuinely terrible. Absolutely the worst night in Galway. Im vegetarian and ordered with my partner. When the food arrived they had given me chicken and the food good 80 minutes to get here despite us being in knocknacarra, about 5 km at most away from salthill. After Lana I found out he was trying to propose. Basically lana ruined my engagement and honestly the food wasnt that great anyways according to my now fiancé. Just order from Xian, theyre amazing and have good gluten free and vegetarian options. Lana sucks and I wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy. I effectively was served rice because despite ording vegetarian, nothing was Vegetarian except the white rice. Honestly the rice is the reason I gave this a one star because at least they didnt screw that up.
MoreI was here today with my 2 children and my 8 month old dauschund, I wanted to order drinks for takeaway but she did not let me order because i was holding my pup in my hands, snatched the menu rudely so I wouldnt be able to order, told us we can take my order if i stand outside, we were in shock, this isnt a great example for this business, we will not be coming back
MoreDelicious food and people were really nice when I asked for gluten free food because Im coeliac.
MoreOrdered at 8pm with a delivery time of 8.55pm. as of 9.25 still waiting on a phone call back to see where my order is. Never had this issue with Lana Portlaoise. Ridiculous service.After ringing back again I was told they didnt deliver beyond 5km but theyll send the order. Their app took the order and the hotel is 3.4km away. Promised it would be delivered ten mins max when I rang back...25 mins later it turns up..almost two hours after the order it was made. Food cold when we opened it in the room. Couldnt be bothered contacting them again. Would not recommend at all. And if Id seen the previous one star review I wouldnt have ordered off them in the first place.
MoreEasily worst restaurant in Galway. Ordered for delivery came almost an hour late, got my order wrong for both food and drinks. I ate anyway - chicken was dry had obviously been cooked before and reheated. Food was also cold.Got food poisoning from here before thought I’d give another chance, will never be eating for here again. Doesn’t even deserve one star. Feel like asking for my money back.
MoreOrder takeaway: on time and great food!! One of the best thai we ever had. Precise ingredients descriptions. Thai green curry highly recommended!
MoreIve had good meals in the past from Lana, but tonight it was an utter disappointment. It was Luke warm, no spice, chips were barely cooked with no salt. Kids chicken had 4 pieces of chicken in the whole dish. If it was just one thing that wasnt up to standard Id over look it, but everything we ordered was Luke warm, taste less & over cooked. We collected 12 mins after ordering and opened then 13 mins after pick up, how could the food have gone that cold? Im giving the 2 stars cause previously Ive had good meals.
MoreThe beef was a light grey colour. It didnt look safe to eat, so we didnt.The veg was bland and tasteless, so we just ate the chips and rice.€30 for a 3-in-1 effectively.Easily the most disappointing take away Ive had in five years.I would avoid.
MoreI ordered online, it took a while but the restaurant was busy so I understand why. Collecting it was easy and straight forward. The food was really good and the portion sizes were quite large. I would recommend this place because I thoroughly enjoyed the food.
MoreFriendly efficient staff. Food was nice but portions were smaller than other sister restaurants we have ate in .Restaurant is very small and tables are very close together .Ice cream at the end of your meal is not an option as is in other lana restaurants.Please also note that hot drinks are not available .
MoreGood value for money, tasty appetizers, kind stuff. Go for duck springrolls and pad thai. One thing that surprised me was having a clean plate on the table, but all the food come in paper containers. For me thats too much unnecessary waste.
MoreLana serves Asian food—with most dishes being Thai food, and I must say it’s delicious! Since I’m Thai, I ordered mostly Thai dishes I know such as the drunken noodles and pad gra pao and they executed that very nicely! They serve your food in to-go boxes, which is a common style I’ve been noticing in many Asian restaurants in Ireland. So this means it’s great for those who want their food fast or on the go! The restaurant got beautiful decors and a lovely atmosphere in general. Affordable and delicious! Highly recommend!
MoreWorst Thai food I’ve ever eaten. I’d imagine the other people who gave more than 2 stars haven’t eaten in a lot of Thai restaurants. As a lover of Thai food, this is hands down the worst of the worst. Food tastes microwaved and artificially flavoured. Everything tastes the same. My cousin also had the most miserable looking spice box you’ve ever seen, no spice and chicken you’d have to chew longer than a well done steak. Such poor quality. They also serve you food in takeout boxes even when eating inside. Such a waste and not very environmentally responsible. Really regret giving them my money. Sure now I know.
MoreFood is great and the staff are friendly, prices are great and the quality is exceptional. Only issue is space... Very small, cramped, not very comfortable or atmospheric and often hard to get a table. Looking forward to the day they relocate to somewhere bigger. The Lana in Ennis, by contrast, is much bigger and better, and they give FREE ice-cream!!
MoreReally nice place, the staff were so friendly and accommodating! I got the spicy box with tofu instead of chicken and it was so good. Would highly recommend ❤️
MoreThe food was okay - flavoursome but not amazing!
Coming from Australia, where Asian food is of the highest quality, I can’t recommend the food here highly enough. Big sizes, generous servings of all ingredients, quick service, and the food has not failed in quality the couple of times we have indulged. Definitely call in here. A tip, perhaps be a bit careful about the peanut content if you have allergies, and specify this when you order. Also, some of the soups are salty to the typical level of Asian food. So if you are a bit fussy on salty taste, be aware.
