   Our waitress was so attentive, bubbly and amicable! She was ready to attend to our every need. She was so enthusiastic with her two cute space buns in her hair.

   Last dinner spent in Dublin. We have had Chinese food from all over the world, and we really enjoyed our dinner at Big Fan. The chef provided authentic tasting Chinese with a modern twist.

    People are too loud as place is small and you hear them a lot. Can not have pleasure from the food eaten. Can not hear my friend talking as Customers around are too loud, treating the place as pub and not a restaurant. It should be a rule that the staff will politely calm the nosiest Customers. Overall lovely design and good food.

    We came based on a recommendation - while pork bun was good the dumplings were rubbery and tepid, the flank steak not good strong strange flavour and not great beef or cooked well when u think of all the great Irish beef there is here hard to fathom, cocktails v poor sugarey and artificial Flavouring and no punch, green vegetables raw and not properly prepared or cooked - sea bass nice but not hot Luke warm - the service was poor it was a special occasion and we we were told half way through meal when we had to leave - the food is expensive as is the drink and there is absolutely nothing special about the food or Service - look for somewhere else to spend your hard earned cash to treat someone - charmless and not good food - Dublin is better than this

    We are very sorry that our place was not to your taste. As you can see the review you left is quite the opposite to the reviews we normally receive? In regards to price, we can guarantee you that we are good value as we know are margins and they prove to be exceptionally good value to our customers. Our greens are steamed and done so on a timer each time, It's how we believe they should be served to maintain the integrity of the produce. Booking with us you are informed of the 1.45hr sitting.

    Really buzzy and delicious menu of very tasty chinese tapas - lots of vegetarian options too. Spicy Taiwanese Chicken and the Crayfish Dumplings and Steamed Greens were some of my favourites. Great cocktails and wine by the carafe. Service was so efficient and friendly. Planning my next visit already.

    First time eating at Big Fan, it definitely lived up to the positive reviews I had heard from friends! We ate outside in a covered over area, it was way nicer than I expected. Food, beer and wine was all delicious. Great, friendly service.

    Really good food, really nice vibe - fair bit of a downer = when we asked for the bill, our server remarked somewhat sourly on how we had out-stayed our allocated time… the place still had many empty tables and our bill was hefty (as was the tip) so, suggest, a little more charm from the staff wouldn’t go amiss - otherwise good place to eat

    Great food which of course is the focal point! Was a bit loud but then again it is a small enough place. Staff were great, really friendly and the service was very quick. Definitely will be back to try some more of the menu ☺️

Thank you guys, you made our night!
