Noise review insights for Ireland

A Massive Decline in Quality – Chaotic, Freezing, and Disappointing I visited Hyderabadi Kitchen on a busy Saturday night in mid-February, and the entire experience was nothing short of chaotic. I actually visited this restaurant when they first opened, and back then, the ambiance, service, and food were top-notch. Unfortunately, it feels like they are taking their customers for granted now. Here is a breakdown of why this visit was so frustrating: • Freezing and Noisy Atmosphere: We were seated near the main door, which wouldn’t have been a problem if there was actually a heater to warm the place up. To make matters worse, the door must have slammed open and shut at least 100 times during our meal. Between delivery drivers rushing in and out, the constant, loud slamming noise completely ruined our appetite. • Hygiene and Layout Issues: Shockingly, kitchen staff were carrying kitchen waste and garbage right through the main restaurant passage while we were trying to eat. This is a massive issue and incredibly off-putting. • Severely Understaffed: For a busy Saturday night, there was only one server handling the floor, which heavily contributed to the chaotic environment. • Subpar Food: We ordered Biryani, Dabeli, and Chicken Fried Rice, and the quality was very poor. The Chicken Fried Rice was so overwhelmingly spicy that I couldn’t even finish half of it. • The "Bottled Water Trap": Because the food was intolerably spicy, we naturally asked for some tap water. The server told us they only serve bottled water and refused tap water. Considering they are serving excessively spicy dishes, forcing customers to pay for bottled water feels like an absolute trap. It is a real shame to see a place that started with such high standards fall this far. The service is now subpar, the dining environment is uncomfortable, and the food has lost its touch. I won't be returning anytime soon.

Food is amazing! A bit loud due to the open seating, and service was a bit slow even for a busy Saturday. But the food quality and preparation was superb and justifies 5 stars overall.

Food is good. Breakfast excels. Surfaces are grimey. Drinking glasses are dirty. I complained about it and the solution was to poor the drink from a dirty glass into a clean one. The music doesn’t set the atmosphere it could be. Hotel rooms are clean but this isn’t he hotel not was 2 years ago.

A booking made in June for a special birthday. From the outset, we were met with a cold welcome and lack of courtesy. No check either on our covid certificates. Seated at our 2 tables , the waitress recommended the red and white wines that we ordered and champagne that never arrived. She advised against ordering too many pasta dishes as there were 13 of us and the kitchen wouldn’t manage. She also detailed fish and specials that many of us ordered. Service was slow and one table ended up eating their mains as another table finished theirs. Side dishes also recommended by the waitress were in short supply. At one point, the waitress approached to say there were complaints about noise and that we weren’t spending enough. Wow! We were seated at 2 separate tables and it was no louder than any restaurant on a Saturday night. I went downstairs to query this and the waitress opened the register and pulled out receipts belonging to other customers detailing their spend. Wow! When did restaurants start doing this ? As a group, we decided our stay was no longer tenable and our plan for champagne, cocktails, desserts and cake were abandoned. Reader, we left and paid our bill of just under €1200. On leaving, another table approached us to say that they had not noticed any noise from our group and they themselves would not be returning to the restaurant. As a group of senior professionals, business owners and people who have travelled, we have never experienced anything quite like it .

A cute little restaurant delivering great food and service. We enjoyed the beautifully prepared dishes that were perfectly prepared, well balanced and beautifully presented. Service was attentive, professional and friendly. My only comment would be to look into some noise dampening measures as it became very loud at times.

A good pub for a meal and slightly cheaper than the Temple Bar area. Just lacked the live music that was listed outside which was disappointing. Food was great.

Great food, great vibe downstairs! Only downside was some very loud girls next to us (not at all the restaurants fault). Our waiter was great (Kris)

Review rating: 5.0

Sorry to say our visit was very disappointing. We were there for the pre-theatre dinner. The place was extremely busy, noise level very high. We were brought down stairs, to the basement . Beside us there was a table for 8 people, there was no one there when we were seated. Staff were very stressed, as so busy. When the 8 people arrived it turned out to be 10. They were sitting on top of us , no one even noticed, so uncomfortable, definitely not romantic. The food was only ok. We were so sorry we had not gone to another restaurant . We refrained from making a complaint as I did not think there was any point. The restaurant was so busy I did not feel it would make any difference.
