Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great restaurant. The dishes were substantial - and both the thai green chicken curry and a chicken with oyster sauce dish included fresh vegetables that has been nicely cooked. Pad thai was of a high standard too. Busy when we got there at 7.30 on a Saturday night and it took a bit of time to seat us and other customers (all of whom had reservations). But the place coped well and got a bit quieter as the evening went by.

Superb food and super staff especially Cynthia she was very good and very professional. The ambience of the restaurant is wonderful and the room was warm. We had curry for mains and wow fab and we couldn’t eat dessert as we were stuffed. Keep up the good work

This was a nice choice for dinner on a rainy Saturday evening. We arrived to a busy restaurant, but were seated right away. We ordered two different versions of the pad Thai, and it came out after a reasonable length of time - yummy and warm. No complaints. The "service" itself was practically non-existent (we had to flag people down to help us with drinks, etc.) but the tasty food made this OK.

Picked up takeaway menu on 12th July and proceeded to order that evening. Told that prices were no longer valid. Main courses priced at E10.95 were now E12.95, an increase of over 18%. Personally I would have left it but other members of party, tired from trucking around Kerry, decided not to seek an alternative. Have been going to Killarney 2-3 times per year for the last 35 years. Gone for summer holidays, festivals, 4th July, Christmas Parade, concerts at INEC. And have always frequented the Genting Thai, going back to when it was in the Main Street Mall. Dined out on the street during Covid. But NEVER again folks. Be honest with your customers. Don't overpromise and under-delivery. Maybe spend some of the increased price on new menus?

The waitress they didn't understand really what we wanted and they did came for ask if is everything was good or if we need dessert or... whenever. Wasn't polite and not smiling. Luck of good manners. The rice was very dry and mine was very chilly and was inspected because in the menu wasn't mentioned that was chilly. The jasmine tea was too bitter.

Booked a table for a family birthday for 5pm . When we arrived the manager was rude as three of our party were children. When our order came they brought the wrong main course. They took the meal away for ten minutes only to return with the same main meal insisting it was what we had ordered. It was cold and wasn’t eaten. The mixed platter starter was inedible. Mostly a mix of minced chicken and a dry spare rib. Would definitely not recommend going again.

So we made a reservation for 7 got seated at about 7:15 outside in the cold and said they’d give a table inside when one was free. Next they came out asked us to stay outside and offered a free drink for the table which was reasonable we ordered and waited for our food. Starter was out within 15 mins which was lovely. We waited and waited for our mains I had to actually walk in 1 hour later at 8:45 to find out what the story with our mains was it was 9:10 before it was out and it was cold. Cold chips rice and our mains we had ordered. To say we weren’t impressed was an understatement! Now I know they were busy but they forgot about us and another table that was made stay outside also, and our food was cold which isn’t great service, we left feeling hungry as we couldn’t eat the main. So overall not very impressed, will have to come back during the year maybe at an earlier less busier time to see is the food actually nice as most of the reviews are good so I will have to see!!

We went there on a recent visit to Killarney and decided to give the place a try as it looked nice from the outside. When we arrived round 7.30 pm the only seating available was outside so we were happy with this as the area is heated. The menus arrived pretty promptly and although we waited a while to place out order we were happy enough to soak up the buzz. Our starter arrived around 15 mins after we placed the order. A young couple at the table next to us also placed their order at same time as us and they only wanted mains. Their drinks arrived for them a few mins later. 35 mins or so.passed and neither is or young couple had any sign of a main arriving or had anyone came to our tables to take our empty plates from starter or apologise for the delay. The young lady eventually went to the counter and was told it would be out in a few mins. They waited a further 10 mins and left. We waited a further 15 mins and then decided it was time for us to leave too. We went in to counter a floor manger could not offer no explanation for what happened and then proceeded to charge us full whack for what we had drank and eaten. I thought this was unacceptable and defo would not return to this place again.

Very disappointed with our meal here. We went on Saturday night we had a reservation for 8pm & were not seated until 8:40. People without reservations were seated before us. They seemed to be overbooked but yet, didn't turn anyone away. It's a poor system for those with reservations. We complained 3 times as it was too late to eat anywhere else. 40 mins is too long to wait for your 'reserved' table.

Horrible customer service, extremely arrogant and rude male waiter. If we didn’t have the bottle of wine opened we would of left, it was that bad. Very short with us, when ordering the waiter kept asking anything else, anything else, anything else after one person ordered. I’ve never experienced this service in my life. Honestly horrible experience. Food was good but the duck pancake sides were gone off, the carrot was brown and the scallions were like plastic. Since moving, I’ve found the Thai staffing to be a serious let down. Always rushing you out the door.

Fabulous setting but that's about it. Food arrived quickly but the sweet and sour was sickeningly sweet and the chicken wasn't crispy at all. Egg fried rice looked closer to pilau or plain basmati with a bit of turmeric in it, certainly no egg in it anyway. Also very pricey, mains are €13.50 which is fair enough but rice etc is separate and minimum €3 extra, "egg" fried rice was €4 extra, and for a small enough portion. Even at some of the fancier Asian places I've eaten at I've never seen more than €2 extra for fried rice. Took a half hour to get someone's attention to get our bill, not the fault of the waiters may I add, it looked like there were two waiters between 20-30 tables, they were run off their feet. Arrived with the bill but not the card machine, which we were another few minutes waiting for. Tables also very close together, basically no social distancing although waiters were wearing visors at least.

It was extremely overpriced for what we got. Food was too sweet and one dish was not very warm.The waiter said that sides came with the meal but when I found out that I was charged for each side I was extremely annoyed and disappointed. I will never go back there again and I will most certainly not reccomend it to anyone.

Very disappointed by this restaurant. I called on Sunday to make a booking for 7.30pm for two people and was happily surprised when they were taking bookings for outdoor dining as a lot of places are not doing this at the moment The reason I made the booking was that everywhere was so packed and I knew it would be difficult to get a seat anywhere in town. We arrived ten minutes early and the male at the door told me he is not taking any bookings as they are so busy and asked when I called etc. I showed him on my phone the time that I called etc. He turned us away and said the booking should not have been taking. He was so rude and could not even look me in the eye when speaking to me. unbeleivable rudeness

Food was honestly not the best, I didn't finish it and the egg fried rice didn't taste nice. The crispy sweet and sour chicken also wasn't really that nice compared to other stuff I've tasted. I was hoping the place would be as nice as it looks but it's not really. They also got one of our orders wrong and put duck instead of beef. Wouldn't recommend and I think the other Thai place in town is much nicer (Khao)

The food was hit and miss. My starter, vegetable tempura, was nice but I have never seen chips (potato) made into tempura... But my partner’s sesame chicken was a bit dry and tasted frozen, he wasn’t impressed by this. For a main I ordered vegetable pad Thai as I’m a vegetarian, which was completely tasteless and had no flavour at all and very soggy and over cooked. I had to add lots of lime and salt to get it to taste anything. When ordering I informed the server I wanted there to be tofu and he ensured me there will be tofu in the vegetable pad Thai. However when the dish arrived there was only around 3 small pieces of tofu. My partner had the “sizzling” crispy beef which he said was nice but definitely didn’t arrive sizzling. All over the restaurant looked nice and clean, but I wouldn’t be back for the food. The portion sizes were good but for what it was and the flavour and taste of the food it was not worth the price.
