Visited Xian Street Food in Dublin and had a really good experience! Tried the Spice Bag, Fried Rice, Noodles, and a few other dishes — everything was tasty, fresh, and came out nice and hot. The Spice Bag especially hit the spot — crispy chicken, plenty of flavour, and just the right amount of heat.
What I really liked is that it’s a great value for money — generous portions, quick service, and plenty of tasty options that don’t break the bank. The place has a casual, relaxed vibe, perfect for a quick meal or a casual hangout with friends.
Overall, a solid spot for good Chinese street food at budget-friendly prices. Definitely worth a visit if you’re around the city and craving something tasty and satisfying!

I managed to try the spice bag on a not so busy day! Along with the spice bag, I tried the bao buns with stewed beef and the sweet potatoes noodles with chicken. It all smelled amazing. I took it for takeaway. I recommend eating there or rather sooner. By the time I got home the buns were soggy, spice bag a bit stale and noodles hardened.

We tried the spicy vegetarian fried rice, spicy shrimp chilli, and the chicken spice bag, and every dish was bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked. The staff were friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even better.
A fantastic spot for bold, delicious flavors; highly recommended, especially if you’re winding down from a night in the pubs and want a quick, satisfying bite.

The spice bag is TO DIE FOR! If you’re in Dublin for a city break or you live nearby and yet haven’t indulged, you should! It’s not far from the high street of shops and the menu is fairly cheap. If you’re going around lunch time the place will most likely be bustling but it’s worth the short wait. The staff are very kind and ensure that you’ve had a positive experience! Would recommend to all.

I only went here to try the Spice Bag as my kids told me I had to have it as it’s a trending thing on social media. I opted to have the curry sauce side which was a good recommendation from the server. It was actually really nice.
Place was busy, but worked efficiently. I managed to get 1 seat inside. Try the famous Spice Bag if you are around the area as its tasty and good value.

the spice bag is so worth the hype! super flavourful and a really good quantity and filling for a person alone. we also got the biang biang noodles in chicken and beef but it was just nice nothing to write home about. really good portion size though – we had to end up taking half of it as takeaway. I’m definitely coming here again to get a spice bag. service is a bit slow too… it took half an hour for me to get my biang biang noodles.

Xian Street Food in Dublin was more of a hit and miss experience. The Bao Bun with Szechuan Chicken was magnificent-incredibly soft with delicious, perfectly spiced chicken. Skipping the famous Spice Bag for the Crispy and Chilli Chicken paid off; it was the absolute highlight and tasted amazing.
However, be cautious with other items: the Nasi Goreng was very average with a fish stench, and the House Fried Chicken is definitely avoidable. Go for the buns and the chilli chicken! One final note: this is an extremely small outlet with very few seats, though we were lucky to find some space during peak lunch hour.

The famous spice bag was amazing but was not a huge fan of the other dishes as I felt they lacked flavour in comparison (as did my partner). Could do with more inside seating as it gets really busy and packed. However, staff can’t be faulted and service is rapid.

BEST SPICE BAG EVER
for €9.5 this was life-changing.
Also carried it into murphy’s icecream afterwards and it smelled so good, everyone kept asking where we got it from and the employees said it is their fave spot too.
This is the sign you have been looking for to choose this place. I will be shocked if it doesn’t live up to the hype.

Very crowded but it makes sense as it was post Christmas and many other places closed early or weren’t open in the later part of the evening. A lot of crowd so opted for takeaway although we initially planned to sit in. Ordered vegetarian mapo tofu and asked for extra spice, which they delivered superbly! Tasted very good too, with the requested amount of numbingness from the sichuan peppercorns. However, it was very oily,a lot more oilier than most mapo tofus I had and I had to drain out a good chunk of the oil. The box was packed to the brim (took the pic after I started eating) and the packaging is expertly sealed as there was no oil spillage when I was taking it home. Would gladly come back and try other dishes they have next time!
