Govindas - Dublin

Awesome..I am not a vegetarian but this may be some of the best food I've had in Dublin glad it came up on trip advisor! Name is weird for an Indian vegetarian place but the food is delicious

Very disappointed. Vegetarian Indian food can be absolutely marvellous but this was just tasteless slop piled high and all on an admittedly low price for Dublin. I can't believe how bland Indian food can be. It's tops for quantity but not quality. Sorry Govindas.

I was in the city of Dublin and looked at the reviews of this place. It is more like a cafe style. You take a small or large plate. Small for 10.50 Euros or large for 14.95. We picked up a large plate which has brown or white rice, daal, cabbage potato’s subji, another potato dish, either paneer or tofu dish. Each day are different dishes. On the day we went most dishes contained potatoes. I paid €29.99 for both of us not knowing that my husband anctually swapped for a smaller dish. I asked the girl working there for a refund of €4.95 but as most Indian vendors it was an issue for her to give the refund. She made an excuse that she would come back to me when she is able to do it but we had finished our meal and found she was still not sure whether refund could be made to me. Rather than waiting there I opted to take a piece of cheese cake instead which was €3.95 a slice and cut my losses. Would I go there again? No I wouldn’t because the dishes were a bit bland and mainly potatoes. Daal was very watery and not much taste. No man bread or roti. It is ok if you want to be sure about vegetarian food as they do only veg dishes otherwise I would spend may be double the amount but have a decent and tasty food from elsewhere. I also noticed that they did not include salad and had to be purchased separately.

I love Govindas cheap, wholesome food with lots of flavour. I always feel full after eating here, and energised because it is a good, wholefoods based meal. There are lots of different items on a plate, and they offer both sit in and takeaway. I even brought a non vegan/vegetarian friend here and she loved it. The owner is always very pleasant to deal with.
