Ne Zha

Ne Zha brings a thoughtful, modern lens to beloved East Asian classics in the heart of Dublin 2. Guided by a balance of tradition and creativity, it's the kind of place where the familiar is reframed with finesse, welcoming diners to rediscover favourite flavours in a new light.

The experience begins with refined small plates, from crispy enoki mushrooms to feather-light tempura prawns, each dish precise yet inviting. Handcrafted dumplings anchor the menu - think Wagyu folded into delicate parcels or prawn dumplings kissed with garlic. Across every dish, the kitchen revels in contrasts - crunch and silk, heat and nuance - without losing sight of clean, confident taste profiles.

Beyond the steamer, the kitchen moves with ease from salt and pepper selections to wok-fired staples like mapo tofu and kung pao chicken. Bowls of beef brisket noodle soup and wonton noodle soup promise deep, restorative comfort, while fried udon with prawn and chicken or curry chicken rice deliver satisfying, quietly nostalgic pleasures.

Whether marking a celebration or gathering with friends, there's a sense of warmth and story in every bite. Book a table, bring good company, and let the evening unfold - one delicious chapter at a time!
