Biang Biang review: A lesson in why reviewers should hold off until a restaurant has been up and running for a few weeks


Our critic is thrilled that her second time was a charm at this irresistibly authentic Chinese noodle restaurant that’s just opened its doors in Dublin

I went back to Biang Biang for a return visit before writing this review. I’m glad I did because the experience was so much better the second time around.

A few weeks back, I wanted to eat at Biang Biang during its first few days in operation. Six of us pitched up on a Saturday afternoon — the restaurant doesn’t take reservations — and it was only when we were seated that it became clear they’d sold out of a lot of dishes and hadn’t yet started offering others, despite them being listed on the menu.
