Mayo restaurant named best takeaway in Connaught

JUST EAT, Ireland’s leading online food ordering and delivery service, with over 1,800 takeaway restaurants online, held its third annual National Takeaway Awards on Tuesday evening in Dublin Fallon and Byrne where leaders in the takeaway restaurant sector gathered to celebrate the best takeaway restaurants and dishes.

There were over 20 categories this year, with consumers in Connaught able to vote for any take-out restaurant in the province.

Danolla’s in Castlebar beat off stiff competition from three Galway restaurants and one Sligo restaurant to pick up the coveted award for Best Takeaway Connaught.

The awards are the first in Ireland to recognise the quality of food, choice and service consistently delivered by this important sector of the food services industry.

Hosts Pippa O’Connor Ormond and Brian Dowling handed out awards to winners in 20 categories including best takeaway Chinese, best takeaway salad, best takeaway Mexican and best takeaway Ireland.

Tallaght-based Chinese takeaway Ly Garden received thousands of votes to be named the overall best takeaway in Ireland at the awards ceremony.
