Nicole MayorgaAugust 12, 2014Best Irish food I have had in a long long time...just like my nanas! Must try the Fish & Chips,Shepherds Pie, Celtic Stew and so much more!!
Brady GrimDecember 5, 2014Great steamed mussels and French onion soup along with a wide selection of beer.
The legit depressing Irish music adds to the ambience and reminds me of that one scene from The Other Guys. "It was consensual..."
Great place to grab a drink or dinner before going to the movies.

Angela HenzFebruary 25, 2011The staff was so friendly! The restaurant itself was beautiful and the food was delicious! Definately coming back!
Get goat cheese on the lamb burger. Tell them Greg told you to do it.
Deb OSeptember 8, 2011Zucchini Bread, Seafood Chowder, Creme Brulee and Bailey's Cheesecake = SOOO good!!!
Try the beer. It makes the people and the place much nicer.
Kasey PosaJune 20, 2010OMG...This place has THE BEST live music & great drinks! SO glad we found it!
- Jim HassertFebruary 1, 2010Play the pub quiz. Too much fun. Ask for when it's played...normally Wednesday or Thursday nights.
TUESDAY & THURSDAY is SERVICE INDUSTRY NIGHT.... DomesticBuckets of Beer $10!!!! After 10!
Come Wednesdays at 9 for $3 dollar blue moons and the pub quiz
Gretchen HarrisSeptember 24, 2011Do NOT buy the crabfeast... You don't get a two hour seating, they make you wait in looping lines for food and then they run out of plates so you can't eat ANYTHING. I think not.
BillMarch 18, 2013They apparently have all the business they need because they can't do carry out. Won't be going back.
