Very happy I gave the oysters a second try because this time they were excellent. Always gotta love some chilled Tito's to pair with.
- Don't sleep on the Grilled Caesar. The grill chars on the Romaine hearts are perfect. Thick-cut bacon pieces round it out.
Eric AndersenAugust 18, 2016The Scotch Egg is a great little appetizer — just keep in mind it's only one egg
- The Tralee flatbread with steak was best thing I've had and I've tried 75% of the menu
- As you'd expect, they still have kinks to work out and I trust they will. So far so good.
- The burger is now much better. Pulled pork and French toast are excellent. They need to fix the wifi.
BeckyJuly 10, 2016fancy gin and tonic had way too much rosemary and sage muddled in it. my breath tasted herbal for hours after drinking it.- Corned Beef Reuben wasn't bad. Didn't burst with flavor, but what Irish food does? 😜
- Wow...I should have known better than to order oysters, but they were worse than expected. Of the half dozen, only four had an actual oyster in the shell, and another tasted like sewer water. Avoid.
Alan MalabananMay 18, 2017$7 20 oz Guinness on tap, $16 Shepard's [sic] pie - tasty, but small portions. If you're hungry be prepared to pay extra.
KateMay 20, 2017Online the website says they have gluten free options, in restaurant, they do not have any. Avoid for food if you truly need gluten free food.
Enrico ManaloJanuary 17, 2018The burger . . . well, I remember I got a burger, but not at all what it tasted like, though I do distinctly remember that the bacon was rather floppy.
