| - The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because the appetizers we're good.
We decided to go to Limericks because none of us had been there. So for boyfriends mothers birthday we decided to go there.
To start we ordered the Baby Stuffed Yorkshires -Freshly made mini Yorkshire puddings filled with slow roasted Alberta Beef and served with Original Horseradish Mayo and jus. And the Lamb and Guinness Cheddar Sliders - A trio of fresh made mini Lamb burgers topped with imported Guinness Cheddar cheese, crispy onions and red onion marmalade.
The appetizers were really good, but then things went downhill from there.
Our sever was no where to be seen for some time and when she was around there was no sparkle and she seemed extremely bored.. or high.. I'm not sure which.
Anyway for our mains
Boyfriend - Spicy Philly Cheese Steak
Slow cooked roast beef piled high with banana peppers, onions and sautéed peppers then drizzled with warm cheese sauce on a grilled baguette.
The cheese sauce looked and smelled like the cheese sauce you get out of a 7-11 Nacho cheese dispenser. The beef didn't seem like it was cooked in au jus at all, it seemed like it was cooked in a steam table or a microwave, and was dry. The fries were burned. The toppings we're almost non- existent. Boyfriend isn't usually one to complain about food, but he was pretty grossed out by this one. Even took to calling them "bush league".
Boyfriend Mom- Surprise surprise... she had the steak sandwich again. She seemed pleased with it, and the only complaint she had was there was no seasoning on the steak. Boyfriend and I looked at it, and there wasn't even a speck of pepper or salt of steak rub. The vegetables she had as a side clearly came out of a bag and had again seasoning.
I had - Cornish Game Hen (half portion)
Free range Game Hen slow roasted to perfection, served with housemade stuffing, Irish champ and its own pan gravy.
First of all it wasn't a Cornish game hen.. it was CLEARLY a chicken, which wasn't cooked all the way through. I thought i was seeing things, but then i double checked with boyfriend and he confirmed it was raw as well. It came with a stupid sprig of fresh rosemary on it that was entirely for decoration. The stuffing was dry and overcooked and what i think was the Irish champ looked like something my cat threw up on the carpet the other day. The only thing that was good about the meal was the potatoes, and there was very little of those.
Very disappointing.. will not be back for a while.
