I wouldn't say there was anything 'special' about this place, as it was your basic American Irish Pub trying to be Irish. The food portions were grand, and I will say their food was quite tasty. The service was what I expected - average, so no surprise there. Overall I would say that I was neutral about this restaurant. It met my need to consume food for energy and survival, and outside of that, it didn't 'wow' me in any way.
