| - Eh. I decided to come here one evening with my wife and brother as we were hungry, wanted to try something new, and didn't want to venture far from the house. I pass this place regularly, so we decided on this place.
The place is pretty large on the inside. A pretty large bar on one side, and then the dining area on the other. There also seemed to be two areas that could serve as private dining areas for parties. We happened to be the only diners (there were folks at the bar) when we went in. We were going to sit at the bar, but my wife forgot her ID, so we had to move to the dining area.
I thought the decor was pretty decent. I've never been to Ireland, so I can't say what an actual Irish Pub looks like, but it had "Irish" items around. It was more open than other Irish Pubs I've been to.
I did like the beer selection. Quite a few Irish beers, as well as others from the UK. The only domestics were the mass produced and the psuedo-craft Blue Moon. I had a Carlsberg for $4.50 which wasn't too bad.
There was not the selection of "Irish" food that I was expecting, more "inspired" dishes. I had the nachos, my wife had the fettuccine Alfredo, and my brother had dessert. My nachos were ok, pretty standard. They use real cheese, so that is a bonus. My wife's dinner was a massive portion, but wasn't too flavorful. My brother enjoyed his pie.
I probably wouldn't come back just to eat, but I would to drink, or to have a private party.
