So I posted a review on their facebook page (which was originally a 2 star review), but the owner's response was less than positive, so I have reduced it to a 1 star review. I never in my life have seen an owner post something so horrible to someone reviewing their food!
This is what I posted on their facebook page..
Went for the first time today. Expected to have a wonderful shepherds pie..cuz it's Irish. It was 3/4 mashed potato..and 1/3 stew canned soup. The side? Was a soup..my guess is cuz they don't fill the pie enough. My bad..I ordered potato soup!! Worst shepherds pie experience ever. Go to Tim finnegans for a HUGE meat filled real lamb shepherds pie! only savior was the 4 dollar beer..and somewhat on the burger my uncle had. My husband despised the black and white pudding..too much sage. Also..overpriced.
Here is the response from the owner (I'm assuming it's the owner)...
You're either on Finnigans payroll or your palate is tainted by all the processed foods and sugars you eat on a regular basis. You over exagerare in your review for attention and fancy yourself a well versed food critic. Not the case my dear. Everything in our kitchen is cooked from scratch and we never used canned soups. The pudding is authentic and Irish because we have it shipped in from Ireland. If you think we're over priced, perhaps you should continue eating at McDonalds and Burger King. Best of luck in your emdeavors and don't give up your day job.
Nice huh? Anyway, no I don't give reviews for attention. I would think the owner's would want to know when something isn't right. Maybe it was a bad day? Who knows, but someone who can't take criticism in the restaurant business, maybe shouldn't be in the restaurant business!
Cheers!
