My work mates organized a get-together here at Nine Fine Irishmen. This looks like an Irish pub if the Irish pub originated in Vegas. Not bad, just not going to be like your fave Irish dive that you frequent at home.
We had reservations and they marched us upstairs. While there was plenty of room it was stone cold dead up there so seemed like we were in an empty restaurant. Food that I tried:
- beer and cheese dip: decadently cheesy with a bunch of breads to eat it with. Cheese was hard to just dip out, you have to use your fork or knife or risk stringing it all over the table. It wasn't mind blowing but still pretty tasty.
- chicken pot pie: creamy tomato broth was kind of what made it taste weird to me and the chicken was in perfect square chunks which made it seem like those frozen dinner chicken pot pies, but overall it was good. The bread covering it was soft and pillowy and delicious.
- Shepherd's pie: authentic Irish it isn't, but you are in Vegas so it is decent. I'd pick the chicken pot pie over this though...beef seemed almost ground up rather than in chunks.
- Creamed corn: home run side! How can you not like corn that has been made extremely unhealthy by being creamed?
Service was efficient and, of course, helpfully upselling. However, I like a double drink for not the full double price so I can dig it. Cost is like everything else in Vegas - bit pricey but this place isn't going to break the bank.
Overall an A-OK joint. Probably a better place to drink and get appetizers but still not bad for a full meal if you have people in your group that prefer a casual, more bar-like atmosphere.
