This may be just my pet peeve, but I've finally found an Irish pub that serves shepard's pie with beef and lamb. It was also nicely seasoned. They have a decently broad menu. The place is large and appears to have lots of seating. They have a decent selection of scotch, including 2 "scotch flights" that serve 1/2 oz. of 3 different scotches for $8. Not bad.
The service is a little inconsistent. It partly might be that they seem to have a lot of larger groups going there, but we had to wait very long to get service, and then our meals show up about 3 bites into our salads. Give us a chance to eat, please.
I would go back, but partly because that area of town is dominated by chains like Friday's.
