I love going to Farren's for lunch. I had somehow managed to forget about the place for a while, and when I went back it was better than I remembered. I usually get the Steak Salad, which is excellent.
I'm writing this review specifically to point something else out, though: Farren's is an absolutely wonderful place to bring my 17-month-old daughter. The waitress with the curly red hair (whose name I don't know, unfortunately) offered us fruit and oyster crackers for her as soon as we sat down. Later, since there isn't a traditional "kid's menu," she offered to make a cheese quesadilla, which I took her up on. It might seem funny to take a kid to a bar, but it works out great for us. We can have high-quality adult food and she is accommodated as well as (or, in my opinion better than) in any "kid-friendly" chain restaurant.
