| - im torn between 3 or 4 stars.
The place is really nice, there isn't a lot of seating but from what I can see the crowd isn't that big either. Awesome tap selection, I can't remember what exactly they had but they had a great selection of domestic (microbreweries) as well as imports. The menu is very Italian based, they do have your normal pub fare however.
I ordered the Irish nachos (curly fries topped with cheese, black olive, onion, jalapeno, bacon, and tons of other stuff) They were fucking brilliant.
I also got the southern cal pizza (I can't remember what was on it) and it was really good too, not gourmet or anything but exactly what you would want from a pub pizza.
The only problem I encountered here was when our food was held up for 45 minutes, for some reason our table was not served while everyone else was. The waitress should've addressed this herself but when we (politely) brought it up the manager promptly came to our table and promised that it was a mistake in the kitchen and that we would get our food shortly, as well as him half pricing our food.
He did everything he said he would. So I won't hold it against them, although thats probably the reason I didn't feel it was a 4 star experience. I believe it was an honest mistake though.
one more thing that I can't really blame them on is that this place seems to attract people with kids, shortly after we arrived a group of parents with TODDLERS were there letting them run amok much to the distaste of everyone in the back part. The pub itself doesn't have anything to appeal to kids so I don't know why them and another woman with her 11 year old daughter were there at 8pm on a Friday but they were. Again I can't blame this on the pub itself but I've never seen kids in any other bar at this time of day (and on a friday!)
all in all though, good food and a great beer selection on the danforth make this a great pub, im sure it will be worth 4 stars the next time I go.
Get the irish nachos
