I've had lunch here too many times for it to be acceptable because of the location is so close to my office. The patio is lovely, and the service is quite quick despite the lunchtime rush with everyone from the nearby office buildings flocking here for a midday pick-me-up.
The food has improved a lot since last year, but the quality of the dishes are still pretty inconsistent. The shepherd's pie was the worst of the bunch, with the ground meat (beef? sheep?) swimming in a pool of grease and defrosted vegetable water. The Blarney Chips is also really strange tasting, and the only comparison I can draw is that the waffle fries taste a little bit like cleaning supplies (at least you know that the food is clean) This taste doesn't apply to the other Fionn location on Front St., so the taste of bleach and Windex is exclusive to this location.
There are definite winners on the menu, however, and the tikki masala is quite filling and delicious. Definitely not authentic by any means, but it's pretty tasty according to my unfamiliar-with-real-Indian-cuisine taste buds. The chicken pie is also really good: piping hot and fluffy crust. Mmmmm.
I know I'm going to come back for a cider and some pie again during lunch or a quick drink after work, so this place is a little more than A-OK, but the inconsistent experiences does not make me want to be a fan.
