We decided to try something new for lunch, and we were not disappointed. Ill start with the reasons I didnt give them 5 stars: We couldnt determine whether it was open seating or if we were to wait to be seated...there were no signs. After standing there for a few minutes, a server came by and said its open seating. We sat on the patio for several minutes before we saw someone and were able to ask for menus. The service lacked professionalism. This is most likely because its a new place and they just need some time to get their staff together. Our server was VERY nice and helpful, but we had to ask for everything...menus, tableware, condiments, and the check. The server who brought out our drinks carried them with her hand over the top of the glass, fingers around the rims. Two separate times, two separate servers brought meals to our table that werent ours. Im thinking theyre just learning table numbers or starting to get organized. It is a new place, so its understandable. On to the most important thing and the reason I gave this place 4 Stars: The food was DELICIOUS! It was fresh, the portions were huge, and it was just pretty freakin yummy all around. I ordered the Avocado Caprese and a side of salmon. The caprese was the best Ive ever had. The salmon was cooked perfectly. Like, perfectly. My companion had the Kilkenny salad and it was gigantic. Once again, the produce was extremely fresh and she said the salad was awesome. I was VERY impressed with the food. Im certain the staff will improve, and I will be back to find out.

Sooooo goooood! Talk about Irish comfort food! I had the shepherds pie (authentic, made with lamb, not cottage pie made with beef), and my husband had the Irish curry. We were both swimming in ecstacy even if we didnt outwardly display it (we are shy and reserved people). I had a side salad with my shepherds pie that included a house made champagne vinaigrette and it was SO DELISH! I heard another lady raving about it and asking to take some home with her, I dont blame her! You guys should sell that stuff bottled! We also had the Irish bread pudding for desert and that was so fantastic, desert is my favorite course and I was not disappointed in the slightest! Highly recommend this place to anyone! Would love to take my mom here! OH! And the PRICE! Quite reasonable considering the quality of food and the amount of it that you get! We are originally from Wichita Falls and this place is like the Pelican there, its a bit on the pricey side but soooo worth it considering the quality and quantity of food! We had been looking for a similar place and I think we certainly found it!

Honestly, the best bar food experience Ive ever had. Ive been to countless bars in my life but this one is just unbelievable when it comes to the food and beer selection. It does not have the very dark cosy atmosphere like Im used to when going to an irish pub but they have very nice comfortable chairs and good sports channels. Definitely try the mussels and stuffed avodado as an appetizer. The Reuben Sandwich was amazing best fries in the world... Loved the Killians red ale irish lager beer. Very friendly and attentive staff. My new downtown bar!

- Killians and a shot of Jameson $8 - nuff said! - Try the Scotch Eggs, I recently came back from England and Ireland, the Scotch Eggs here are FAR better, so much better actually I was completely let down by the European counterparts. - Ive been coming here since the first week they opened. While the staff has turned over a bit I can say without exception the service and experience is consistently great. A perfect first stop downtown if you are traveling, new to town, or just looking to check out downtown Dallas!

My waiter was fantastic! I ordered the Bangers and Mash at his suggestion. My meal was delivered promptly with a side of gravy like no other! By far the best Bangers and Mash I have had. And the gravy took it over the top. The beer selection is nice and varied. Personally would like to see a couple of Belgiums, but it is the height of summer. Very, very happy I stopped in for dinner!

Had the crafty coffee and the duck wings. Made a go fantastic little pick-me-up. The portion on the duck was huge! They were pretty spectacular as well. I stripped every last bit of food off the bone. They also have a pretty good beer/whiskey combo special. Plenty of TVs and while the volume is a bit loud, it would be a good place to catch a game.

Food was excellent, inside was too crowded, so we went to the outside tables, had to move again to a table away from the sidewalk as the canopy didnt fully cover those tables and water was dripping on us. Staff was very nice and accommodating though, service was great and we were served quickly.

My husband and I stopped in for dinner. The beer was cold, the food was amazing, the service was prompt and friendly, and the prices were extremely reasonable! Couldnt have picked a better place! I definitely recommend the Scotch Eggs, the Corned Beef Cabbage Rolls, and the Bangers and Mash.

The crab dip was amazing and the pretzels where really good too. They played really fun and light hearted irish music until the happy hour crowd started to come it. Great service and the prices were good too.

Was in town for the Womens Final Four. First time visiting downtown. Stopped in here just to eat and ended up staying the whole night. Nice selection of local beer. Food was great. Staff extremely friendly.

This place is extremely awesome, manager is friendly, food is delicious (try the scotch eggs) beer selection is extensive, and you get to buy 5oz beer glasses which makes it better to try more beer!!

I come here for the Scotch Eggs, the other pub staples like fish and chips and the shepherds pie are also very good. Bartenders are always cordial and maintain a good neighborhood atmosphere.

One of my new favorite places. Their weekday happy hour is amazing, not to mention the actual food. Weve also had one of the greatest waitresses each time. Love it!

Excellent food, delish drinks, and really good service. We will be back. Try the Irish breakfast and the scotch eggs. The mustard sauce with the eggs is divine.
