We were looking for are to a more traditional Irish pudding with food, beer, music but instead got good food, Irish food, decor, and dance club music that was too loud to enjoy a conversation. We left after the appetizer.

We showed up 30 minutes late for our reservation due to parking garage issues. They were very kind and had our table ready. Food came out quickly and was excellent. We were in a time crunch for The Chicago Theater but had no problem making it. I would definitely return!

Very festive! Service was great, and we were happy that hosts were able to accommodate us earlier than our scheduled reservation. Our table had the fish and chips, classic Mac and cheese, Shawarma bowl, fried pickles, and cheese curds. Everything was delicious!

Food was just okay. Although our waitress was very nice, we were often waiting a very long time for things and she couldn't seem to handle our requests. She'd often ask. " Is there anything else I can get you," she'd kind of walk away while we were telling her the things we wanted or needed. Also, was crazy hot in there.
