My first time to eat here was during Saint Pattys day, and I loved the ambiance which was a real authentic Irish pub. It was packed and people were really enjoying. I had the Dinner in Dublin Weekly Special with comes with either a Bloody Mary, Mimosa or a Screwdriver. The service was great, the staff were very friendly and they really make sure your request and needs are attended to. Went back to try their entry for the First Annual Downtown Burger Slam which was the Guinness Braised Short Rib Burger and it was delicious. The Guinness Onion Gravy elevated the flavor of the burger. The picture would speak for themselves, cheers!

I wish I was able to write a full review as this place looked really good, however thats not the case for me. Wanting a good lunch, as soon as my wife and I walked in with our baby, we were stopped by an employee who told us we werent allowed in because you have to be 21 and up to enterhe was pointing to the fact that we had a baby with us, a baby. This is a pub but it also serves food as it has a whole menu and lots of seating away from the bar for eating. Keep in mind this is 12 oclock on a Wednesday and were being denied entry for having a 7 month old baby with us. I know the food and drink industry and I know the rules. If there is food being served and a menu in place, this should have not been a violation. If you want to make an argument, most places would have a curfew of when they stop letting in underage customers which would be nighttime, and this was 12:00pm..but again we are talking about having lunch with our infant accompanying us. Maybe the employee didnt want a baby in the restaurant, but still there were maybe only five other customers dining at the time. Looking back I should have inquired more or asked to speak with the manager but either way we were greatly let down, and slightly offended, as we were very excited to try some good authentic Irish food. That being said, if you have kids or even an infant, dont bother coming in for lunch in the middle of the day.
