This Irish classic adjoins a huge Irish retail gift store with high-quality Irish merchandise. The food is exquisite. The chocolate cake is by far and away the best in the neighbourhood, and the service is friendly, considerate, and impeccable. The atmosphere is not stuffy. The regulars at the separate bar are gracious and connected, and the local movers and shakers. The typical steakhouse is Jake's in Riverdale. This one is where the old timers go. It is our Cheers in Riverdale.
It really depends on who you get here for service as the weekend staff are indifferent and the weekday staff are phenomenal. Inattentive and untrained as they are on the weekends, you notice a difference in the presentation. Also, refills are only if you disturb them. Instructed to add coulis to the plated cake, they failed. Notice the difference in the photos. Coulis, raspberry or chocolate, is critical to the taste and texture of mousse. It is not decoration. They need to retrain the weekend staff.
Quick turn around on a take out order. Big juicy burger with extra thick cut fries. Really hit the spot when I was super hungry. I've also dined in once at this comfy pub. Large wrap around bar and lots of table seating. Had a big Caesar salad and crab cakes. Food consistently good. Prices reasonable for amount and quality of food. I have a feeling I'll be returning as a regular.
