Welcoming  

I have been to this restaurant quite a few times. It was recommended by a co-worker. The first time was during restaurant week with my daughter. I have been hooked ever since. I have never ordered anything that I was not thrilled with. I can personally recommend the pork medallions and the duck. My daughter was crazy about the steak with blue cheese topping. On Sundays they offer free Irish music. The atmosphere is so relaxing and welcoming it feels as though you are in a local Irish pub with a few friends. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone. If you go during restaurant week, you can get an appetizer, dinner, and dessert for $35.00.
