Chicken Fajitas

“Great local dive bar with live music on the weekends. They pour a stiff cocktail, and the prices are fair. They don't serve food. However, there is a Mexican restaurant next door that offers takeout, or there will sometimes be a food truck that will pop by. My only minor gripe is that it is an Irish bar in name only. They have some Irish decor around the bar, but they don't have Guinness on tap, which is really a shame. It's a decent spot to watch a game, but they could use a few more TVs.“

“I was told that Cassidy's in Newport Beach had the best burgers in town. I was out on a motorcycle ride today and supet hungry so stopped in for a bacon cheeseburger, fries. Ok, so they don't serve fries (bummer) but I have to admit they really do make a damn good burger 😋 in this little "Dive Beach Bar".
I'm not kidding or exaggerating these folks do a really great burger. 😋
If you like great burgers you gotta stop by. Enjoy 😋
