Favorite place for Irish food in Evanston. Fish and chips are superb. Shepard's pie is also amazing

This is one of the best restaurants. First and Foremost, Liz, Patrick, and Rachel could not be nicer hosts. Their split pea soup is amazing. Fish and chips, corned beef, and burgers are so good. We were in town for three nights and went there 4 times. HIGHLY recommend!!!!

Love this place for its good food and consistency. Delicious salmon salad . Served Fish and chips, which my Father loved. Music, when they have it, is very good. The used to serve tea on Wednesdays---unsure if they still do.

Happened upon this place when we were looking for a decent dinner after dropping our daughter off at college. Our expectations were low as the previous night we ate at a similar looking taproom and the food was almost inedible. However what a PLEASANT surprise!! I got a fried goat cheese salad topped with salmon. Everything was very fresh and delicious. My husband got a burger and had no complaints. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. They do serve you water in small plastic cups (which is a little odd) but if you are looking for a good meal - Celtic won't disappoint.

Good food, interesting decor, lengthy Irish menu. Service a bit slow for week night.

Usually restaurants with this kind of menu give me hesitation- like fish n chips, bangers n mash - because many of these dishes are terrible at many restaurants. Not this one. We had a delicious meal here last night and sat outside with a puppy!The crispy salmon on risotto and peas was delicious and was my bangers n mash - very tasty and tender sausages and delicious gravy. The corned beef and cabbage was also very good.Our only complaint was our server who was competent but absolutely no personality, and he disappeared after our meal was served and we had to go in and pay.

If you can't make it to Ireland just now, come to Celtic Knot for an authentic dive into the cuisine!The owners have gone out of their way to bring your order as if you were there.Large cod fish & perfectly done thick fries (chips) are SO good ! Turkey burger is homemade! I had the chicken/ham pot pie that had vegetables & potatoes with a puff pastry on top. Hot & Delicious!!Great Irish bar! Interior almost replicatesan Irish pub. Friendly staff! Good selection of Irish beers. We'll be back to try Shepard's pie among other menu items.Thank-You owners' (get their names for us would you?) for our culinary trip to your wonderful country! See you soon!

Really nice folks. Great pub food. And a pint of Guinness poured properly.
Terrific gathering spot for groups small and large who appreciate the varieties of Irish favorite dishes and brews! Private room space available for special occasion parties, musicians & music lovers, and profound writers! On Saint Patrick's Day and during the Leprechauns' Merry Month of March, please do be prepared for unexpected frivolities!

Pretty cool looking place. Beer was good and the food was ok. I had the fish and chips and while good, I have had better. Good selection of Irish Whiskey and beers. 3.5 stars and would try it again.

Tis the Irish month and where better to be? I had an avocado chicken salad that was just scrumptious, fresh and didn't have to wait long. Waitress was kind, helped us and had a great smile. ? you want to come here.

Owner's description was spot-on! An incredible Irish dinner followed by an Irish band. Like minded folks enjoying a great night out. Like walking into "Friends" with Irish spirit! I'll be back with me friends.

Good atmosphere, good food. Not great, but it is a pub. Great prices, we were surprised when we got the check - especially being in this area.They had live music when we were there, which was real nice. Not too loud, you could still easily talk to each other.Service was great, couldn't be happier with the treatment we got.Highly recommended!
