“We hosted a surprise 60th birthday party this past weekend and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From the first call to set it up to the moment we walked out the door, the staff made sure it was such a great experience. The people who work there are so attentive and kind. The managers Bryan and Kelly were so helpful in planning our party and Ivan is a rockstar. He took care of our party of 20 and made sure we had everything we needed. We never had to look for him, he was always checking on us and providing excellent service. He truly is so great at what he does. We had a sit down lunch in their cottage room which was so nicely decorated. the space was perfect. We felt like we were in our own restaurant. It was cozy but spacious and they were so accommodating with how we wanted it set up. We were able to bring balloons and decorations and the staff even helped us set up. They had a curtain up in the doorway so we were able to really surprise the guest of honor. Our lunch was delicious. We chose to do the seated option with 3 shareable apps and we picked a menu of 4 main meals from their party menu. Most of us ordered the shepherds pie and it was some of the best we had ever had. The presentation was cute. It came in a skillet which was served on a board with Irish soda bread. It was so delicious. The show stopper was the shareable Irish egg rolls. We couldn’t stop talking about them. The drinks were really good and the bar staff was really attentive to the party. The kids ordered from the long kids menu and they really enjoyed theirs as well. The pricing was very reasonable and worth every penny. We were able to bring our own cake and they cut it up and served it for us which was so nice. I can’t thank them enough for how special they made this experience. Everyone in our party had such an amazing time. The staff here are incredible. I would absolutely consider them for your next party.“

“Excelente restaurante . Excelentes atenciones . La comida Exquisita . Lo recomiendo cien ? por ciento!! Ven y disfrútalo ..“

“I’ve had the pleasure of having Kim as my bartender and she’s the absolute best there is. Very personable , knowledgeable of what to have to eat or drink and just the best at what she does . Her experience behind the bar should never go unnoticed. I’ve been coming here for over a decade and she’s always stood out among anyone else back there.“

“Bar was a throwback into a time gone bye it was like going to a gin mill in 1970 with my dad very pleasant bartender busy bar and she was up to the task good service the cook had a delicious menu mixed with bar fare and restaurant food all were very good the place was clean and neat restrooms clean very pleasant experience ????? I will definitely be back.“

“We threw a drop-in Buffet dinner for family and friends at Houlihans for 30 to 35 people. The room is spacious and accommodated everyone comfortably. Our server Eileen was excellent and the food was delicious. Michelle who assisted with the catering was very detail oriented and help me plan a great event. Sebastian the manager as extremely gracious and helped ensure our guests were taken care of. I would definitely do it again and highly recommend..“

“Food was great, atmosphere was nice, staff was attentive and waiter was friendly and nice. Only issue I would say was the drinks wasn’t worth it to me or worth the price.“

“Just an overall great atmosphere! One or two more items on the menu would be nice; and the fried calamari were more like baby calamari. But overall a very nice place. Enjoyed the live band and great customer service.“

“Went to Dog house yesterday. Found out the chef left. 😩 Food definately proved it. used to Love the cheesecake sandwich, but not today. Way too much Wostishire that overpowered the sandwich and steak sliced too thick. Very disappointed! And the very young bartender was very disappointing also. only 6 people there and not very responsive or knowledgeable!“

“excelente servicio y mui buen ambiente“

“Great local spot. They don't serve food but they can order delivery for you from some spots they partner with nearby. Gooood whiskey selection. Great for try before you buy. Also nice rotating tab list and even some wine on tap.

Parking: It's in a shopping center that doesn't get crazy busy.“

“la recomiendo 100% es un ambiente muy entrenado.“

“Tucked away behind the Main Street we stumbled upon this excellent restaurant. We ordered Spring rolls and a Japanese thingy for starter, both were really good. For mains it was Beef and Ginger and Prawn Fried Rice, again both excellent. So for 2 starters, 2 mains and 4 drinks it came to 58 euros, even excellenter ?…music choice was a bit different in that it was dance oriented but wasn’t out of place. We have booked again and would obviously recommend ?“

“Such a great time performing at the Russian hall last night. Awesome atmosphere and staff !“

“I feel most of the people that don't like side door on here are either ugly as hell. Probably mad they couldn't get laid or are bitter cause they got tossed for one reason or another. Great place. We got the #1 pool team. #drivingmisswendy.“

“(Translated by Google) The best salsa matinee, with the best sexy DJ, great atmosphere, the best drink specials. I love this place❤(Original)El mejor matinee salsero, con El mejor Dj sexy, muy buen ambiente, los mejores especiales en bebidas. Me encanta este lugar❤“

“The drinks aren’t expensive and it isn’t watered down. Bartender and owners are cool and are always looking around to make sure everything is good. Hookah is also available upon request. Not many hookahs are available, so it first come first serve. The place is a bit cozy, i wish it was bigger inside. From the outside, it doesn’t look like much, but the vibes and staff are cool. They play a lot of reggae and hip hop but depending on the crowd, the DJ willMix it up.“

“The best atmosphere to unwind and have fun...“

“Went to yard house tonight . Great place but no atmosphere for the holidays . Every Restaurant you go to is decorated & fun .It's no joy , fun, why would you stop decorating your place . People enjoy the Xmas Decor & it's makes people feel more festive & want to drink , eat & enjoy .Big mistake not to decorate.“

“Very cozy spot. Great prices! Small menu but great options! Staff is super friendly. Pool table, music, live DJs on the weekend, and looks like they rent out a whole court in the back. That explains the name!

Parking: Diagonal to the bar on your right“

“This is doubtless one of the most pleasant place to eat in the area. Anytime I visit this place I am profoundly happy. They always keep their high level service and the highest level of dishes they serve. You always win with this restaurant. Very recommended.“

“We had a quiet, comfortable stay while heading south through New York and New Jersey. Room was clean and comfortable. Everything worked with the exception of one lightbulb, which was quickly replaced. The front desk staff and the maintenance engineer were very friendly and helpful. Beds were comfortable. Our one “complaint” was with the height of the toilet seat. For old folks with old knees, it’s much too low and there was nothing to grab onto. It also would have been helpful to have a listing of the tv channels. There was no channel guide on the remote. We had to surf through the channels to see what was on. We had a very good dinner in The Koi Lounge. Food was good! Price was reasonable! Server/bartender was very pleasant, but service was slow because she was working alone. The kitchen is not adjacent to the lounge, so she had to do lots of running back and forth. The main restaurant was closed because the hotel was not busy enough to warrant opening it in the middle of this week. The breakfast buffet @ $18 was very good. It featured a good variety of hot and cold items + eggs/omelettes cooked to order. Good coffee! We would stop here again when passing through.“

“Food was amazing, servers were great.“

“Forgot how nice of a venue Rails is...it is really beautiful! Came here to celebrate 30+ years married and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Had oyster (east and west coast) appetizer and octopus with delicious garbanzo beans in a really tasty sauce!! Then had a NY strip and skirt steak... both cooked perfectly for medium rare. Had a side of creamed spinach which could've been cooked a little more...and very creamy. Next time I think I will get oil and garlic spinach instead..just a preference. Shout out to our waitress, Danielle,...very attentive and gave us a piece of cake on the house to take home and celebrate our anniversary...Also invited us to the speakeasy...but c'mon it's only MONDAY??? Saw.some people enjoying mac and cheese as an appetizer...looked good, but that would have been too much for us!! No starches ordered, but they looked good.“

“Trays of wraps made for cardiac service at GSH. Best grilled chicken wrap ever!! My friends and family frequently eat at the diner. Everything is fresh and delicious 😋“

“la verdad que el lugar es hermoso muy buen ambiente la comida es perfecta lástima una camarera en particular que nos atendió y nos quedamos muy desconforme ya que la mesa la limpio sin ganas y quedó toda pegajosa tuvimos que comer así cuando le pedíamos algo nos contestaba de mala manera de mala gana y nos traía todo al revés de lo que le pedíamos no sé el nombre de esta chica porque tenía un nombre raro tenía pelo largo medio rojizo y era muy flaquita y chiquitita pero desagradable como camarera“
