Kelly's Tavern

The bartenders are amazing— all of them, especially the tall one with the nice butt 🤣 Happy Hour is where it’s at with cheap food and drinks! Although I sure would like a different HH menu every so often— I feel like it’s been the same specials for the last decade.

Walked in for a bite before a movie. Place was not busy from what I could tell. Greeter at the door did not appear happy to see us. We were seated right away though and someone came to us several minutes later for our drinks order. No mention of specials or happy hour which I’m sure sells food and drink at most places. Our actual waiter did not show up until after we put our appetizer orders in with the woman who took our drink orders. Waiter was sloppy in appearance and seemed more interested in his phone than in taking care of our table.
Overall food was just ok and not $140 worth. Experience was just not what we expected. My money will go elsewhere next time.

Was not good at all the sweet tea looked like sugar water didn't even taste like sweet tea and the food had no flavor

It’s great here but the jukebox barely lets you play anything that not censored?.. very weird

So Slow! We arrived more than an hour before our movie time. It took almost 30 minutes before someone took our order and another 30 before the food came. So we couldn’t even enjoy or finish our meal because we had to leave for the movie.

Kelly's Tavern French onion soup is a revelation, a bowl of pure, savory magic that hits like a warm hug on a cold day. The broth is rich, deeply caramelized, and carries a bold, almost primal umami that reminds me of the scraped-down essence of an old, well-seasoned flat top grill—those gritty, soulful bits of flavor that only come from years of cooking. The onions are perfectly melted into the mix, sweet and tender, swimming in a dark, beefy elixir that’s both comforting and complex. A thick cap of gooey, golden gruyère crowns the bowl, toasted just right, adding a nutty, creamy contrast to the soup’s robust depth. Every spoonful feels like a tribute to the kind of hard-earned, honest flavors you’d find in a seasoned kitchen. It’s not just soup—it’s a memory of every great meal cooked on that imaginary, battle-scarred grill. I’m already craving my next bowl

Double smash burger was a play on the Big Mac and it was delicious

wings were mid. place is is too expensive for just bar food…🗑 $30 for 10 wings and 1 beer. Gfy tbh wy

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday, the regular crowd shuffles in kind of place.

Arrived at the opening, so there was a very minimal crowd. The staff was very polite and the food was brought out in a very reasonable time. I had the fish and chips which were delicious. If you aren't a big fan of old bay make sure you specify that since they put it on the fish. The sauces that came with the fish paired perfectly.

Me and the wife went here while on a work trip. I had the French dip and she had a Rueben which she had been crazing. But we’re pretty good. Everything was going great and we’re were enjoying the food and the atmosphere. The bartender was solid and prompt. But, towards the end, an argument broke out with staff that was off the clock and a couple guests. This has always been an issue for me coming from the bar Industy. My biggest issue was that the off duty staff threatened to get the bartender fired. He did nothing wrong. He tried to desolate the issue. It really escalated when the staff brought in family members. We left before a full on brawl broke out and cops showed up.

Went in on a Friday night. Was greeted and sat right away. Waited for over 10 minutes. Server never came so I walked out. If I can give them zero Stars I would. There was no acknowledgment that we were there. Nobody say oh you're my table. I'll be with you in a minute. Nothing.

Incredible burger, lackluster fries. Fries were a tad soggy, but worth that completely for the whiskey burger which was filling enough.
