Decided to have Irish food since that was the menu for the night. My friend had the shepherds pie and it was HORRIBLE. If you could find a carrot you were lucky never mind any of the other veggies. The potatoes were little scoops plopped around the top, no cheese. Bland and horrible. Worse Shepherds Pie ever. I had the corned beef reuben and the corned beef looked like scraps that should have been used on nachos instead of a sandwich. There were some strips of CB with sauerkraut and the swiss made the rest of the sandwich OK. Would go back for the music but would not have food here. Waitresses were not as attentive as they should have been as we had empty glasses of Guiness and needed refills and had to wait along time to get them to swing by. Excuse twice was the Guiness kicked? I can see 1 time, but not 2 in a short time. If you want authentic Irish fare go somewhere else.

Love the corn beef and cabbage inside. Regular nachos were OK, they were missing key elements of nachos. No jalapeños, no salsa, no guac. Pretty lackluster.

There was all manner of artifacts and brick a Brack hanging around the walls and ceiling, and a neat train on a platform around the bar, that activated when you throw in a $.25 donation to "charity." All this in an expansive dining room that spanned two floors, with a large center bar. The bartender was friendly and welcoming, and he made frequent stops to check in during the time there. I went with a Sea Hag IPA on draft and one of the specials "jersey dogs" which was two hot dogs on toasted buns topped with sliced potatoes, peppers and garlic and a side of fries. All of it was great. Seems like a solid neighborhood bar and restaurant choice in town.

I ordered the tai chicken salad and was disappointed in the chicken. It tasted old and reheated. It was dry and not palatable. Additionally, the peanut sauce for the chicken and the dressing for the salad tasted watered down. The server was a wonderful young lady who was doing her best, but she was taking on too many tables by herself, and it was hard to get her attention. The manager was very friendly, but we felt a bit shortchanged because the place seemed to be cutting corners. I hope this place steps up their game, but for now, I'd have to advise people to pass on it.

And by hard, I mean we're staying up until 11 p.m. instead of going to bed at 10. (Cue Forever Young. Just not too loud, ok? ) Our recent date at Rebellion Gastro Pub in Danbury, CT was absofreakinlutely great. The company was alright, I guess. But the drinks and decor were stellar. The latter reminded me of hip joints in Reykjavík, with its vaguely volcanic / below-decks-on-a-Viking-ship + 1920's lounge aesthetic. Food was sophisticated, but fun, and extremely likable, about 10x better what's usually served in most pubs or even gastropubs. We had: - Beef Tartare (cured yolk. anchovy. caper dust. coal toast. $20) -- The finely chopped beef was tender and very umami on the tongue, sharp with mustard and topped with some grated, salty cheese. I found the dish spectacular. - Beet salad (citrus. feta. mint. toasted sunflower seeds. $16) -- well executed. Sweet, fresh roasted beets + excellent mesclun + neatly suprêmed sweet oranges. - The Glizzy (Waygu beef. street corn. lime crema. cojita cheese. cilantro. chili oil drizzle; $22) -- In case you can't tell from the description, The Glizzy is a hot dog. A very, very good one. Tender, juicy, flavorful, all the good things, like master butchers Erica Nakamura and Jocelyn Guest used to make and sell via J&E Small Goods. It's about a foot long, but comes in a regular size bun. Corn was a wee bit chewy, but nicely dressed, and contributed some welcome vegetable matter. - Brick Chicken (crispy airline chicken. rosemary jus. whipped yukon potatoes. braised kale. $34) -- Airline chicken is a certain cut of chicken, also called Statler chicken, which includes a boneless, skin-on chicken breast with the first wing joint (the drumette) attached. This was nicely made with moist protein and flavorful skin that had either been seared in a pan or by a torch. Kale was a bit tougher than ideal, but the whipped potatoes and jus were likable accompaniments, retro, yet chic. (Perhaps out of nowhere, it made me think of Crown Shy in NYC.) Now a note on service. I had originally ordered the Mussels (saffron broth. fennel. herbs. $18) and was served a beautiful, generously portioned bowl with what appeared to be fat bivalves. Unfortunately, they smelled odd -- strongly and weirdly of human urine -- though the one mussel I ventured to eat tasted fresh and unspoiled. I was Googling for possible benign causes of such a smell and actually prepared to power through if I could -- prima donna types who send dishes back to the kitchen irritate me to no end -- but our amazing server, Mia, noticed my perplexed face, and graciously offered to take the dish away and off the bill. Later, the fantastically nice and charismatic co-owner, Tim Medina, stopped by the table to apologize and chat. And after that, they even generously comped us a dessert. I was too full to want to indulge, but the Pardner ended up requesting the whimsically named C.R.E.A.M. (see below). Even before all this, we were impressed by the gracious staff's sense of hospitality and their excellent team play. The hostess was occupied with other guests when we first arrived and the lovely bartender / mixologist immediately came out from behind the bar to greet and seat us. - C.R.E.A.M. = The CEREAL RULES EVERYTHING AROUND ME (vanilla or chocolate gelato. choice of cereal. $10) -- This was deeply nostalgic for me. Like probably just about every other kid, my sister and I made similar concoctions as children. Our favorite was vanilla ice cream mixed with peanut butter and either corn flakes or saltines. Rebellion's version came with an off-menu salted caramel gelato (good mouthfeel) and, at the Pardner's request, Cocoa Pebbles. Fun and irreverent. Also -- shhh -- sophisticated. Given our well-paced and leisurely meal over conversation and the World Cup, we were able to try quite a few cocktails, yet drive home completely sober. The mixologist(s) -- Google tells me chef Tevin Snider is the man in charge, here -- know their game. More than anything else, the drinks stole the show. All cocktails are $15 and well made classics served with those big, classy cocktail ice cubes. The menu is organized by primary spirit. We had: - Mexican Firing Squad (tequila, fresh lime, grenadine, bitters) - Oaxaca Old Fashioned (reposado tequila, mezcal, agave, bitters, orange peel) -- strong, fragrant, not-too-sweet -- my fave - Penicillin (blended Scotch, lemon, honey-ginger, smoky Islay Scotch) - Gold Rush (bourbon, lemon, honey) -- evidently invented at one of our favorite NYC establishments, Milk and Honey, in the early 2000s. Back when we lived a few blocks away. This makes me feel old. - Vieux Carre (rye, cognac, sweet vermouth, benedictine, bitters) It's been a while since we've been to such a fun, funny, classy place. I'm in love!

All right folks! I don't typically, if ever, write a review. However, I would not feel like I am…read moredoing my duty as a Danburian if I neglected this one. First off, this is a review for two concepts, one staff, and one man. Both Rebellion Gastropub and Rebellion Kitchen + Bar are fantastic. Let me start with the staff, who are excellent in each establishment. Upon entering either location, I am greeted warmly by everyone I see. Special shout-outs to Dorian, Mia, and Julie! These three have made every experience (for both me and anyone I bring along) top-notch. They are knowledgeable, skilled behind the bar, and super kind. They consistently go out of their way to ensure that each item brought to the table, whether a bite or a pour, is perfect. Next, I would like to talk about the Chef/Owner, Tim. Now, I like to fancy myself a foodie; I am a home cook with a ton of technical skill and knowledge. Generally, if I can cook better than the establishment in which I am dining (which in Danbury happens quite often), I simply do not come back. However, the "OG" Rebellion on Padanaram is a mainstay for me. This new space? EVEN BETTER!!! Tim is wildly enthusiastic about food. He consistently pushes his knowledge and skillset to the point of excellence. I understand that some people may look at the prices and say, "no thanks." That would be a mistake. In my mind, you get what you pay for, and in this economy, you certainly have to pay for quality. That is exactly what you get from Tim--day to day, plate to plate. Tim has never served me a dish that I did not happily eat and enjoy. Furthermore, I know firsthand that his kitchen and food prep practices are impeccable. He takes great pride in his food, his facilities, and his desire to grow his business acumen. All one needs to do is visit the new Gastropub. We are talking "80s neon drip" meets modern high-end dining meets sports bar. It has everything anyone could ask for in Danbury: -Date Night: Whether it's a first date or a night out with your spouse, this is the spot. -The Fellas: It's a dope setting to hang out and watch the playoffs. -Girls' Night: It is a great space for friends or colleagues to gather. -Events: It's a wonderful space to host an event where guests will be impressed by the food, ambiance, and drinks. Simply put: don't sleep on this one, folks. There are very few spots around Danbury that live up to the hype and the price, but Rebellion Gastropub is right there as a contender for the top spot. Sorry Rein, sorry The Reserve, sorry Costello's--those are places that, for me, do not live up to the price point or the hype. For my money, if I want a sure thing, I'm going to see Tim and his crew.

Our food was much better this time and now I understand why people like it. Our server Greg was great so he helped make the evening terrific as well. We started with cocktails (my Curious George was delicious) and had some appetizers....heirloom tomatoes, corn fritters and duck croquettes. Everything was delicious, with the duck croquettes a particular standout. For my meal, I had a salmon bowl with rice. It was so good. I liked how the salmon was in small pieces rather than just a big slab on top of rice. The great thing was that the smaller pieces were cooked wonderfully. I think it would be easy to overcook pieces that size but they were perfectly crispy on the outside but moist and flavorful inside. I think my mistake the first time was ordering steak so I'm glad we went back. We'll definitely return.
