Decided to get the sampler platter this time around. I really think it's the best deal as the portions you get for the 4 items you pick are very generous. I got the quesadilla, mozzarella sticks, onion rings and chicken tenders. I think next time I'll pass on the tenders as they were a bit dry for my taste. Also took nearly 40 mins to get my food. The waiter said due to the amount of people but I think if that's the case swing by and acknowledge that instead of us having to find the waiter to check on the status.

Popped into Ireland's to watch Game 1 of the NBA finals and grabbed a fantastic Fish & Chips. Hadn't had it in a long time, and almost forgot how good it is here. The cod is moist and tender, while the beer batter crust is fried crisp without being oily. The fresh-cut, made-to-order chips are fantastic as always, crispy with that pillowy potato inside. The photo shows the small order -- if you order the large and you'll get two of those generous pieces of fish. As always, service is friendly, the crowd is lively, and the pub atmosphere is perfect for watching a game. I'm still calling this the best pub on this side of the Valley.

Great old school Irish bar. One of my old Time dart bars. The service here is always great. The bartenders are awesome. They have a good selection of beers and full bar can never go thirsty here. They're always playing cool music nice dark setting like usual like your bars would want to be. They actually serve really good food. This is a cool place to hang out.

This spot has such cool, laid-back vibes--perfect for grabbing a drink and enjoying some really good food. Everything we had was solid, but the fish and chips were definitely the highlight. Crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly... easily one of the best I've had. Great atmosphere, great food, and just an all-around good time. Shout out Rocky the bartender who was awesome and super friendly.

If you're a sport fan, I would highly recommend visiting this location. They have large TV's that you can watch the games. For food, I can say everything was amazing. I ordered chicken tenders and wings which were really good. They tasted good and wings were perfectly seasoned. No complaints about the food. Drinks were good too. For service, it's like any other bar. Food is ordered at the bar and servers bring it to the table. On the night I visited it was kind of busy, so it took while for us to get our food which was not a big deal. For ambiance, this location was nicely decorated. There was map of Ireland hanging on the wall and I noticed they had Ireland flag too which made it more authentic. Restroom was clean too. This pub is very similar to the other Irish Pubs with the same style and vibe. Also, food was way better than other Irish Pubs, I have been to. I will be back for sure.

This is our neighborhood bar, and though we've been here before, we've only come for drinks. Last night was different, we bellied up to the bar for some dinner & drinks & were pleasantly surprised. The food is absolutely incredible! One of the most elevated bar experiences I have ever had, without the ridiculous prices. They give Robin Hood (across the street) a run for their money when it comes to fish & chips & their fried pickles are EPIC! Bartenders are friendly & you can see the relationships with the patrons are long standing. Download the app to play your favorite tunes in the jukebox & stay to listen to one of the fun bands that play Wednesday - Saturday.

Don't waste your time. Food was garbage and curiously more expensive than it should be. Guinness was nasty. They should be embarrassed with this pint. It's a sin to serve Guinness this way. You wanted the truth. You got the truth.

So glad I walked in as it's a step up from Robin Hood for tasty Fish & Chips! Great crowd and welcoming staff just you have to order yourself at the bar. Good times and I shall return!

Delicious! I have been wanting to come to this place for fish and chips for so long. It was late in the evening and I called in for a pick up but they didn't pick up. I called back a few times and still no one answered. I decided to drive home and my phone rang, and it was Ireland's 32 calling me back! The lady was so kind and patient as I placed my order, fish and chips, onion rings and a black and bleu burger. She told me the pieces of fish were pretty big and she was right! It was fried perfectly and the cod was delicious! The fish tasted really good, but if you are looking for salt, you will have to add it. I like my fish like this way though, dipping in the vinegar, ketchup and tarter sauce which they give you on the side. The burger was really good as well. And the onion rings were yummy, fried well and the onions were soft and crunchy - a perfect combination. A tad bit greasy, but it is bar food - what do you expect. The bar was nice! and they had every kind of beer and alcohol - I don't remember seeing wine but I am sure they had that too. The bartender was really kind and attentive. A band was setting up and he told me they have karaoke on Sundays. They have more then five televisions, all on different sports from basketball and baseball as well as horse racing, it a wide variety. I think I saw a pool table but it was a calm scene, chilled. Maybe I will return for karaoke. :-)

A friend invited me to come join her for some live music here, and since I'd never been and I love an Irish pub, I jumped at the chance. I ate beforehand because I wasn't sure if they had any food and I have dietary restrictions, but my friend ordered food and we saw other people's plates and everything looked fantastic. The bartender was friendly and fast and made me a delicious Irish coffee to end the night with. I felt like I fit right in and it could be an Irish pub in any small town with a great neighborhoody feel. I look forward to going back!

The food is good, very good Dubliner burger and fries, and the portion of the fish chips is good as well, service can be really slow though, maybe a little under staffed during night time, good live performance on the side also, I know they do karaoke Sundays also, overall really a cool chill ambiance bar to stop by to grab a bite and drink and hang out with friends! :)

My husband really loves this pub! I know it has to get crowded, but everytime we've come by the atmosphere has been chill and calm. They have about 5 tvs around the bar that are constantly playing some sport or major game that is on. There is usually one bartender behind the bar that are personable and always ready to take your order. The best part of this pub though has to be their food. You cannot go wrong with their fish and chips, so good and portions are LARGE. They have a small parking lot in the back but there is usually plenty of street parking. They obviously have Guinness on tap, but they have other beers and also a full liquor bar.

Their long hours (early morning until 2am) mean there are a couple of shifts of staff per day, but I most often find Jodie behind the bar, and she's one of the nicest bartenders in town. Lighthearted and well-spoken, she can chat with anyone about almost anything, and she manages the crowd well. She's a good egg who's seen it all, but seems to treat every day like it's possible to get through without any problems. There's no food for sale here, but they're happy to have you bring or order in anything you like, and you'll often see people at the bar eating meals from the many local restaurants. There are 8 TV's mounted around the place (plenty for its size), so you can watch a game if you like, and the digital jukebox is easy to manage from an app on your phone. Plus, they've got solid, reliable WiFi, in case you're sick of sitting in Starbucks. Drinks are modestly priced and generously poured, and there's ample parking, both in the lot out back and on the un-metered street out front. This may not be the right place for a marriage proposal, but it's definitely the right place to hang out and cool off in the dog days of summer.

The bartender helps us once we move and since I saw a sign for seasonal beers I asked the bartender who then proceeds to tell me just read the wall...I did that's why I asked. ‍ I proceed to just order an Oktoberfest and a green tea shot, both were not good. The beer definitely had a weird after taste (I was literally just on the east coast ordering them left and right) and the green tea shot for the first time ever actually had green tea (if you've never had it before, it's not supposed to). The bar deco for Halloween was cool and the crowd seemed chill plus they had Ami jukebox for music. We had our drinks and left for another bar shortly after, don't think I'll be coming back.

We loved the indoor tiki decor and thought the whole vibe of the place was so cute and charming and we did appreciate some of the other customers who dressed up in Tiki style clothing as well. We did get dropped off/picked up but there's theoretical street parking out front for your DD (drink responsibly!!). They had a summer drinks special menu and we got the TBD and the Pure Imagination, I preferred the pure imagination. But our absolute favorite drink was the Nutty Chi Chi, a vodka blend on a classic Piña Colada! They don't serve food themselves but there is a taco stand out back after ~6pm that takes cash + card (card fee!) and will drop off food to your table. Such a fun night and looking forward to coming around again!

This dark, hole-in-the-wall bar serves excellent drinks and innovative twists on classics, with Oy Bar's special touch to make this a unique SFV find. Their staple wagyu pastrami quesadillas have a pronounced comforting cheese flavor with a touch of jalapeño bite. The tortilla has an interesting texture, one which I'm not sure I liked or disliked as it appeared dry, even with the fatty pastrami. The Peruvian scallop sashimi was fresh, with layers of flavor and textures from the passion fruit sauce, cavior and thinly sliced red peppers. The cured salmon yaki onigiri is rice heavy; the salmon was fresh and beautifully dressed. We also had the mango rum ice cream which was perhaps my least favorite order. The rum was heavy and made the ice cream slightly bitter and the mango flavors was masked.
