This is the first Saint Patty's Day party here since they took over the old beer temple building on trade Street. I think everyone that lives in Matthews is here! Anyone who likes to have fun anyways. Good times good drinks great atmosphere good music! Only complaint is pendant light hanging in front of the TV blocking my view while I'm hoping Man City whips the snot out of West Ham. Check it out when you can! Cheers!

What a comfortable home-feel it had with something for everyone, both in food and nooks to set down and just chill, be it outside or in. I will be going back again!

Not busy yet so we were able to snag a table right infront of the pool table. My husband and friend were able to play multiple rounds of pool while waiting. Everyone was super friendly and efficient. Gave great recommendations. Tried their Irish sausage & hot honey pizza. All was delicious and had no complaints. They had someone there performing for the night which was pretty good but I only got to listen to two songs as we had to leave for the movies. Great hangout spot if you want a chill night or grab a quick bite and drink before the movies.

Gianna M. is a liar. My fiance and I were talking to her friend and she got upset and hurt because…read moreshe was having a great time talking to us. We never picked up any negative vibes from her "coworker". We had never met these ladies before and my fiance and I were enjoying meeting new people at the bar. Gianna M. seemed hurt that we took all the attention away from her. Her father was a fellow alumni from Independence Highschool (Class of 85) and we were talkng with each other about the upcoming reunion that I was going to be DJing at as well as member of the graduation 'class of 85". Gianni M. Father was very polite to us. Gianni M. the whole time I was talking to her Father had this defeated look on her face and just looked angry the whole time we were in there. She just snapped on us when my beautiful fiancé and I were talking to her friend. She was happy speaking to us and never got any weird vibes from here when we were pleasantly talking to her. Gianni M. got jealous and freaked out on us and said" Hey you are talking to my girlfriend" in an angry manner. We were shocked and insulted by her and Gianni M. is the reason we left angry. Booby is a nice guy and to Bobby I apologize that it didn't work out that we could stay but Gianni M. made us feel like we had hit on her girlfriend. Also Gianni M. i'm not 60 years old and we weren't hitting on your 'girlfriend". I was with my beautiful fiancé and you pissed both of us off. Get Happy Gianni M. !!!

We were the only guests there... Used the restroom to wash my hands before eating...NO SOAP, not a drop. The waitress and manager was advised. Before leaving, still NO SOAP. There were also visible large bugs on the bathroom ceiling. YUCK. The round table they seated us at was soooo tight! Like, the table is too big for the seating area, it was very uncomfortable for averaged sized folks and teenaged kids. I ordered the salmon; it was way too salty and just not good. Very fishy and the salmon color was orange. **The restaurant has this policy that if you don't like the food, under no circumstances can you return it** The manager stated they don't use salt at all...umm ok, so the fish added the salt beforehand?? She wouldn't even allow me to return it when I stated it was just nasty; I don't like it. NEVER AGAIN...NEVER.

And as crowded as it was on our recent visit, The One may eventually have to seek out trendier, more spacious digs somewhere else in the Queen City. Until then, be prepared for a noisy ambiance, peak hour waits and tables that are a bit close for comfort. But the food and cocktails make it all worth it. The extensive menu of shareable plates offers something for every palate, from the tasty Fettucini with Roasted Duck Ragu and flavorful Braised Short Ribs to the amazing Oxtail Empanadas. Paired with a perfectly mixed Old Fashioned or a bottle of wine from their impressive selection, it adds up to a compelling culinary experience for anything from date night to an evening with friends. Service was excellent on our visit and prices were very reasonable for a meal of this caliber. Parking is free and super-easy, but reservations are highly recommended -- especially for weekend visits. My only gripe was the tightness of the space, which makes intimate conversation a bit challenging and the tables a bit crowded -- especially when you order a variety of plates. But if you can manage to visit on a quiet weeknight, The One will deliver a wonderful tapas meal that will have you planning a return visit before you pick up the check.
