    The Michelle Martini was very tasty
    Mike O.

    The wings are so over rated I've been hearing so much about them and finally got a chance to have them and what a disappointment The only reason I'm giving 2 starts is because the Martini list was long and I was able to try 3 different ones The Michelle is by far the best tasting but if you want a kick order the watermelon

    Container the wings came in.

    Not happy to spend $24.00 on baby wings. Like who would be happy to spend 24 on 20 wings. Never ordering from this place again.

    A fresh order of hot wings.

    Going to Kelly's for wings always puts me in a good mood. I am addicted to hot wings, and Kelly's never lets me down. They're not the biggest or meatiest wings in the area, but they are consistently cooked to perfection...hot and crispy with just the right amount of sauce. I always start with an order of their hot, and if I'm still hungry, follow up with an order of hot/garlic. It's also a plus that you can order all drums or all flats at no extra charge. My one complaint is that I wish they had a larger selection of draft beer. At least they always have Harp Lager and a Sam Adams seasonal on tap. Overall, Kelly's shines with a great family atmosphere, incredible wings and great service.

    Kelly's Michele martini.  Note sidecar.

    Best wings in Pennsylvania period. Kelly's has been in business and making deep fried wings since 1754- yep that's before the revolutionary war. They are a classic Irish pub with a restaurant area and a bar area. Sit at the bar area unless you have a large family. God beer is good and cold. Excellent assortment of bottled beer too. However I recommend the mixed drinks especially the MICHELE MARTINI. Get that and a dozen or two wings (extra crispy) you can't go wrong. Tell them Joe J sent you and you'll get the martini with a side car. Essentially Two martinis. Again tell them Joe J told you about this. Have fun. Also very packed on St Patrick's Day and Scranton St Patrick's Day that's s week before and see the parade. Have fun.

    Delicious wings. Wing night is on Wednesday - minimum of 5 wings - with multiple sauces and rubs to choose from. They serve good blue cheese as well. Just be prepared to wait for a table around dinner time on Wednesday as wing night is a popular event.

    Such a fun menu with so many choices! I love the concept of local and fresh. Now is a good time to…read moreeat in Pennsylvania restaurants, due to their summer growing season. We found ourselves here on a busy weeknight and what a great dinner we had. Service was very friendly. It was a little on the slow side at first due to the volume but it cleared out soon after we arrived, so it improved. It was a little noisy but tables were not too close together, there was plenty of space. They have a nice wine list. Portions were generous and we boxed up some leftovers to go. We wanted to try other restaurants while visiting the area, otherwise we would have come back to sample more of their menu. We had the halibut from the seasonal offerings, and the burger, paired with the best mexican street corn I have ever tried. Highly recommend!

They specialize in farm to table and healthy food. Our plans before were running long but luckily their reservation policies were flexible enough that I had no problem moving my time, even on such a busy day. The restaurant was POPPING when we arrived around 4:30. We were seated promptly. The only downside to our experience was that the table was SUPER shaky and wobbly. We asked our waitress for a shim or piece of paper to steady the table but she informed us it was the table head itself, not the legs, so nothing could be done. I was not thrilled about this but assumed that these were tables they hauled out of storage to accommodate the holiday demand, so I can understand. Our server was very warm and friendly despite the chaos. Prices are on the high side but the quality is good and the portions are large. I went for the lobster cobb which was a special and it was LOADED with lobster meat. They really heaped it on. A little light on the avocado, but overall it was really wonderful. My mother went for a seafood scallop risotto which I also tried. It was creamy and flavorful. Our food came out in a reasonable timeframe, and our server was good about getting our check. One thing I really liked was that they put which dishes on the menu are over 500 calories, and most were under. A lovely, healthy dining choice with a nice ambiance. I'd return!

    I say skip the place and eat somewhere else if you want good service…read more If you want to drink and chill I think it's alright, definitely better than their food service. My boyfriend and I decided to eat after playing games for an hour. It was around 10:00 pm when we were seated. I really wanted to sit at a booth but all 6 of their booths were not cleaned up and had stacks of plates on them. We waited a total of 15 minutes to get our menus. Waited an extra 20 minutes to be able to order our food, then another extra 40minutes to get our food we ordered. I ordered chicken and rice but they were out of rice so they offered fries. My boyfriend ordered chicken tenders and fries. $14 for 4 tiny pieces of tenders ...( he also ordered a shake that they forgot about, so we told them to take it off the tab) Server also forgot to bring us utensils with our food? All of that took almost an hour to come out. They weren't busy either. Most people were at the bar drinking or done eating and hanging out at their seats, but more than half the tables were empty. I saw my server leaning up against a counter talking to coworkers the entire time. They had at least 5 workers roaming around doing who knows what, excluding the kitchen staff. It's now 12:30am and we're out of there. While we were walking out those same 6 booths still had messy plates, cups, and trash. The tables were also very sticky, not properly wiped down. We got seated at 10pm, It wasn't busy and still 3 hours till they closed. I don't blame my server, but probably the managers that don't really care how to run a place or get their servers to be attentive to the customers.

    Alcohol beverages could be better, along with staff. I went a while back and it was a one and done…read more Games weren't too bad but service wasn't the best.

It's also worth noting that expecting a good pescatarian experience at a barbecue joint is more of a me problem. In terms of the space, it had a laid back feel. Not too fancy. Just a bar, with an outdoor patio out back. Lot's of wood surfaces. A good amount of space. It felt comfortable. In terms of the staff, they were generally very attentive. Not fine dining level, but about what you would expect at a neighborhood bar. They did the job and conversed with various customers. In terms of food, everything was fine. I ordered the mahi mahi tacos with a side salad. The side salad was fine. Fresh ingredients. Well presented. The tacos were clearly presented with care, but it felt like they need a little more flavor. Maybe more slaw or some hot sauce on the side. They felt a little meh, even if the presentation was nice. All told, this is a perfectly reasonable place to grab dinner and a beer. It's comfortable. It's open late.

    This review was very mixed. We'd heard great things about this place and wanted to try a new place…read moreas we've started exhausting a lot of local places. The decor was great, the drinks were FANTASTIC, my food was about a 5 out of 10. I had the carbonara. Very oily and not creamy at all. I would have used a different blend of cheeses to make it creamier and less oily. My guess is they used Asiago. Not bad but not as great as I was expecting. My wife had the red beet salad. Shockingly a $20 salad with canned beets on it. Mediocre at best but the canned beets ruined it. If your getting a salad that features a specific vegetable wouldn't you want that vegetable to be the best highlight of the salad? That was the good part. The service I can't even explain. I'm not sure what happened because if it were like this everyday they'd be closed. We walked in downstairs and was told to sit wherever we wanted and then we were forgotten about. The bartender finally came over after my wife was looking her way for 20 minutes. Bartender apologized for forgetting about us. No waitresses anywhere. The AC I think was off because it was cooler outside on a warm muggy PA night than it was inside. The bar was about 3/4 full and there was one table seated and we noticed about 3/4 of the outdoor seating was occupied as well. Not super busy at all. We waited about 20 minutes before we were approached. We ordered water until we could got our menus and reviewed them. Water never came. Someone else came over and asked us about ordering drinks. We ordered drinks and asked about our water. Water never came. Drinks came. Then yet a different person came over a few minutes later to take our food order. We ordered water again since we were planning on drinking more. My wife's appetizer came out, meatballs. Pretty good, similar but somewhat different flavor than my Italian mothers recipe. When the app came out that person finally got us silverware, napkins and our water. Food came a little later. That's described above. During dinner we had to get up to get refills on water and were never offered additional drinks or anything. We finally stopped someone and asked for our check. My wife had to go to the bar to pay the bill. No one ever came back to the table. At one point earlier we were asked who our waitress was and we all looked at each other because 4 or maybe 5 people were at our table at some point but it was like we still couldn't get stuff we needed. My wife paid with a card she had forgotten to activate and it declined. The bartender gave her the slip and the card and never noticed or told her. She realized it at the table. We had to go back to the bar and pay again because after cleaning that one table everyone except the bartender would vanish. Finally we paid, sweating our asses off in a corner table with the most bassy sound system pounding for 2 hours we got out of there and went to a local bar for drinks. I would have loved to have enjoyed this place and loved to have had more drinks because their bar was the highlight of the experience but it was clear they didn't care about us at all. And we were sweating to death.
