    Curious were the actual Irish food is? It's called an Irish pub. But they had not much in the way of Irish anything.

    Kelly's Irish Pub - I really enjoyed the fish and chips ... I usually do ... and there's something cold to go with it

    When you look at this place or walk in, you don't really get the idea that this bar has good food,…read morebut it really does. Their ruben sandwich is one of my favorite things on the island.

    On my "to do" list was an update for Kelly's on SPI for which I needed to tick off the box and…read moresaying "done." I gave it 2 stars several years ago because the service wasn't the greatest - far from it - and it was fairly quiet that night. Isn't it often that way? I went back to Kelly's Irish Pub because I believe it was more about the server and bartender that evening than it was about their regular modus operandi. I ordered the shepherd's pie and it was actually fairly decent. The service was definitely much better on this last go round. When on SPI, I usually don't return to places more than once during a stay unless I find it exceptional, it's a coffeehouse, or it's Whataburger with its great hours. However, one day I had planned to get lunch at another small eatery and it was easy to see that they were full and I'd have to wait a while. Having seen the daily specials at Kelly's, I went back for one of them. I got the fish and chips lunch platter and it was very good, not to mention a respectable value. The interior delivers with its thematic busy collection of Irish paraphernalia and its feeling of being like an old shoe. The customers seemed to be in a good mood. That could also in part be attributable to the service I encountered. Kelly's Irish Pub on SPI handily moves from 2 to 4 stars for providing a good mix of food, service, value, and atmosphere on two visits within a week. I really like their slate of lunch specials and, befitting a casual neighborhood sort of place, their friendliness is appreciated.

    Kelly's Irish Pub - This was a good choice - about a 3.5 on this go round.  You can see that the way it is put together has improved.

    Brunch time was delightful! Delicious food, fun ambiance,…read moreclean place good service and music just what was needed to end my weekend in Mc Allen. I have no pictures but the pozole well season so tasty and a huge portion. I had the combo two barbacoa tacos and the pozole both so good, garnished with cilantro, cebolla, lemon and cabbage. The mimosa tower and the mini pancakes were my dessert !! There was some dancing and After a very satisfying breakfast we had a tequila, this a Mexican tradition to have it as a digestive not as a shot ! A nice surprise was that it was served with both lemon and oranges slides also very traditional in Mexican Restaurants ! So while in Mc Allen it's a must you go and visit !

If it were busy I get it but when there is only 2 tables in the restaurant come on. Yet when the men in suits walk in they waited not even a minute and had thier menus at the table. I hadn't even finished my food when she was asking if we wanted the tab already. I should have asked if she was kicking us out already. My husband felt like we were being judged and treated like we didnt have money. Then when she brings us our change she is standing there waiting for the tip. I am a server myself and never treat guest based on how they are dressed and much less wait for a tip.
