The food was averagely delicious. The steak was tender and had a good sauce. The calamari was overly battered which was just falling apart, I wasn't too keen on that but overall delicious flavors from the steak and grilled chicken salad.

Just water to one side, coastal highway, and then Riva. The bartending staff is definitely skilled. They're fast, friendly... and make a drink that has kick but you don't get the alcoholic burn. A dangerous combo for sure. The food was good too. A double patty burger and onion rings, at $25 give or take, definitely the right price range for it. My one gripe is the beer prices. $9 for a can of Miller Lite is very steep. I get there's overhead, staff wages, taxes, all of that, but a high price for a cheaper beer is a deterrent. When the cocktails are $4 more but you get a decent amount for the drink, that's totally fair. Craft beers at $9 is understandable. But cheap domestics at that level? It's not the best decision there. But other than the drink prices, it's clean, great staff, very good food, and an experience that made me go "I'll come back when it's summertime for sure"

Happy Easter Day to everyone who celebrates Christian Faith…read more My Sister and I had reservations for dinner at one of the best restaurants in West Haven, in most people's opinions. Duffy's is an Irish American Pub/Restaurants owned by Christopher Walsh. Being a holiday, Duffy's is offering both their traditional and brunch menu options. The dining room and bar is decorated with strong oak furniture, tables and chairs. The historic backdrop is filled on the walls throughout the restaurant of baseball, football, political heroes and of course, a touch of Irish heritage and American pride. The staff immediately make you feel welcome and right at home with their warm demeanor and bright smiles. My Sister had the Brunch Wrap with a side of Home Fries (Sorry no picture) I had to Slow Cooker Pot Roast with Mashed Potatoes and Broccoli and Carrots. Washed it down with 2 Smith Wick's Irish Red Ales. Our waitress today was Kenzie.... She was attentive and polite, did a very good job, especially with it being very busy. Highly recommend visiting Duffy's for any occasion, holiday or any other reason?

We decided to split the rueben sandwich with fries. OMG!! It was amazing, so flavorful and delicious. The fries were fresh and piping hot. The bartender was warm and inviting. Restaurant is warm, welcoming and clean. We highly recommend the sandwich and look forward to trying other menu options.

Today was my first time going with the new name- I am unsure if it's new management or what. I called and put in a to go order. The menu on their website is the same as when it was rebar. I called and said I'll take the strappazare pizza for pickup. The woman just said "ok" and was about to end the call. I asked if she wanted my name and how long it would be. Gave my name she said 20 mins. I walk in the bartender was sitting at the bar on her phone. I told her I was there for pickup. She said she didn't have any orders waiting. I took out my phone and read the number I dialed to her and asked if it was correct because that's what's on their website- She said she didn't know the phone number and said I probably called the wrong place. I dialed the number and sure enough the phone at the bar started ringing. She said oh I don't know what happened. When I tell you she was the only person in there and I'm positive I spoke to her on the phone. Not wanting to wait another 20-30 mins for a pizza I ended up walking out. The staff should be trained how to take to go orders and confirm with the customer. She took an order for a pizza they don't even have on their menu- and then never entered the order and pretended like she didn't know about it!!

Between Frank Pepe's and BAR, my friend, a Yale student, prefers the latter, and as a mere tourist,…read moreI deferred the decision to her. Man, so glad I did. We arrived on a Monday around peak dinner time, but there was essentially no wait (apparently uncommon according to my friend -- just a delightful consequence of dining at a college town during the summer). We split a medium pizza (1/2 elote mexican street corn and 1/2 bbq brisket), proving to be more than enough for two plus a more than ample amount of leftovers. Recently, I've gravitated toward thinner pizzas, a far cry from the typical Detroit (foccacia-esque) style pizzas I used to prefer, and BAR's pizza is akin to a flatbread yet very thin, another fallen angel to the GLP's. The undercarriage boasts a brilliant crust, almost cracker-like. However, it should be noted that the pizza is indulgent all the same. The elote pizza is quite possibly the most memorable, unique pizza I've ever had; it arrives almost crimson-red with a generous layer of corn and takis atop. It's still incredibly well balanced despite the hodgepodge of varied toppings. It's hard to pick a favorite between this and the bbq brisket though; while one is incredibly unique the other is simply sumptuous, nothing pedestrian about either of the two. The service is also impeccable, almost rivaling that of southern hospitality. I always thought Californians were friendly but something is in the air every time I visit New Haven. Incredible!
