The food is still delicious, but the staff replacements lead more to be desired. The new bartenders aren't overly friendly. Just makes the vibe totally different and less of a fun experience. When Ronan and Ray were there, they were super friendly and made it part of the experience of going there! read more

This is a regular stop for us because the food is so delicious. The atmosphere is attractive and the weight staff is professional and efficient. Make sure you make reservations on the weekend. read more

I dont know if theres a new cook or something, the food was already really good but when i went today it was absolutely incredible. I had a shephards pie and it was unironically one of the best dishes i have had in my life read more

Went for dinner with friends. They had 7 or 8 tvs going which were turned up so loud we couldn't carry on a conversation without yelling. My ears were ringing when we left. The server forgot about us. Never checked on us, and we had to ask the hostess to get us our check. Food was ok. read more

Calamari to start- very greasy. French fries, onion rings- greasy, you can see the oil drenched. Pastrami sandwich was okay- tender. Fish tacos were good. The outdoor dining space is nice. Waiter and helper were very pleasant. The cook need to use decent clean hot oil to fry calamari ($16) and the fries and onion rings. May give it a try again and hope the fried foods are done better. read more

Great spot for food, apps, drinks, & dessert. The service was awesome, our server was very attentive. We got to sit at a booth not near the live music or bar which was nice cause we could talk more instead. My food was really good, no complaints at all. read more

Service is good. Food is average. Here's a basic tip, if it's not described on the menu - do not put it on the food. Nothing worse than getting your food and it's a disgusting disaster. read more

I do really love Irish Times! The food there is amazing and ALWAYS fresh, the service is great and the waiters/waitresses are always very friendly. I would recommend! read more

Ate here with family, total 6 adults and a toddler. High chairs were available and there is a private family restroom with a baby changing table. Took a long time to get our food, about 50 minutes starting from sitting down. They did have other larger parties present and it seemed busy. So we spent about a good 2 hrs total. Our waitress was friendly, but we didn't see her too much throughout our dinner. The rest of the staff interaction we had was good, everyone was nice. Everyone liked their food from the potato soup, IPA chicken, steak to New York style cheesecake. I had the chicken pot pie, served with a puff pastry on top and bottom. It was good, everything a chicken pot pie should be, creamy, thick and comforting. Atmosphere was nice. Lots of booth seating and lights. It was still decorated with Christmas decorations in the side corner where we sat. read more

Fun atmosphere with good service and a good bar. Reasonable prices and open late! Always a plus! Outdoor seating in good weather too.

Our first visit was excellent, hubs started with ICE cold draft that was awesome. Restaurant is clean and atmosphere welcoming. Reminds me of a pub in Ireland. Our waiter was attentive but not overbearing, he did a great job. Started with the poutine. Great fries smother in brown gravy, cheese sauce and fitted with corned beef cubes. Hubs had cod fish tacos, said they were the best ever. I had lox BLT on brown onion bread, very different and tasty. Will definitely return! read more

Solid Flavor with Room to Grow Had dinner here last night and was genuinely impressed with most of what we tried. The atmosphere strikes a great balance between cozy and upscale -- perfect for a casual night out or a low-key date. read more

We have become regulars at Irish Times always request Crystal as our server as she understands our needs and treats us like family. We decided to have my wife 60th birthday party here hosting 47 people. The planning with Lori wast impeccable. We had requested Crystal as our sever without hesitation they gave her to us we also requested one of the bartenders and with out hesitation Sanjay wanted to bartend . The second server Craig, is also one of or favorite staff members. We decided on a buffet dinner with 5 options food was excellent. We asked to have our sons name put on the cake along with my wife's and did so with out hesitation.My daughter in-law needed a gluten free meal and staff were only too happy to provide that. The children's meals were also ordered from the children's menu. Our guests are texting and posting on social media about what a great time they had. My wife had a stress free enjoy able birthday.Thank you Lori, Crystal. Craig, Sanjay and all the staff read more

We loved it here! Stopped on our way home from Montauk with our two kids under 2. The booths were great, the food was delicious, the service was fast. Loved the family bathroom with a changing table. It was decorated beautifully for Halloween which the little ones loved. Can't wait to stop in again! read more

I went to a baby shower brunch here today. The interior vibe was warm, clean & pleasant and you would never know you're in a strip mall. The buffet food choices were varied and all delicious. I liked the casual nature of being able to get our own drinks. Service was good. I really enjoyed everything there but live in Nassau county so idk when i'll be back. read more

Very hard to find a restaurant that offers good fries since everything is now sea salt, but the fries at Irish Times are PERFECT!!!! Every now and then, I just get the fries to-go because they are that good. For dining, I've only ate there a few times but food was pretty good. Skirt steak could have been better. Bar service is very quick and the restaurant is very clean. read more

Had dinner with my brother this past Thursday (4/24). Sat at the bar, plenty of tv's to catch the games. Bartender took our drink & food order, we both got an app and dinner. She asked if we wanted to have them brought out separately, we said yes. Then she came back and said she was going off shift and asked if we wanted to close out or keep the tab open....we just sat down ! We kept it open. Then our apps & dinner came out together, great ! Eat before it gets cold !!!! Our new bartender was Jay, he had more perfume on him than my grandmother, and she's dead !!!! The few times he walked past us you had to cover your food, he stunk !!! He sat in the corner and talked to his posse the entire time, had to get the other bartender to get out drinks. I'd got back, but I'd get table and hope Jay bird isn't working. read more

I come here a lot for lunch. Every time I come I wait for ever to even be acknowledged. I just had to leave this review this time. The bar maid is rude. She talks from behind the bar to you when you're at the dining table. It is like we are bothering her. She had major attitude!!!! Too bad the food is great! I'm surprised that the nice owners have her behind the bar. What a shame. They should find a more pleasant bar tender. read more

Great food always! Friendly servers as well. Irish Times is very pretty inside, warm and inviting too. The bar is great with fun locals. Overall, I give this a huge thumbs up! read more

The place is very inviting went over the weekend on Saturday and it was decorated with valentine decor very cute. The host was very friendly and nice and sat us at a booth. Our waiter was very polite and friendly came out with drinks timely and food was hot and good. The place is very nice open and clean and got busy later on the evening with the football game on . Staff were very busy but always came to the table to ask if we needed anything. The prices are reasonable and definitely will come back. read more

Delicious food. Hostess and servers could care less. Most bars and restaurants now are doing backflips to please customers just to stay open. Irish pubs are renowned the world over for hospitality. Heads up read more

I messaged them about happy hour and got back that they wonderful happy hour specials including half off on appetizers, and numerous drink specials. I decided to stop by with a buddy and when the menus didn't mention any of it I asked and got an attitude and was told it's $2 off draft. I showed the bartender the message so she would see what's being marketed. Then I got the riot act about her being there 14 years and never having anything like it. I could care less how long you've been there, there is a way speak to people and just be nice. Obviously someone from your bar gave me wrong info and I'm sharing that with you, especially if other people are getting the same . It's amazing how people can't be civil anymore. read more

This restaurant has the best hamburger! The place is beautiful and clean. They have a long bar and the service is very friendly!

The food and atmosphere is good. I came here on a Saturday night with some friiends a few weeks ago. There was a Dj and we had so much fun , danced , drank and took bathroom pics oof course. I am in love with the wings. Introduced my kids to French onion soup which was very savory here and they loved it which was surprising for me lol. read more

Had a great family Easter dinner. All 15 people raved about the service and the delicious food. Thank you for making our holiday dinner so special. Fried Calamari was light crispy and right on point. Thank you so much. read more

Went for dinner with visiting family tonight. We had a large group and we called ahead. They had a table ready when we arrived which was great and the food was good. Our problem was totally the waitress. She seemed annoyed the entire time we were there. No one cleared our appetizer plates or empty drinks. My sister started putting dirty dishes on an empty table. The waitress was hard to find and had an attitude when anyone asked for anything. It took forever to get drink refill. We asked about desserts and she brought one menu for 17 people. When we got the check we realized the tip was already included so she didn't have to even try to get her 20%. Maybe This young woman was having been having a bad night but the place was almost empty and we got there at 5:30 so she shouldn't have been tired. It definitely ruined the mood for us. read more

IRISH TIMES has Great pub food and on a good night, ignoring the inherent d-bags... an overall fun time... Great to watch my Giants or your sports team as well... From the sliders to the Ceaser Chicken wrap and back to buffalo wing 2-fers and broccoli bites, chicken cordon blue bites, used to be a go to fave but it's sorta faded over the years. The patio is cool out back and has been updated since back in the day; the DJ gets you dancin and having a good time and that's sorta the point- Different crowds on different days, just be careful who fills your dance card I guess, dbags abound here and if their girl wants to dance, and it ain't with them, they'll start trouble to show their tiny...self esteems. read more

The food here is not to my liking. The restaurant is too big and very roomy. I like a more cozy place

Great food! We usually order via Grub Hub, food is always delicious, arrives hot and perfect

we came to the bar on 1/31with about 25-30 people and they were not very accommodating ! They said we should have called first..... that they only had 1 bar tender and we have alot of people REALLY !!! Then they proceeded to ask my friend to leave with her SERVICE DOG ! i will never go back there again ! Horrible !!!!! read more

Amazing food, and service as well! Restaurant is well kept and great looking both indoors and out. Great for large groups of guests!

We had the absolute pleasure of eating at The Irish Times Pub on a quiet Sunday afternoon after the games and before the dinner crowd with Craig as our server. He is what every server should strive to be, efficient, courteous and fantastic at this job. The food, as always, was fantastic, but our overall dining experience exceeded our expectations because of Craig. read more

If you liked and watched the hit tv series "Cheers" then you would feel like you were going back in time and walking onto set. Pub / restaurant has just enough lighting, great ambiance and decorating nicely. Staff is very friendly, helpful and hard working. I believe our server's name was Jodie and she was the best. Thank you for explaining the drinks, menue choices and stopping by several times to check on us. Husband and I started with French Onion soup and wings. Soup was delicious , perfect amount of onions and cheese. Wings were well done just as we asked. I ordered the Rebuen, the only red meat I eat. I did enjoy but I wish the cut was thicker. Next time I will ask if that is possible. Husband got a cheese burger and said it was really good. Was delighted that all food was delivered hot, very important to me. We sat at a booth but did notice the bar is large and we'll stocked. Told there are approximately 26 Flat screens inside and out. Wow! They have a large room with fire place and it looked cozy and perfect for a party. There is a specious outdoor area with bar, would like to return and check out when the NY weather improves. Had a pleasant lunch and would return during the day but my son said the younger crowd takes over in the evening. So beware!! Lol. read more

Placed a To-Go order. Besides the entire order being completely messed up, the chicken was tough and the burger was mooing. 3/10.

I absolutely love this place. The decor is beautiful. I love the high ceilings. Gorgeous bar! The staff are incredibly friendly and inviting. You feel like family when you're there. The drinks here are amazing. I'm a Long Island Iced Tea girl and I have to say, they make the best. I've always found the food to exceed my expectations. The Filet Mignon (in any dish) is always super tender and perfectly cooked. I'm also a fan of the Irish Whiskey Chicken. The sauce is so flavorful. Their potato soup is also really good. I almost always get a cup when I come in. I can't wait for the social distancing ban to end because I miss going in to sit down. In the meantime, I'm extremely appreciative that the business is delivering, especially that they are delivery cocktails. If you haven't given this place a chance yet, you're missing out. Do yourself a favor and order delivery or takeout from them now but make sure to dine in and experience the friendly atmosphere once this pandemic is over. read more
