We came here for Christmas Eve dinner. It was delightful. The food and cocktails were excellent, the service could not have been better and the atmosphere was festive but not noisy. This was our second Christmas Eve here and it won’t be our last. The crowd is older but I’m older so we fit right in!

As soon as we arrived the hostess made a point to tell us there was a 2 hour limit to the table and if we weren’t finished and they needed the table we would have to move . This was news to us as open table makes No mention of this at all. Apparently guiesss management is addressing this with open table. Also if you’ve already gone to the Guinness brewery in Dublin please be aware this is nothing like that. The beef stew served with au jus broth instead of a hearty beef gravy as usual. Salads and burgers were good. Fried cheese curds amazing ! Service was outstanding
