   Food was very good! We got the spice bag and 2 pizzas. Don't pass on the pizza, you wouldn't expect it to be so good from an Irish pub. Imagine Papa Gino's at its peak but wood fired. Which is a great compliment from the South Shore IMO. Espresso martinis were great! Not overly sweet or overly strong, of course I got mine with Bailey's. Awesome music on the playlist, not overly loud. Excellent service, we loved our waiter. Highly recommend, we will be back until we try the whole menu!

   James from Tipperary was our server and he could not have been better! Food was hot, served quickly, and we never waited for our Guinness and other beverages. Looking forward to returning!

   Went to McGonagle’s on a Friday evening and it was great. The atmosphere was lively but not too loud. The food was tremendous. I got the Irish stew and my husband got the Beef Ragu Pasta. Both were cooked perfectly. The Irish soda bread was amazing; I highly recommend you try it. They even sell loaves to go. Great location for families and others.

   Our first time at McGonagle’s was fantastic! It won’t be our last. We were seated promptly for our 7pm reservation. Our server Maggie was super friendly and helpful. I started with an espresso martini - it was one of the best I’ve ever had. I’d give it a 10/10. And of course the Guinness was the perfect pint. For Food- we started with the batter chicken tenders, the chicken was excellent. The batter and sweet & sour sauce, again 10/10. For dinner I had the very tasty smashburger and my DH had steak tips, mashed potatoes and side salad - he was extremely happy with his choice. The atmosphere is top notch. All the decor and especially the mural behind the stage are beautiful. The debut of the band DEVRI was a huge hit. We will be back to try other menu items and to enjoy one of the best new places around. Congrats and thank you to Oran and all involved in creating another stunning bar/restaurant ☘️ And most importantly, with an incredible staff!!

    Still working out the kinks service-wise. Was seated in lower level which is less cozy and inviting than the street-level section of the restaurant. Salad, bread and fish and chips were pretty good. One of the people at my table had the shepherd's pie and liked it. Would probably give it another shot and hope for a better experience service-wise. Our server was trying hard, but things didn't go smoothly. I asked him for an IPA and he brought me a lager. Then we waited a long time for our food. We had to flag him down to get the bill. It seemed liked he forgot about us for a while.
