    Fun place on St. Patrick’s Day! The beef stew was excellent. The music was great. I’ll definitely go back.

    The Beef Chuck in Guinness gravy is particularly good. I've also had the "Hound Burger" there, and liked it a lot. Next time, I'd like to try the Salmon and one of the desserts. We enjoyed the jazz band on Saturday evening 2/22.

    On all of our past visits here, we have been blown away by the quality of the meals. This time, not so much. We each ordered the burger and asked for varying degrees of ‘doneness’ ranging from Medium Raw to Medium Well. The Medium-Medium burger arrived raw and had to be sent back. When it returned, only one-half of the burger had been recooked; the other half was in its original state. My Medium-Well request produced a burger that was more on the Medium-Raw side but edible. Only the person who ordered a Medium-Raw burger was pleased. Perhaps the chef objects to cooking burgers beyond their raw state? I realize that most of their patrons are probably not wine drinkers (especially white wine drinkers) but could we few have a larger selection of white wines (by the glass) available? The young lady waiting on our table was attentive and helpful. We made a confusing request re how we wanted to split the bill but she immediately produced the version that made all our lives easier. A big shoutout for providing a birthday treat free of charge and singing happy birthday to the birthday girl. That was lovely!

    The Hunter's Hound Restaurant was perfect for a last-minute Valentine's date. The menu has the usual pub grub, but some dishes stand out. My partner got the Fried Chicken Sandwich and a Chardonnay, while I went with the Filet of Beef Medallions and a Guinness Draught Stout. Everything was absolutely spot on, and the food quality was genuinely exceptional! This place is great for hanging out with friends or grabbing a casual dinner. Just keep in mind that it can get pretty loud during peak times.

    The tables are set too close together. People in adjacent tables can hear your conversation and the other way around. It is really uncomfortable.
