Nine Fine Irishmen
2023 Sep 09
This place has a really cool vibe, very british pub with dark wood and exposed brick with stained glass windows. The food is typical Irish fare like shepard's pie, fish & chips or bangers and mash. They have a variety of Irish beers on tap, as well as whiskey.
I really wanted some fish & chips, and also noticed "Colcannon" on the menu. I remember a Liam Neeson sound bite where he said his family always had some colcannon in the house at all times, and I never heard of it so we ordered it.
It's basically a creamy soup made with potatoes, cabbage, onions, and cream. It was pretty good, and cheap ($10), but I couldn't finish it.
The fish & chips ($28) were just not that great. The fried fish should be crispy on the outside, with moist flaky fish inside. The outside on this fish was not crispy at all. Neither were the fries (the "chips"). They were soggy and just not good in general. Worst was the fish batter...it had no seasoning at all. The one saving grace: the tartar sauce was pretty good.
I don't know, maybe others like it, but I've had great fish & chips elsewhere and I was just hoping for a good meal.
The beer was good, and so was the service. I loved the vibe here, the food not so much.
