All the staff are friendly here and attentive. I side is fun and Irish-like. Food was pretty good...my dad really enjoyed the fish n chips! I'll return for sure.

The absolute best Irish food this side of the Atlantic Ocean. We go here all the time and try to get something different everytime. The curry chicken is to die for. The pot pies are insane. The potato soup is great because they don't use bacon. The service is top notch. Oh yeah, the beers and Irish whiskey shots can't be compared to. This place ROCKS.

The food was good, but small portions and high prices. We went on a Friday night, so I can’t complain about the crowd at a pub, but we had to wait more than an hour after being told half of that. I’ll give the host credit, though: he checked on us and reassured us a lot. My biggest problem: three separate groups of people were smoking just a few feet from the entrance and right next to our 4-year-old. Neither the girl at the podium nor security said anything to these people who were in obvious violation of California’s Smoke-Free Workplace Act (Labor Code 6404.5). Because of the unsafe environment, I’m unlikely to go back and will certainly not recommend it to anyone else.

Stopped in for lunch while I was visiting Ventura. The service was great and the food was good. I'm not a big cheese fan, but the Guinness onion soup was really tasty and the hoagie sandwich was super flavorful. We sat outside because we had our dog and they brought out water for her and made us feel at home. I would definitely recommend this place if you are in the area

Had really good time on Friday before St. Patrick's Day. The place is always crowded but we found a table in the bar area. The service was awesome, loved the green beer, and food great.

Good atmosphere, service is fast, prices are right. Beer and burger was my order. Patty melt had sweet onions, and the meat was top quality. Service is outstanding.

The Irish breakfast should be taken off the menu. What Irish Breakfast has French fries, American BBQ style baked beans, economy American bacon, and no puddings? It's a joke! The only Irish thing on the plate is some second-rate brown bread. The establishment and staff are lovely, though!

Very good potato leek soup. My wife had the shrimp and potato appetizer with this really delicious spicy buffalo sauce. It was something else. The server was very friendly and helpful.

This place is great! Been here a few times with friends that live in Oxnard. We went here our first time during covid and they were amazing even with limited staff and dealing with restrictions. We've been a number of times since and it is quickly becoming a favorite when we go to shows and such down town.

overall was a fine experience. appetizers and food was good. but our server rachel I think must have woke up on the wrong side of the bed. she made us feel like we were bothering her when we tried to order.
