Best KPortal Reviews

This place transports you to an authentic Irish pub with grub. The prices are very competitive, they have a kids menu, and it was a light and friendly atmosphere. They offer gluten free options, too! The braised ribs were boneless so I was glad I could just use my fork and not get my hands dirty. The meat was so tender that I didn’t have to use my knife. It’s on the corner by a traffic light so be careful not to fly by it.
The cottage pie was EXTREMELY hot and fresh, very good, and very satisfying. On a cold March evening it was everything I wanted. The beers came quickly and the tap selection was pretty good as well. I also enjoyed the bar atmosphere and got a kick out of the comically huge bottles of Irish whiskey.
Live music. Food was great. However we sat at the bar and there was only one bartender there for too many people.
The wait can be long. Reservations can be made any day but day of so be prepared. Place was packed at 530pm.
Amazing. Immaculate. Immutable. Hit on all cylinders. Got the cottage pie and it hit the spot in ways I never imagined. Bathroom was so clean I’d eat off the floor. Cheesecake for dessert was one of the best I’ve had. I’ll be back
Finally had a chance to come here and eat after many recommendations to come and check them out and I was not disappointed this restaurant has become my new favorite place the food the atmosphere and staff we’re nothing short of amazing not one single complaint from my table of five we left satisfied and very full the quality and portions were great and we all had leftovers I got the corned beef and cabbage meal the meat was so tender and flavorful the potatoes cabbage and carrots were all so tender and delicious as well can’t wait to try more dishes on the menu.
First time had lunch delish I will be back lots to choose from on the menu friendly atmosphere, clean , server very helpful French onion soup & Reuben tender had to bring home the rest large portions . Next time trying the fish & chips
Food and service were both really good. Parking lot was full, which let me know I found a great place and I wasn't disappointed. I had the Cottage Chicken Pie, a daily special and it was great.
The corned beef and cabbage with potatoes and carrots is enough for 2 meals. My husband said it was amazing. His only complaint there was so much food, he needed a bigger plate.
My baked haddock with rice and green beans was terrific! We split a garden salad which was so good. Our server Deborah was wonderful.
We will be back!
