It was probably my first time being introduced to Irish pubs and the traditional dishes and drinks that they serve. Today, I was walking around near the ASU Downtown Campus and came across Seamus McCaffrey's. I gave it a try for lunch and enjoyed some tasty food and great service. While I didn't grab a drink, I'd certainly consider meeting friends after work there another time. I walked into the bar, and I was literally behind the bar where is was quite dark. Many of the bar seats were taken though I stepped into an area behind the bar where there were a number of open tables where I could seat myself. There was yet another room further back with booths and some creative decor, though I was happy with a table near the bar. The server came right over and made some great suggestions and introduced herself to me. She checked on me multiple times during the meal and made sure I liked what I picked. I ordered an item off the Traditional Favorites menu, the Chicken Pot Pie, which consisted of tender shredded chicken, peas and carrots smothered with herbs in a creamy white gravy under a flaky puff pastry. It also came up with a cheese stick. Both were tasty yet not too filling as I expected. There was a light breaded top to a bowl and then no bread on the bottoms or sides, but that was alright as I didn't need an over-the-top dish for lunch. While the prices are a bit higher than I would have expected them to be, it was certainly worth it, and I'll be back again. Seamus McCaffrey's opened in 1991 and brought a real Irish pub to Central Phoenix. It is a family-run bar that serves Irish classics and pub favorites. From Boxty, shepherd's pie, and fish and chips along with stacked sandwiches, burgers, and starters, the menu is not huge but still feels like it has a bit of everything. They have live music on the weekend and host special events throughout the year. The biggest celebration is its annual St. Patrick's Day street party on Monroe, a Downtown Phoenix tradition filled with great beer, great food, and a whole lot of green. Check out its website (https://seamusmccaffreys.com) to see its menu, upcoming events, photo gallery, and specials. The specials include daily specials, happy hour specials, and a $13 lunch menu. I look forward to returning again this summer!

2010 marks the Fifth Annual Great Cajun Cook-Off & Food Fest, but it was my very first time…read moreattending, so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. Ever since living in Louisiana and falling in love with Southern food and culture, I periodically need to get my dose of gumbo, jambalaya, crawfish and the like. This festival did not disappoint! First off, location was perfect. The Heritage Square and surrounding Science Park made for a wonderful backdrop to showcase local businesses that feature Cajun and Southern cuisine. Food was inclusive with the ticket price (the bare bones option runs about $25 per adult) which had to be pre-purchased on-line through the Cactus Cajun Foundation. And there were plenty of booths from which to sample all matters of goodies. I tried at least three types of gumbo, from Ocean Trail at Talking Resort, D'Licious Dishes, and Cajun Seafood Corner. Rarely did anyone skimp on the spices, but if you still preferred it hotter, bottles of Louisiana hot sauce were ubiquitous. I also enjoyed crawfish and deep fried turkey from Arizona Crawfish Company... awesome! The barbequed smoked chicken from Stacy's Smokehouse was quite tasty, and the most generous portion of the evening. This was quite an education on where to find Cajun food and Southern-influenced dining in the greater Phoenix area. This included not only Cajun-themed restaurants, many of which I have sought out and visited, but lesser known venues that feature signature Cajun/Creole dishes on their menus. I was thrilled to discover a brand new business that is bringing a Cajun food truck to the area! Jamburritos Cajun Grille served their house jambalaya which was near-perfect with its combination of spices, rice, chicken and andouille sausage. I may turn into a rabid Twitter follower of this food truck once they go live. Phoenix is slowly embracing the food truck craze and this is definitely a step in the right direction. I need not add too many more details so other Yelpers who attended can tell you what a fun event this was. The bands playing on two different stages really kept the vibe fun and light, and I am already looking forward to returning next year. Hats (and beads) off to the organizers of this annual event who you know really care because they made sure to have plenty of Abita Beer available!

I was there while they were straightening out that little situation & the natives were getting wrestles wanting their promised liquor. 2. The judging of the Cook-off needs to be more organized. They were not handing out the voting information out to everyone or explaining it correctly at the entrances. On top of that they had pitted strange things together, like Black Beans vs Red Velvet Cake.... HUH??!! Seriously, at least do categories & keep main dishes separated from desserts,,, I'm just saying!

What I'd like to see is more of an effort to think of people's experiences while visiting. It tends to be overcrowded and over booked. If an event is going on there is a long line that usually the wait is over an hour in the hot sun. I have been there now 3 times for events and each time it has been miserable due to long lines (food, entry, restrooms, and drinks). RSVP and reservations in my opinion should be first of the line or at least a separate line.. I would say they aren't accessible here. There are stairs everywhere and not enough ramps. Bathrooms especially aren't accessible to get to but they do offer accessible bathroom stalls. What I love about the pemberton when you go and there is not an event going on it's really nice. You have a lot of space and a variety of food to choose from. They have amazing themes that go along with their food and art. They have a restaurant with 2 stories two bars. Another thing I love is their pool! Such a fun time and a great way to have a cocktail!

This RoRo staple has gotten even better since the remodel a couple years back! We most recently stopped by for a free First Friday performance, when a lovely quartet took the stage. Seats cleared out quickly during the break, and we were able to grab a nice side view. The acoustics were perfect all throughout the room -- loud enough to be immersed in the music, but quiet enough for groups to easily chat. The gorgeous lighting and velvety curtains behind the stage really add to the ambiance. The staff was super attentive, walking around to take drink and food orders. The food isn't anything crazy, but I still enjoyed the charcuterie plate as little snack (and a way to support this amazing local venue during the free set!). Highly recommend this incredible jazz club!

Since the remodel, it has a really swanky vibe that gives you that jazz club feeling. (Just bring a sweater because it can get really chilly in there!) Unfortunately, the drink situation is a bit of a racket. You cannot get water without paying for it (they only will sell pricey bottled waters), and even if you're just getting soda water from the fountain, they will charge your four dollars for a refill! My husband paid $12 for 3 small cups of soda water with a bunch of ice on a recent visit. You can buy cases of seltzer for that price! Their cocktails and wines are on point with other local establishments, but charging $4 for water - especially in Phoenix - feels a little scammy.

** Dining While Black!**…read more My group made a reservation two weeks ago. We are from out of town. We showed up on time, dressed according to the restaurants requirements and was immediately led to the bar by one of the hostess. When I asked why we were sitting at the bar she said that the reservation was for the bar or the table. A couple that came in after us was immediately sat at a four top table in front of rhe band. There were other tables available and was told that they were for other guests. When I asked why they sat a couple at a four top after us they apologized and said that they could possibly sit us at a table later. I believe that we were not catered to is because we were black. If you are black and thinking about coming to this restaurant please look elsewhere.
