    Only looks that good because of my photo skills
    Amanda C.

    Ever since Cesar has left. This bar definitely isn't the same. I just like to come because it's close to me. The espresso martini was nice but just doesn't have the same vibe. Definitely not as frequent as I used to be. The girl asked for my card I didn't say whether I was keeping it open or closing. She just assumed I was keeping a tab. Customer service has gone down exponentially. For sure.

    The staple Irish fare is offered on the menu with an Asian twist of sushi next door. Pub bar and Asian bar all different but mashed together. The service I received for dinner was up to par. My server checked in with me numerous times. The ambiance is bar/pub with multiple methods of sitting from couches, round pub tables, pub counter, and pub booths. It has darts and other pub games with NUMEROUS TVs around the establishment. I heard about the Happy Hour Specials and will be back soon!

    Located near galleria plenty parking shared with a few other businesses . Nice vibes and definitely can't wait to go back . The manager Tony (Toni) super dope acknowledging everyone ensuring all are feeling welcomed in the establishment. Perfect guy for the job! I will be back !! Loads of TVs for all the big games !

    Ducky McShweenys is a nice sportsbar with tons of screens it even has games and a big old couch to lounge on. The service was good and the food was OK. The drinks were STRONG which is good since almost all of the drinks are $16 and up unless you get beer. You can also order sushi from its partner restaurant next door which my son loved. Cool spot to watch the game.

    I spent a month at this bar one night. Excellent place to people watch with very friendly locals. There's a shuffle board court and darts to keep you entertained. The bartenders are responsive and prompt.

    Inside.... Very cool!!! Love the sofa setup!

    Had a great time dropping in to kill some time and grab a beer. Made it during happy hour and was able to enjoy some chicken tenders and mozzarella sticks. Super friendly team helping us through and highly impressed on the fun decor!!! Give these guys a try!!

    Items double charged. Violation of tip policy as per their menu.
    Jordan A.

    Update: I left a message and an employee from the sushi place next door called back to acknowledge my voicemail. I explained the situation and requested a refund. I also informed the employee, that Cesar's conduct while on duty is unacceptable as my group witnessed him kissing an intoxicated customer on the couch. The restaurant employee informed me the manager from ducky's would return my call. When I spoke to the manager from the bar, she was apologetic for the service we received and stated that it doesn't align with the restaurant's expectations. I was refunded for the tip and shot. I am happy the issue was resolved in a timely manner. Cesar and the restaurant are violating their agreement to the customers. Cesar charged us twice for a shot when he said he would for one due to one spilling. He gave us poor service until we checked out because he knew would charge 20% tip for a party of five. He did not inform us the 20% tip would be included for a party of five on one check until the check arrived. As per the menu listed, a charge of 20% would be done for a party of 6+, and split check. Additionally, he charged me for a margarita that my colleague ALREADY PAID. He was rude, unresponsive and inconsiderate. Would not recommend. Cesar is scamming customers. If the auto tip, margarita, and shot are not taken off my credit card, I will be filing a dispute and reporting them to the state.

    14 inch cheese pizza with mushrooms! $7 during happy hour!
    Terri S.

    This Irish pub was cute and we had a great, quick lunch!! The service was outstanding and the service was good. The Happy hour menu started at 11 am! The nachos were large and filing and I actually enjoyed them. Portions were HUGE and the server took care of us. Try a cheese pizza! They are delicious

    Bar near entrance.
    Laurice Len A.

    The location is a tucked in a strip mall. Not much outside but cozy inside. TV's, darts, shuffleboard, couches, booth, and bar seating. Service at the bar was great. Pizza was hot and fresh. The crab rangoon garlic bread was okay. I did like the fuzzy mule which was refreshing. Cool place to hangout which is connected to a sushi restaurant.

    Pizza dumb ass

    I come here a lot but tonight specifically the pizza was cooked to perfection. Better than any pizza I've gotten from Gypsy poet or tiny champions which are usually my favorites. Whoever was cooking the pizza tonight should always be in charge. Always a shoutout to Caesar, Michelle, Tony, Hannah and the rest of the people that always do an incredible job. Also don't miss out on the sushi from next door being available at ducks. The Philly squared.

    Nachos
    Dan C.

    Nachos are legit... I got the plane Jane nachos... no meat... I mean it's not a destination meal... but if you wanna bite while you drink, not too bad

    Bar seating with TVs
    Cathy C.

    The ambiance was great! Very spacious with lots of TVs for sports. Service was good especially when the bartender noticed the cider I was drinking was cloudy and sour. We ordered the wings and I was kinda disappointed when we only got 5 wings for $12. I was hoping for a few more but they were crispy and tasty.

Steak night starts at 7, which means that's when they start taking orders. If you want to beat the rush, you should already be in your seat by 6:30-6:45. It's a two-man show on steak night. The husband is outside grilling everything on what looks like a standard home grill while the wife is taking orders. Orders go out in batches. They're definitely efficient and work as fast as they can, but with that comes a little abruptness- they aren't the friendliest, but they're focused on getting everyone fed. We got there at 7:05 and didn't get our food until 8:25. Was the wait worth it? Absolutely. The steak was tender and juicy. The lamb chop was charred perfectly. And surprisingly enough, the sausage was my favorite. It was JUICY. When you bite into it, the juices literally burst out.

If you can't handle spice, I'd recommend just sticking to their ninja sauce though. The pineapple and mashed potatoes provide a nice break from all the meat as well.

    I'm actually giving a four and a half stars review. The reason is within the review…read more It was the first time for me (last Saturday, July 13, 2024) to visit this establishment. I came there for a pre-concert meal; DJ Jazzy Jeff, Paula Abdul, and New Kids on the Block were performing at the Pavilion that night. Don't roll y'all's eyes. Lol. When I arrived, it didn't seem busy at all, so I seated myself at the bar. But, it did take a while for me to be noticed. First off, I had to ask a fellow patron for the menu which was beside him. After saying hello to one of the bartenders, he didn't bother to ask me if I wanted to drink anything. Granted he was setting up some drinkware, I didn't want to mess him up as he was organizing them. So, I let him be. It was not until another five minutes that his co-worker asked me what I wanted to order. Luckily, with preparation, I already knew what I wanted. First was the drinks. I ordered "The Godfather" (Tullamore D.E.W. Irish Whiskey | Disaronno Amaretto | Aromatic Bitters | Luxardo Cherry), which was really good! Nice and even drink with no overpowering flavors. Along with "The Godfather" came my usual accompaniments of iced tea, and water. Second was the food. Since I didn't know how big of a portion were the entrees, I played it safe by ordering two appetizers: Shepherds Pie Dumplings ("Homemade dumplings stuffed with marinated pork in traditional Irish seasonings. Served on top of mashed potatoes and finished with a green pea purée."), and Duck Wings (six wings "tossed in a Sweet Guinness sauce."). Usually, dumplings are steamed or lightly fried, but these dumplings were deep fried to a dark, golden brown. And with their accompaniments, they were really good! The wings with that sweet sauce were really good, too! I had to use a knife and fork because I didn't want to leave a mess all over myself. Would I visit them again? Maybe. I do have a concert next month. :-)
