They have rotating specials all the time, but their regular menu is so good that I just can't move away. Their smash burger is fantastic, but their salads are nice and hefty, so even if you're trying to eat light, you leave full and satisfied. Caesar salads are simple and standard everywhere, but I'm always happy with the one I get from Murray's - well dressed with a yummy cheese crisp on top. Their wings are delicious, always come out piping hot, and have a creative array of sauces. The variety of fries are impressive too and all of them are delicious (though, when are fries really not delicious?!) My favorite thing about Murray's is the front outdoor seating area. When the weather is a bit cooler, they'll turn on the gas heaters, so you can have a comfortable meal and still enjoy some fresh air. But what makes it truly my favorite is that it's dog friendly! It's always so tough to find spots that allow dogs, but Murray's staff is always so kind to us when we bring our dog with us for dinner, and they'll even bring out a bowl of water for him. Good service comes from the top, and we've met John, who is incredibly nice and friendly. Conversations with him are consistently pleasant and we love that he's always open to sharing what he knows about food and drink! The staff also provides kind, speedy service, which we definitely appreciate. The only negative about Murray's is the fact that we only found them a year ago and hate that we didn't find out about them sooner!

I also got a side of curry sauce for the chips and that was a good move. Service was a bit slow, it seemed like there was only one server. They forgot our waters and when the food arrived they forgot to give us cutlery and napkins, so we flagged them down a couple times. It was very dark inside, but the festive decor added some light and pops of color. The space was pretty full and it got a touch noisy but we were still able to have a decent conversation. Will be back for some Guinness and meat pies at the bar.

There is literally fun everywhere you look from the panda stuffed animal riding a tiger on the wall to the hilarious shrek pillow. Coming right when they open I was able to see these things that you would likely not see in the evening. But to be fair I came right when they opened since it is first come first serve. A majority of the drinks were more on the savory side which was very interesting like "may all your bacon burn" with bacon bites at the top of the drink. The drinks my friend had were all stunning with the use of egg yolk to elevate the drink. We ended the evening by walking over to Bow Market and trying Viet Citron which was so DANG GOOD my gosh. The to go orders were insane but looks like they are doing very well despite recently opening in. I got the grilled lemongrass pork ribs bowl and youtiao and the side sauce was so good. The ribs were all very meaty. It looks small but I was surprised how full I was after having it. Nice night of drinks and food.

The staff is top tier friendly and ridiculously attentive, and the whole place just has this vibe where it genuinely feels like family, both the staff and the patrons make you feel at home in a way I've honestly never experienced at any other bar. And it's not just a bar either, on the other side you've got "Franny's," set up like a classic diner with black and white checkerboard floors and those small barstools right by the grill where you can sit and watch them cook breakfast. I've probably worked my way through just about the entire menu, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and I've never once been disappointed, whether it's pizza, calzones, steak tips, burgers, sandwiches, pasta, homemade soups, or their rotating specials, everything is consistently excellent. The drinks are just as good, they'll make basically anything you ask for without hesitation. They've also got karaoke every Saturday night, Trivia on Thursday nights, TouchTunes for music, darts, multiple TVs for watching sports, Keno, and an ATM, which to me checks all the boxes for a local bar. Between the staff, the camaraderie, the quality of the food, and the drinks, you really can't go wrong, and now they've added an incredible dessert menu that I haven't been able to stay away from either. From the second I walked in, I knew this place was different, and it really is that good.

Shelly makes a great White Russian and Kev is very kind and fun when he is working. I always try to leave a good tip and I love Debbie, she is an angel.

I was so grateful because last night they bartender said there was no more milk and didn't have change to break a $5 so I can leave her a tip regardless. As long as you mind your business and don't cause any trouble they will treat you right and you will leave in a better mood than you came in.

Careful, they charge per soda (no free refills) Our waiter was super nice and attentive. We went for a PATS playoff game on a Saturday night. Also, we reserved for 8. When i got there I said if a few other friends were to come can they stand near our table? I was told they cannot enter, no standing....WELL even before the game started there were people standing around full tables. Next time I will not obey...lol. I had to call a few friends and tell them there was no standing room, LAME! This is why I gave it a 4 star.

We had the Buffalo chicken pizza and I did the real veal and pasta lunch plate. Pricing is very reasonable, good size portions and fresh ingredients, the veal was plentiful and tender.

Overall a decent option for lunch, a couple of peeps out of our office generally go for dinner and luv it. For me it'll stay in the lunch rotation, I've got to try out a few more of their options.
