    Chicken Pesto
    Carmella P.

    It's a little bit overpriced for what it is. It is seemingly fresh ingredients. that tiny little cup of French onion soup should be about five dollars instead of nine. French onion soup was pretty hearty and good, My sandwich was refreshing and filling. Just needed a tad bit of salt. They definitely need to update their website because when you're ordering over the phone, you're thinking you're getting the cheaper prices. The dining room is quaint. It's like a classic small town bar. they said hello to me right when I walked in the door, which is a plus. and I like how the chips seemed to be homemade.

    Pulled Pork Sandwich

    This place is disgusting. Go anywhere else in Sanford and have a better time. Food made me, my wife and my two kids deathly ill. Cold disgusting burger, somehow they messed up a french onion soup and a pulled pork "sandwich" that was mostly morphed with the container it was given to us in. The inside wreaks of cigarettes, the beer ordered was flat and the waitress/ hostess is extremely rude. Normally not one to leave a review but good people of Sanford go eat somewhere else! Gross. 0/10 will never go back here again.

    Tried this the other day, and overall it was just average. Some good things are the portion sizes,…read moredrinks are good and they have live music on Fridays which I love. Couple downfalls though, the service was really really slow, it took forever to get a drink or our orders in. Where we were sat was kind of in a weird spot where you cannot see the music and you are right in the front when you walk in. Also I got the fish tacos and they were sooo salty. The people I was with got the steak tips and they said they were good!

    My daughter had a softball game in the area so we stopped into 38 West on a whim. Parking was…read moreplentiful and upon walking in, our first thought was that it was nicer inside than we were expecting, like it had just been remodeled. There was a fresh scent and it seemed well kept. Our waitress let us know the specials. Both were mushroom appetizers, which I thought was a little strange. She also said they were out of mashed potato, which bummed me out a little cause I was going to get the baked haddock with mash. We decided to order a kids butter pasta, chicken finger dinner and chicken Alfredo pizza. Once everything came out, my son was putting Parmesan on his noodles when I noticed mold in the jar. The waitress was apologetic and took the cheese and dish away. I asked if we could order a cheese pizza in its place. I strayed in on my Alfredo chicken pizza. I wasn't crazy about the crust and the few couple slices each had some chewy bites of chicken that I had to take out of my mouth. My daughter seemed happy with her tenders but the fries were so thick, they didn't have any crisp to them- just large slices of potato. We got boxes and asked for the cheese pizza "to go", as well as our check. To my surprise, the pasta was still on the bill. When I pointed that out to the waitress and suggested they be taken off (due to the moldy cheese), she said she'd need to ask the manager. After a bit of a discussion between the two of them, the noodles were removed, but I thought that should have been a no brainer. The waitress was very sweet, neither the cheese or the bill was any fault of hers, but we didn't have a great first impression.

    This is definitely my favorite Irish restaurant/pub and wish it was closer to me. The decor is…read morepretty cool and unique. My family and I enjoyed dining there. The service and food were fantastic. I had an Irish coffee with Bailey's and it was so good I had to have another. For my meal, I did the Irish sampler; 3 bowls consisting of Shepard's pie, beef stew, and pot pie. All were amazing but my favorites were the beef stew then the Shepard's pie. Overall, a great spot for some Irish food and can't wait to go back!

    May Kelly's certainly has an eclectic way of being decorated. It has a lot of antique signs and…read moreobjects throughout. We booked the "red room" for a party of 10 patrons which we scheduled far in advance. The people that were in the room before us ran over on their time, so we had to wait about 18 minutes after our reservation. The room is pretty cramped due to the length of the table, but it was cute and cozy. The max amount of people is 12 in this room. I had the taste of Ireland, which gives you three dishes in sample size: shepherds pie, beef stew & chicken pot pie. For $19.00 (kind of steep) it was okay. You can tell that there's a lot of pride, and it has a "just like mama used to make" method of cooking. Seems like they take a lot of pride in all of their dishes. It seems that everybody truly enjoyed their dishes, even the ones that had salad. Again, it was really nice that we were able to have our very own room. I would certainly come back and have the corned beef and cabbage meal; that's what my mother had and she said it was great. The only negative thing I would say is that our waitress seemed like she was a bit annoyed, having to wait on a large group and we needed to split our checks. Other than that I felt that our service was sufficient.

Finally, now that the 'newness' wore off, 4 of us were able to grab a table with ease. There was live music & they post on their Facebook page regularly with updates on food & cocktail specials. We decided on appetizers: nachos w/ chicken, mozzarella sticks & potato skins. The nachos were really good - I liked the chips they used. The mozzarella sticks were a bit underwhelming, similar to frozen ones I've purchased at BJs. The potato skins tasted like they were made in-house. ABOVE & BEYOND MOMENT: Our server, Jackie, was friendly & patient with our requests. I had asked if they could make a spicy margarita. She asked the bartender & they were out of their jalapeno tequila so they asked if it was okay to muddle fresh jalapenos instead. I said I trusted the bartender to do what they thought best. When my margarita was delivered, the Jackie asked if I wouldn't mind tasting it to make sure it wasn't too spicy. I think the fact they custom made the drink & ensured it was to my liking was great. I see mixed reviews about the prices. I honestly found that appetizers averaging about $15 was on the high side. We'd like to go back for dinner, maybe when there isn't live music. Very loud due to the small space. The ambience is a cleaned up version of J.J. Goodwins & there are (2) pool tables.
