My name is Bassel. I will talk. I prefer heavy drinks and not beers. Beers consume too much space in my stomach, and from the surgery I had, I can't use it all. I prefer heavier drinks because without the slow trance, I do not feel like I weigh an extra 40lb. I drink Guinness here and this is why I CHOSE this pub. It is hard to find it served anywhere. If you want to see me drink through heavy drinks and be the most stable guy ever with amazing charisma, come to this bar. It's called Irish Tavern.

I have been to the Tony Gwynn Sports Pub twice. The first time it was a regular sit-down restaurant…read moreand was great. But my most recent visit was for one of the special "endless dining" options. On select nights (Wed-Sun), they offer different endless dining options. I went on a Saturday, which was a "Surf & Surf" menu. LOTS of seafood items to select from, including lobster tails! Honestly, I loved this place. It was expensive ($75 per person), so I don't know that I would do it often, but it was a nice treat. The restaurant is not a traditional buffet, so that setup is a little strange. There is a main buffet line, where the staff will plate the food for you. And then if you want salads, oysters or shrimp there is a separate station for that, across one side of the room. And a dessert station on the other side of the room (I almost missed this one!). The over all theme of the place is a sports pub. So there is a bar and tons of TV's showing all the popular sporting events. And of course there are tons of Padre related memorabilia and images on the walls to enjoy.

We luckily knew we wanted the roast and fish and chips. They did not disappoint. I got extra gravy and I am so glad I did because we dipped the fries. Glad I waited for the Sunday roast because the meat was super tender and cooked perfectly. Fish and chips were also good and paired well with the malt vinegar and tartar they had with it. Would definitely recommend.
