10. Old Man Rafferty's

Reviewed By K16kid
We went out for the evening with our adult children and grandchildren and haven't been to Rafferty's in a while. My wife had a lobster dish, I had the shrimp po boy, my son had the stuffed flounder, and his wife had the french dip. The salads Keaton, our waitress, brought were huge, the blue cheese dressing pretty much right on. The dinners arrived and each and every one looked spectacular. If only they tasted as good as they looked. My son's comment about the stuffed flounder was that it had no flavor - next time he'll order fish with flavor. My wife's lobster special was merely a shell pasta with some lobster in a sauce - ok, not great. My daugher-in-law's french dip was fine, but nothing to write home about. And my shrimp po boy was ok - I've had better elsewhere. For the price you pay, it was unanimous at our table - there are better restaurant choices. The highlight of the night - our waitress Keaton - excellent service. If only the food were as good as it looks or as good as her service. Thanks Keaton.

Took granddaughters here. Not a good place with kids, too slow, melt down ensued. The food was ok, but I think it sat a while before it came out. Will try again when we do an adult night out.

We were immediately greeted and seated by lisa who was very pleasant. the menu is a typical Tap & Bar menu...tried a bunch of appetizers, nothing wow'd us....had the french onion soup with a burger.. Bar area was busy, but the food was boring and typical. Service was good, prices are typical. Just another bar/grill place on 22...wouldn't go out of my way to go there.
6. Willy McBride's
Reviewed By JerseyShoreJohn
We decided to try Willie McBride's despite several reviews that were critical of the service and food. We're glad that we did. The Corn Beef and Cabbage platter is the best I've ever had in a pub: lean, tender and tasty. So was the Hanger Steak. Our waiter (Tyler) was knowledgeable and attentive. Portions are generous. Nice atmosphere. Great value.

The restaurant was full, so the service wasn't as attentive as I had expected, and the tables were close enough together that the conversations from adjacent tables was annoying. I noticed that none of the servers were smiling and I found that odd.I enjoyed my three appetizers and they were so filling that I didn't have room for dessert, other than a delicious glass of Warrior Port.I recommend the poached pear salad (I ordered the dressing on the side), the tuna tartare and the gnocchi (with brussel sprouts, feta and squash or pumpkin puree.)

I was there for a business lunch. The location is fine with tables not so close preserving then pricavy. I got Ribbs (half portion) and they were great both as taste and size. Service a bit slow. Staff kind.
