Once again, everything was spot on! Service, cocktails food and ambiance continues to make this the perfect spot for dining. Best Halibut I think I’ve ever had ! The Banana Split was a total blast to eat with 5 other weight conscious gay men ! Throw caution to the wind!

    My first time at McDonagh's. It was St Patrick's day and the place was very crowded but not crazy. My party all had the corned beef and cabbage dinner . Nice portions and the food was good. We also, had the corned beef egg rolls...there were delicious. I strongly recommend these. They have a large and diverse menu of Pub favorites. I will definitely be going back there soon.
