Only average in food and service. A bit over-priced for value received. Fun to sit and watch lots of people go by.

Go for the beer not the food. Staff was good but it was a little different being in an Irish pub with an Italian accent.

If you love IRish pubs, this is the spot for you. Good selection of beers, right near the Metro station, they really know how to make french fries = hot out of the fryer! I wouldn't go here to eat dinner, but to relax with good atmosphere and a pint, it is excellent! Plays good music too.

Good atmosphere to watch a sporting event but avoid the food . Ordered two meals after a day exploring Rome and on both plates the chips and onion rings were stone cold. Sent them back and they returned the same .
