    Fish and chips could have been fresher and hotter, and crispier. Guiness on tap was great. The three people I was with had no complaints of the food. The service was slow, we were there on a Sunday at 6 oclock. Mr. Dolan was lovely and friendly and we would definitely go back. Love the pub style atmosphere.

    We took our family of 4 (two small children) to Rory’s. Rory Dolan himself greeted us and set us up with food and drinks. He was very friendly and welcoming, which was appreciated. We ate some good Irish comfort food, which we enjoyed. Of note, we loved the variety of options on the kids menu, which saved us from overspending on our kids, since both of our kids found something they wanted to eat on the kids menu. And major bonus, the kids menu includes ice cream at the end of the meal! My husband and I had a few drinks and we managed to spend less than $100, which is hard to do pretty much anywhere! So, it was definitely a great value for us!

    I have been to Rory's for the past 25 years including St, Patrick's Day, New Year's Eve, Valentine's Day, Birthday celebrations as well as many brunches. I have always been satisfied with the variety and quality of meal choices as well as the service. The restaurant is always decorated well and adds to the enjoyment of the meal!

    Five out of five loved their food. Four opted for breakfast and one bacon cheese burger on a toasted english muffin. If it wouldn't have been rude, we'd have licked the plates! Thanks Rory.

    Wonderful restaurant!! They took excellent care of us and treated my mother like a queen. It was a birthday celebration and they surprised her with balloons and a trifle birthday dessert with a candle. Highly recommend!

    Great aesthetic, nicely kept, CLEAN and attractive venue and lovely attentive staff. Food was okay, I'd prefer this location for drinks versus a meal. Was a full house with lots of events so was extremely loud. Would definitely return for drinks/bar.

    We visited Rory Dolan's with the kids - the menu is family friendly with something for everyone. I do think that the quality of the food has only gotten better! The service was outstanding, friendly and attentive. The prices are fair and the kids menu is very good.

    Celebrated my dad's 91st bday at his favorite place. Waitstaff put a candle in his sherry trifle and sang happy birthday to him, unbidden. Nice touch. Rory himself always around to greet his customers. Great experience, true Irish hospitality, and great food.

    It pains me to leave a poor review however I have to , I have been coming here for over 20 years and for the first time I can say the food is not good. The menu has shrunk I totally understand that but the food quality is low. My wife had a ceaser salad that was poor quality romaine lettuce no flavor I had the short rib that was not cooked properly with mashed potatoes that were horrible. I hope they can get back on track.

    We had the pleasure of going to Rory’s lastnight following an event and were amazed by the level of service even before getting to our meals , specifically Molly was so caring, informative and customer minded as we were trying to figure out what to eat .. Kidos to her … the food was scrumptious particularly the corn beef egg rolls and burgers , will definitely be returning when in town

    The food was not good Baked clams were burned. The pasta was mushy Calamari undercooked. The lobster so spicy it could have been anything. No regular hamburgers for kids. They are spiced with garlic and adobe. A once vibrant restaurant was half empty No value for the money A shame The upside was a good waitress. Never go back though. Have heard the same from many people.

    We had such a great time at Rory Dolan’s tonight. Our server Jessica was most attentive, which isn’t easy when your dealing with a party of 10. The food was great, the perfect pub grub that our college boys were craving. The Guinness was poured perfectly. The best part of our night was that we got to meet Rory Dolan himself! Rory, you have done a wonderful job with your establishment! We will be back!
