Claddagh Irish Pub Southside Works

I wanted to try this place, but I got confused. I was misinformed, but I really expected more of an ethnic experience, like what they received in the hoffbraugh house directly above the road. Wasnt expects a top 40 hip hop mix to listen to the sound system and see afteros on the menu. However, the real experience killer was the lack of service and the inappropriate waiting times between ordering and actually getting food and drinks. it was 5:30 and the place was not busy. the table of us had to go into the bar and get their own drinks, as a server had not participated in them. my wife and I just made 1 drinks. I actually had to visit a hostess to request a server. it looks like someone doesn't disturb the load! will not go back soon.

We got turned away. It was Friday before St. Patrick’s Day and they said they had requested your website to stop taking table reservations but that they had no table for us.

We made a reservation via OpenTable and received an email confirmation, then drove 40 mins to Claddagh. When we arrived we were told the restaurant had been booked for 2 days, and they would not honor our reservation. I asked why OpenTable would allow me to make a reservation and was told it shouldn’t have. But I checked after we left, and OpenTable was still showing reservations available. Will this happen again? Can I trust this system or not? How are these reservations “confirmed”?

Would never go here again. I could see the corners on the processed cheese slightly melted over the dry pasta of my gourmet Mac and cheese. Please don’t eat here.

We had a large group and the server was great. We were able to enjoy a leisurely meal to celebrate the holidays without feeling rushed and it was enjoyable.
