    We were sat in a traffic area and even after moving our table a foot or so to the side, patrons kept running into me and my chair. Plus the table was unbalanced to the point where drinks sloshed. It took over 45 mins for us to get appetizers and well over an hour and half to get dinner. And no one finished their meal because none of it had any flavor. We had a miserable time…

    We had such an incredible meal! Everything was spot on! First time trying the Reuben rolls and I guess I’m now a fan of sauerkraut! Nanas sausage rolls were perfect as always! My husband had the corned beef and cabbage and he ate his entire meal! I had the seasonal salad with blackened shrimp! The strawberries were so fresh and sweet! And the candied nuts were so delicious! Our server, Tanya, was attentive and efficient! She handled us like a pro! We will definitely be back to play trivia!

    Great fun. We had 14 people going for lunch for our book club of a bunch of ladies. We picked this restaurant because our book took place in Ireland. Two of us reserved a table each. The two that reserved tables arrived early to make sure everything was good and they had both tables reserved next to each other which was perfect. Waiter, Brian was great with our orders and patiently waiting for the people who showed up late to order. He was also a lot of fun to deal with. Would like to visit again.

    Colin our server was the best. Very attentive, friendly just a great guy. We started with Nana's sausage rolls. They are really good. My wife had the Reuben and for me it was the Guinness beef stew. We enjoyed both very much. Highly recommend both. My wife says Culhane's Reuben is the best she has ever had. On other visits we have had Shepherds Pie, Dirty Slapper Burger and Bangers and Mash. All were so good. I think Bangers and Mash is our favorite. I know Bangers and Mash is our favorite. We got an order to take home. Everything at Culhane's is top notch. From the Staff to the food it doesn't get any better than Culhane's.

    I have never been to a restaurant where one persons food is delivered, and not everyone's together without any explanation. My date had the Irish stew, not being Irish not exactly sure how it should look , but I don't think it should look like it came out of a food processor. I had the shrimp and grits and that was excellent.

    We are sorry to hear about your food not coming out the same time. We will address with our team today. The Guinness Stew is also available in a rustic crock (smaller portion). Thank you for sharing feedback. We strive for excellence daily. Happy to hear you enjoyed the Shrimp and Grits. MJ (owner)

    We went for Fathers Day dinner. It was me, my husband, our 5 kids & my son’s girlfriend. We had reservations for 6:15 & sat right away. We ordered drinks, the big pretzel, Reuben rolls & 10 wings to start. (Side note: still no cherry in my Shirley Temple). The pretzel was good, but the wings came “naked” which we prefer the sauce on prior. They were still good & crispy & the Buffalo sauce was good. My husband said the Reuben rolls were good. I ordered the Dingle Fish Pie, my husband got the cheesesteak, kids: (2) lamb sliders, brisket stacker, seafood wrap, & cheeseburger. My son’s girlfriend got the 1/2 pasta Mac & cheese. Everything was delicious!

    First time dining here. Brought right to our table upon arrival. The place is huge! Waitress was very attentive & friendly. Bathrooms were spacious & beautiful. Started to get busier as we were eating. Got wings as an appetizer. They were brought out quickly & were delicious. Both of us opted for the Mac & cheese, I added grilled shrimp & my husband added fried chicken. My meal was delicious, my husband said the chicken was a little dry but the pasta was good. He also had Kilkenny beer & a margarita. He said both were really good, just too much ice in the margarita. I had Shirley Temples which weren’t terrible, but no cherries added & a little in the soda side. We decided then & there to come back on Father’s Day for dinner with the kids. Definitely recommend! Great atmosphere, service & food.

    I will be going back soon! I had my doubts about service as no one came to the hostess station for a few minutes, but from the time she showed up until we left the service was over the top. My friend had already ordered a pretzel and offered my grandson and I a piece. I usually don’t like ordering pretzels as they disappoint me. These were fantastic, I had to order another one for my grandson (7 year old picky eater). I had the Reuben which was delicious. The corned beef is shredded and there is a generous portion of everything. My friend ordered the Shepherd’s pie after being provided a sample. He said the taste was subtly sweet and delicious. My grandson’s kids hamburger was large enough to satisfy an adult’s appetite. Can’t wait to try the shepherd’s pie on my next visit.

    We had a party of 13, which I realize is a large party, but we sat a lot without anyone checking on us. Drink refills were slow, and my husband found a piece of plastic that looked like it broke off of a kitchen utensil in his brisket and grits. We alerted the waitress right away and she brought out a new brisket and grits, but normally a restaurant would take something off the bill for that and our waitress did not offer anything off surprisingly! Food was good, ambiance was good, service wasn’t so great!

    We had reservation for 6 people at 11:15 on Mother's Day. Arrived on time and the place was slammed busy. Had to wait 15 mins for someone to even check us in at the hostess desk. Another 20 minute wait until a table opened up. Lots of others waiting as well. Yes, it was Mother's day but they were severely understaffed and overbooked. After being seated, we waited over an hour and a half for our food. We had two children in our group so this was certainly not expected or we never would have come here. Our server was of course very apologetic and was doing the best she could given the short staffing. I will say that every other time we've visited Culhane's Southside it has been excellent. Unfortunately on Mother's Day they fell very short of their usual good service.
