Likissa Hunde, an Ethiopian-born educator and economist who emigrated to the United States in 2009, purchased the Gloucester City, NJ corner bar from Irene Delimaris in July of 2015, and recently finished freshening up the nearly century-old institution by evolving the name to O’Donnell’s Restaurant & Bar, and bringing in New York-based Chef Darryl Harmon to conceive a cutting-edge new menu while tapping former Twenty Manning Grill sous chef Issaka Fofana to run the kitchen.

They aren't open. Just a dark building.
Made reservations for 3 people including my 98 year old Mother in -law.She had very good memories of this place in the day,very disappointed. Websight had full menu. Arrived at restaurant help her get in and found just a bar atmosphere and only sandwich menu.Had to leave and find another place. The smell going into the building was sun baked garbage. Very appetizing 😑
Well it seems that O'Donnells does not check to see if they have any reservations. When the 5 of us pulled into the parking lot we thought it was strange there were no cars there. There was a note on the door saying a paint party was cancelled and they were closed. I've gone there many times over the past 40 years and have never come across this . Not sure if we will go back. Ignore the rating as we didn't get in the door.
The wings were very good. They stated the menu will be changing shortly so I don't know what we'll stay and we'll go. Some of the things we tried to order we're not available as they said they're not on the new menu they're making.
