    never bothered with the one down here, but if it's anything like the dublin branch then i support this statement with tiny tinkling bells on my two turgid thumbs!

    I once got served a burger where the mince was still frozen in the middle.

    Serves a purpose, but it ain't for me.

    It fills a space basically. As one poster said, it's perfect soakage food. Don't bother climbing the stairs. Just head for Wagamama downstairs instead. Though there are still way better places, Wagamama's is nice all the same.

    They are going for the art deco Americana diner. I found it quite funny that they see a 'Route 66' beer made in Slovakia.

    It's an overly expensive burger, fries and a drink kind of place. On the positive side, you do get American condiments(Heinz Ketchup and French's mustard).

    It's grossly overpriced, IMO. But if you're in the mood for expensive deep fried food, then it's good.

    I'm not a big fan of fast food anyway but I think this place is very over priced. Its like McDonalds with alcohol. I didn't think the cocktails were great either. If you want to splash out for a nice dinner, than go to one of the many restaurants around Paul Street. Roughly same price for much nicer food.

    I <3 the steaks. They're pretty good at cooking them the way you want them. Mmm, blue steak...

    I wouldn't go there exclusively, but you can do a lot worse.
