"The new menu seems more limited than in the past and features more traditional Irish foods than I remember. The Guinness Beef Stew was tasty and filling. We will definitely be back."

"Always enjoy the food and comfortable ambiance of O'Faolain's. While they excel on their Irish fare, they also have a nice menu that appeals to those of us across the pond. I particularly love their burger and chopped salad. Their staff are very friendly and go out of their way to make every visit enjoyable."

"This was our first trip to O'Faolains and we were glad we went. First, you can make reservations on Open Table which is nice, so we made reservations for 6:00 pm on a Sat night - it wasn't really necessary as there were lots of open tables when we arrived. It's located in a strip mall type area so doesn't look like much from the outside - plenty of parking obviously due to the location.

Food was very good, service was excellent, there was Irish music playing in the background, it was quiet enough to carry on a conversation in a normal voice, and the mgr came by to check on things - even gave us a free dessert. Definitely would recommend this place."
