Tibetan food. So good.. so quirky.
The salad dressing is obsessively good but you must adjust your salad expectations as this is old school iceberg in a wooden bowl. These are genuine Tibetan people who make everything from scratch. Try it!

This was an Irish pub before Irish pubs were cool in the US. Good for a Guinness and good pub food. A bar where there are almost no TVs. A plus in my book! Try the Blarney puff balls. And the french fries are pretty darn good. And the stew. And the soda bread.
