Reviews for Jake O'Connor's Public House in Excelsior, MN
Food used to be good, but has gone downhill over the last year. Food is terrible now. Bar and waitstaff are amazing and super... nice. Service is always great. Need to fix the food!!!! Read more
Corned beef hash reciprecipe recipe review mostly. Corned beef was good. Hash was basically burned, hard and crunchy. ... Ordered 2 over easy eggs got 1 over hard. Sad pile of veggies. Horrible horrible presentation. Can't understand why thekitchen would even send food looking like that out the door. Server spent about 10 minutes ignoring 3 tables to chat with adifferent one about the paintings on the wall. Won't be coming back. Read more
Atmosphere was nice. Waiter did a good job other than he didn't know the fried chicken was boneless. We were limited to the... brunch menu today. But the smoked trout was yummy and braised beef short ribs was tasty. Read more
Upstairs is a restaurant (which we have yet to try), and downstairs is more of a pub style setting bar. Absolutely loved it!... I've been looking for a pub style bar for awhile now and I'm very glad I found this gem! Definitely an outstanding atmosphere.The food drinks are also great! Had a lamb shank with a pint of Guinness, and it was fantastic to say the least. If you'relooking for that old Irish feel, this is definitely the place to go. Read more
Took my family out for breakfast before the 4th of July parade. Ordered simple breakfast sandwiches and kids meal. 40 minutes... after we ordered, still no food. It was not busy. We were able to finally track down our waiter and he replied, “I thinkit’s the next ticket up.” At this point we said no thanks and left. We missed the parade. This isn’t the only timewe’ve experienced bad service here. No, I do not recommend. Go to Maynards for great food & excellent service. Read more
