Rod's Olde Irish Tavern

First, let me say, I had not been back to Rod's since they renovated the place. All I can say is WOW! What a difference from what it used to be. I did like the old place, but this place is much better. It is more updated, spacious, with more outdoor seating. My wife and I went there yesterday, August 28th. We showed up without a reservation and we were sat within 10 minutes of us arriving. We did find a seat outside. Our server, I do not remember her name, was courteous and helpful without being intrusive. My wife and I both had the crab cake sandwich special for $22. I did look around a little to see what other people were ordering. Everything did look very well-presented and tasty-looking. I had a bourbon old fashioned and she had one of the drink specials. Everything we had was very good and and well-prepared. The crab cake was bigger than I had expected. We did not have dessert. The entire bill before tip was $75. In my opinion, a little on the high side, but we will be back!

We had an early dinner at Rod's. The building is very nice after the renovation. We started with drinks, and I had a New England Clam Chower for an appetizer. Nice twist putty a puff pasty on top. Definitely recommend. For dinner, I had a Greek salad with salmon. It was nicely done, and the fish was perfect. My wife ordered a fish dish off the specials menu. It came and was very impressive but so spicy hot it was not pleasant. I like spicy food and was surprised. I don't recall a note on the menu or the waitress warning it was so hot. Anyway, my wife sent it back, and they placed the fish on a less spicy base. The 2nd try was quite good. Overall, it was a nice spot for a casual dinner and drinks.

Didn't have a great experience a year ago but went again tonight. Ordered mussels and half were not opened. Let the manager? know and he got us a new order and comped us drinks. Our entrees (pasta and an entree salad) were delicious. Having a floor manager that gives a s made all the difference. We will be back and happy to see this place well managed.

First time visiting this town and we were hungry from roadtripping. This restaurant just looked welcoming from the outside so we wandered in. Airy and lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, seated immediately, tasty flounder sandwich, clams casino, appetizer pretzels, and Arnold Palmer. Thank you! We'll be back!

Great food! So happy to see a breath of fresh air pumped into this restaurant! I have been coming here for almost 20 years and it's better than ever.
