Dillon's Local

So many great reviews and creative takes on some classics made us decide to dine here. The appetizers all looked so good, so we decided to order 4 of them: Shepard’s Pie Croquettes, Brussel Sprouts, Calamari, and Pretzel with beer cheese. All of it was just ‘eh’. Nothing to write home about. The croquettes are missing flavor, very bland. The rémolade with the calamari, however, was too spicy. Brussel sprouts had a good flavor from the truffle oil…but again they are missing something. Something to take it to the next level. We appreciate good food and tonight the execution of these creative concepts fell short.

A great spot for a casual but hearty meal. We’ve been a few times now and have always enjoyed all our food and drinks. The creole salmon and lobster blt were favorites. They also have a small room off the side that you can reserve for a bigger group on weekday nights, which worked great for family visiting town. It’s a nice location right down by the waterfront but feels separate from the tourist crowd.

I’d say this place is about 4.5 out of 5. Really awesome atmosphere of cozy Irish eatery/pub with wonderful wait staff who helped us and was attentive without being too much in your business. The clam chowder was good but it was a little too heavy on the cream and light on the seafood. That’s the main qualm I had with this place. The little neck clams were delicious and warmed us right up along with a tasty Guinness.

This place impressed me a lot! The chicken cordon bleu was very good and I enjoyed everything on my plate. We ordered shepherd’s pie croquettes, calamari, and buffalo chicken egg rolls (not pictured). All were great appetizers. The croquettes were especially unique and delicious. Great meal and great service!

Came with my 4 kiddos and husband to eat. I had the steak tips with creamy spinach and mash potatoes and it was cooked perfectly. Absolutely delicious. Kids got tenders an fries as well as grilled cheese. Good service tasty cocktails. Cute little place with good food. A must visit
