I was tempted to try a Boxty's but figure I'll order what I know since I have not had an Irish boxty before. Their corned beef and cabbage entree was delish although on the bottom of the plate was a...

Love the atmosphere and food!The Rancho San Diego pub is a real Irish pub that was "shipped over here." Of course the Guiness is great and so are the corned-beef tacos.
