O'Brien's Irish Pub & Restaurant

O'Brien's Irish Pub & Restaurant (Santa Monica, Calif.)
There's a wee bit o' the Irish at this jolly, noisy place, where you can get a pint of beer, cocktails and good pub grub. Try the traditional bangers and mash, Guinness pie, fish 'n' chips and shepherd's pie or a Kobe-style burger or rare roast beef sandwich. Live music makes for a raucous scene every night, but you can escape to the nice patio if it gets too crowded. See more details.
