  It has been some time since I’ve had dinner here, but stopped coming here when they stopped offering Corned Beef on Sundays. Well, on St. Patrick’s Day, I called to see if they were having the Corned Beef (as I assumed they were), and yes, they were, and for $10.95! What a bargain. On top of that, if you check in with Yelp, you get a FREE dessert. Upon walking in, I noticed 2 things about the place:1- They took away a lot of the bears. The place used to be covered in bears, from stuffed ones, to statues, to wall decorations. Some customers thought it was rather creepy, and I thought it made the place look too dark. I’m sure it was meant to be cute, but I’m glad they got rid of them.2- They added a new light color coat of paint, took out the carpets, put in wood floors, and turned up the lights. It was nice and cheery inside, and made the place look more contemporary. The corned beef special was excellent. It came with 5 chunks of meat, probably about 6-8 ounces worth, a quarter head of steamed cabbage, 2 red potatoes and a huge slice of their Texas garlic bread. No carrots, but for me, that’s ok. The meat just fell apart, and had great flavor. I forgot how much I missed their Corned Beef. Our server was friendly, but unlike past experiences, didn’t really check up on us. The busboy did more work, getting refills and clearing our table.After dinner, we reminded our server that we still had a free dessert coming. She said any dessert $3.95 or lower was on the house. I was actually full and passed on it, but she said she could pack it to go, so I took home some pudding.I’m glad I came back here for St. Patrick’s Day. I forgot how comforting the food was. They have breakfast, early bird dinners (ends at 4:30 pm) and weekday lunch specials. Plenty of parking.Four solid stars for the food and service. callmemochelle.com
