Cleveland Eats: Sully's Irish Pub, Medina

Normally, I stay the heck out of Irish pubs. Not because I'm a self-hating Northern Irishman (I might be one of those, that's not why I don't go to Irish pubs) but because the food is usually just typical bar fare with some "oirish" stuff thrown in. Thusly, it's almost always a disappointment.

My trip to Sully's in Medina was no different. It's a nice place on a Saturday lunchtime, and I'll admit that it looks like home. The music was of the touristy-rebel variety. I'm not quite sure what that would be like if you were an American in a touristy Yank Eatery in Ireland - probably 30's prohibition bar music playing all the time, only more annoying.

I ordered a 1/3 pound burger with fries, and got what I ordered. It was fairly tasteless - but do consider my previous entries around burgers, and the fact that I'm aware that I may not actually know what a good one tastes like.

I was disappointed with the food, and the price - it was at least a couple of bucks more than I thought it was worth.

I will end up going back and trying something else, and as such, I won't be scoring Sully's today. But I always feel vaguely uncomfortable in this kind of Irishy place, not least because it's touristy, and for about a dozen other reasons too.

I hear good things about Sullivan's in Cleveland though....
