In Short
This is a perennially successful bar and restaurant that caters to office workers by day and a mix of neighbors and theatergoers by night. The beautiful, curving brass and timber bar was handmade by the owner, who also sandblasted his own windows and refitted the many antique fixtures. The walls are plasted with playbills, as well as vintage photos and prints from the hundreds of shows that have played at the Forrest Theater next door.

They have a good selection of beers on tap with a nice happy hour for beers. The food is average- canned mushrooms on the burgers. Canned enchilada sauce without much flavor on the Mexican. . Service was good and quick and staff generally pleasant. . Nice atmosphere.

Looked for days on Citysearch to find the perfect place for some family and friends to meet. Wanted a place with decent food, service, beers, ambiance, and above all, wanted to feel comfortable and relaxed. After reading many reviews, settled on Moriarty's and it did not disappoint! First I called the restaurant with a couple of questions and the girl that answered the phone was very pleasant and helpful. Explained what I was looking for in seating and she was happy to oblige. Making a reservation about an hour before our arrival was not a problem either. When we first got there I loved the feeling of the place. Cozy, not cramped. Busy, not loud. The person I spoke to on the phone greeted us, and let us know it would be a few minutes until they could seat us (that was fine, we were a tad early). When she did seat us, it was to a booth where the table moved. If you have ever sat at a booth where the table did not move, you'll understand why this is appreciated. The skinny's could move it closer and the not so skinny's were given more room. Then there was the service. Our server was great. On top of things but not always interrupting, very helpful with the menu also. Only 2 small things bothered me. She didn't give her name, and didn't smile much. But that didn't detract from the very good service she gave us. The food: tried the wings per other reviews and while the were very good, I can't say they were the BEST I've ever had. I also didn't like the very thin blue cheese "sauce" served on the side. Taste was good, but like it thicker. 2 of us ordered the burger with blue cheese and bacon and from the way it read on the menu, we expected a pile of bc crumbles on top. Nope, only the thin sauce on the side. That was the only real disappointment though. Our burgers were cooked exactly as we asked (med and mr). The salmon and shepard's pie were excellent. All in all, can't wait to go back. Won't wait for a visit from family next time!!

Ok, they have the greatest WINGS in town and they knwo it - there's no other. We go just for the wings and nothing else. That'sone place that I can say I don't need to see the menu.

Where To Sit:
Upstairs is another bar, which is an enchanting getaway during the winter months. If you're lucky, you'll get to hang out with some of the well-known actors who tread the Forrest stage as they relax after a show. Your best bet is to secure a bar stool and hold on to it--things get pretty chaotic here on a regular basis.
