Burke's Public House

Consistently good food and great service.Friday night fish fry's are the best with fresh cod. However during the week, the Italian beef sandwich is the best. Great aus jus and the best giardana makes for Italian Beef sandwiches that puts Portillo's to shame. Absolutely try that - and add aMartini with the best blue cheese stuffed olives are outstanding. No where else better.

Once we got service, our server he was great! At receipt of our bill, he gave us a complementary shot for our wait at the beginning. Place was pretty full for Sunday, you can tell they have a regular crowd. Vibe is Irish eclectic. Food was reasonably priced and huge portions! I took half my salad home and helped my husband finish his waffle fries, which were crispy and delicious with in house ranch. Burke's Chopped salad includes grilled chicken, bacon, avocado, tomato, blue cheese and onion with a house vinaigrette. Served with grilled pita points. Chicago Style Italian beef was served with waffle fries, aus jus, sweet peppers and hot giardiniera, a garlic and ground pepper aioli and mayo slaw.

This was the Spinach Artichoke Dip that is $11. Now I believe it was Brandon but he was nice to reimburse the item. Brandon stated that the dip is pre packaged so if you ordering to go please check your items before leaving.

My friend goes here all the time with his friends and they love it. Haven't dined in there yet but did takeout last night. Mom wanted the Salmon BLT. She approved. Nice piece of salmon on a nicely toasted bread. Bacon was good. Had a piece myself. I'm not a fish guy so couldn't give you an opinion on that but again. Mom liked it. I had the Italian beef. It was good. Not the best but probably would get it again. Maybe it was an off day for that batch. I've seen other pictures of beefs on here and they looked better. Portion size for the price could have been more. For appetizers I had the chicken fingers. That for the price was well worth it. Great taste. All items came with waffle fries. Very good. Mom had the spinach artichoke dip with what I think was homemade pita bread. She approved. Overall a great place. It had a great atmosphere and seen what I think were regular customers. Gotta join with my friends next time.

Burke's is a great place to go if you want to watch a game with friends or have a drink together and catch up. Although it took about 10 minutes to get a table, it was a busy evening for a Friday night. Which I don't mind necessarily, everyone was having a good time it seemed. I didn't see many people ordering food, but my partner and I greatly enjoyed our meals. I got the Chipotle Chicken Wrap and he got the Burke and Bacon Burger. Waffle fries are an instant hit, and the garlic sauce they provide on the side is great for anything. I ordered a Maplewood Son of Juice and he got a Moscow mule. The mule could've had fresh ginger beer, but no complaints otherwise. Highly recommend this place if you're in the area!

Best neighborhood bar in the neighborhood! The staff and regular customers are terrific. Never too loud and never too quiet either! The patio on Balmoral Ave is very large. Drop bye and say H E L L O! The food is enough for two. And the burgers are cooked to what ever temperature like! How's that for service?

Officially a neighborhood gem. The fish fry is outstanding. Tender, juicy fish (cod? YUM) light breading, not greasy or heavy - and a very good price.The waffle fries are a favorite here - how do they do them so consistently perfect! Crunchy, tender on the inside, so good!!! Damn, I love them.I had the Buffalo Chicken salad, which I enjoyed. Honestly, though, it could have half the amount of lettuce and still be a fine salad. It was a LOT of lettuce! The chicken was tasty and tangy with delicious Cayenne pepper Buffalo seasoning. Gerry, fantastic staff member, put a smile on both our faces after a trying week with his friendliness, enthusiasm and beautiful smiling face! Thank you, friend! And the owner is always just great - never fails to great us warmly and with shots in hand! We appreciate you!

Local, neighborhood place, friendly. Food is average for bar food, service is typical for a laid back bar. Spring/Summer/Fall good outdoor space.

On a Sunday, our group was struggling to find a place to watch the Buffalo Bills. Called ahead to this place and they said they could accommodate, no problem. Showed up and they were very kind about pushing a couple tables together for us in sight of a TV.The food... not completely inspiring. Got the chipotle chicken wrap based on positive reviews and it was pretty sogged out. The ingredients in interior were mushy and hard to distinguish flavors. The waffle fries were ok but would've liked them crispier. Table got nachos to share which were ok, but the chips tasted stale.However the stellar service is really what sold this place for us. Our waitress was super attentive, always checking on us, and even went to find one of our group outside when they were out of the beer he ordered. At the end, a guy (I think the manager?) gave us a celebratory rounds of shots for Bills winning the game.Would definitely come back based on the awesome service we had, and try some different food!

Burke's is a nice, casual pub that has a solid food too! Their Italian beef sandwich was delicious and my friend liked his burger. I'd be happy to go back here.
