O'Tooles Restaurant Midlothian

Visited here recently with a friend for brunch. Super friendly waiter, great menu choices and served quickly. We stayed a while to catch up after we ate and never felt rushed to leave so they could flip the table. Mimosas, Bloody Mary, eggs breakfast. ❤️

It started out with the hostess at the front who was more interested in getting take out food than seating 9 customers waiting at the door. We were finally seated and got great service from our waitress. I ordered the chopped sirloin with onions and gravy with a baked potato and onion rings. The potato was a little hard in the middle from being under cooked. The sirloin while ordered medium well was burnt to crisp and was impossible to even cut with a fork. The taste was terrible. The onion rings were totally cold. I informed the waitress of these things and she only offered to get some more onion rings. I accepted her offer and the replacement ring were delicious.

O'Tooles hits the mark for an Irish pub. The menu is quite extensive so everyone in your party will be able to find something that suits their tastes. I decided to get a patty melt with steak fries.

Overall, this experience was the worst one I've had. Walking in, the hostess asked "how many." No time for smiles or kindness. You could tell she didn't want to be there. After waiting for longer than we should have, looking at a whole row of open tables and what appeared to be staffing issues, we were taken to our table. The hostess set our stuff down and walked away, not saying anything. This should've been the point that I left. The waitress came up and was nice. You could tell that she cared about her job. My food came out and was BLAND. The baked potato was overcooked or in the warmer too long. The chopped sirloin, aka hamburge

I ordered the mushroom swiss burger and all I can say is WOW. I let the waiter know how great the burger is… he said there was a new cook and he’d let them now. Seriously y’all. Perfect amount of cheese, spectacularly seasoned burger. Probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had at a restaurant.
