Mr Dooleys

This is by far the worst food I ever come across in the south shore. went there a couple of weeks a go for dinner, and I ordered the cinco de mayo special they were pushing featuring "tuna tacos.. with authentic mexican rice" .
When the "tacos" arrived, it looked like something out of an elementary school cafeteria. Two soggy flour tortillas with a fishy smelling cube of tuna, a beat-up bland tomato and they put cabbage on the side (you read that right). There was no avocado, no herbs, no lemon to hide the bad fish flavor, not even salt...nothing else really. . just bland tomatoes, old tuna, and cabbage on a soggy tortilla.
Of course there was the rice on the side, but it was inedible. .. it tasted like a grade school kids attempt to cook. I put some ketchup on it because I was so hungry and had to be able to eat something.
I actually really felt bad for all the produce wasted to make that food.. and I felt terrible for the tuna that was killed and ended up on my plate. The food they serve at Mr. Dooly's is not only an insult to the residents of our town, but an insult to the animals and produce harvested. There are rumors around that they are just serving Sysco foodservice food. It would make sense if it's true.

My sister and I stopped in here for lunch and a beer after a day of bridesmaid dress shopping. Everything was perfectly fine- the bartender was nice, the beer selection was good, etc.- but I fully recognize that we went at a totally off time. The place was pretty empty- so I can't comment on the noise- and the food was just OK.

All in all, like most reviewers, I prefer the Boston location. That being said, it's not like Cohasset is particularly jumping with casual places to just grab a beer, and since my sister and her fiance live in Cohasset I'll assume that I'll come here a few more times and update my review then!  It's a fine place to grab a beer and some apps, though I'm sure the place gets super busy and crowded since there's nothing else like it around!

Probably made a mistake coming here Weds night before Thanksgiving - being the only bar in town, it was jammed.  That in itself would not be a problem but the noise level was DEAFENING.  And it wasn't rowdy patrons, this is Cohasset after all - it looks to me like there is some kind of very hard plaster on the high ceiling, couple it with a wood floor and that's what happens.

Only a few tables in the place, but our food was fine - the pub sampler would feed four people, fish and chips also good.  Typical pub grub menu, with more Irish stuff than  usual (Shepherd's Pie, Bangers and Mash, etc). Service was very good too..

But we couldn't wait to get out of there before we had ear damage.
