I had eaten here a few years ago when they first opened, but didn't remember too much about it other than cheap Irish Car Bombs. It's in an odd location at a strip-mall that's tucked around the corner from a decent Mexican restaurant and a sub-shop. \n\nI'm not sure if they're going for the feel of a mineshaft, but it was ridiculously cold in there. I'm all for beating the heat, but to go from 104 to 62 degrees was a little much for me. \n\nI could talk more about the ambiance, which is mildly interesting, but the food is the most important thing. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala (Red curry) which had chicken, potato, and the red curry sauce. The chicken was dry, as well as the curry sauce. Mere days before I'd had Chicken red curry at George and Dragon in Phoenix, which was really good. The pasty was not on par with that. I have to say it was one of the more bland curries I've ever had. Perhaps I should have tried something like their Bangers and Mash or Shepherd's Pie.\n\nAs for the price, everything on the menu should cost about 20% less. I think Cornish Pasty is WAY overpriced. Some of the more traditional stuff is $7 to $7.50, while everything else is $8-9. Beer is also a little on the pricey side (20 ounce drafts are $5-6) for this kind of place. Two Boddington's and a pasty were $18 before tax and tip. So if you absolutely have to have a pasty then I guess this is your place, otherwise there are some other fabulous places nearby that won't break the bank.
